Abstract

Lipidomic profiles changes of the Sanhuang chicken breast meat during cold storage (4°C) were analyzed using ultra-high performance liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS)-based lipidomic analysis. Total lipids content decreased 16.8% after storage. Triacylglycerol (TAG), phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) significantly decreased, while lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) and lysophosphatidylethanolamine (LPE) increased. Particularly, there was a trend that TAGs with fatty acids of 16:0 and 18:1, and phospholipids containing 18:1, 18:2 and 20:4 were more likely to be downregulated. The increase in the ratio of lysophospholipids/phospholipids and the degree of lipid oxidation demonstrated oxidation and enzymatic hydrolysis are potentially responsible for the lipid transformation. Moreover, 12 lipid species (P<0.05, VIP>1, FC<0.8 or >1.25) were identified to be associated with the spoilage of meat. Glycerophospholipid metabolism and linoleic acid metabolism were the key metabolic pathways involved in the lipid transformations of chilled chicken.
