Hplc/Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometric Analysis of the Heterocyclic Aromatic Amine Carcinogen 2-Amino-1-methyl-6-phenylimidazo[4,5-b]pyridine in Human Milk
Abstract
A new procedure has been developed for the extraction of 2-amino-1-methyl-6-phenyl-imidazo[4,5-b]pyridine (PhIP) and other heterocyclic aromatic amines from human breast milk samples. Extracts were analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization/tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC/ESI-MS/MS) with selective reaction monitoring detection. Tandem ESI-MS/MS detection provides much improved sensitivity and specificity, compared …
