Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the field of oil and fat chemical analysis and detection, and relates to application of a fluorescent probe technology in oil and fat component analysis, in particular to a method for identifying adulteration of tea oil based on C-4 dimethyl sterol composition. BACKGROUND

[0002] Plant sterols are abundant in oilseeds, and the key step of sterol biosynthesis is to control the carbon flow into the isoprene pathway to generate C4-dimethyl sterols (cycloartenol and 24-methylene cycloartenol), which are then converted into common non-methyl sterols (sitosterol and campesterol). Sterol methyltransferase (SMT) and sterol methyl oxidase (SMO) play a key role in the process of converting C4-dimethyl sterols into non-methyl sterols. Studies have shown that the differential expression of sterol-related metabolic genes produces a unique sterol fingerprint of oil. For example, oil tea has lower SMT1 gene expression, and the content of C4-dimethyl sterols in its sterol fingerprint is higher; soybean has a higher transcription level of SMO, so the proportion of C4-dimethyl sterols in the sterol fingerprint of soybean oil is smaller. Oilseed crops form differential sterol fingerprints during evolution, and the sterol fingerprints of the same species are still highly conserved, for example, oil tea seed oil, tea seed oil and shea oil. Therefore, analyzing the structural composition of plant sterols can achieve adulteration identification of edible oils according to the plant sterol fingerprint information.

[0003] The molecular polarity produced by 3β hydroxyl (3β-OH) in plant sterols is the main reason for the occurrence of specific interaction with Filipin III. Compared with non-methyl sterols, C4-dimethyl sterols have weaker polarity due to the shielding effect of two methyl groups (CH3) beside 3β-OH, and cannot be tightly arranged in the interface layer of the determination medium, so the affinity ability with Filipin III is reduced, and the fluorescence intensity produced is weaker. The proportion difference of different C4-dimethyl sterols and non-methyl sterols in edible oils will affect the affinity efficiency of Filipin III. When the total amount of sterols in the determination medium is the same, the fluorescence signal formed after binding with Filipin III also has specificity, and this fluorescence signal feature can be used for adulteration detection of oil.

[0004] CN106950241B discloses a method for predicting the type and content of other doped oils in tea oil, and CN112305108A discloses an oil tea seed oil adulteration detection method based on the ratio of oleic acid / behenic acid and beta-amyrin / linoleic acid. Both of them detect the adulteration of tea oil, but both of them involve complex extraction process and sample detection process, such as nuclear magnetic resonance 1H-NMR detection, OPLS-DA analysis; and the analysis and processing of the final data of the sample are complex, which is difficult to meet the requirements of efficient discrimination of edible oil adulteration. CN103217393B discloses a method for detecting adulterated tea oil. The invention increases the full-wave scanning of ultraviolet spectrum on the basis of detecting refractive index, iodine value, saponification value and oleic acid content. However, the invention needs to be fitted and identified under the model of known target adulteration components, and cannot realize accurate and quantitative analysis of unknown components. At present, the products in the edible oil market in China are diversified, subdivided and high-end. It is of great significance to improve the discrimination ability of edible oil adulteration, crack down on edible oil adulteration and fraud, and ensure the quality and safety of edible oil products. The phytosterol in oil has high inertness, stability and specificity in the distribution of oil, can produce specific fingerprint information, and can be quickly identified by Filipin III fluorescent probe. The edible oil adulteration identification based on the phytosterol fingerprint information has important application value. SUMMARY

[0005] The technical problem to be solved is that in view of the defects of the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a method for identifying tea oil adulteration based on C-4 dimethyl sterol composition, and the specific steps are: tea oil adulteration sample preparation, fluorescence signal acquisition, phytosterol composition analysis, adulteration detection model establishment and adulteration discrimination. The method can identify and discriminate whether tea oil is doped with other oils and determine the adulteration proportion, so as to solve the technical problems of complicated, low-efficiency detection method of edible oil adulteration with other oils, qualitative and quantitative detection precision in the prior art.

[0006] Technical scheme: A method for identifying tea oil adulteration based on C-4 dimethyl sterol composition, comprising the following steps:

[0007] S1. Extraction of phytosterol: mix tea oil with other oils to obtain tea oil adulteration samples with different adulteration proportions, and quickly extract unsaponifiable matter of tea oil and tea oil adulteration samples to obtain phytosterol;

[0008] S2. Phytosterol composition analysis: after derivatization treatment of the phytosterol of the tea oil adulteration sample, GC-MS determination is performed, and according to the gas chromatogram and fingerprint data, the peak area of C-4 dimethyl sterol and the proportion a of the peak area of C-4 dimethyl sterol to the total peak area are obtained;

[0009] S3. Fluorescence signal acquisition: Filipin III fluorescent probe detection was used to detect the fluorescence signal intensity of phytosterols in tea oil, and the average value was taken as the reference threshold f for identifying tea oil adulteration. The fluorescence signal intensity x of phytosterols in tea oil adulteration samples was also collected;

[0010] S5. Adulteration identification: Unsaponifiable matter of the unknown oil sample to be tested was rapidly extracted, and the fluorescence signal intensity x and the peak area ratio a of C-4 dimethyl sterol to the total peak area were matched with the adulteration detection model to identify whether the tea oil was adulterated with other oils. The adulteration ratio was calculated by the difference method, and the adulteration ratio = |x-f| / f x 100%.

[0011] Further, the tea oil in step S1 is camellia seed oil; and the other oils include one or more of peanut oil, soybean oil, cottonseed oil, and rapeseed oil.

[0012] Further, the different adulteration ratios in step S1 are 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 30%, and 50%, respectively.

[0013] Further, the preparation method of phytosterols in step S1 is as follows: 8% NaOH solution is added to tea oil and tea oil adulteration samples, respectively, and vortexed for 0.5-1.0 min. After saponification treatment under ultrasonic heating conditions for 15 min, a treatment liquid is obtained. Equal volume of deionized water is added to the treatment liquid, shaken and diluted, and then equal volume of n-hexane is added and shaken. When the water phase and organic phase are separated, the unsaponifiable matter is extracted, dried with N2, and phytosterols are obtained.

[0014] Further, the derivatization treatment in step S2 is as follows: 200 μL of silylating reagent is added to the phytosterols of the tea oil adulteration sample, and derivatization treatment is performed at 75°C water bath for 30 min. After the sample is cooled to room temperature, it is dried with N2 again, redissolved in 100 μL of n-hexane, filtered through a 0.22 μm organic microporous filter, and measured.

[0015] Further, the silylating reagent is a mixed solution of BSTFA and TMCS with a volume ratio of 99:1.

[0016] Further, the GC-MS determination conditions in step S2 are as follows:

[0017] Chromatographic conditions:

[0018] Chromatographic column: DB-5 chromatographic column, 30 m x 0.25 mm, 0.25 μm;

[0019] Temperature program: the initial column temperature was set to 200℃ and maintained for 0.5 min; the temperature was raised to 250℃ at a rate of 15℃ / min and maintained for 8 min; the "low rate gradient temperature program" was used to raise the temperature at a rate of 1℃ / min, and the column temperature was maintained at 270℃ for 1.5 min after being raised to 270℃;

[0020] Detector, injection port temperature: 290℃;

[0021] Injection volume: 1.0 μL;

[0022] Split ratio: 1:100;

[0023] Carrier gas: 99.99% high-purity helium, flow rate 1.2 mL / min;

[0024] Total program run time: 40 min;

[0025] Mass spectrometry conditions:

[0026] Injection port temperature: 300℃;

[0027] Solvent delay: 10 min;

[0028] Ion source: EI;

[0029] Electron energy: 70 eV;

[0030] Scan time: 0.5 s;

[0031] Mass scan range: 50-550 m / z.

[0032] Further, the specific steps of the Filipin III fluorescent probe detection in step S3 are as follows: 100 μL of Filipin III working solution is added to the phytosterols in the tea oil and tea oil adulteration samples, and incubated in the dark at room temperature for 30 min; the staining solution is removed, and fluorescence analysis is performed.

[0033] Further, the fluorescence signal intensity refers to the fluorescence absorption of the Filipin III probe under 300-400 nm excitation light and 400-500 nm emission light.

[0034] Beneficial effects:

[0035] 1.The present application uses Filipin III fluorescent probe to specifically bind with phytosterol 3β-OH, and determines the adulteration amount by the characteristic absorption of Filipin III fluorescent probe under 300-400 nm excitation light and 400-500 nm emission light; the proportion of C4-dimethyl sterol in tea oil is high, and C4-dimethyl sterol has weaker polarity due to the shielding effect of two methyl groups (CH3) beside 3β-OH, so the affinity ability of C4-dimethyl sterol with Filipin III decreases; compared with other oils rich in non-methyl sterol, the weaker Filipin III fluorescence intensity value of tea oil can be used to indicate the proportion of tea oil adulteration; compared with the traditional method relying only on GC-MS, infrared spectrum or nuclear magnetic resonance technology, the Filipin III fluorescence characteristics can not only identify the adulteration amount, but also have the characteristics of simple and rapid, good repeatability and high accuracy.

[0036] 2.The present application uses high-concentration 8% NaOH solution to rapidly extract phytosterol, and under the action of high-concentration NaOH solution, a large amount of hydroxyl ions (OH-) can be effectively provided in a short time, and this alkaline condition helps to separate phytosterol molecules from oil; since hydroxyl ions can form water-soluble complexes with the hydroxyl groups in the sterol molecules, the sterol is more easily dissolved under alkaline conditions; in addition, NaOH solution at a concentration of 8% can selectively and fully dissolve sterol, while the dissolution of other plant ingredients such as tocopherol and polyphenol is relatively small, and this selectivity can improve the purity and yield of sterol extraction, which is beneficial to Filipin III fluorescence detection and GC-MS composition analysis of phytosterol.

[0037] 3.The present application uses regression analysis method to establish an adulteration detection model for adulterated tea oil, which has good fitting constant and high accuracy; the use of Filipin III fluorescent probe alone has many influencing factors and relatively large error, therefore, the present application uses both GC-MS composition analysis and Filipin III fluorescent probe detection to construct the adulteration detection model, so that the accuracy of the model is higher, and the Filipin III fluorescence intensity threshold and adulteration detection model provided by the present application can be repeatedly used for rapid detection of different batches.

[0082] Example 8

[0083] A method for identifying adulteration of tea oil based on C-4 dimethyl sterol composition, comprising the following steps:

[0084] S1. Extraction of phytosterol: Add high-alkalinity saponification solution (8% NaOH) to the tea oil adulteration sample (tea oil sample 90% + 10% cottonseed oil), vortex for 0.5-1.0 min, and perform saponification treatment under ultrasonic heating for 15 min to obtain a treatment liquid. Dilute the treatment liquid by first adding an equal volume of deionized water, shaking, and then adding an equal volume of n-hexane and shaking. When the water phase and organic phase are separated, extract the unsaponifiable matter, dry it with N2, and obtain the phytosterol;

[0085] S2. Analysis of phytosterol composition: Add 200 μL of silanization reagent BSTFA+TMCS (99:1, v / v) to the phytosterol and place it in a 75°C water bath for 30 min for derivatization treatment. After the sample cools to room temperature, dry it again with N2, redissolve it in 100 μL of n-hexane, pass it through a 0.22 μm organic microporous filter membrane, and perform GC-MS determination. According to the gas chromatogram and fingerprint data, obtain the proportion a of the peak area of C-4 dimethyl sterol to the total peak area;

[0086] S3. Fluorescence signal acquisition: Add 100 μL of Filipin III working solution to the phytosterol, incubate it in the dark at room temperature for 30 min, remove the staining solution, perform Filipin III fluorescence probe detection, and collect the fluorescence signal intensity x of the phytosterol in the tea oil adulteration sample;

[0087] S4. Adulteration identification: Quickly extract the unsaponifiable matter of the unknown oil sample to be tested, match the measured fluorescence signal intensity x and the proportion a of the peak area of C-4 dimethyl sterol to the total peak area with the adulteration detection model, identify whether the tea oil is adulterated with other oils, and calculate the adulteration proportion by the difference method: adulteration proportion = |x-f| / f x 100%.

[0088] Verification of equation accuracy:

[0089] Substitute the proportion a of the peak area of C-4 dimethyl sterol to the total peak area in the tea oil prepared in Examples 1-8 and the tea oil adulteration samples with different adulteration proportions into the linear regression equation to obtain the preliminary judgment of the adulteration proportion, and then confirm the adulteration proportion by the fluorescence intensity x. The results are shown in Table 2 below:

[0090] Table 2 Predicted adulteration identification results of tea oil prepared in Examples 1-8 and tea oil adulteration samples

[0091]

[0092]

[0093] It can be seen from Examples 1-8 in Table 2 that the relative deviations of the proportion of C-4 dimethyl sterol (a) and the fluorescence intensity of Filipin III (x) for identifying the adulteration proportion of tea oil are all less than 3.42%, and the average relative deviation is 2.05%. Therefore, the adulteration identification result is accurate and stable. As can be seen from the comparison of Example 3 and Example 4, the smaller the proportion of other oils in the adulterated tea oil sample, the greater the relative deviation obtained by detection. Therefore, the adulteration identification model is more accurate in the adulteration identification of high proportion of adulterated tea oil samples.
