Analyses were conducted using an Agilent 6890 GC system coupled to an Agilent 5975 inert quadrupole mass spectrometer (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, US) equipped with a Gerstel Thermo Desorption System (TDS2) and a CIS-4 PTV inlet Cooling Injector System (Gerstel, Müllheim an der Ruhr, Germany). The desorption temperature program was as follows: the temperature was kept at 35 °C for 0.1 min, and then ramped at 60 °C/min to 220 °C and held for 5 min. The temperature of the CIS-4 PTV injector, with Tenax TA inlet liner, was held at −35 °C using liquid nitrogen for the total desorption time, and was then raised to 260 °C at a rate of 10 °C/s and held for 4 min. The solvent vent mode was used to transfer the sample to the analytical column. A 50 m × 0.25 mm J&W CPWax-57CB column and a film thickness of 0.20 µm (Agilent, Santa Clara, CA, USA) were used; the carrier gas was He at a 1 mL/min flow rate. The oven temperature program was as follows: 35 °C for 4 min and then raised to 220 °C at 2.5 °C/min (held for 15 min). The quadrupole, source and transfer line temperatures were maintained at 150 °C, 230 °C and 280 °C, respectively. The electron ionisation mass spectra were recorded in the full-scan mode at 70 eV with the electron energy in the range of 29 to 300 m/z.

The fatty acid composition in blue honeysuckle seed oil was analyzed using GC–MS. To increase the volatility of the seed oil, pre-column derivatization was used. In a 10 mL screw-cap glass tube, 30 µL of seed oil was dissolved in a mixed solution of n-hexane and benzene (1:1, v/v) and gently shaken. Then, 2 mL of 0.5 mol/L KOH in methanol was added, and the mixture was allowed to stand for 30 min. Subsequently, 5 mL of distilled water was added to separate the organic phase solution (n-hexane), causing it to rise to the upper layer of the tube.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
