Pharmaceutical drugs like Sildenafil are illegally added to functional food such as nutritional supplements and herbal remedies to deliver drugs without a regular prescription to consumers. Rapid screening of illegal additives is desirable for the public security department. The seized samples are often large in number and unknown in composition; methods are needed for qual. screening of unknown samples. Here, a new approach is presented based on atm. pressure solids anal. probe (ASAP) coupled with single-quadrupole mass spectrometer to rapidly screen 42 common illegal additives in six categories of functional food. The ASAP-MS method could be applied to solid or liquid sample anal. with a very simple pre-treatment and no LC chromatog. separation, using a home-built library; the identification of suspicious additives could be obtained rapidly. More importantly, the approach is sensitive enough for complex matrix samples like coffee samples. 21 batches of seized unknown samples were tested by the ASAP-MS, and the pos. results were confirmed by LC-MS/MS(QQQ), indicating that the ASAP-MS method is effective and reliable. The ASAP-MS with home-built library is a promising method for rapid screening of illegal additives in functional food, which could be widely used in the grassroots police station that lack professional laboratory environment.
