Abstract

The use of electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) in negative ion mode was investigated as a direct probe for identifying Al species in Al-accumulating hydrangea (Hydrangea macrophylla) samples. Cell sap solutions of hydrangea leaves were purified using Sephadex G-10 liquid chromatography and each fraction was analyzed using ESI-MS and ESI-MS/MS to identify Al species. In hydrangea leaves, a 1:1 Al-citrate complex was found as [A1H-1 cit]- (m/z 215), where H3cit denotes citric acid. This result is consistent with that of Ma et al. who used 27A1-NMR.
