Abstract
The headspace volatiles produced from buffered and unbuffered cysteine model systems, containing inosine 5'-monophosphate, ribose 5-phosphate, or ribose, were examined by GC-MS. Sulfur compounds dominated the volatiles of all systems and included mercaptoketones, furanthiols, and disulfides. The inosine monophosphate systems produced much lower quantities of volatiles than ribose phosphate or ribose systems. In the systems buffered with phosphate or phthalate buffers, both ribose and ribose phosphate systems gave similar quantities of sulfur volatiles. However, in the absence of buffer, the ribose system was relatively unreactive, especially for volatiles formed via the 2,3-enolization route in the Maillard reaction, where 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-3(2H)-furanone is a key intermediate. A number of keto-enol tautomerisms, which are known to be acid-base-catalyzed, occur in the 2,3-enolization route. This may explain the catalysis of the ribose systems by the buffers. In the ribose phosphate systems, however, Maillard mechanisms probably played a less important role, because ribose 5-phosphate readily dephosphorylated to give 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-3(2H)-furanone on heating and thus provided an easier route to aroma compounds than the Maillard reaction.

Abstract
This paper compares the volatile constituents of model systems containing the important meat aroma precursors cysteine and ribose, with and without either methyl linoleate, an n-6 fatty acid, or methyl alpha-linolenate, an n-3 acid, both of which are present in meat. Many of the volatile compounds formed from the reaction between cysteine and ribose were not formed, or formed in lower amounts, when lipid was present. This may be due to the reaction between hydrogen sulfide, formed from the breakdown of cysteine, and lipid degradation products. In addition, cysteine and ribose modified lipid oxidation pathways, so that alcohols and alkylfurans were formed rather than saturated and unsaturated aldehydes. Several volatile compounds, which have been found at elevated levels in cooked meat from animals fed supplements high in n-3 acids, were formed when methyl alpha-linolenate reacted with cysteine and ribose. The possible effects of increasing the n-3 content of meat upon flavor formation during cooking are discussed.

Abstract
Extrusion temperature (120, 135, and 150 degrees C) and quantity of added sodium hydroxide (0, 3, and 6 g/kg feedstock) were used as variables to study flavor generation in extrusion cooking of wheat flour. In total, 127 volatile components were identified in the extrudates, of which 51 contained sulfur. The levels of pyrroles, thiophenes, thiophenones, thiapyrans, and thiazolines increased at higher extrusion temperatures, whereas furans and aldehydes decreased. The addition of sodium hydroxide also affected the formation of volatile compounds. However, thiophenes, thiophenones, polythiacycloalkanes, thiazoles, thiazolines, pyrroles, and some pyrazines tended to increase with the more alkaline extrusion conditions. Some compounds from lipid-Maillard interactions were identified in the extrudates. Analysis of the volatile components by gas chromatography-olfactometry showed sulfur- and nitrogen-sulfur-containing heterocycles as possible contributors to the sulfury and rubbery odors observed in extrudates produced at the higher temperature and more alkaline conditions.

Abstract
Headspace solid phase microextraction (SPME), using a Carboxen-polydimethylsiloxane fiber, was compared with headspace entrainment on Tenax TA, as a means of examining the aroma constituents of cooked beef. Extracts were analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Headspace entrainment on Tenax extracted higher amounts of most volatiles, particularly low-boiling compounds. However, polar volatiles, such as hydroxyfuranones and hydroxyketones, were present at higher levels in the SPME extracts. Some components were present only in the SPME extracts, including norfuraneol, furaneol, and cyclotene, which are key Maillard reaction intermediates.

Abstract
The irreversible binding of selected sulfur-containing flavor compounds to proteins was investigated in aqueous solutions containing ovalbumin and a mixture of disulfides (diethyl, dipropyl, dibutyl, diallyl, and 2-furfuryl methyl) using solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME). In systems which had not been heated, the recovery of disulfides from the headspace above the protein at the native pH (6.7) was similar to that from an aqueous blank. However, significant losses were observed when the pH of the solution was increased to 8.0. When the protein was denatured by heating, much greater losses were observed and some free thiols were produced. In similar heat-denatured systems at pH 2.0, no losses of disulfides were observed. Disulfides containing allyl or furfuryl groups were more reactive than saturated alkyl disulfides. Interchange reactions between protein sulfhydryl groups and the disulfides are believed to be responsible for the loss of the disulfides.

Abstract
The reaction of 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-3(2H)-furanone (HMF) with cysteine or hydrogen sulfide at pH 6.5 for 60 min at 140 degrees C produced complex mixtures of volatile compounds, the majority of these containing either sulfur or nitrogen. Of the 68 compounds detected, 63 were identified, some tentatively, by GC-MS. Among the identified compounds were thiophenes (10), thiophenones (6), thienothiophenes (5), thiazoles (5), trithiolanes (4), pyrazines (6), and oxazoles (4). More compounds were produced in the reaction of HMF with cysteine (63) than were formed in the reaction with hydrogen sulfide (33). In both systems, thiophenones were major reaction products, accounting for 25-36% of the total volatiles formed. Possible reasons for the differences in the composition of the two systems are discussed. The contributions of these reactions, and their products, to the flavor of heated foods are considered.

Abstract
The volatile aroma compounds in cooked pork were examined using solid-phase microextraction (SPME). Two SPME fibres coated with different stationary phases were used simultaneously to collect aroma compounds from the headspace above the pork. One fibre was coated with 75 microm. Carboxen-polydimethylsiloxane and the other was coated with 50/30 microm divinylbenzene-Carboxen on polydimethylsiloxane. After extraction, the two fibres were desorbed in the injection port of a gas chromatograph sequentially, so that the aroma compounds from both of the fibres could be analysed in one gas chromatogram. This procedure resulted in a chromatogram containing a more complete aroma profile for cooked pork than the chromatograms from either of the fibres on their own. Thirty-six compounds were identified in cooked pork for the first

Abstract
Three batches of oats were extruded under four combinations of process temperature (150 or 180 degrees C) and process moisture (14. 5 and 18%). Two of the extrudates were evaluated by a sensory panel, and three were analyzed by GC-MS. Maillard reaction products, such as pyrazines, pyrroles, furans, and sulfur-containing compounds, were found in the most severely processed extrudates (high-temperature, low-moisture). These extrudates were also described by the assessors as having toasted cereal attributes. Lipid degradation products, such as alkanals, 2-alkenals, and 2, 4-alkadienals, were found at much higher levels in the extrudates of the oat flour that had been debranned. It contained lower protein and fiber levels than the others and showed increased lipase activity. Extrudates from these samples also had significantly lower levels of Maillard reaction products that correlated, in the sensory analysis, with terms such as stale oil and oatmeal. Linoleic acid was added to a fourth oat flour to simulate the result of increased lipase activity, and GC-MS analysis showed both an increase in lipid degradation products and a decrease in Maillard reaction products.

Abstract
2-Alkyl-(2H)-thiapyrans and 2-alkylthiophenes have been identified in the volatiles of cooked beef and lamb. The quantities of both groups of compounds were higher in the meat of animals fed lipid supplements high in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. 2-Alkyl-(2H)-thiapyrans were formed when (E,E)-2,4-dienals (C(6)-C(11)) and hydrogen sulfide were heated at 140 degrees C for 30 min. This confirmed their proposed route of formation in cooked meat from lipid-derived aldehydes and hydrogen sulfide; the latter was produced from the degradation of cysteine, via the Maillard reaction. The mass spectra and NMR spectra of these thiapyrans are reported for the first time. Although 2-alkyl-(2H)-thiapyrans were found to have only low odor potency, the reactions by which they are formed may have important implications for meat flavor. These reactions may remove potent aroma compounds and their intermediates from meat, thus modifying the overall aroma profile.

Abstract
The effect of n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) in beef muscle on the composition of the aroma volatiles produced during cooking was measured. The meat was obtained from groups of steers fed different supplementary fats: (i) a palm-oil-based control; (ii) bruised whole linseed, which increased muscle levels of alpha-linolenic (C18:3 n-3) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA, C20:5 n-3); (iii) fish oil, which increased EPA and docosahexaenoic acid (C22:6 n-3); (iv) equal quantities of linseed and fish oil. Higher levels of lipid oxidation products were found in the aroma extracts of all of the steaks with increased PUFA content, after cooking. In particular, n-alkanals, 2-alkenals, 1-alkanols, and alkylfurans were increased up to 4-fold. Most of these compounds were derived from the autoxidation of the more abundant mono- and di-unsaturated fatty acids during cooking, and such autoxidation appeared to be promoted by increased levels of PUFAs.

Abstract
Reaction of 4-hydroxy-5-methyl-3(2H)-furanone (HMF) with cysteine or hydrogen sulfide at pH 4.5 for 60 min at 140 degrees C produced complex mixtures of volatile compounds, the majority of which contained sulfur. Sixty-nine compounds were identified, some tentatively, by GC/MS. These included disulfides (26), thiols (7), dithiolanones (6), thiophenones (4), dithianones (3), and thienothiophenes (6). The main non-sulfur compounds were 2, 3-pentanedione, 2,4-pentanedione, and 3,4-hexanedione. Both systems produced approximately the same total quantity of volatile compounds, but the reaction containing cysteine gave the larger number of individual compounds, with thiols quantitatively the dominant components. By comparison, the major products formed in the reaction with hydrogen sulfide were the dithiolanones. Reaction pathways are presented for the major products and, where applicable, possible reasons for the differences in composition of the two systems are discussed. The contribution of these reactions, and their products, to the flavor of roasted foods is considered.
