Abstract: This study aimed to introduce iKnife rapid evaporative ionization mass spectrometry (REIMS) for high-throughput, fast and real-time detection of lipids in marine foods. The output power of iKnife was optimized and the effects of different air frying temperatures on the composition of fatty acids and phospholipids in hairtail were investigated. The results showed that the optimal electrosurgical output power that provided maximum signal-to-noise ratio for the representative lipid ions was 20 W. The lipid composition of hairtail air-fried at different temperatures was directly detected by REIMS in real time without any pretreatment. The most abundant fatty acid was docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and the most abundant molecular forms of phospholipid were phosphatidyl ethanolamines (PE) and phosphatidyl cholines (PC). In general, the degree of saturation of lipids increased as the air frying temperature increased, and the content of DHA decreased from 38.91% to 30.74%. The cumulative contribution rate of the first and second principal components to total variance obtained by principal component analysis was 78.6%, which could clearly distinguish among different haitail samples. The representative ions were selected to verify the iKnife-REIMS method. The results showed that the method was precise and repeatable, and allowed valid and reliable determination of lipid composition.
