Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of analytical detection technology, and in particular to a method for detecting primary metabolites and / or secondary metabolites in fragrances and flavorings. Background Technology

[0002] Flavors and fragrances are highly complex mixtures whose sensory characteristics and functional properties depend primarily on their primary and secondary metabolites. Primary metabolites are essential building blocks for life, mainly including small molecules such as sugars, amino acids, organic acids, and nucleotides. They directly participate in cellular metabolic processes, providing the basic flavor precursors for flavors and fragrances. Secondary metabolites, on the other hand, are specialized compounds produced by organisms under specific conditions. They possess more complex chemical structures and more specific biological activities, including alkaloids, flavonoids, terpenes, and phenols. These substances not only contribute to the characteristic aromas of flavors and fragrances but also significantly influence product stability and bioactivity.

[0003] The analysis of metabolites in fragrances and flavorings currently relies primarily on chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Gas chromatography (GC) and its coupled techniques are effective at separating volatile components, but are not suitable for large, thermally unstable, or non-volatile secondary metabolites. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), while capable of analyzing large molecules, is not suitable for analyzing complex fragrance and flavoring components. Traditional mass spectrometry techniques, such as single quadrupole mass spectrometry (SQMS) or triple quadrupole tandem mass spectrometry (TPMS), typically require pre-identification of target compounds and the establishment of specific monitoring ion pairs, limiting their applicability to targeted analysis. Furthermore, existing technologies suffer from limitations in detection precision.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a precise and comprehensive method for detecting primary and / or secondary metabolites in fragrances and flavorings. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a method for detecting primary and / or secondary metabolites in fragrances and flavorings. The method provided by this invention, through oximation and silanization treatment of the fragrances and flavorings, followed by detection using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, enables precise, accurate, and comprehensive detection of the metabolites contained therein.

[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0009] (2) The dry product, oxime reagent and solvent are mixed to carry out oxime reaction, and then the reaction system is mixed with silanizing reagent to carry out silanization reaction to obtain the test solution; the silanizing reagent includes a combination of N-methyl-N-(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide and N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide;

[0010] (3) Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was used to detect the test solution, and the content of primary metabolites and / or secondary metabolites in the fragrance and flavor was obtained by internal standard method.

[0011] This invention first oximates and silanizes the fragrance and flavoring. The silanizing agent is a combination of N-methyl-N-(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide and N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide, which work synergistically to further promote the silanization reaction.
