Analysis of oligosaccharides from Panax ginseng by using solid-phase permethylation method combined with UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap/MS

ConclusionA solid-phase methylation method combined with LC-MS/MS was successfully applied to analyze the oligosaccharides in ginseng extracts, which provides the possibility for holistic evaluation of ginseng oligosaccharides. The comparison of oligosaccharide composition of white ginseng and red ginseng could help to understand the differences in pharmacological activities between these two kinds of ginseng samples from the perspective of glycans.
