Abstract
Direct analysis in real time (DART) represents a new generation of ionization techniques that are used to rapidly ionize small molecules under ambient environments. The combination of DART with various mass spectrometry (MS) instruments allows analyzing multiple plant materials, including traditional Chinese herbal medicines (TCHMs), under simple or no sample treatment conditions. This review discussed the DART principles, including devices, ionization mechanisms, and operation parameters. Typical spectra detected by DART-MS were exhibited and discussed. Numerous applications of DART-MS in the fields of plant material and TCHM analysis were reviewed, including compound identification, biomarker discovery, fingerprinting analysis, and quantification analysis. Besides, modifications and improvements of DART-MS, such as hyphenated application with other separation methods, laser-based desorption techniques, and online sampling configuration, were summarized as well.

Abstract
Ambient mass spectrometry (AMS) has grown as a group of advanced analytical techniques that allow for the direct sampling and ionization of the analytes in different statuses from their native environment without or with minimum sample pretreatments. As a significant category of AMS, plasma-based AMS has gained a lot of attention due to its features that allow rapid, real-time, high-throughput, in vivo, and in situ analysis in various fields, including bioanalysis, pharmaceuticals, forensics, food safety, and mass spectrometry imaging. Tens of new methods have been developed since the introduction of the first plasma-based AMS technique direct analysis in real-time. This review first provides a comprehensive overview of the established plasma-based AMS techniques from their ion source configurations, mechanisms, and developments. Then, the progress of the representative applications in various scientific fields in the past 4 years (January 2017 to January 2021) has been summarized. Finally, we discuss the current challenges and propose the future directions of plasma-based AMS from our perspective.

Abstract
Tibial dyschondroplasia (TD) is a common skeletal disease occurred in growth plate of fast-growing broilers. Thiram is a sort of chemical used for pesticide and fungicide. The excessive use of thiram increased the threat to animal and human health. In this study, we aimed to investigate the therapeutic mechanism of chlorogenic acid (CGA) on thiram-induced tibial dyschondroplasia. Broiler chickens were divided into three different groups, e.g., control, TD, and CGA. CGA was administrated after the induction of TD from 4th day to 7th day. Biochemical analysis was performed to detect the content of calcium (Ca) and phosphorus (P). Histological changes and degradation of extracellular matrix were observed through hematoxylin-eosin (H & E) and Masson staining. To further determine the mechanism, TUNEL staining and western blot were also performed to detect the apoptosis changes in growth plate of all groups. The results showed the disproportionation of Ca and P content and upregulation of apoptosis during the development of TD. But, after the administration of CGA, the ratio of Ca:P was upregulated, and the apoptosis was also downregulated. The current study shows the toxic effect of thiram on chickens and suggests that CGA is associated with a mechanism that plays a significant role in apoptosis induced by thiram in poultry industry.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Lonicerae Japonicae Flos (LJF) and Lonicerae Flos (LF) belong to different genera of Caprifoliaceae. They have been historically utilised as herbal medicine to treat various diseases. However, the comprehensive assessment of them still remains a challenge. OBJECTIVE To develop a comprehensive method of ultra-fast liquid chromatography-tandem triple quadrupole mass spectrometry (UFLC-QTRAP-MS/MS) coupled with multivariate statistical analysis for the quality evaluation and reveal differential components of LJF and LF. METHODOLOGY A validated UFLC-QTRAP-MS/MS method was established for simultaneous determination of 50 constituents, including 12 organic acids, 12 flavonoids, 6 iridoids, 3 saponins, 13 amino acids and 4 nucleosides. The obtained data were employed to multivariate statistical analysis. Principal component anlysis (PCA) and partial least squares determinant analysis (PLS-DA) were performed to classify and reveal differential components of samples; grey relational analysis (GRA) was introduced to assess the samples according to the contents of 50 constituents by calculating the relative correlation degree of each sample. RESULTS Fifty constituents were simultaneously determined of LJF and LF. Based on obtained data, PCA and PLS-DA were easy to distinguish samples and the classification of the samples was related to 11 chemical constituents. GRA implied the quality of LJF was better, and that the flower buds were superior to the flowers. Moreover, organic acids are the main components of samples. CONCLUSION This study not only established a method of simultaneous determination of multiple bioactive constituents in LJF and LF, but provided comprehensive information on the quality control of them. The developed method is conducive to distinguish orthologues or paralogues of them, and supply the support for "heterologous effects".

Abstract
Chlorogenic acids (CGAs), a group of hydroxycinnamates, are generally abundant in everyday foods and beverages, most prominently in certain coffee drinks. Among them, the chlorogenic acid (CGA), also termed as 5-O-caffeoylquinic acid (5-CQA), is one of the most abundant, highly functional polyphenolic compounds in the human diet. The evidence of its health benefits obtained from clinical studies, as well as basic research, indicates an inverse correlation between 5-CQA consumption and a lower risk of metabolic syndromes and chronic diseases. This review focuses on the beneficial properties for health and mechanisms of action of 5-CQA, starting with its history, isomers, dietary sources, processing effects, preparation methods, pharmacological safety evaluation, and bioavailability. It also provides the possible molecular mechanistic bases to explain the health beneficial effects of 5-CQA including neuroprotective, cardiovascular protective, gastrointestinal protective, renoprotective, hepatoprotective, glucose and lipid metabolism regulatory, and anticarcinogenic effects. The information summarized here could aid in the basic and clinical research on 5-CQA as a natural dietary additive, potential drug candidate, as well as a natural health promoter.

PLoS One 2020; 15:e0237881.

Abstract
At present, the identification of honeysuckle aroma depends on experienced tasters, which results in inconsistencies due to human error. The key odorants have the potential to distinguish the different species and evaluate the quality of honeysuckle. Hence, in this study, a more scientific approach was applied to distinguish various honeysuckles. The volatile compounds of different species and parts of honeysuckle were separately extracted by headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and solvent assisted flavor evaporation (SAFE). Compounds with greater volatility such as aldehydes, limonene, γ-terpinene, and terpinolene were preferentially extracted by HS-SPME. As a complementary extraction method to HS-SPME, SAFE was found to recover comparatively more polar compounds such as eugenol, decanoic acid, and vanillin. Subsequently, key odorants with the highest flavour dilution (FD) factors were detected by aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA). These were benzaldehyde, 4-ethylphenol, decanoic acid, vanillin, 3-methyl-2-butenal, and β-ionone in honeysuckle flowers and γ-octalactone, 4-ethyl phenol, and vanillin in honeysuckle stem. Finally, principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted to analyze not only the key odorants of species and parts of honeysuckle but also their different origins. The results of PCA suggested that the species of honeysuckle contributed much more to variations in aroma rather than their origins. In conclusion, the application of the key odorants combined with PCA was demonstrated as a valid approach to differentiate species, origins, and parts of honeysuckle.

Abstract
Nowadays, the research for secondary metabolites with health promoting effects in countering or slowing-down chronic and degenerative diseases (e.g. cancer, cardiovascular, and neurodegenerative diseases) identify phenols and polyphenols, widespread and mostly copious in dietary plant sources, as beneficial for human health. These compounds, as intrinsically antioxidant, are claimed as nutraceuticals with preventive efficacy in offsetting oxidant species over-genesis in normal cells, and with the potential ability to halt or reverse oxidative stress-related diseases. In this context, pure (poly)phenols and/or their herbal/food complexes were found to exert both anti- and pro-oxidant activities, suggesting also a promising chemopreventive efficacy. In fact, different evidence further highlights their ability to induce apoptosis, growth arrest, DNA synthesis inhibition and/or modulation of signal transduction pathways. Indeed, a full understanding of the phenolic and polyphenolic composition of plant species, which still now represent their inestimable and worth exploring source, is an important challenge, which today can and must be favourably pursued in the consciousness that the bioactivity of a plant extract is always in its chemistry. To reach this purpose a number of new and advanced techniques are available for extraction, purification and structural identification purposes, but, taking into account how, when and where (poly)phenols are biosynthesized, their use must be highly rationalized. This is particularly true for mass spectrometry techniques which, although representing one of the most powerful tools and in continuous evolution in this era, often suffer from an automatism that does not give justice to the chemical goodness of a plant species and particularly those of nutraceutical interest. This review will deepen into polyphenol research, focusing on biosynthesis, analytical approaches for a conscious exploitability of nutraceutical plant extracts rich in antioxidant and anti-inflammatory polyphenols and/or pure isolated polyphenols.

Abstract
The recent rise in the recreational use of plant-based "legal highs" has prompted the development of methods for the identification of the bulk material, and quantification of their psychoactive components. One of these plants is Mitragyna speciosa, commonly referred to as Kratom. While traditional use of this plant was primarily for medicinal purposes, there has been a rise in its recreational use, and as a self-prescribed medication for opioid withdrawal. Although Kratom contains many alkaloids, mitragynine and 7-hydroxymitragynine are unique psychoactive biomarkers of the species, and are responsible for its psychoactive effects. A rapid validated method for the quantification of mitragynine in Kratom plant materials by direct analysis in real time-high-resolution mass spectrometry (DART-HRMS) is presented. It has a linear range of 5-100 μg mL-1, and a lower limit of quantification of 5 μg mL-1. The protocol was applied to determination of the mitragynine content of 16 commercially available Kratom plant products purchased online. The mitragynine amounts in these materials ranged from 2.76 to 20.05 mg g-1 of dried plant material. The utilization of DART-HRMS affords a mechanism not only for the preliminary identification of bulk plant material as being M. speciosa-derived (with no sample preparation required), but also provides the opportunity to quantify its psychoactive components using the same technique.
