Abstract
The knowledge of the changes in the lipid species in irradiated goat meat is expected to clarify the beneficial effects of irradiation on meat preservation. This study explored the characteristic lipid composition and the changes in irradiated goat meat based on quantitative lipidomics strategy by LC–MS. Totally, 12 subclasses of 174 lipids were identified with significant differences (p < 0.05, VIP > 1), and the absolute quantitative analysis of characteristic lipids was achieved. Significant lipid variables were involved in the major pathways of glycerophospholipid and sphingolipid metabolism. Moreover, significant increases during irradiation were found in total TG, PC, PE, LPE, Cer, LPC and SPH, while the total DG, PS, PG, PI and SM decreased after irradiation. Noteworthily, DHA-enriched PC (18:4/22:6) + H, a core nutrient for human health, exhibited an increase in the irradiated group. These results provide a basis for lipid quantitative alterations in irradiated goat meat and application of irradiation in meat preservation.
