A novel strategy for screening and identifying peptides present in Baijiu was developed based on magnetic solid-phase extraction with magnetic S-doped graphene (M-G-S) as adsorbent combined with ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography with high resolution tandem mass spectrometry. In total, 28 peptides consisting of amino acids from 3 to 9 were preliminarily identified, and significantly higher in the number than that of direct concentration and SPE with C as the adsorbent. Six peptides were confirmed with their corresponding synthetic reference standards by comparing their retention time, high resolution MS/MS spectra, and NMR spectroscopic studies. Parallel reaction monitoring integrated with the internal standard method was utilized to quantify identified peptides with concentrations ranging from 1.14 to 10.25 ng mL, and prediction results of bioactivity comprising antioxidation or ACE inhibitors were obtained. These discoveries were conducive to understanding the versatility benefit of Baijiu and paved the way to study the interaction between peptides and volatile substances.

Endogenous peptides in Baijiu have primarily focused on finished liquor research, with limited attention given to the peptides in base liquor prior to blending. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS) was employed to identify endogenous peptides in the distillates from the first to seventh rounds of soy sauce-flavored Baijiu. Two hundred and five oligopeptides were identified from these distillates, all of which had molecular weights below 1000 Da and were composed of amino acid residues associated with flavor (sweet, sour, and bitter) and biological activity.

Tri-colored Jiangqu, including white (WQ), yellow (YQ), and black (BQ)-color Daqu, significantly influence fresh Baijiu yield and quality. The differences in attributes of these Jiangqu types, sourced from two renowned Baijiu enterprises, were investigated using multi-omics approaches. Color intensity negatively correlated with ammonia nitrogen content, but positively with pyroglutamic acid content.

Degradation of Di (2-ethylhexyl) phthalic acid plasticizer in baijiu by a foam titanium flow reactor attached with hairpin-like structured peptide enzyme mimics.

Because of the significant environmental and health hazards imposed by di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), a common plasticizer, developing safe and green techniques to degrade DEHP plasticizer is of huge scientific significance. It has been observed that environmental contamination of DEHP may also induce serious food safety problems because crops raised in plasticizers contaminated soils would transfer the plasticizer into foods, such as Baijiu. Additionally, when plastic packaging or vessels are used during Baijiu fermentation and processing, plasticizer compounds frequently migrate and contaminate the product.

A Gram-stain-positive actinomycete, designated REN17, was isolated from fermented grains of Baijiu collected from Sichuan, PR China. It exhibited branched substrate mycelia and a sparse aerial mycelium. The optimal growth conditions for REN17 were determined to be 28 °C and pH 7, with a NaCl concentration of 0 % (w/v).
