摘要: 以六堡茶陈化加工过程样品(未陈化、陈化1~6 个月)为研究对象,综合运用感官评价、化学定量分析和基于超高效液相色谱-四极杆-静电场轨道阱高分辨质谱的代谢组学等方法,系统探究六堡茶在陈化过程中主要非挥发性成分的变化规律。结果表明,随着陈化时间的延长,六堡茶茶汤色泽逐渐向红浓明亮转变,香气趋于甜陈,滋味愈发醇厚,整体感官品质显著提升。化学定量分析表明,茶多酚、游离氨基酸、咖啡碱和黄酮等化合物含量呈现下降趋势,而茶褐素含量显著上升。采用非靶向代谢组学分析技术在六堡茶陈化过程样中共鉴定出164 种非挥发性化合物;进而基于变量投影重要性和显著性检验筛选出48 种关键差异性代谢物,其中黄嘌呤等9 种代谢物在陈化6 个月后显著上调,而5-甲基尿苷等39 种差异代谢物显著下调。京都基因与基因组百科全书通路富集分析表明,在六堡茶陈化过程中咖啡碱、嘌呤及嘧啶等代谢通路能显著影响关键差异代谢物的相对含量,进而促进六堡茶风味品质的形成。

Abstract: Sensory evaluation, quantitative chemical analysis, and untargeted metabolomics based on ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole exactive orbitrap-mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-Exactive-MS) were applied to investigate the pattern of changes in the major non-volatile components of Liupao tea during the aging process. Tea samples were collected before aging and after 1 to 6 months of aging. The results showed that as aging progressed, the tea infusion gradually turned a deeper and brighter red; the aroma evolved toward a sweeter and more aged profile, and the taste became progressively mellower, with a significant improvement in overall sensory quality. Quantitative chemical analysis revealed that the levels of tea polyphenols, free amino acids, caffeine, and flavonoids decreased with aging time, while that of theabrownins significantly increased (P < 0.001). Metabolomic profiling identified a total of 164 non-volatile compounds, among which 48 were classified as key differential metabolites based on variable importance in projection (VIP) values and statistical significance (P < 0.05). Among these, 9 metabolites such as xanthine were significantly up-regulated after 6 months of aging, while 39 metabolites such as 5-methyluridine were significantly down-regulated. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis revealed that metabolic pathways related to caffeine, purines, and pyrimidines played crucial roles in regulating the relative abundance of these key differential metabolites, thereby contributing to the development of the flavor quality of Liupao tea.
