centrifuged at 15,000 rpm for 15 min and
subsequently filtered through 0.45 mm filters. A liquid–liquid
extraction was carried out using acetonitrile and NaCl, which were
used in equal volumes. GC–MS was performed with a 7890A mass
spectrometer (Agilent Technologies). The injection volume for analysis
was 1 mL The analytical column HP-5MS (30 mm × 0.25 mm, 0.25
μm) was used. The initial column temperature range was 80 °C
for 1.0 min, then it increased linearly at 5 °C/min to 250 °C
and held for 5 min. The helium carrier flow rate was 1 mL/min. The
chromatograph was equipped with a reverse-phase glacial acetic acid,
methanol, and ultra-pure water. Degradation products were identified
by mass spectra and their fragmentation pattern.
