The aim of this work is to investigate the effect of the ethyl carbamate (EC) content in musalais on the metabolism of rats. Electron beam irradiation was performed to decrease the content of EC in musalais, and Sprague Dawley rats were subjected to intragastric administration of musalais with varying EC content (high, medium, and low groups). Control rats were fed normally without any treatment. Serum and urine samples were analyzed using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Principal component analysis and orthogonal projections to latent structures discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were performed to detect changes in the metabolite profile in the serum and urine in order to identify the differential metabolites and metabolic pathways. The results demonstrated clear differences in the serum and urine metabolic patterns between control and treatment groups. Ions in treatment groups with variable importance in the projection of >1 (selected from the OPLS-DA loading plots) and Ps < 0.05 (Student t test) compared to control group were identified as candidate metabolites. Analysis of the metabolic pathways relevant to the identified differential metabolites revealed that high EC content in musalais (10 mg/kg) mainly affected rats through valine, leucine, and isoleucine biosynthesis and nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism, which were associated with energy metabolism. In addition, this work suggests that EC can induce oxidative stress via inhibition of glycine content.
