Maillard reactions generate a wide array of amino acid- and sugar-derived intermediates; the isomeric mixtures of glycated amino acids are of particular interest. Excluding stereoisomers, regioisomers, and various anomers, most amino acids can form two monoglycated and three N , N -diglycated isomers when reacted with sugars during the Maillard reaction. Using synthetic Schiff bases and Amadori compounds as standards, we have demonstrated that diagnostic ions obtained from MS/MS fragmentations in negative ionization mode can be used effectively for the discrimination between glucose-derived Schiff bases and their corresponding Amadori compounds in both mono- and diglycated forms. The utilization of these diagnostic ions and isotopic labeling in the glycine/glucose model system revealed that milling glucose/glycine mixtures for 30 min/30 Hz at ambient temperature produced monoglycated glycine in equal proportions of Amadori and Schiff base forms, whereas diglycated glycine was a mixture of the three isomers: Schiff-Schiff, Schiff-Amadori, or Amadori-Amadori in approximately equal molar proportions. The above results were further corroborated using a synthetic histidine Amadori product, N , N -difructosyl-β-alanine, dipeptides, and ribose. Using mechanochemistry as a convenient synthetic tool in combination with MS/MS diagnostic ions, the isomeric diversity of the early stages of the Maillard reaction can be revealed.
