[PMID: 38670543 PMCID: PMC11082928 DOI: 10.1021/acs.jafc.4c01276] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/08/2024] [Revised: 04/09/2024] [Accepted: 04/10/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024]
Abstract
Mead was analyzed by using the concept of molecular sensory science for the identification of key odorants. A total of 29 odor-active compounds were identified in mead by using gas chromatography olfactometry (GCO). Flavor dilution (FD) factors of identified compounds ranged from 1 to 16,384, compounds with FD factors ≥32 were quantitated by using stable isotopically substituted odorants as internal standards or external standard method, and odor activity values (OAVs) were calculated. Fifteen compounds showed OAVs ≥1: aldehydes (2-phenylacetaldehyde, 3-(methylsulfanyl)propanal), 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde), esters (ethyl 3-methylbutanoate, ethyl propanoate, ethyl octanoate), alcohols (2-phenylethan-1-ol, 3- and 2-methylbutan-1-ol, 3-(methylsulyfanyl)propan-1-ol), furanons (4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one, 3-hydroxy-4,5-dimethylfuran-2(5H)-one), acids (3- and 2-methylbutanoic acid, acetic acid), 1,1-diethoxyethane, and 4-methylphenol. 2-Phenylacetaldehyde (OAV, 3100) was suggested as the compound with the biggest influence on the aroma of mead, followed by 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one (OAV, 1900), 3-(methylsulfanyl)propanal (OAV, 890), and 2-phenylethan-1-ol (OAV, 680). Quantitative olfactory profile analysis revealed strong honey, malty, and alcoholic impressions. Omission experiments revealed that 3-(methylsulfanyl)propanal, 2-phenylethan-1-ol, 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one, ethyl propanoate, ethyl 3-methylbutanoate, 2-phenylacetaldehyde, 3- and 2-methylbutanoic acid, 3-hydroxy-4,5-dimethylfuran-2(5H)-one, and 4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde were the key odorants in the mead. Determining concentrations of key odorants in important production steps showed that the fermentation and maturation stages had the strongest effect on the formation of mead aroma.

Effect of pH, Reducing Sugars, and Protein on Roasted Sunflower Seed Aroma Volatiles. Foods 2023; 12:4155. [PMID: 38002212 PMCID: PMC10670587 DOI: 10.3390/foods12224155] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2023] [Revised: 11/14/2023] [Accepted: 11/15/2023] [Indexed: 11/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Sunflower seeds are a popular snack in many countries, such as the United States, China, and Spain. Sunflower seeds are typically roasted to create desirable aromas before being eaten. The desirable aromas are created by the Maillard and lipid oxidation reactions. Increasing the volatiles created by these reactions can create a more desirable product, increasing consumer acceptance of sunflower seeds. Seeds were soaked in solutions at pH 4, 7, and 9 and with added glucose, fructose, whey protein isolate, or whey protein concentrate before roasting. The resulting seeds were evaluated by selected-ion flow tube mass spectrometry to determine the volatile concentrations and by an untrained panel of consumers to determine acceptability. Increasing the pH increased the pyrazines but did not affect other volatiles. Adding reducing sugars or whey protein increased most volatiles. The fructose increased dimethylpyrazines, 2-methylpyrazine, and trimethylpyrazine concentrations more than glucose. However, the glucose increased furfural concentration more than fructose. The whey protein concentrate increased volatile levels more than any other treatment. The total Maillard volatiles and Browning index were increased by the same treatments. Sensory indicated that fructose increased desirable aroma the most, followed by whey protein treatments, and both were liked more than the pH 7 control. Optimizing roasting conditions by increasing the pH and reducing sugar and protein content can favor the Maillard reaction conditions, increasing the positive aromas associated with roasted sunflower seeds.

Abstract
Roasting is an important unit operation for the development of characteristic chocolate aroma during manufacturing. However, there is an increase in interest in minimally processed chocolate products due to their potential positive health benefits. The odor-important compounds and sensory characteristics of minimally processed (unroasted) and conventionally roasted dark chocolates were determined by gas chromatography-olfactometry, aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA), and stable isotope dilution analysis (SIDA). Except for acetic acid, all odorants had higher odor-activity values (OAVs) in roasted chocolate. Acetic acid, developed during fermentation and drying, had the highest OAV in both chocolates but was better preserved in unroasted chocolate. Compounds making a greater aroma impact on roasted chocolate compared with unroasted chocolate included dimethyl trisulfide, 2-ethyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazine, and 3-methylbutanal. Nine significant sensory attributes in unroasted and roasted chocolates were identified. Vinegar (aroma) and roasted (aroma and aroma by mouth), sweet (taste), and hardness (texture) attributes differed between unroasted and roasted chocolates. The results of this study enforce the embracement of low thermal processes to showcase the inherent flavor potential of cacao beans but also to support the concept of chocolate "terroir" by potentially preserving important aroma compounds developed during fermentation.

Cake of Japonica, Indica and glutinous rice: Effect of matcha powder on the volatile profiles, nutritional properties and optimal production parameters. Food Chem X 2023; 18:100657. [PMID: 37025417 PMCID: PMC10070511 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2023.100657] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2022] [Revised: 11/12/2022] [Accepted: 03/18/2023] [Indexed: 03/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Matcha addition decreased the relative crystallinity and provided with a refreshing flavor for all types of rice cakes. Matcha also significantly enhanced the phenolic content and the oxidant defense of cakes. Compared with the other two types of rice cakes, the one made of glutinous rice are with the lowest starch digestibility. Adding matcha to rice cakes inhibited the in vitro starch digestion, and a significant decrease in the expected glycemic index (eGI) and an increase in resistant starch (RS) were observed. Besides, according to the results of sensory evaluation, an optimized formulation of matcha rice cake was expected to contain 1.6% matcha, 82% water and steamed for 39 min. These findings suggest that matcha could be a favorable food additive to improve both the flavour and nutritional value of steamed rice cake.

Effects of Soaking on the Volatile Compounds, Textural Property, Phytochemical Contents, and Antioxidant Capacity of Brown Rice. Foods 2022; 11:foods11223699. [PMID: 36429291 PMCID: PMC9689972 DOI: 10.3390/foods11223699] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/21/2022] [Revised: 11/11/2022] [Accepted: 11/16/2022] [Indexed: 11/19/2022] Open
Abstract
Brown rice is a staple whole grain worldwide. Hence, the effects of cooking on the nutritional properties of brown rice are important considerations in the field of public health. Soaking is a key stage during rice cooking; however, different rice cookers use different soaking conditions and the effects of this on the physiochemical properties and nutritional composition of cooked brown rice remain unknown. In this study, the setting of varied soaking conditions was realized by a power-adjustable rice cooker, and the effects of soaking temperature (40, 50, 60 and 70 °C) and time (30 and 60 min) on cooked brown rice were thoroughly analyzed. Textural results revealed that cooked brown rice was softer and stickier after soaking. Grain hardness decreased by increasing the soaking temperature and time. Furthermore, stickiness after soaking for 60 min was higher than that after 30 min, and this decreased with the soaking temperature. There was no significant unpleasant flavor after soaking, and the volatile compound profile between soaked and unsoaked brown rice was similar. Neither soaking temperature nor time had any significant effect on the phytochemical contents (phenolic compounds, α-tocopherol and γ-oryzanol) or antioxidant capacity of cooked brown rice, whereas γ-aminobutyric acid content was effectively preserved within a certain soaking temperature range. Textural properties can be effectively controlled by soaking temperature and time, and nutritional properties remain stable when soaking at 40-70 °C for 30-60 min.

Comparison of Odorants in Beef and Chicken Broth-Focus on Thiazoles and Thiazolines. MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27196712.

Abstract
The shift in consumer landscape towards vegan, vegetarian and flexitarian diets has created an unprecedented challenge in creating meat aroma from plant-based alternatives. The search for potential vegan solutions has thus led to a renewed interest in authentic meat flavour profiles. To gain a better understanding of the qualitative odour differences between boiled beef and boiled chicken, aroma extracts were isolated using Likens-Nickerson simultaneous distillation-extraction (SDE), selected expressly because the in-situ heating of the sample facilitates the capture of aroma intermediates during the cooking process, thereby mimicking the cooking of meat in stocks and stews. The extracts were then analysed by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) and GC-Olfactometry (GC-O). Most of the volatiles identified in this study were sulfur-containing compounds, such as sulfides, thiols, mercaptoaldehydes and mercaptoketones, which are derived from the Maillard reaction. Meanwhile, lipid oxidation results in the formation of unsaturated aldehydes, such as alkenals and alkadienals. Families of thiazoles and 3-thiazolines were found in the extracts. Two novel 3-thiazolines (5-ethyl-2,4-dimethyl-3-thiazoline and 2-ethyl-4,5-dimethyl-3-thiazoline) which may also contribute to the meaty aroma were identified in this work and synthesised from their respective aldehyde and mercaptoketone precursors.

Abstract
Although soy sauce-like flavor and soybean flavor are two key contributors to the flavor of fermented foods, the key compounds of soy sauce-like flavor and soybean flavor and production mechanisms are still poorly understood and need further investigation. In the present study, we found that the Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) BJ3-2 strain has various metabolic properties at different temperatures, and the strain cultured at 37℃ increased the soybean flavor (a special flavor of ammonia-containing smelly distinct from natto) compared with culturing at 45℃ and 53℃. Interestingly, the strain cultured at 45℃ and 53℃ had a higher soy sauce-like flavor than that in 37℃. Moreover, a comparative transcriptome analysis of the strain cultured at 37℃, 45℃, and 53℃ showed transcriptional changes related to secondary metabolites and ABC transporters, which is critical for the amino acid transport and metabolism in B. subtilis. Meanwhile, proteomics and metabolomics profiling showed a marked change in amino acids transport and metabolism. In addition, the metabolic analysis revealed a significant metabolic difference (including sulfur metabolism, glutathione metabolism, nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism, cysteine and methionine metabolism, and pyrimidine metabolism) in the strain cultured at 45℃ and 53℃ compared to 37℃. To sum, this study used the multi-omics profiling tool to investigate the fermentative strains B. subtilis BJ3-2, thus providing a deeper insight into the mechanism of the formation of soy sauce-like flavor and soybean flavor compounds.

Abstract
Broa is a Portuguese maize bread with characteristic sensory attributes that can only be achieved using traditional maize varieties. This study intends to disclose the volatile compounds that are mainly associated with the baking process of broas, which can be important contributors to their aroma. Twelve broas were prepared from twelve maize flours (eleven traditional maize varieties and one commercial hybrid). Their volatile compounds were analyzed by GC×GC–ToFMS (two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry) for an untargeted screening of the chemical compounds mainly formed during baking. It was possible to identify 128 volatiles that belonged to the main chemical families formed during this stage. Among these, only 16 had been previously detected in broas. The most abundant were furans, furanones, and pyranones, but the most relevant for the aroma of broas were ascribed to sulfur-containing compounds, in particular dimethyl trisulfide and methanethiol. Pyrazines might contribute negatively to the aroma of broas since they were present in higher amounts in the commercial broa. This work constitutes the most detailed study of the characterization of broas volatile compounds, particularly those formed during the Maillard reaction. These findings may contribute to the characterization of other maize-based foodstuffs, ultimately improving the production of foods with better sensory features.

Abstract
Capsaicinoids, volatile compounds, and fatty acids were analyzed in red pepper seeds to determine any changes at different roasting temperatures. The contents of capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin decreased as roasting temperatures increased. 3-Ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine, 2,3,5,6-tetramethylpyrazine, 2-methoxy-3-(2-methylpropyl)pyrazine, 1-methylpyrrole, hexanedial, benzeneacetaldehyde, 2-acetylfuran, and butane-2,3-diol were newly detected in red pepper seeds roasted at 100 °C. Concentrations of pyrazines, pyrroles, oxygen-containing heterocyclic compounds, carbonyls, and alcohols increased rapidly in red pepper seeds as the roasting temperature increased. Such compounds could contribute roasted, grilled, and sweet odor notes to roasted red pepper seeds. Linoleic acid was the predominant fatty acid in all red pepper seeds. There were no significant differences in polyunsaturated fatty acids in red pepper seeds as roasting temperature increased. In conclusion, roasting red pepper seeds could be used in thermally processed foods because during roasting their pungency is reduced, desirable savory odors are enhanced, and the levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids remain unchanged.

Abstract
SCOPE Furfuryl alcohol is a heat-induced food contaminant, classified as possibly carcinogenic to humans. The proximal carcinogen 2-sulfoxymethylfuran leads to adduct formation in DNA and proteins (e.g., N-((furan-2-yl)methyl)-Val (FFA-Val) in hemoglobin). METHODS AND RESULTS This study analyzed human erythrocyte samples from two studies for the presence of FFA-Val: the Risks and Benefits of a Vegan Diet study (RBVD; 72 adults) and the ENVIRonmental influence ON early AGEing birth cohort study (ENVIRONAGE; 100 mother-newborn pairs). In the RBVD study, FFA-Val levels are lower in vegans compared to omnivores (median 13.0 vs 15.8 pmol g-1 hemoglobin, p = 0.008), and lower in non-smokers compared to smokers (median 14.1 vs 17.0 pmol g-1 hemoglobin, p = 0.003). In the birth cohort, FFA-Val levels are distinctly higher in maternal compared to newborn samples (median 15.2 vs 2.2 pmol g-1 hemoglobin, p < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS FFA-Val, hitherto detected only in blood samples of mice, is quantifiable in all human samples, indicating a general exposure to furfuryl alcohol. The low adduct levels in blood samples from newborn children suggested that the placenta is a barrier to furfuryl alcohol. Dietary habits and tobacco smoking are two main influencing factors on the formation of FFA-Val, which may be of use as a biomarker of exposure to furfuryl alcohol.

Abstract
Yellow pea (Pisumsativum L.) is an economically rich source of nutrients with health-promoting effects. However, the consumption of pea ingredients is minimal due to their off-flavor characteristics. The present study investigated the effect of Revtech heat treatment on the chemical profile and volatile compounds in split yellow pea flour. Revtech treatment (RT) was applied at 140°C with a residence time of 4 min in dry condition (RT 0%) and in the presence of 10% steam (RT 10%). Both thermal treatments resulted in a significant reduction (p < 0.05) in lipoxygenase activity and the concentration of key beany-related odors such as heptanal, (E)-2-heptenal, 1-octen-3-ol, octanal, and (E)-2-octenal. In addition, RT 10% resulted in a significant reduction in pentanal, 1-penten-3-ol, hexanal, and 1-hexanol compared to untreated flour. The content of known precursors of lipoxygenase such as linoleic and linolenic acids was found in higher concentrations in heat-treated flours, indicating the efficacy of Revtech technology in minimizing the degradation of polyunsaturated fatty acids. No significant changes in the amino acid composition or the 29 selected phenolic compounds in pea flours were observed with Revtech processing except for two compounds, caffeic acid and gallocatechin, which were found at higher concentrations in RT 0%. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Thermal processing of split yellow pea flours at 140°C using Revtech technology successfully decreased the concentrations of volatile compounds responsible for beany off-flavor while improving the nutritional quality of studied yellow pea flours. These results provide valuable information to the food industry for developing novel pulse-based products with enhanced sensory characteristics.

Abstract
Molecular recognition is a fundamental principle in biological systems. The olfactory detection of both food and predators via ecological relevant odorant cues are abilities of eminent evolutionary significance for many species. Pyrazines are such volatile cues, some of which act as both human-centered key food odorants (KFOs) and semiochemicals. A pyrazine-selective odorant receptor has been elusive. Here we screened 2,3,5-trimethylpyrazine, a KFO and semiochemical, and 2,5-dihydro-2,4,5-trimethylthiazoline, an innate fear-associated non-KFO, against 616 human odorant receptor variants, in a cell-based luminescence assay. OR5K1 emerged as sole responding receptor. Tested against a comprehensive collection of 178 KFOs, we newly identified 18 pyrazines and (2R/2S)-4-methoxy-2,5-dimethylfuran-3(2H)-one as agonists. Notably, OR5K1 orthologs in mouse and domesticated species displayed a human-like, potency-ranked activation pattern of pyrazines, suggesting a domestication-led co-evolution of OR5K1 and its orthologs. In summary, OR5K1 is a specialized olfactory receptor across mammals for the detection of pyrazine-based key food odors and semiochemicals.

Abstract
To investigate the key odor-active compounds in children’s soy sauce (CSS), volatile components were extracted by means of solvent extraction coupled with solvent-assisted flavor evaporation (SE-SAFE) and solid-phase microextraction (SPME). Using gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), we identified a total of 55 odor-active compounds in six CSSs by comparing the odor characteristics, MS data, and retention indices with those of authentic compounds. Applying aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA), we measured flavor dilution (FD) factors in SE-SAFE isolates, ranging from 1 to 4096, and in SPME isolates, ranging from 1 to 800. Twenty-eight odorants with higher FD factors and GC-MS responses were quantitated using the internal standard curve method. According to their quantitated results and thresholds in water, their odor activity values (OAVs) were calculated. On the basis of the OAV results, 27 odorants with OAVs ≥ 1 were determined as key odorants in six CSSs. These had previously been reported as key odorants in general soy sauce (GSS), so it was concluded that the key odorants in CSS are the same as those in GSS.

Abstract
Increased consumption of instant foods has led to research attention, especially rice-based instant foods. Starch, one of the most important components of rice, significantly affects food quality. However, the mechanisms by which starch contributes to rice-based instant foods flavor are poorly understood in many cases. The review aims to describe the common mechanisms by which starch contributes to food flavor, including participating in flavor formation, and affecting flavor release throughout starch multiscale structure: particle morphology, crystal structure, molecular structure. Five specific examples of rice-based instant foods were further analyzed to summarize the specific contribution of starch to flavor, including instant rice, fermented rice cake, rice noodles, fried rice, and rice dumplings. During foods processing, reducing sugars produced by heating or enzymatic hydrolysis of starch participate in Maillard reaction, caramelization and thermal degradation, which directly or indirectly affect the formation of flavor compounds. In addition, adsorption by granules, encapsulation by retrograded V-type crystal, and controlled release by starch gel all contribute to rice-based instant food flavor qualities. These mechanisms jointly contribute to flavor compounds formation and release. Proper theoretical application and improved processing methods are needed to promote the high-quality, mechanization, and automation of rice-based instant foods production.

Abstract
This study presents the effect of the application of high-power ultrasound to crushed grapes, at a winery-scale, on the content of varietal volatile compounds (free and glycosidically-bound) in musts and on the overall aroma of wines. Two different frequencies (20 kHz and 28 kHz) were tested and the combination of grape sonication and different maceration times on wine aroma was also evaluated. The volatile compounds were isolated by solid phase extraction and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, carrying out a sensory evaluation of wines by quantitative descriptive analysis. Sonication produced an increase in the concentration of free varietal compounds such as C6 alcohols, terpenes and norisoprenoids in musts and also in wines made by 48 h of skin maceration, being less efficient in the extraction of the bound fraction. Fermentation compounds were also positively affected by ultrasound treatment, although this effect was variable depending on the frequency used, the maceration time and the type of compound. All the wines made from sonicated grapes had better scores in the evaluated olfactory attributes with respect to the control wines. Our results indicate that sonication could produce an increase in the content of some volatile compounds of sensory relevance, obtaining wines with an aroma quality similar or higher than those elaborated with longer maceration times.

Characterizing the volatile compounds of different sorghum cultivars by both GC-MS and HS-GC-IMS. Food Res Int 2020; 140:109975. [PMID: 33648211 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2020.109975] [Citation(s) in RCA: 48] [Impact Index Per Article: 12.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/07/2020] [Revised: 11/22/2020] [Accepted: 12/06/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022]
Abstract
The current study applied both GC-MS and GC-IMS for characterizing the volatile compounds of six Australian sorghum cultivars. For raw sorghum, the result of GC-MS showed that the ester compounds were abundant in six raw samples. Among these esters, the content of hexadecanoic acid ethyl ester was highest in all of the raw samples. Compound 3-octanone only existed in Apollo, Bazley and Liberty, and 2-undecanone was found to be in MR43. The result of GC-IMS showed that the signals of benzaldehyde, 2,3-butanedione were generally noted in the six raw samples. In general, The Apollo and Buster had more volatile compounds, followed by Bazley and Liberty. In contrast, MR43 and G44 had the least volatile compounds. For cooked sorghums, more fatty aldehydes are formed compared to its corresponding raw sample, in which the current data indicated that 40 volatile compounds were identified by GC-MS, and 11 of them were identified as the key aroma compounds (OAVs > 1). More important, the variation in the compounds of hexanal, heptanal, octanal, 2-heptenal, nonanal, trans- 2-octenal, benzeneaceldehyde, (E)-2-nonenal, 1-octen-3-ol, 1-pentanol, 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol and 2-pentylfuran might be applied for explaining the aroma characteristics among the six sorghum cultivars. The result of GC-IMS showed that 26 volatile compounds but not in the results from GC-MS detection, indicating the advantage of the methodology combination for a better understanding the impact of cultivars and cooking on volatile characteristics of the sorghums.

Abstract
This study aimed to analyse trans fatty acid (TFA) levels and key volatile flavour substances in fried youtiao prepared using five common edible oils and the relationship between TFAs and key volatile flavour substances via partial least squares regression (PLSR) analysis. Total TFA levels were the highest on using rapeseed oil during frying (approximately 1.061 mg/g), probably owing to the high content of unsaturated fatty acids in rapeseed oil and their instability. In total, 22 key flavour substances were detected. Although the flavours differed with different oils, flavour compounds including 3-(methyl sulphide) propionic aldehyde, (E,E)-2,4-sebacedienal, nonaldehyde, and 3-hydroxy-2-butanone contributed to overall flavour. PLSR analysis revealed that C18:2, 9t12t is produced with (E)-2-hexenaldehyde and nonaldehyde. (E,E)-2,4-sebacedienal levels were positively correlated with those of C18:2, 9c12t and C18:2, 9t12c. Most aliphatic aldehydes and pyrazines yield C18:3, 9t12t15c TFAs. These results indicate the characteristic flavour profile of youtiao and promote the preparation of healthy fried food.

Pyrazines: A diverse class of earthy-musty odorants impacting drinking water quality and consumer satisfaction. WATER RESEARCH 2020; 182:115971. [PMID: 32554269 DOI: 10.1016/j.watres.2020.115971] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/11/2020] [Revised: 05/16/2020] [Accepted: 05/23/2020] [Indexed: 06/11/2023]
Abstract
The presence of earthy-musty odors in drinking water is a major concern for water suppliers and consumers worldwide. While geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol are the most studied earthy-musty odor-causing compounds, pyrazine and its alkyl and methoxy compounds possess similar odors and are widely distributed in nature, foods, and beverages. In this study, odor characteristics of pyrazines and their presence in natural and treated waters were determined. Pyrazine, 2,6-dimethyl-pyrazine (DMP), 2,3,5-trimethyl-pyrazine (TrMP), 2-ethyl-5(6)-methyl-pyrazine (EMP), 2,3,5,6-tetramethyl-pyrazine (TeMP), 2-isobutyl-3-methoxy-pyrazine (IBMP) and 2-isopropyl-3-methoxy-pyrazine (IPMP) were measured in source and finished drinking water across China. 2-Methoxy-3,5-dimethyl-pyrazine (MDMP), IBMP, and IPMP were investigated in rivers in Virginia, USA. The results showed that "musty" and "sweet" were the most common descriptors for pyrazine, DMP, MDMP, TrMP, and TeMP. While IBMP and IPMP were never detected in 140 source or drinking water samples from across China, pyrazine, DMP, MDMP, TrMP, and TeMP occurred throughout with concentrations of n.d.-62.2 ng/L-aq in source water and n.d.-39.6 ng/L-aq in finished water. IBMP, IPMP, and MDMP were present in two Virginia rivers; MDMP occurred in 18% of the samples with concentrations of n.d.-4.4 ng/L, many of which were above the aqueous odor threshold of 0.043 ng/L MDMP. The removal efficiencies through conventional water treatment were poor, ranging from negative removals to ∼10%. Advanced oxidation water treatment could only remove EMP and TrMP. The widespread presence of earthy-musty-sweet pyrazines in source and drinking waters on two continents, their poor removal during water treatment, and ng/L odor threshold concentrations confirm their potential to be T&O issues for consumers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Because of its high nutritional value and good sensory properties, fragrant rice is very popular all over the world. The aroma and taste of fragrant rice play an essential role in its sensory properties. However, there has been a lack of studies on flavor changes in fragrant rice during storage. RESULTS Hexanal, nonanal, benzaldehyde, hexadecanoic acid, and methyl ester, were identified as aroma-active compounds in fresh fragrant rice. After storage, more than 100 volatile compounds can be identified. The results indicated that, at high-temperature storage, volatile compounds such as aldehydes, ketones, and furans increased, which led to a deterioration in rice quality. Marker compounds of flavor deterioration, methyl palmitate, 2-methyl-propanoic acid, and 3-hydroxy-2,2,4-trimethylpentyl ester, were determined by principal component analysis. In addition to threonine and proline, the other 14 amino acids contributed to the taste of fragrant rice during storage. Sucrose is the only main contributor to the sweetness of Daohuaxiang 2, whereas glucose and fructose had a little sweet taste contribution during storage. The electronic nose (e-nose) and the electronic tongue (e-tongue) could distinguish samples with different storage conditions. CONCLUSION Different storage conditions can cause flavor differences in fragrant rice. Especially under high-temperature storage, volatile compounds such as aldehydes, ketones, and furans increase, which is an important reason for the deterioration in the quality of fragrant rice during storage. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

The superiority of ultrapasteurization over conventional heat treatments regarding Riceberry beverage aroma. J Food Sci 2020; 85:1764-1771. [PMID: 32406938 DOI: 10.1111/1750-3841.15151] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2020] [Revised: 03/30/2020] [Accepted: 04/02/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
The novel discovery of p-hydroxyphenylbutan-2-one (berry note) in Riceberry aroma was characterized by gas chromatography-olfactometry and gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Odor activity values and aroma extract dilution analysis revealed the high potency of this ketone, vanillin, and guaiacol found within the purple rice. Furthermore, ultrapasteurization (UP), high-temperature short-time (HTST) pasteurization, and ultrahigh-temperature (UHT) sterilization effects on rice beverage aroma were analyzed using Riceberry as a sample. Riceberry's key odorants also remained the primary aromatic contributors in beverage models. Although descriptive sensory analysis showed a slightly lower musty note intensity in HTST beverages compared to the UP sample, their flavor dilution chromatograms were similar. Cluster analysis and R-index ranking test further confirmed aroma similarities during storage. Stored samples sterilized via UHT experienced certain potential off-odors, including acetic acid, propanoic acid, and indole, as opposed to the other beverages. UP was therefore superior to HTST and UHT by extending beverage shelf life without any undesirable odors. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: Ultrapasteurization (UP) retains Riceberry aroma characteristic in beverages and requires minimal modifications beyond conventional pasteurization. UP beverages also surpass those of high-temperature short-time and ultrahigh-temperature by extending shelf life with no noticeable off-odors. In addition, the discovery of p-hydroxyphenylbutan-2-one and the other aroma-active compounds of Riceberry aroma should prove valuable for flavor creation, rice breeding, and rice quality standards.

Abstract
Consumer demands for plant-based products have increased in recent years. However, their consumption is still limited due to the presence of off-flavor compounds, primarily beany and green notes, which are mainly associated with the presence of aldehydes, ketones, furans, and alcohols. To overcome this problem, fermentation is used as a lever to reduce off-flavors. A starter culture of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) was tested in a 4% pea protein solution with one of the following yeasts: Kluyveromyces lactis, Kluyveromyces marxianus, or Torulaspora delbrueckii. The fermented samples were evaluated by a sensory panel. Non-fermented and fermented matrices were analyzed by gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry to identify and quantify the volatile compounds. The sensory evaluation showed a significant reduction in the green/leguminous attributes of pea proteins and the generation of new descriptors in the presence of yeasts. Compared to the non-fermented matrix, fermentations with LAB or LAB and yeasts led to the degradation of many off-flavor compounds. Moreover, the presence of yeasts triggered the generation of esters. Thus, fermentation by a co-culture of LAB and yeasts can be used as a powerful tool for the improvement of the sensory perception of a pea protein-based product.

Abstract
To reduce food loss from stored products by insect attack, monitoring and early detection of insects are essential. Presently, monitoring with pheromone traps is the primary method for detection; however, traps are effective only after the insects propagate. Detection and identification of the early volatile biomarkers arising from insect-infested brown rice was performed in this study to develop an alternative detection strategy. Brown rice was infested with eggs of seven insect species, including Sitophilus zeamais and Plodia interpunctella. Infested rice emitted at least one of the volatile compounds prenol, isoprenol, dimethyl disulfide, and dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS). In particular, isopentenols were generated by moths within one week of infestation, whereas they were not released from non-infested rice. DMTS was detected from all insect-infested brown rice, especially S. zeamais and P. interpunctella. These volatiles are potential early biomarkers for the presence of insects in brown rice.

Abstract
The roasted and ground root of the chicory plant (Cichorium intybus), often referred to as chicory coffee, has served as a coffee surrogate for well over 2 centuries and is still in common use today. Volatile components of roasted chicory brews were identified by direct solvent extraction and solvent-assisted flavor evaporation (SAFE) combined with gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O), aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA), and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A total of 46 compounds were quantitated by stable isotope dilution analysis (SIDA) and internal standard methods, and odor-activity values (OAVs) were calculated. On the basis of the combined results of AEDA and OAVs, rotundone was considered to be the most potent odorant in roasted chicory. On the basis of their high OAVs, additional predominant odorants included 3-hydroxy-4,5-dimethyl-2(5H)-furanone (sotolon), 2-methylpropanal, 3-methylbutanal, 2,3-dihydro-5-hydroxy-6-methyl-4H-pyran-4-one (dihydromaltol), 1-octen-3-one, 2-ethyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazine, 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone (HDMF), and 3-hydroxy-2-methyl-4-pyrone (maltol). Rotundone, with its distinctive aromatic woody, peppery, and "chicory-like" note was also detected in five different commercial ground roasted chicory products. The compound is believed to an important, distinguishing, and characterizing odorant in roasted chicory aroma. Collectively, a group of caramel- and sweet-smelling odorants, including dihydromaltol, cyclotene, maltol, HDMF, and sotolon, are also thought to be important aroma contributors to roasted chicory aroma.

Abstract
Vegetal drinks as a substitute for milk consumption are raising striking interest in the food industry. Soy and rice drinks are the most successful milk substitutes but are low in protein and fiber contents, are rich in sugars, and their cultivation systems are unsustainable; thus, alternative vegetal sources to resolve these limits must be found. A winning candidate could be hemp seed, which is a powerhouse of nutrients, is sugarless, rich in fiber and proteins, and little land and nutrients demanding. The aim is to develop novel drinks obtained from hemp seeds mixed or not with soy and rice and fermented with probiotics (Lactobacillus fermentum, Lb. plantarum, and Bifidobacterium bifidum). The drinks were characterized for their microbial growth, by means of culture-dependent and -independent techniques, and for their volatilome, by means of solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) analysis. The results showed that hemp seed drinks have a specific aroma and its compounds are dependent on the type of formulation and to the probiotic used. For example, in hemp seed drinks, 2-heptanol, 2-methyl, 2,4-decadienal, 2-butanone, 3-hydroxy, 2,3-butanedione, and propanoic acid were fine descriptors of probiotics fermentations. Multivariate analysis of volatile metabolites and their correlation to some physiological parameters and nutritional values offered a novel approach to assess the quality of functional hemp drinks which could result in a decisional tool for industrial applications.

Abstract
To characterize the aroma components of Sachima and provide insight into the influence of egg on the flavor of Sachima, the key aroma-active compounds in four commercial egg flavor Sachimas with different egg content, which named Premium, Classical, Whole egg, and Egg yolk, were identified using GC-MS-O analysis, aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA) combined with sensory evaluation. In total, 75 volatile compounds were identified by GC-MS, including 26 compounds were revealed of having aroma activities by AEDA/GC-O. The major volatile compounds in Sachima were the aldehydes and heterocyclic compounds. The OAV further revealed the significant activity of eight key aroma-active compounds include 2-methylbutanal, 3-methylbutanal, hexanal, n-propylacetate, 2-pentylfuran, 2-ethylpyrazine, nonanal, and benzaldehyde. The OAV of 2-methylbutanal and 3-methylbutanal were much higher in Premium sample that has the most egg content, than that in other samples, whereas hexanal was the highest in Whole egg samples. The plot analyzed by PLS suggest that the Premium sample with more egg content was shown more complicated flavor than other kind of Sachima. Practical applications Sachima is a type of famous sweet Chinese traditional pastries. The flavor and texture of this kind of pastry were appreciated by all age group, especially for almost all elderly Chinese. Because Sachima is not only a suitable food that easy to chew, but a type of food which filled with childhood memory. Egg flavor of Sachima was always the most popular and classic flavor category. However, the characteristic aroma compounds of Sachima-one of the most important factor of the Sachima's quality-have been still uncovered and had not been identified yet, not to mentioned the comparison between different egg content in Sachima. What's more, GC-MS-O/AEDA analysis has been always a very effect and well-known method for aroma compounds analysis. This study trying to find the contribution of eggs to Sachima and the key aroma-active compounds of Sachima, so as to provide some useful information for practical production and flavor quality improving.

Abstract
Cooked pork products, i.e., sliced cooked hams maintained under modified-atmosphere-packaging (MAP), were analysed both microbiologically and with respect to volatile levels during storage. Three storage temperature ranges were compared (4-6 °C, 7-9 °C, and 11-13 °C), representing different refrigeration conditions at household level. The microbial loads were determined by plating samples on six different agar media, followed by (GTG)5-PCR fingerprinting of genomic DNA of selected isolates, and identification of representative isolates by 16S rRNA, pheS, and rpoA gene sequencing. Carnobacterium maltaromaticum, Lactobacillus sakei, and Serratia proteamaculans were the major bacterial species found among the 619 isolates identified. The volatiles produced during storage were followed by selected ion flow tube-mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS) and the identity of the volatiles was confirmed by headspace solid-phase microextraction combined with gas chromatography and time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-TOF-MS). SIFT-MS analysis showed that volatiles, such as 2,3-butanediol, acetoin, and ethanol, may serve as potential markers for spoilage development. Differences in volatile production between samples were likely due to discrepancies in the initial microbial load and the effect of storage conditions. In conclusion, this study combines the use of new mass spectrometric techniques to examine volatile production during spoilage as an additional source of information during microbiological community analysis.

Abstract
The aim of the present study was to assess the malodorous spoilages of Spanish-style green table olives through microbial and metabolite composition using current measuring techniques (e.g., high-throughput DNA sequencing, headspace solid-phase microextraction combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry). Under different alkaline and washing conditions, the spoilage fermentations were reproduced with Gordal and Manzanilla olive cultivars using a low salt concentration (71 g L−1 NaCl) in the initial brine. The degradation of lactic acid and significant increases in volatile fatty acids and phenols were found in all the spoiled samples in comparison with the unspoiled control samples. According to high-throughput DNA sequencing, Cardiobacteriaceae and Ruminococcus were the dominant bacteria in the spoiled samples. PLS regression and Pearson’s correlation coefficient analyses revealed positive and negative correlations among microbial communities, metabolites, and sensory spoilage descriptors. Notably, the “zapatera” descriptor was significantly associated with Propionibacterium, which was positively correlated with acetic acid, propionic acid, succinic acid, and methyl propanoate; while the “butyric” descriptor exhibited a significant positive relationship with the genus Ruminococcus, which gave an almost significant correlation with propionic and butyric acids.

Characterization of Aroma-Active Compounds in Seed Extract of Black Cumin ( Nigella sativa L.) by Aroma Extract Dilution Analysis. Foods 2018; 7:E98. [PMID: 29954052 PMCID: PMC6068864 DOI: 10.3390/foods7070098] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/25/2018] [Revised: 06/26/2018] [Accepted: 06/26/2018] [Indexed: 01/19/2023] Open
Abstract
Turkish Nigella sativa L. seed extracts were used to detect the aroma and key odorant compounds of the spice using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-olfactometry (GC-MS-O). Volatile compounds were extracted by the purge and trap extraction (PTE) method. A total of 32 volatile compounds consisting of different chemical classes acids (13), alcohols (7), phenols (3), terpene (1), esters (2), ketones (2), aldehyde (1), lactone (1) and hydrocarbons (2) were determined. The amounts of volatile compounds were found to be 21,544 µg kg−1. The application of aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA) revealed the presence of 13 odor-active compounds alcohols (2), carboxylic acids (4), phenols (2), terpene (1), ketone (1), hydrocarbon (1) and unknown compounds (2) in Nigella sativa L. extract. Flavor dilution (FD) factors of key odorants ranged between 4 and 1024, while odor activity values (OAV) were in the range of 1.0 to 170.8. Acetoin was the only aroma-active ketone detected in Nigella sativa L. seed extracts. It had the strongest aroma (FD = 1024) and provided a buttery odor. This compound represented the most abundant compound of overall aroma profile with a concentration of 9394 µg kg−1, followed by isobutanoic acid (FD = 512 with a concentration of 218 µg kg−1) and contributed a powerful aroma and a cheesy characteristic odor.

Abstract
The use of antioxidants and refrigeration storage in modified atmosphere packaging, MAP, are the main strategies to slow down the oxidative and microbial deterioration of fresh meat. Synthetic antioxidants are commonly used for this purpose, however due to their controversial health effects, natural alternatives for their replacement are being looked for. The main aim of this work is the evaluation of pressurised aqueous extracts from oak wood as natural preservative of pork patties. The effect of different amounts of oak wood extracts (0.05, 0.5 and 1.0%) on the self-life of pork patties packed in MAP in refrigeration during 12 days were studied in comparison with the use of sodium ascorbate as synthetic preservative. Samples treated with oak wood extracts showed lower lipid oxidation, higher antioxidant capacity and an inhibitory effect on the enterobacteria growth. Furthermore, the addition of oak wood extracts resulted in a dramatically decrease of the volatile compounds coming from the lipid oxidation reactions. On the other hand, it is noteworthy that the use of oak wood extracts modified sensorial characteristics. Intensity colour was higher and new sensorial features such as oak wood and sweet spices appeared which were well appreciated.

Abstract
A moisture-sensitive 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline zinc chloride complex (2AP-ZnCl2) was successfully encapsulated by spray-chilling, using a hydrophobic moisture barrier as a practical way to protect the complex and to help facilitate its general use in food applications. Use of octacosane as wall material provided a flavor retention of 65.3%. The results from scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray micro-computed tomography (X-ray micro-CT) indicated desirable morphological characteristics of the matrix type microcapsules. Gas chromatography (GC) and absorbance spectroscopy were used for chemical quantitation of 2AP and ZnCl2, respectively, in the microcapsules. Results revealed no degradation of 2AP occurred as a result of the encapsulation process. This study is the first to demonstrate the feasibility of producing high quality microcapsules from labile flavor complexes by spray-chilling. The use of generally recognized as safe (GRAS) substances, including 2AP and ZnCl2, may allow for widespread commercial use of 2AP as a flavor ingredient.

Abstract
This study provides the first investigation of the physical traits, pasting properties and volatile compounds of Cambodian rice cultivars, including traditional, improved, and improved traditional varieties, allowing for their differentiation as high and low quality rice. Analysis of the grain quality traits illustrates interesting features of traditional varieties and correlations between traits that assist with understanding texture. Untargeted profiling of volatile compounds shows that high quality fragrant varieties not only contain 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline but also several other compounds, including aldehydes, alcohols and 2-alkylfurans that contribute to overall aroma. Moreover, low odour threshold volatile compounds, which can be derived from the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids, were more abundant in the fragrant varieties. The percentage area of both oleic and linoleic acid were found to be significantly different among the rice varieties tested. Such findings suggest that unsaturated fatty acids in milled rice contribute to rice fragrance, and thereby to overall quality.

A hemoglobin adduct as a biomarker for the internal exposure to the rodent carcinogen furfuryl alcohol. Arch Toxicol 2017; 91:3843-3855. [PMID: 28597227 DOI: 10.1007/s00204-017-2005-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.1] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/05/2016] [Accepted: 06/01/2017] [Indexed: 11/25/2022]
Abstract
Furfuryl alcohol is a common food contaminant, which is formed by acid- and heat-catalyzed degradation of fructose and glucose. Its carcinogenic effect in rodents originates most likely from sulfotransferase (SULT)-catalyzed conversion into the mutagenic sulfate ester 2-sulfoxymethylfuran. In this study, a protein adduct biomarker was sought for the medium-term internal exposure to furfuryl alcohol. A UPLC-MS/MS screening showed that the adduct N-((furan-2-yl)methyl)-Val (FFA-Val) at the N-terminus of hemoglobin is a valid target analyte. The Val cleavage by fluorescein isothiocyanate-mediated Edman degradation yielded 3-fluorescein-1-(furan-2-ylmethyl)-5-(propan-2-yl)-2-thioxoimidazolidin-4-one (FFA-Val-FTH), which was characterized by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy. An isotope-dilution method for the quantification of FFA-Val-FTH by UPLC-MS/MS was developed. It was used to study the adduct formation in furfuryl alcohol-treated FVB/N mice and the influence of ethanol and the alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) inhibitor 4-methylpyrazole on the adduct levels. The administration of 400 mg/kg body weight furfuryl alcohol alone led to 12.5 and 36.7 pmol FFA-Val/g Hb in blood samples of male and female animals, respectively. The co-administration of 1.6 g ethanol/kg body weight increased FFA-Val levels by 1.4-fold in males and by 1.5-fold in females. The co-administration of 100 mg 4-methylpyrazole/kg body weight had a similar effect on the adduct levels. A high correlation was observed between adduct levels in hemoglobin and in hepatic DNA samples determined in the same animal experiment. This indicated that FFA-Val is a valid biomarker for the internal exposure to 2-sulfoxymethylfuran, which may be suitable to monitor furfuryl alcohol exposure also in humans.

Identification of aroma volatiles and understanding 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline biosynthetic mechanism in aromatic mung bean ( Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek). PHYSIOLOGY AND MOLECULAR BIOLOGY OF PLANTS : AN INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FUNCTIONAL PLANT BIOLOGY 2017; 23:443-451. [PMID: 28461731 PMCID: PMC5391348 DOI: 10.1007/s12298-017-0414-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2016] [Revised: 12/11/2016] [Accepted: 01/05/2017] [Indexed: 06/07/2023]
Abstract
Mung bean having high food value and easily digestible proteins, is one of the socioeconomically important crop of India. Among the varied cultivars, Sona mung is having aroma and hence popularly cultivated in the pockets of Ganga river basin at Bhutnir char village of Malda District in the West Bengal state. In the present study, aroma volatiles with special reference to 2-acetyl-1-pyrroline (2AP) were analyzed using HS-SPME-GCMS from Sona mung bean and compared with non-scented mung bean (PHULE M-9339). 26 volatiles in seeds of Sona mung and 20 in non-scented mung bean were identified, in which 3,7-dimethyl-6-octenal, (2E)-2-decen-1-ol, 2-ethyl-1-dodecanol and 3,5,5-trimethyl-2-cyclohexene-1-one are first time reported. 0.19 ± 0.001 ppm 2AP was recorded in Sona mung seeds whereas it was not detected in non-scented mung bean. PCA analysis indicated that 2AP, octanal, 1 pentanol, decanal, phenylmethanol and 2-nonen-1-ol were the major contributors in the aroma of Sona mung bean. The significantly higher level proline, methylglyoxal and lower level of BADH2 transcript were detected in Sona mung than non-scented mung, suggesting similar 2AP biosynthesis mechanism in Sona mung bean as reported in scented rice, sorghum and soybean.
