Abstract: A novel method for the analysis of isoflavonoids in soybean was established by rapid resolution liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (RRLC-Q-TOF-MS). Samples were extracted with methanol under ultrasound assistance, and then a Welch Materials C18 column was applied in the RRLC separation using acetonitrile and water (0.1% formic acid) as the mobile phase. Elutes were detected by Q-TOF to obtain MS spectra with a positive ion mode. Nine isoflavonoids were identified. Therefore, this method can be used to rapidly determine isoflavonoids of soybean.

Key words: RRLC-Q-TOF, soybean, isoflavonoids
