Comparative Characterization of the Ginsenosides from Six Panax Herbal Extracts and Their In Vitro Rat Gut Microbial Metabolites by Advanced Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry Approaches

Ginseng extracts are extensively used as raw materials for food supplements and herbal medicines. This study aimed to characterize ginsenosides obtained from six Panax plant extracts (Panax ginseng, red ginseng, Panax quinquefolius, Panax notoginseng, Panax japonicus, and Panax japonicus var. major) and compared them with their in vitro metabolic profiles mediated by rat intestinal microbiota. Ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography/ion mobility-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UHPLC/IM-QTOF-MS) with scheduled multiple reaction monitoring (sMRM) quantitation methods were developed to characterize and compare the ginsenoside composition of the different extracts. After in vitro incubation, 248 ginsenosides/metabolites were identified by UHPLC/IM-QTOF-MS in six biotransformed samples. Deglycosylation was determined to be the main metabolic pathway of ginsenosides, and protopanaxadiol-type and oleanolic acid-type saponins were easier to be easily metabolized. Compared with the ginsenosides in plant extracts, those remaining in six biotransformed samples were considerably fewer after biotransformation for 8 h. However, the compositional differences in four subtypes of the ginsenosides among the six Panax plants became more distinct.
