Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of food detection, and in particular to a method for rapidly identifying harmful components in pickled peppers. Background Art
[0002] Paola is very popular among consumers for its unique flavor, fresh taste, and the effect of increasing appetite and aiding digestion. The lactic acid and lactic acid bacteria contained in it are very beneficial to human health. They can inhibit the growth of putrefactive bacteria in the intestines and weaken the toxic production of putrefactive bacteria in the intestines, lower cholesterol and regulate human physiological functions.
[0003] There are three main principles for making pickled peppers: first, use the high osmotic pressure and strong dehydrating effect of salt to achieve the effects of preservation, dehydration and crispness; second, use the fermentation of microorganisms, mainly lactic acid fermentation, alcohol fermentation and acetic acid fermentation, to convert the sugar substances in fresh chili peppers into lactic acid and a small amount of alcohol and acetic acid; third, use the changes in amino acids produced by the decomposition of protein to increase the color, aroma and taste of the chili peppers, and use spices and seasonings to flavor it.
[0004] The traditional pickled pepper pickling process is to select, cut and clean fresh peppers, put them into a container, add seasoning solution and vegetables such as ginger and garlic (optional), and pickle them. The seasoning solution contains salt, bacteria and additives (including calcium chloride, acetic acid, sodium isovitamin C, sodium metabisulfite), etc.
[0005] The fermentation of pickled peppers is a complex biochemical reaction, which involves changes in the peppers themselves, changes in other vegetables themselves, changes in the flora themselves, interactions between peppers and other vegetables, interactions between flora and peppers, interactions between peppers and additives, interactions between other vegetables and flora, interactions between other vegetables and additives, interactions between additives and flora, etc. Pickled peppers contain complex chemical components, such as nitrates, which are well known to the public. In recent years, due to the emphasis on food safety, it is necessary to analyze the ingredients of pickled peppers.
[0006] Biogenic amine (BA) is a general term for a class of low-molecular-weight organic compounds containing nitrogen and having biological activity. It can be regarded as a substance generated by replacing 1-3 hydrogen atoms in the ammonia molecule with alkyl or aryl groups. It is a low-molecular-weight organic base of aliphatic, ester ring or heterocyclic groups, and is often found in animals, plants and food. Most foods contain biogenic amines, which are mainly generated by the decarboxylation of amino acids by microbial amino acid decarboxylase. Appropriate amounts of biogenic amines can promote normal physiological activities of the human body, while excessive intake will produce adverse reactions.
[0007] According to their structures, biogenic amines can be divided into three parts: aliphatic amines such as putrescine, cadaverin, spermine, and spermidine; aromatic amines such as tyramine and phenylethylamine; and heterocyclic amines such as histamine and tryptamine. A moderate amount of biogenic amines is beneficial to human health, but an excessive amount of biogenic amines can cause human poisoning, leading to serious consequences, such as headaches, changes in blood pressure, respiratory disorders, palpitations, and vomiting. Histamine is the most toxic of the biogenic amines. Excessive histamine can cause headaches, digestive disorders, abnormal blood pressure, and even neurotoxicity. Tyramine is second in toxicity, and excessive amounts can also cause headaches and high blood pressure. Cadaverine and putrescine have low toxicity themselves, but they can inhibit the activity of histamine and tyramine-related metabolic enzymes, increase the amount of histamine and tyramine, and thus enhance the discomfort symptoms of the human body. In addition, putrescine, cadaverine, etc. can react with nitrite to produce carcinogenic nitrosamines.
[0008] Therefore, it is very necessary to detect the content of putrescine, histamine, tyramine and cadaverine in pickled peppers. In the prior art, all biogenic amines are usually detected. For example, the patent with application number CN201610447198.7 discloses a method for rapid detection of 7 biogenic amines in liquor by ultra-high performance convergence chromatography in series with QDa. For example, the patent with application number CN201410120955.0 discloses a method for determining the content of biogenic amines in food by ultra-high performance convergence chromatography. For example, the patent with application number CN 201010111733.4 discloses a method for detecting biogenic amines in bean paste. For example, the patent with application number CN201811372977.0 discloses a method for detecting biogenic amines in Pueraria root. For example, the patent with application number CN202211688102.8 discloses a method for detecting biogenic amines in fermented soy products. Summary of the invention
