Twenty-six different kinds of sake samples were collected and analyzed by ESI/MS. The ESI/MS ion peaks were assigned to amino acids, organic acids, and sugars. Principal component analysis was performed using the respective peak intensities obtained by ESI/MS measurements. As a result, the cumulative proportion of the two first principal components was over 70%, and these components could be used for the characterization of sake., Article, Analytical Sciences.26(3):379-382 (2010)}, pages = {379--382}, title = {Electrospray Ionization-Mass Spectrometric Measurement of Sake, a Traditional Japanese Alcohol Beverage, for Characterization}, volume = {26}, year = {2010} }
