Gelatin is a protein molecule that can be hydrolyzed from collagen, animal bones, skin and it easily soluble in water. Source animals for gelatin ingredients must be evaluated, as well as their halal status. The omics method towards gelatin authentication in food and pharmaceutical products has several advantages, including high sensitivity and reliable data. Omics investigation employs the process of breaking down substances into small particles, hence enhancing the ability to detect a greater number of compounds. Omics study has the capability to identify substances at the subclass level, which makes it highly suitable for gelatin authentication. Gelatin lipids, metabolites, proteins, and volatile chemicals can be utilized as references to authenticate gelatin. In adopting gelatin authentication, lipidomics, metabolomics, proteomics, and volatilomics must be combined with chemometrics for data interpretation. Chemometrics can convert omics analysis data into easily viewable data. Chemometric approaches capable of presenting omics analysis data for gelatin authentication include PCA, HCA, PLS-DA, PLSR, SIMCA, and FACS. Visually chemometrically explain the differences in gelatin from different animal sources. The combination of omics analysis and chemometrics is a very promising technology for gelatin authentication in food and pharmaceutical products. |
