ABSTRACT
The present work details about comparing two mass analysers LC-MS and MALDI-Tof in analysing the marigold lutein esters. MALDI technique was found to be much simple, easier and quick without any sample preparation. Both LC-MS and MALDI-Tof were helpful in identifying all the expected fatty acid esters (FA1-lutein-FA2) from the oleoresin. This study in particular explores the possibilities of using MALDI-Tof in analysing the fatty acid esters of carotenoids from natural products.
Keywords: Lutein esters, MALDI-Tof, LC-MS, Mass spectrum, Comparison.
