An efficient and sensitive profiling approach to complex yew samples was developed using ultra-performance liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (UPLC/ESI-MS). The UPLC-based method displayed short analytical time and improved peak capability, as well as high sensitivity. The appropriate in-source collision-induced dissociation (CID) energy was employed to produce informative characteristic ions which could be used for stereochemical and sub-structural assignment of yew constituents. The method was successfully applied in the rapid screening of yew hair roots from various species, and 53 constituents including 47 taxoids were detected from partially purified root extract. Notably, C-7 hydroxytaxane stereoisomers could be identified based on their different fragment ions under the optimal profiling conditions. It was also observed that hair roots from different Taxus species exhibited nearly identical chemical distribution, indicating they had similar metabolic frameworks. Additionally, Taxus root resources also display benign medicinal perspective because they have relatively simple chemical profiles and possess high yields of valuable taxanes such as paclitaxel, cephalomannine, 10-deacetylpaclitaxel and 7-xylosyltaxanes.

Specificity is the probability of correctly determining the absence of a condition. (From Last, Dictionary of Epidemiology, 2d ed) Specificity,Sensitivity,Specificity and Sensitivity
D013045 Species Specificity The restriction of a characteristic behavior, anatomical structure or physical system, such as immune response; metabolic response, or gene or gene variant to the members of one species. It refers to that property which differentiates one species from another but it is also used for phylogenetic levels higher or lower than the species.

D020946 Taxus Genus of coniferous yew trees or shrubs, several species of which have medicinal uses. Notable is the Pacific yew, Taxus brevifolia, which is used to make the anti-neoplastic drug taxol (PACLITAXEL). Taxus brevifolia,Taxus brevifolias,brevifolia, Taxus
D021241 Spectrometry, Mass, Electrospray Ionization A mass spectrometry technique used for analysis of nonvolatile compounds such as proteins and macromolecules. The technique involves preparing electrically charged droplets from analyte molecules dissolved in solvent. The electrically charged droplets enter a vacuum chamber where the solvent is evaporated. Evaporation of solvent reduces the droplet size, thereby increasing the coulombic repulsion within the droplet. As the charged droplets get smaller, the excess charge within them causes them to disintegrate and release analyte molecules. The volatilized analyte molecules are then analyzed by mass spectrometry.
