氨基糖作为环境中重要的生源有机质,其含量和组成信息能够反映有机质来源和微生物对有机质的贡献。国内外针对环境中氨基糖的分析测定开展了大量的研究,但系统地评述其分析方法及最新进展的工作仍然较少。从前处理方法和检测技术等方面,系统归纳了气相色谱法、高效液相色谱法和红外光谱法3类常用的氨基糖分析方法的优缺点和适用条件。在前处理方面,气相色谱法前处理过程较为繁琐且需衍生化处理,而高效液相色谱法前处理相对简单且更易实现自动化;在仪器检测方面,气相色谱法能同时检测环境中4种主要的氨基糖(氨基葡萄糖、氨基半乳糖、氨基甘露糖和胞壁酸),并且比高效液相色谱法稳定,而红外光谱法虽具有结构定性方面的优势,但其灵敏度较低。总之,尚未有一种分析方法既能保证氨基糖的灵敏分析又能兼顾实验效率,因此在分析环境样品中氨基糖时应根据样品形态和检测要求合理选择分析方法。在检测分析方面,今后可以在分析方法的经济性、兼容互补性以及在线自动化等方面着力开展工作,为更深入地开展环境中氨基糖生物地球化学过程的研究提供技术支持。

As a kind of important biogenic organic matter, amino sugars can effectively provide insights for the source of organic matters and the contribution of bacterial organic matters based on their concentrations and compositions in the environment. A large number of studies on the analysis of amino sugars have been conducted for environmental samples throughout the world. However, comprehensive and systematic reviews of new progress on the analytical method are still rare. From the aspects of pretreatment methods and detection techniques, the advantages and disadvantages and applicable conditions of three common methods (eg. gas chromatography, high performance liquid chromatography and infrared spectroscopy) were systematically summarized. In terms of pretreatment, the process of the gas chromatography is cumbersome and requires derivatization, while the pretreatment of high performance liquid chromatography is relatively simple and easier to automate. In respect of instrument detection, the gas chromatography can detect four amino sugars (glucosamine, galactosamine, mannosamine and muramic acid) simultaneously and is more stable than the high performance liquid chromatography. In addition, the infrared spectroscopy method has the advantages of structural qualitative, however, its sensitivity is lower. There is no analytical method that can guarantee both sensitive analysis of amino sugars and experimental efficiency. Therefore, the analytical method should be reasonably selected according to the form of the sample and the requirements in the analysis of amino sugars. Further work should focus on economy, compatibility and online automation of analytical methods, so as to provide technical support for the research on biogeochemical processes of amino sugars in the environment.
