The cyclic dipeptides, 2,5-diketopiperazines (DKPs), draw attention as bioactive and taste compounds. DKPs, especially those containing Proline (Pro), are contained in heated and fermented foods. Herein, we developed a method for a simultaneous quantitative analysis of Pro-containing DKPs using LC-MS/MS. After optimizing the LC-MS/MS conditions, the developed method was applied to quantify Pro-containing DKPs in Goishi tea, which is a post-fermented tea produced by a two-step aerobic-anaerobic fermentation process. Consequently, 17 kinds of Pro-containing DKPs could be quantified, and the total amount of Pro-containing DKPs was 3.40 mg/L. The recovery in a spiked test was 93 - 117%, which is satisfactory. We believe that the developed method can be used to elucidate the role of Pro-containing DKPs in food.

D010456 Peptides, Cyclic Peptides whose amino acid residues are linked together forming a circular chain. Some of them are ANTI-INFECTIVE AGENTS; some are biosynthesized non-ribosomally (PEPTIDE BIOSYNTHESIS, NON-RIBOSOMAL). Circular Peptide,Cyclic Peptide,Cyclic Peptides,Cyclopeptide,Orbitide,Circular Peptides,Cyclopeptides,Orbitides,Peptide, Circular,Peptide, Cyclic,Peptides, Circular
D011392 Proline A non-essential amino acid that is synthesized from GLUTAMIC ACID. It is an essential component of COLLAGEN and is important for proper functioning of joints and tendons. L-Proline,L Proline
D002853 Chromatography, Liquid Chromatographic techniques in which the mobile phase is a liquid. Liquid Chromatography
D053719 Tandem Mass Spectrometry A mass spectrometry technique using two (MS/MS) or more mass analyzers. With two in tandem, the precursor ions are mass-selected by a first mass analyzer, and focused into a collision region where they are then fragmented into product ions which are then characterized by a second mass analyzer. A variety of techniques are used to separate the compounds, ionize them, and introduce them to the first mass analyzer. For example, for in GC-MS/MS, GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY-MASS SPECTROMETRY is involved in separating relatively small compounds by GAS CHROMATOGRAPHY prior to injecting them into an ionization chamber for the mass selection. Mass Spectrometry-Mass Spectrometry,Mass Spectrometry Mass Spectrometry,Mass Spectrometry, Tandem
D057230 Limit of Detection Concentration or quantity that is derived from the smallest measure that can be detected with reasonable certainty for a given analytical procedure. Limits of Detection,Detection Limit,Detection Limits
