Dual-mode cooperative detection method for unsaturated fatty acid in Baijiu
By using a modified C18 solid-phase extraction column and low-temperature anti-oxidation derivatization technology, combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry, the problem of simultaneous detection of unsaturated fatty acids in baijiu was solved. This achieved high-fidelity quantification of macro-components and high-sensitivity detection of trace components, making it suitable for batch detection of baijiu with different aroma types and alcohol contents.

AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies cannot simultaneously achieve high-fidelity quantification of easily oxidizable macro-components and high-sensitivity detection of trace easily oxidizable components in the same baijiu sample. Furthermore, they suffer from matrix interference and oxidative degradation issues, failing to meet the needs of batch and standardized testing in the baijiu industry.
Selective enrichment and matrix purification were achieved using modified C18 solid-phase extraction columns, combined with low-temperature anti-oxidative derivatization and dual-mode synergistic detection. Palmitic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, and α-linolenic acid were detected using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HPLC-QFS-MS). Derivatization reactions were carried out at low temperatures using composite derivatization reagents and antioxidant auxiliaries, and the results were calibrated using internal and external standard methods.
This method enables efficient and simultaneous detection of unsaturated fatty acids in baijiu (Chinese liquor), effectively removing matrix interference, reducing oxidation loss, and improving the accuracy and stability of detection. It is suitable for batch detection of baijiu with different aroma types and alcohol contents.
