PG - 464142 LID - S0021-9673(23)00368-0 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.chroma.2023.464142 [doi] AB - Surface-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (SALDI-TOF MS) is an effective method for detecting of low-mass molecules. In this study, two-dimensional boron nanosheets (2DBs) were fabricated through thermal oxidation etching and coupling liquid exfoliation technologies, and applied as a matrix and selective sorbent for detecting cis-diol compounds by SALDI-TOF MS. The outstanding nanostructure and boric acid active sites of 2DBs endow them with sensitivity for cis-diol compound detection, excellent selectivity, and low background interference for complex samples. The specific in-situ enrichment faculty of the 2DBs as a matrix was investigated by SALDI-TOF MS using glucose, arabinose, and lactose as model analytes. In the presence of 100 -fold more interfering substances, the 2DBs showed high selectivity against cis-diol compounds, and exhibited a better sensitivity and a reduced limit of detection through enrichment treatment than graphene oxide matrices. The linearity, limit of detection (LOD), reproducibility, and accuracy of the method were evaluated under optimized conditions. The results showed that the linear relationships of six saccharides remained in the range of 0.05-0.6 mM with a correlation coefficient r >/=0.98. The LODs of six saccharides were 1 nM (glucose, lactose, mannose, fructose) and 10 nM (galactose, arabinose). Sample-to-sample (n = 6) with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 3.2% to 8.1% were observed. Recoveries (n = 5) of 87.9-104.6% were obtained at three spiked levels in the milk samples. The proposed strategy promoted the development of a matrix for use with SALDI-TOF MS detection, in which the UV absorption properties and enrichment capabilities of 2DBs were combined.
