Xiao Y, Zhang S, Wang X, Zhao X, Liu Z, Chu C, Wang Y, Hu X, Yi J. Characterization of key aroma-active compounds in fermented chili pepper ( Capsicum frutescens L.) using instrumental and sensory techniques. Food Chem X 2024; 23:101581. [PMID: 39040151 PMCID: PMC11260950 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101581] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 06/07/2024] [Accepted: 06/17/2024] [Indexed: 07/24/2024] Open
Abstract
The aroma profile of fermented chili pepper was analyzed using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) coupled with chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O). A total of 19 aroma-active compounds were detected, exhibiting aroma intensities spanning from 1.8 to 4.2. And 12 aroma-active compounds were determined as pivotal odorants through odor activity value (OAV) calculation. Concentrations of these aroma-active compounds were quantified and subsequently employed in reconstructing the aroma profile of fermented chili pepper. Quantitative descriptive sensory analysis and electronic nose analysis proved that the aroma profile of fermented chili pepper was basically reconstituted. Omission experiments confirmed that methyl salicylate, linalool, 2-methoxy-3-isobutylpyrazine, and phenylethyl alcohol were the key aroma-active compounds of fermented chili pepper. Moreover, the perceptual interactions between the key aroma-active compounds were investigated. It was found that methyl salicylate masked the floral aroma, while phenylethyl alcohol had an additive effect on the aroma of linalool and 2-methoxy-3-isobutylpyrazine.

Characterization of the key differential aroma compounds in five dark teas from different geographical regions integrating GC-MS, ROAV and chemometrics approaches. Food Res Int 2024; 194:114928. [PMID: 39232540 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114928] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/29/2024] [Revised: 08/11/2024] [Accepted: 08/14/2024] [Indexed: 09/06/2024]
Abstract
Dark tea (DT) holds a rich cultural history in China and has gained sizeable consumers due to its unique flavor and potential health benefits. In this study, headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), relative odor activity value (ROAV), and chemometrics approaches were used to detect and analyze aroma compounds differences among five dark teas from different geographical regions. The results revealed that the five DTs from different geographical regions differed in types, quantities, and relative concentrations of volatile compounds. A total of 1372 volatile compounds of were identified in the 56 DT samples by HS-SPME-GC-MS. Using ROAV and chemometrics approaches, based on ROAV>1 and VIP>1. Eighteen key aroma compounds can be used as potential indicators for DT classification, including dihydroactinidiolide, linalool, 1,2,3-trimethoxybenzene, geranyl acetone, 1,2,4-trimethoxybenzene, cedrol, 3,7-dimethyl-1,5,7-octatrien-3-ol, β-ionone, 4-ethyl-1,2-dimethoxybenzene, methyl salicylate, α-ionone, geraniol, linalool oxide I, linalool oxide II, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, α-terpineol, 1,2,3-trimethoxy-5-methylbenzene, and 1,2-dimethoxybenzene. These compounds provide a certain theoretical basis for distinguishing the differences in five DTs from different geographical regions. This study provides a potential method for identifying the volatile substances in DTs and elucidating the differences in key aroma compounds.

Wu H, He Z, Yang L, Li H. The Characterization of the Key Aroma Compounds in Non-Smoked Bacon by Instrumental and Sensory Methods. Foods 2024; 13:1260. [PMID: 38672932 PMCID: PMC11049224 DOI: 10.3390/foods13081260] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/26/2024] [Revised: 04/16/2024] [Accepted: 04/17/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
The aroma profiles in non-smoked bacon were investigated via GC-O-MS, GC × GC-TOFMS, and GC-IMS. GC-O-MS is advantageous for detecting aldehydes. GC × GC-TOFMS is more sensitive to hydrocarbons and alcohols, while GC-IMS detects a balanced range of categories. Only 9 of the 239 detected volatiles were identifiable by all three methods. Therefore, the combination of all three methods proved to be the most effective way to comprehensively analyze the aroma profiles of bacon. Recombination and omission tests were performed using aroma compounds with a flavor dilution (FD) factor greater than 27; five volatiles were identified as key aroma compounds in non-smoked bacon, including hexanal, (E,E)-2,4-decadienal, 1-octen-3-ol, dihydro-5-pentyl-2(3H)-furanone, and 3-methyl-butanoic acid. Among these, hexanal and 1-octen-3-ol exhibited relatively high FD factors and odor activity values (OAVs), so they were confirmed as the primary contributors. Meanwhile, seven volatiles contributed to the unique aroma of non-smoked bacon in different regions. The difference in the aroma of bacon in different regions is mainly due to the content of various volatiles rather than the type. A comprehensive analysis of the aroma in non-smoked bacon can reveal theoretical information for improving the process and quality control of the product.

Wu H, He Z, Yang L, Li H. Generation of key aroma compounds in fat and lean portions of non-smoked bacon induced via lipid pyrolysis reaction. Food Chem 2024; 437:137684. [PMID: 37926027 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2023.137684] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/25/2023] [Revised: 09/18/2023] [Accepted: 10/04/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023]
Abstract
This study explored the evolution of key aroma compounds and their lipid precursors in the lean (LN) and fat (FT) portions of non-smoked bacon during hot air drying. The results showed that the LN portion contained most of the aroma compounds in the bacon (>88%). The volatile content of the FT portion increased as the drying time increased, whereas that of the LN portion reached a maximum within 24 h and then decreased. Based on the highest volatile contents (4889.48 ± 202.06 µg/kg) and sensory scores, 24 h was considered the optimal drying time. For key aroma compounds, hexanal and 2,3-octanedione were derived from free fatty acids and polar lipids. Notably, 1-octen-3-ol was generated only from polar lipids in the FT and LN portions. The 2-undecenal and (E, E)-2,4-decadienal were produced by the oxidation of neutral lipids in the FT portion. Dihydro-5-pentyl-2(3H)-furanone was derived from polar lipids in the LN portion. Altogether, these findings provide theoretical insights into improving the aroma of bacon by optimizing raw material selection and processing methods.

Abstract
Nine tea cultivars planted in Enshi were selected and processed into "Lichuan black tea". Sensory evaluation showed that cultivar had the greatest influence on taste and aroma quality, including sweetness, umami and concentration of taste, as well as sweet and floral fragrances of aroma. The non-volatile and volatile components were identified by UPLC-Q-TOF/MS and GC-MS, and PCA analysis showed good separation between cultivars, which could cause the difference in quality. Baiyaqilan, Meizhan and Echa 10 had a floral aroma, with obvious difference in their aromatic composition from other cultivars. Moreover, Echa 10 also had a strong sweet aroma. The key aroma components in Echa 10 (with the largest cultivation area) were further investigated by GC-O-MS combined with odor activity value (OAV) analysis, included β-damascenone, phenylethylaldehyde, nonenal, geraniol, linalool, jasmonone, (E)-2-nonenal, β-cyclocitral, (E)-β-ocimene, methyl salicylate, β-ionone, 2,6,10,10-tetramethyl-1-oxaspiro[4.5]dec-6-ene, citral, β-myrcene, nerol, phenethyl alcohol, benzaldehyde, hexanal, nonanoic acid, and jasmin lactone.
