| Abstract | Due to the economic value and health benefits of the extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), this product is mainly the subject of adulteration by addition of cheaper vegetable oils. Thus, this study evaluated the detection of extra virgin olive samples oil adulterated with oils of canola, sunflower, corn and soybeans through exploratory multivariate analysis. The oil fingerprints were obtained by mass spectrometry with electrospray ionization in positive ion mode (ESI(+)-MS). The mass spectrometry data were analyzed by Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis (HCA). Through the analysis of the loadings obtained in the PCA, it was possible to identify the ratio m/z most important for distinguishing authentic and adulterated oils, as well as the composition related with these samples. Authentic and adulterated samples were classified into different groups by the two methods, indicating that the developed methodologies are alternatives for the quality control of extra virgin olive oils. |
