Abstract
Dipeptides in sauce-flavor Baijiu Daqu are protein degradation products during the fermentation of Daqu, which are believed to play a crucial role in the flavor and quality of Baijiu. Herein, we integrated dansyl chloride derivatization with ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled with high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-HRMS) for comprehensively profiling dipeptides in Daqu. The derivatization efficiency was higher than 99.1 % for all 17 dipeptide standards under the optimized derivatization conditions. In total, 118 dipeptides were detected in Daqu. The method was validated and the analytical characteristics including the linearity (spanned across 2-4 orders of magnitude), precision (1.2-19.9 %), limit of detection (varied from 1.1 to 53.4 pmol/mL) and the stability (3.6-15.8 %) are satisfactory. The usefulness of the method was examined by studying the distribution characteristics of dipeptides in Daqu under different production conditions. The present method provides an effective and robust strategy for comprehensively analyzing dipeptide compounds in complex biological samples.

Food Chem X 2023; 20:100933. [PMID: 38144804 PMCID: PMC10739968 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2023.100933] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2023] [Revised: 07/17/2023] [Accepted: 10/06/2023] [Indexed: 12/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Dipeptides have been shown to be an important taste substance in alcoholic beverages. However, the characterization of dipeptides in Chinese liquors was poor. Here, dansylation combined with liquid chromatography - mass spectrometry was employed to analyze dipeptides in eight liquors of two flavors. Consequently, 35 dipeptides were identified from liquors and 32 of them were quantified. Dipeptide quantification showed LODs smaller than 2.5 ng/mL. The calibration curves showed concentration spans from two to three orders of magnitude with satisfactory linearity. The matrix effects in low and high concentrations were from -25.71 % to 24.19 % and -14.82 % to 20.73 %, respectively. Intra- and inter-day precision is lower than 15 % for both low and high concentrations. The dipeptide contents in sauce flavor liquors were higher than those in strong flavor liquors. Ala- and -Phe dipeptides showed their unique trends between sauce and strong flavor liquors. This study provides new clues to evaluate taste of liquors.
