Abstract
Triacylglycerol (TAG) regioisomers containing palmitic acid (16:0) was identified using ultra-performance supercritical fluid chromatography and quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPSFC-Q-TOF-MS) and quantified using calibration curve method and calculation equation method. There were negative linear correlation between [RA-A]+/[RA-A]++[RA-B]+ and content of sn-A-B-A (%) for AAB/ABA type TAGs, [Rsn-1 FA-sn-3 FA]+/[RB-C]++[RA-C]++[RA-B]+ and content of fatty acid (FA) at sn-2 position (%) for BAC/ABC/ACB type TAGs. The difference between calculation equation and standard curve method was acceptable. The TAG regioisomers in human milk, mammalian milk, lard and fish oil were identified and quantified using the developed methods. This study provided a reliable and facile method for analysis of the TAG regioisomers, which was capable of the selection of oil materials for infant formula production.
