The fact that the effects of herbal medicines (HMs) are brought about by their chemical constituents has created a critical demand for powerful analytical tools performing the chemical analysis to assure their efficacy. safety and quality. Liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is an excellent technique to analyze multi-components in complex herbal matrices. Due to its inherent characteristics of accurate mass measurements and high resolution, time-of-flight (TOF) MS is well-suited to this field, especially for qualitative applications The purpose of this article is to provide an overview on the potential of TOF. including the hybrid quadrupole- and ion trap-TOF(QTOF and IT-TOF). hyphenated to LC for chemical analysis in HMs or HM-treated biological samples The peculiarities of LC-(Q/IT)TOF-MS for the analysis of HMs are discussed first, including applied stationary phase. mobile-phase selection, accurate mass measurements, fragmentation and selectivity. The final section is devoted to describing the applicability of LC-(Q/IT)TOF-MS to routine analysis of multi-components, including target and nontarget (unknown) compounds, in herbal samples, emphasizing both the advantages and limitations of this approach for qualitative and quantitative purposes. The potential and future trends of fast high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) (e.g rapid resolution LC and ultra-performance LC) coupled to (Q)TOF-MS for chemical analysis of HMs are highlighted.
