Insights into the molecular mechanisms of lipid transformation in sturgeon fillets: Interplay between specific spoilage and dominant bacteria

This study investigates spoilage bacteria's impact on lipid metabolism in sturgeon fillets using UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap-MS/MS-based untargeted lipidomic analysis. A total of 4041 lipid molecules across five classes and 42 subclasses were identified, including glycerophospholipids (GPs, 50.88%), glycerolipids (GLs, 36.08%), sphingolipids (SPs, 10.47%), fatty acyls (FAs, 2.45%), and sterol lipids (STs, 0.12%).
