The stable isotope ratios ((13)C/(12)C and (15)N/(14)N) of casein measured by isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) and some free amino acid ratios (His/Pro, Ile/Pro, Met/Pro, and Thr/Pro) determined by HPLC in samples of ewes' milk cheese from Sardinia, Sicily, and Apulia were found to be parameters independent of ripening time. Multivariate data treatments performed by applying both unsupervised (principal component analysis and cluster analysis) and supervised [linear discriminant analysis (LDA)] methods revealed good discrimination possibilities for the cheeses according to place of origin. In this respect, particularly significant were the variables Ile/Pro, Thr/Pro, (13)C/(12)C, and (15) N/(14)N ratios on which basis 100% discrimination and classification of the samples by LDA was obtained.  相似文献

Stable carbon isotope ratio mass spectrometry (delta13C IRMS) was used to detect maple syrup adulteration by exogenous sugar addition (beet and cane sugar). Malic acid present in maple syrup is proposed as an isotopic internal standard to improve actual adulteration detection levels. A lead precipitation method has been modified to isolate quantitatively malic acid from maple syrup using preparative reversed-phase liquid chromatography. The stable carbon isotopic ratio of malic acid isolated from this procedure shows an excellent accuracy and repeatability of 0.01 and 0.1 per thousand respectively, confirming that the modified lead precipitation method is an isotopic fractionation-free process. A new approach is proposed to detect adulteration based on the correlation existing between the delta13Cmalic acid and the delta13Csugars-delta13Cmalic acid (r = 0.704). This technique has been tested on a set of 56 authentic maple syrup samples. Additionally, authentic samples were spiked with exogeneous sugars. The mean theoretical detection level was statistically lowered using this technique in comparison with the usual two-standard deviation approach, especially when maple syrup is adulterated with beet sugar : 24 +/- 12% of adulteration detection versus 48 +/- 20% (t-test, p = 7.3 x 10-15). The method was also applied to published data for pineapple juices and honey with the same improvement.  相似文献

The main goal of this study was to propose a reliable method to verify the geographical origin of meat, establishing the influence of soil and water on its isotopic and elemental composition. Thus, beef meat, soil, and water samples were collected from three major cattle-producing regions of Argentina (Buenos Aires, Córdoba, and Entre Ríos). Multielemental composition was determined on these three matrices by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), δ(13)C and δ(15)N by isotope-ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS), and the (87)Sr/(86)Sr ratio by thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS). Soil and drinking water samples could be characterized and clearly differentiated by combining the isotopic ratios and elements, demonstrating differences in geology and climatic conditions of three regions. Similarly, meat originating at each sampling area was characterized and differentiated using only five key variables (Rb, Ca/Sr, δ(13)C, δ(15)N, and (87)Sr/(86)Sr). Generalized procrustes analysis (GPA), using the three studied matrices (soil, water, and meat) shows consensus between them and clear differences between studied areas. Furthermore, canonical correlation analysis (CCA) demonstrates significant correlation between the chemical-isotopic profile of meat with those corresponding to both soil and water (r(2) = 0.93, p < 0.001; and r(2) = 0.83, p < 0.001, respectively). So far, there are clear coincidences between the meat fingerprint and those from soil/water where cattle grew, presenting a good method to establish beef provenance. To the authors' knowledge this is the first report linking the influence of soil and water all together on the composition of beef, presenting the basis for the authentication of Argentinean beef, which could be extended to meat from different provenances.  相似文献

On-line capillary gas chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry was used in the combustion (HRGC-C-IRMS) and the pyrolysis (HRGC-P-IRMS) modes to determine delta(13)C(PDB), delta(2)H(SMOW), and delta(18)O(SMOW) data of estragole (1) and methyl eugenol (2) originating from various sources. For 1, similar delta(13)C values, i.e., ranging from -35.4 to -29.9 per thousand and from -36.4 to -28.8 per thousand for the product of synthetic and natural origins, respectively, were found. The delta(2)H values ranged from -155 to -3 per thousand for synthetic 1 and from -193 to -105 per thousand for 1 from natural origin, whereas the determination of delta(18)O data gave values from +1.8 to +24.8 per thousand and from +2.7 to +18.7 per thousand for 1 from synthetic and natural origins, respectively. As synthetic 2 is produced by methylation of natural eugenol, the IRMS techniques did not allow differentiation of synthetic 2 from the product of natural origin. The recorded data ranges were nearly identical, i.e., delta(13)C = -37.4 to -35.0 per thousand and -41.1 to -32.2 per thousand; delta(2)H = -155 to -126 per thousand and -217 to -107 per thousand; delta(18)O = +5.5 to +6.6 per thousand and +2.7 to +6.9 per thousand, each for 2 from synthetic and natural origins, respectively.  相似文献

Multielemental (C, N, H, S) stable isotope ratio analysis was used as an analytical tool to verify the geographical origin of beef from several European and non-European countries. Beef samples were collected from nine different countries, and the (13)C/(12)C, (15)N/(14)N, (2)H/(1)H, and (34)S/(32)S ratios of defatted beef were measured using isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS). There were highly significant differences in the mean isotopic values of the beef from different countries. The results of discriminant analysis showed that the four isotope ratios were significant for the discrimination of geographical origin and that 84.9% of the samples were correctly assigned to the country of origin (82.2% when cross-validated). Beef was also classified according to geographical origin when additional information on different feeding regimens used in Ireland was included, with 85.0% of the samples correctly allocated and 82.9% cross-validated using the isotopic signatures. All of the Irish beef samples verifiable as pasture-fed beef were correctly classified and then cross-validated.  相似文献

Stable isotope ratio analysis (SIRA) was used as an analytical tool to verify the preslaughter diet of beef cattle. Muscle and tail hair samples were collected from animals fed either pasture (P), a barley-based concentrate (C), silage followed by pasture (SiP), or silage followed by pasture with concentrate (SiPC) for 1 year (n = 25 animals per treatment). The (13)C/(12)C, (15)N/(14)N, (2)H/(1)H, and (34)S/(32)S isotope ratios in muscle clearly reflected those of the diets consumed by the animals. By applying a stepwise canonical discriminant analysis, a good discrimination of bovine meat according to dietary regimen was obtained. On the basis of the classification success rate, the (13)C/(12)C and (34)S/(32)S ratios in muscle were the best indicators for authentication of beef from animals consuming the different diets. Analysis of (13)C/(12)C and (15)N/(14)N in tail hair sections provided an archival record of changes to the diet of the cattle for periods of over 1 year preslaughter.  相似文献

Our main goal was to investigate if robust chemical fingerprints could be developed for three Argentinean red wines based on organic, inorganic, and isotopic patterns, in relation to the regional soil composition. Soils and wines from three regions (Mendoza, San Juan, and Co?rdoba) and three varieties (Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, and Syrah) were collected. The phenolic profile was determined by HPLC-MS/MS and multielemental composition by ICP-MS; (87)Sr/(86)Sr and δ(13)C were determined by TIMS and IRMS, respectively. Chemometrics allowed robust differentiation between regions, wine varieties, and the same variety from different regions. Among phenolic compounds, resveratrol concentration was the most useful marker for wine differentiation, whereas Mg, K/Rb, Ca/Sr, and (87)Sr/(86)Sr were the main inorganic and isotopic parameters selected. Generalized Procrustes analysis (GPA) using two studied matrices (wine and soil) shows consensus between them and clear differences between studied areas. Finally, we applied a canonical correlation analysis, demonstrating significant correlation (r = 0.99; p < 0.001) between soil and wine composition. To our knowledge this is the first report combining independent variables, constructing a fingerprint including elemental composition, isotopic, and polyphenol patterns to differentiate wines, matching part of this fingerprint with the soil provenance.  相似文献

A sensitive method is described for the determination and confirmation of zeranol and zearalenone, as well as their isomers and metabolites, in edible animal tissue. The analytes are extracted from tissue with methanol, hydrolyzed enzymatically, cleaned up by acid-base partitioning, determined by liquid chromatography (LC) with electrochemical (EC) detection, and confirmed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). LC analysis is performed by isocratic elution with a buffered mobile phase using a Nova-Pak reverse-phase C18 column with amperometric EC detection at +0.90 V. Capillary GC/MS analysis of the trimethylsilyl derivatives provides mass spectral confirmations.  相似文献

The authenticity of vegetable oils consumed in Slovenia and Croatia was investigated by carbon isotope analysis of the individual fatty acids by the use of gas chromatography-combustion-isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC/C/IRMS), and through carbon isotope analysis of the bulk oil. The fatty acids from samples of olive, pumpkin, sunflower, maize, rape, soybean, and sesame oils were separated by alkaline hydrolysis and derivatized to methyl esters for chemical characterization by capillary gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) prior to isotopic analysis. Enrichment in heavy carbon isotope ((13)C) of the bulk oil and of the individual fatty acids are related to (1) a thermally induced degradation during processing (deodorization, steam washing, or bleaching), (2) hydrolytic rancidity (lipolysis) and oxidative rancidity of the vegetable oils during storage, and (3) the potential blend with refined oil or other vegetable oils. The impurity or admixture of different oils may be assessed from the delta(13)C(16:0) vs. delta(13)C(18:1) covariations. The fatty acid compositions of Slovenian and Croatian olive oils are compared with those from the most important Mediterranean producer countries (Spain, Italy, Greece, and France).  相似文献

In addition to the already available information on the authenticity of alpha- (1) and beta-ionone (2) from plant tissues, there is an interest in the stable isotope data of 1 and 2 available by synthesis from citral and acetone, as European Union regulations, in contrast to the United States and other countries, do not allow a product to be declared as 'natural' that has been chemically synthesized (e.g., by using a natural catalyst) from natural educts. Analyses performed by on-line capillary gas chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry in the combustion and pyrolysis modes (HRGC-C/P-IRMS) as well as by elemental analyzers (EA-C/P-IRMS) measuring delta(13)C(V)-PDB and delta(2)H(V)-SMOW values provide for the first time isotope data of such 'natural' 1 and 2 as well as of synthetic and 'ex plant' alpha-ionol (3). The isotope data recorded for synthesized 1 and 2 reflected the influence of the origin of the used citral, whereas that of acetone was less remarkable. For instance, 'natural' 1 ex citral from lemongrass showed, as expected for a C4 plant, an enriched delta(13)C(V)-PDB value of -18.5 per thousand. In addition, the use of synthetic citral resulted in an enriched delta(2)H(V)-SMOW value of -43 per thousand, whereas with citral ex Litsea cubeba and ex lemongrass values of -242 and -232 per thousand, respectively, were recorded. IRMS analyses of 'natural' 2 revealed delta(13)C(V)-PDB and delta(2)H(V)-SMOW values that were nearly identical to that recorded for 'natural' 1. As to both 1 and 2, variations of synthesis conditions led to distinct changes in the delta(13)C(V)-PDB but not the delta(2)H(V)-SMOW values. Synthetic 3 showed delta(13)C(V)-PDB and delta(2)H(V)-SMOW values of -24.5 and -184 per thousand, respectively. These data differed from those found in raspberry fruit under study (n = 8), that is, ranging from -33.6 to -36.6 per thousand for delta(13)C(V)-PDB and from -200 to -225 per thousand for delta(2)H(V)-SMOW. The values determined additionally for 1 and 2 in raspberry fruit samples ranged from -30.3 to -35.1 per thousand and from -176 to -221 per thousand for delta(13)C(V)-PDB and delta(2)H(V)-SMOW, respectively, and thus corresponded to the already known literature information.  相似文献

The natural abundance 2H NMR spectra of extractive coumarin 10 and of its dihydroderivative melilotol 11 produced by baker's yeast reduction has been compared with synthetic materials. Diagnostic for the differentiation of 10 are the (D/H)beta values, which are in the 128.1-133.6 ppm interval for the natural compounds but 258.5 and 189.8 ppm for the synthetic materials. Such a dramatic difference is also found for methyl cinnamate 12, which shows (D/H)beta values of 127.2 and 515.8 ppm, respectively. In extractive 10, the ratio (D/H)4para/(D/H)6ortho = 1.24 is similar to that observed in structurally related salicin and methyl salicylate. Coumarin 10 is transformed in salicyl alcohol 9, providing diacetate 14, showing in the natural series the trend (D/H)3meta > (D/H)4para > (D/H)5meta approximately (D/H)6ortho. A similar trend is shown also by the synthetic 10. A clear distinction between extractive and synthetic 10 is obtained through delta18O determinations on 10 and on chroman 13. The bulk delta18O values in the extractive series of 10 are 20.3, 23.6, and 22.6 per thousand, while those of the aromatic oxygen are 2.3, 0.5, and -0.5 per thousand. In the synthetic sample, the values are 12.6 and 5.6 per thousand, respectively. As a final product, the reduction of 10 leads to the dihydroderivative 11. Both the baker's yeast reduction and the catalytic hydrogenation lead to a marked decrease of the deuterium content of 11, which is stronger for the beta-position than for the alpha-position.  相似文献

The delta15N(AIR) and delta2H(VSMOW) data for several alkylpyrazines formed during the roasting process of coffee are reported. Samples of commercially available roasted (n = 9) as well as self-roasted (n = 8) coffee beans (Coffea arabica L. and Coffea canephora var. robusta) of different origins were investigated. By use of extracts prepared by simultaneous distillation extraction (SDE) and subsequently fractionated by liquid chromatography on silica gel, on-line capillary gas chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry was employed in the combustion (C) and pyrolysis (P) modes (HRGC-C/P-IRMS) to determine the delta15N(AIR) and delta2H(VSMOW) values, respectively. In addition to the constituents of coffee beans, data for commercial synthetic alkylpyrazines and substances declared to be "natural" were determined. The delta15N(AIR) data for coffee alkylpyrazines under study-2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine (1) and 2-ethyl-6-methylpyrazine (2) (measured as sum 1/2), 2-ethyl-3-methylpyrazine (3), 2-methylpyrazine (4), 2,5-dimethylpyrazine (5) and 2,6-dimethylpyrazine (6) (measured as sum 5/6), and 2,3-dimethylpyrazine (7), as well as 2,3,5-trimethylpyrazine (8)-varied in the range from +8.3 to -10.2 per thousand, thus revealing their biogeneration from amino acids (delta15N(AIR) ranging from +8 per thousand to -10 per thousand). The delta2H(VSMOW) values were determined in the range from -5 per thousand to -127 per thousand. Owing to the analytical differentiation observed between coffee alkylpyrazines and synthetic/"natural" samples of 3, 4, and 7, authenticity assessment of coffee-flavored products seems to be promising, provided that extended data will be available in the future. In the literature, there were no IRMS data available for the alkylpyrazines (1-8) under study.  相似文献

The distribution and natural abundance isotopic (δ15N) content of whole tissue and individual amino acids in plants in a temperate grassland were determined using ion chromatography (IC), continuous flow‐isotope ratio mass spectrometry (CF‐IRMS), and gas chromatography‐combustion‐isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC‐C‐IRMS). The results showed that the selected plants (Lolium perenne, Juncus effusus, and Brachythecium rutabulum) differed in their amino acid content and distribution from the parent grassland soil. Bulk and individual amino acid δ15N isotope signatures were different between the plants, which concurred with their functional strategy in relation to the relative acquisition of available N sources. The individual amino acid δ15N values of histidine and phenylalanine could be used to differentiate between the three plant species.  相似文献

The use of the stable hydrogen and carbon isotope ratios of fermentative ethanol as suitable environmental fingerprints for the regional origin identification of red wines from Valencia (Spain) has been explored. Monovarietal Vitis vinifera L. cvs. Bobal, Tempranillo, and Monastrell wines have been investigated by (2)H NMR and (13)C IRMS for the natural ranges of site-specific (2)H/(1)H ratios and global delta(13)C values of ethanol over three vintage years. Statistically significant interregional and interannual (2)H and (13)C abundance differences have been noticed, which are interpreted in terms of environmental and ecophysiological factors of isotope content variation. Multivariate discriminant analysis is shown to provide a convenient means for integration of the classifying information, high discriminating abilities being demonstrated for the (2)H and (13)C fingerprints of ethanol. Reasonable differentiation results are achieved at a microregional scale in terms of geographic provenance and even grapevine genotypic features.  相似文献

A gas chromatographic (GC) method has been reported for the determination of sulfamethazine residues in cattle and swine tissues. The extracts from this procedure were found to be directly amenable to examination by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), allowing positive confirmation of an apparent residue of sulfamethazine. Chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CIMS) was chosen as the MS technique because it generated an ion indicative of intact sulfamethazine and fragment ions indicative of the amine functionality and sulfanil moiety. Positive ion (PI) chemical ionization mass spectrometry was adequate by itself for a confirmatory technique. Negative ion (NI) chemical ionization mass spectrometry alone could not be used for the confirmatory analysis of sulfamethazine, but it did offer a means to check the quantitative data from the positive ion analyses and provided complementary confirmatory data. Satisfactory recoveries were obtained for sulfamethazine in swine and cattle tissues at the tolerance level of 0.1 ppm. Apparent sulfamethazine residues in control tissues were less than 0.01 ppm.  相似文献

The oxidation of atmospheric methane by methanotrophic bacteria residing in soils constitutes an important terrestrial methane sink with previous studies having revealed the inhibition of microbially mediated methane oxidation in the presence of salt ions. The bacteria responsible for ambient methane oxidation are not amenable to currently available methods of culturing, resulting in the need for a method of in situ analysis. A combination of phospholipid fatty acid (PLFA) analysis and stable isotopic labelling has been employed in this investigation as a means of cultivation-independent bacterial analysis. Soil samples were treated with an ammonium sulfate solution at a concentration that was known to inhibit methane oxidation or with distilled water, serving as a control, and incubated with 13C-labelled methane. PLFAs were analysed by GC/C/IRMS in order to determine their 13C content and, hence, the PLFA distribution of the methane oxidising bacteria. Ammonium sulfate treatment reduced the amount of 13C incorporated into the majority of PLFAs except the i17:0 PLFA in the presence of high concentrations of methane. These results implied a shift in the composition of the methane oxidising bacterial community in the soils treated with ammonium ions, with the treatment appearing to suppress one group of organisms more than another.  相似文献

A laboratory procedure for the analysis of the oxygen-18/oxygen-16 isotope ratios of ethanol derived from sugars and fruit juices by pyrolysis-isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) has been applied to the study of isotopic fractionation induced by the isotope effects of fermentation and distillation. For both processes, an experimental model has been established to describe and explain the observed fractionation phenomena. It is shown that reproducible results can be obtained when appropriate analytical conditions are used. Moreover, the ability of ethanol to act as a reliable indicator of the (18)O/(16)O ratio of sugars in orange juice (and therefore to be used as an internal reference for detecting water addition) is demonstrated both in theory and in practice.  相似文献

Considering the increasing nutritional and commercial importance of carotenoids, there is an interest in developing a reliable method for authenticity assessment of these compounds. Applying isotope ratio mass spectrometry using elemental analysis in the "combustion" (C) and "pyrolysis" (P) modes (EA-C/P-IRMS), the delta (13)C V-PDB and delta (2)H V-SMOW values of selected carotenoids and alpha/beta-carotene-based commercial dietary supplements were determined in comparison to those of synthetic and "natural" references. The delta (13)C V-PDB and delta (2)H V-SMOW values of synthetic beta-carotene samples ( n = 4), ranging from -25.3 per thousand to -26.4 per thousand and from -144 per thousand to -155 per thousand, respectively, differed clearly from the data determined for carotenoids from various natural sources, including C 3 plant material ( n = 9; delta (13)C V-PDB ranging from -28.5 per thousand to -32.8 per thousand and delta (2)H V-SMOW from -180 per thousand to -275 per thousand) and microalgae Dunaliella salina ( n = 1; delta (13)C V-PDB value of -15.6 per thousand and delta (2)H V-SMOW value of -191 per thousand). From five commercial dietary supplements under study, two revealed delta (13)C V-PDB and delta (2)H V-SMOW values in areas as found for synthetic references, and the other three had values near those of biotechnological beta-carotene produced by D. salina. The delta (13)C V-PDB and delta (2)H V-SMOW values recorded for natural lycopene ( n = 4) and lutein ( n = 5) ranged from -31.1 per thousand to -31.8 per thousand and from -180 to -201 per thousand, as well as from -28.8 per thousand to -32.2 per thousand and from -186 per thousand to -245 per thousand, respectively. Synthetic canthaxanthin ( n = 3) exhibited delta (13)C V-PDB and delta (2)H V-SMOW values ranging from -25.0 per thousand to -28.6 per thousand and from -133 per thousand to -153 per thousand, respectively. The EA-C/P-IRMS application of this study showed that the natural stable isotopic composition of carotenoids is a powerful tool for determining their origin.  相似文献

An improved procedure for determining (13)C and (2)H isotope ratios, using gas chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC-IRMS), has been developed for identifying the addition of low cost commercial sugar syrups to apple juices and related products. Isotopic techniques are commonly used to identify the addition of low cost sugars to fruit juices and are difficult to circumvent as it is not economically viable to change the isotopic ratios of the sugars. The procedure utilizes the derivative hexamethylenetetramine, which is produced through chemical transformation of a sugar degradation product and provides position-specific (13)C and (2)H ratios that relate to the parent sugar molecule. The new procedure has advantages over methods using nitro-sugar derivatives in terms of analysis time and sensitivity. The differences between the delta(2)H per thousand and delta(13)C per thousand values of the 100 authentic apple juices and beet and cane commercial sugar syrups permit their addition to be reliably detected.  相似文献
