Abstract

S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) is the most important S-nitrosothiol in vivo, which could affect the quality of meat by participating in calcium release, glucose metabolism, proteolysis and apoptosis, therefore may potentially serve as a marker for meat freshness. In this work, a solid-phase extraction (SPE) monolithic spin column modified with gold nanoparticles was prepared for GSNO extraction. The optimized SPE-LC-MS/MS method for GSNO quantification displays low limit of detection (0.01 nM), good precision (RSD < 15 %) and acceptable recovery (> 77.7 %). Furthermore, this approach has been applied to monitor GSNO levels in beef and pork stored at −20 °C for different days, showing that endogenous GSNO level increases during prolonged storage and could be employed as a marker to evaluate the freshness of ice stored meat. Additionally, the monolithic spin column remains in good quality after a half-year storage, which is promising to develop into commercial enrichment kit for endogenous GSNO analysis.
