This paper,describes the development of a rapid method with ultraperformance liquid chromatography-triple-quadrupole mass spectrometry that can specifically measure group-specific fingerprints from plant extracts for the following polyphenol groups: (1) ellagitannins, (2) gallic acid derivatives, (3) quinic acid derivatives, (4) quercetin-based flavonol glycosides, (5) kaempferol-based flavonol glycosides, and (6) myricetin-based flavonol glycosides. In addition, the method records simultaneously diode array and full scan mass spectrometry data that can be used to later characterize and quantify the main individual polyphenols if necessary: All of this is achieved within the 10 min period of analysis, which makes the presented Method a significant addition to the,chemistry tools,currently available for the rapid,analysis of complex polyphenol mixtures from plant extracts.
