Abstract
Due to the high impact of diet exposure on health, it is crucial the generation of robust data of regular dietary intake, hence improving the accuracy of dietary assessment. The metabolites derived from individual food or group of food have great potential to become biomarkers of food intake (BFIs) and provide more objective food consumption measurements.
Herein, it is presented an untargeted metabolomic workflow for the discovery BFIs in blood and urine samples, from the study design to the biomarker identification. Samples are analyzed by liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS). A wide variety of compounds are covered by separate analyses of medium to nonpolar molecules and polar metabolites based on two LC separations as well as both positive and negative electrospray ionization. The main steps of data treatment of the comprehensive data sets and statistical analysis are described, as well as the principal considerations for the BFI identification.
