Abstract: Objective: To develop HPLC-MS method for detecting catalytic reaction products of alliin by alliinase. Methods: HPLC-MS equipped with an electro spray ionization (ESI) source was used for this study. Results: The catalytic reaction products of alliin by alliinase are determined as allicin and pyruvic acid. Conclusion: The method is sensitive, simple and accurate, and will provide a basis for the study of allicin in and its pharmacodynamics.

Key words: HPLC-MS, alliin, alliinase, allicin
