Self-cultivated soybean sprouts were stored at 5 °C, 10 °C or 20 °C, and respiratory CO2 production rates were monitored using gas chromatography during storage. Carbonyl compounds (CCs) were analyzed comprehensively using mass-spectroscopic metabolomics analyses. CCs were derivatized using dansyl hydrazine (DH) and were then analyzed using high performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS) with multiplexed multiple reaction monitoring (MRM). In the MRM chromatogram, 171 to 358 peaks were observed from stored soybean sprouts. Principle component analysis and discriminant analysis (PCA-DA) selected the CC-DH derivative ion with a m/z 512 at a retention time of 9.34 min as the most significant metabolite. Searching online metabolomics databases and matching fragment patterns of product ion mass spectra of an authentic standard revealed abscisic acid is a freshness marker of soybean sprouts.}, pages = {588--594}, title = {Identification of a freshness marker metabolite in stored soybean sprouts by comprehensive mass-spectrometric analysis of carbonyl compounds}, volume = {269}, year = {2018}, yomi = {ツタ, ミズキ} }
