The metabolic profiles of tobacco leaves of two differential Chinese cultivars from different growing regions were analysed using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). The results of principal component analysis, partial least-squares discriminant analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis showed significant differences in metabolome among three groups, identified 24 differential metabolites, and analysed the metabolic pathway in which the metabolites were involved. Among them, 13 metabolites were associated with geographical regions, including seven organic and fatty acids, four carbohydrates and two secondary metabolites. Four amino acids and two monosaccharides were associated with cultivars and the remaining five metabolites were associated with both. The relationships among the differential metabolites and the distinct characteristics of environment and cultivar were further discussed. In addition, correlation analysis indicated that most of the differential carbohydrates were negatively correlated with the differential amino acids and organic acids. Taken together, this study demonstrates the metabolite differences between two cultivars in different regions, and highlights the effect of environment and cultivar on tobacco leaf metabolism.

Smoking is mainly used to impart desirable flavour, colour and texture to the products. Various food smoking methods can be divided into traditional and industrial methods. The influences of three different smoking methods, including traditional smouldering smoke (TSS), industrial smouldering smoke (ISS) and industrial liquid smoke (ILS), on quality characteristics, sensory attributes and flavour profiles of Harbin red sausages were studied. The smoking methods had significant effects on the moisture content (55.74–61.72 g/100 g), L*-value (53.85–57.61), a*-value (11.97–13.15), b*-value (12.19–12.92), hardness (24.25–29.17 N) and chewiness (13.42–17.32). A total of 86 volatile compounds were identified by headspace solid phase microextraction combined with comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC × GC-qMS). Among them, phenolic compounds were the most abundant compounds in the all sausages. Compared with sausages smoked with smouldering smoke, the ILS sausages showed the highest content of volatile compounds, especially phenols, alcohols, aldehydes and ketones. Principal component analysis showed that the sausages smoked with different methods had a good separation based on the quality characteristics and GC × GC-qMS data. These results will facilitate optimising the smoking methods in the industrial production of smoked meat products.

Halal Authentication

Butter is high priced product; as a consequence, butter can be subjected for adulteration with low price components such as lard. The presence of lard in any products is not allowed for Muslim and Jewish, therefore, its presence must be identified. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry was successfully used to detect and discriminate butter from adulterated with lard. Results were presented in the form of chromatogram. Principal component analysis (PCA) was used to interpret the data and provided a good grouping of samples with 55.8% of the variation accounted for by PC 1 and 21.5% were accounted for by PC 2. All the lard containing samples formed a separate group from the samples that were free of lard. This method can be developed into a rapid method for detecting the presence of lard in food samples for Halal authentication.
