Description
Bile acid high-flux detection method based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry and application thereof Technical Field The invention belongs to the field of analysis and detection, and particularly relates to a bile acid high-flux detection method based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry and application thereof. Background The bile acid is used as a core product of cholesterol metabolism, is not only a key medium for emulsifying fat, regulating fat and fat-soluble vitamins, transporting and distributing, but also a signal molecule participating in glycolipid metabolism regulation through FXR, TGR5 and other receptor channels, and has important physiological functions. Bile acid is used as main component of bile, its subtype composition and dynamic balance are directly related to liver and intestine circulation function, and specific change is shown in pathological processes such as non-alcoholic fatty liver, cholestasis of gestation (ICP) and inflammatory bowel disease. In the medical research direction, the accurate qualitative and quantitative analysis of bile acid substances has practical significance for related disease research, liver function evaluation and related drug metabolism and treatment effect examination. Accurate detection of bile acid components is therefore of great importance in medical research and disease diagnosis in the liver and digestive metabolic directions. Bile acids can be structurally classified into free and bound types. Free bile acids include cholic acid, deoxycholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, and lithocholic acid. The conjugated bile acid is the conjugate product of free bile acid and glycine or taurine, and mainly comprises glycocholic acid, glycochenodeoxycholic acid, taurocholic acid, taurochenodeoxycholic acid and the like. Bile acids can be classified into primary bile acids, secondary bile acids and tertiary bile acids according to their source. Bile acids synthesized directly from cholesterol in hepatocytes are referred to as primary bile acids, and include cholic acid, chenodeoxycholic acid, and their binding products with glycine or taurine. The primary bile acid is acted by bacteria in intestinal tract, and the bile acid generated after 7 alpha-hydroxy deoxidation is called secondary bile acid, and the secondary bile acid mainly comprises deoxycholic acid and lithocholic acid and the combination product generated by combining the deoxycholic acid and glycine or taurine. The tertiary bile acid is the metabolite of reabsorption secondary bile acid in liver and intestinal tract, including sulfocholic acid and ursodeoxycholic acid, etc. Due to limitations in detection technology, current clinical detection is focused on total bile acid or limited species bile acid analysis (typically < 30). The problem of poor quantitative qualitative reliability exists in the detection of bile acid by a kit enzyme circulation method and a high performance liquid chromatography method, meanwhile, more complex steps such as derivatization are involved in the pretreatment process of the sample, the requirements on the reaction temperature and the derivatization reagent are higher, the detection flux is difficult to promote, the sample reproducibility is relatively poor, the experimental cost is high, and the two detection means have larger limitations in the clinical application process and the like. Meanwhile, the samples involved in bile acid detection are often biological samples such as blood plasma, intestinal contents, liver tissues and the like, the matrix of the samples is complex, and the extracting solution obtained after the conventional extraction method is used for processing contains inorganic salt and other impurities, so that the baseline noise of the sample detection, the response value of the compounds and the stability of the method are adversely affected, and the chromatographic column and the ion source needle are greatly damaged. The solid-phase microextraction column with the C18 filler is used for purifying the sample extracting solution, so that the purifying method is stable and efficient, impurities such as hydrophilic salt and the like can be effectively removed in a good recovery rate of substances with weaker polarities, and the solid-phase microextraction column is matched with a matched solid-phase microextraction device, so that high-flux sample treatment can be realized, compared with the traditional method, the method has the advantages that the treatment time is not additionally increased, the structure of the compound is not changed, the data quality is improved, the experimental efficiency is ensured, the timeliness is ensured for mass sample extraction, and the degradation of bile acid substances in the pretreatment process can be avoided. The ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method has the advantages of high qualitative ac
