Glycerides are of interest to the areas of food science and medicine because they are the main component of fat. From a chemical sensing perspective, glycerides are challenging analytes because they are structurally similar to one another and lack diversity in terms of functional groups. Furthermore, because animal and plant fat consists of a number of stereo- and regioisomeric acylglycerols, their components remain challenging analytes for chromatographic and mass spectrometric determination, particularly the quantitation of species in mixtures. In this study, we demonstrated the use of an array of cross-reactive serum albumins and fluorescent indicators with chemometric analysis to differentiate a panel of mono-, di-, and triglycerides. Due to the difficulties in identifying the regio- and stereochemistry of the unsaturated glycerides, a sample pretreatment consisting of olefin cross-metathesis with an allyl fluorescein species was used before array analysis. Using this simple assay, we successfully discriminated 20 glycerides via principal component analysis and linear discriminant analysis (PCA and LDA, respectively), including stereo- and regioisomeric pairs. The resulting chemometric patterns were used as a training space for which the structural characteristics of unknown glycerides were identified. In addition, by using our array to perform a standard addition analysis on a mixture of triglycerides and using a method introduced herein, we demonstrated the ability to quantitate glyceride components in a mixture.
