Analytical methods for the determination and mass spectrometric confirmation of 1-methyl-2-nitroso-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline-3-carboxylic acid and 2-nitroso-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline-3-carboxylic acid in foods

A method is described for the determination of the two title compounds that is based on: (a) extraction of the acidified sample with methanol, (b) removal of fats aid lipids by partitioning of the extract with n-hexane, (c) clean-up on an acidic alumina extraction cartridge, and (d) determination by a post-HPLC column chemical denitrosation-thermal energy analyser (TEA) technique or by conventional HPLC-TEA analysis after derivatization of the compounds with diazomethane. Confirmation was carried out by HPLC-mass spectrometry of the free acids and also by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry of the methyl esters. The formation of both 1-methyl-2-nitroso-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline-3-carboxylic acid and 2-nitroso-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-beta-carboline-3-carboxylic acid in nitrosated samples of several Japanese and Chinese pickled vegetables, one soy sauce, and two cheeses was demonstrated.
