Project description:The Maillard reaction intermediates and related phytochemicals in garlic (Allium sativum L.), which was heated for various lengths of time, using X-band (9 GHz) electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were investigated. Non-spin-trap and non-destructive EPR detected the total reaction intermediates (radicals). The g-value of the signal was 2.004. The signal with a peak-to-peak linewidth (ΔHpp) was approximately 0.67 milli Tesla (mT). The values of the intermediates are suggestive of organic compounds. The garlic darkened in color with the increasing number of heating days. Melanoidin, responsible for darkening of the garlic, was detected at an absorbance of 400 nm. Analysis of the correlation between the EPR intensity and melanoidin absorbance showed a good correlation coefficient (0.98). In addition, 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (5-HMF) and total phenolic compounds increased with the increasing number of heating days. Moreover, trace amount of Fe3+ was observed in the black garlic by EPR. Non-destructive EPR is a useful method for evaluating not only Maillard reaction intermediates, but also the pigment associated with the reaction processes.

Project description:Sauce-flavor Baijiu is representative of solid-state fermented Baijiu. It is significant to deeply reveal the dynamic changes of microorganisms in the manufacturing process and their impact on the formation of flavor chemicals correlated with the quality of Baijiu. Sauce-flavor Baijiu manufacturing process can be divided into seven rounds, from which seven kinds of base Baijius are produced. The quality of base Baijiu in the third round is significantly better than that in the first and second rounds, but the mystery behind the phenomenon has not yet been revealed. Based on high-throughput sequencing and flavor analysis of fermented grains, and correlation analysis, the concentrations of flavor chemicals in the third round of fermented grains were enhanced, including esters hexanoic acid, ethyl ester; octanoic acid, ethyl ester; decanoic acid, ethyl ester; dodecanoic acid, ethyl ester; phenylacetic acid, ethyl ester; 3-(methylthio)-propionic acid ethyl ester; acetic acid, phenylethyl ester; hexanoic acid, butyl ester, and other flavor chemicals closely related to the flavor of sauce-flavor Baijiu, such as tetramethylpyrazine. The changes in flavor chemicals should be an important reason for the quality improvement of the third round of base Baijiu. Correlation analysis showed that ester synthesis was promoted by the bacteria genus Lactobacillus and many low abundances of fungal genera, and these low abundances of fungal genera also had important contributions to the production of tetramethylpyrazine. Meanwhile, the degrading metabolic pathway of tetramethylpyrazine was investigated, and the possible microorganisms were correlated. These results clarified the base Baijiu quality improvement of the third round and helped to provide a theoretical basis for improving base Baijiu quality.

Project description:Flavor is amongst the major personal satisfaction indicators for meat products. The aroma of dry cured meat products is generated under specific conditions such as long ripening periods and mild temperatures. In these conditions, the contribution of Maillard reactions to the generation of the dry cured flavor is unknown. The main purpose of this study was to examine mild curing conditions such as temperature, pH and aw for the generation of volatile compounds responsible for the cured meat aroma in model systems simulating dry fermented sausages. The different conditions were tested in model systems resembling dry fermented sausages at different stages of production. Three conditions of model system, labeled initial (I), 1st drying (1D) and 2nd drying (2D) and containing different concentrations of amino acid and curing additives, as well as different pH and aw values, were incubated at different temperatures. Changes in the profile of the volatile compounds were investigated by solid phase microextraction and gas chromatography mass spectrometry (SPME-GS-MS) as well as the amino acid content. Seventeen volatile compounds were identified and quantified in the model systems. A significant production of branched chain volatile compounds, sulfur, furans, pyrazines and heterocyclic volatile compounds were detected in the model systems. At the drying stages, temperature was the main factor affecting volatile production, followed by amino acid concentration and aw. This research demonstrates that at the mild curing conditions used to produce dry cured meat product volatile compounds are generated via the Maillard reaction from free amino acids. Moreover, in these conditions aw plays an important role promoting formation of flavor compounds.

Project description:Storage is essential in improving the quality of strong-flavor baijiu (SFB). Here, we investigated the release behaviors of metals from containers into SFB and their effects on the evolution of aroma compounds during storage. Twenty-six metals were identified in SFB samples. The concentrations of Na, K, Ca, Mg, Al, and Fe obviously increased after storing in pottery jar, whereas those of Fe and Cu greatly increased after storing in stainless-steel vessel. The volatility of most esters, alcohols, ketone, furan, and aldehyde decreased, whereas that of most acids increased after adding the metal ions into fresh SFB. The fluorescence intensity of SFB decreased with increased aging time in pottery jar, whereas the fluorescence intensity of acids was quenched with adding Fe3+ and Cu2+. All these results suggested that some metals released from containers had binding affinities with acids, thereby reducing SFB organoleptic stimulation by forming metal-aroma compound complexes during storage.

Project description:The Maillard reaction is well known for producing antioxidant compounds alongside colored substances. Low-molecular-weight antioxidant intermediates such as maltol (MAL) or norfuraneol (NF) are well described, but it is still unclear which of these Maillard intermediates are the precursors of antioxidant and colored melanoidins-the so-called late stage Maillard reaction products. This study aimed to provide novel insights into the correlation between browning potential and antioxidant properties of reaction products formed during the heat treatment of prominent Maillard reaction intermediates. It was achieved by the incubation of binary reaction systems composed of methylglyoxal (MGO) or NF in combination with furfural (FF), MAL, and pyrrole-2-carbaldehyde (PA) at pH 5 and 130 °C for up to 120 min. Overall, it could be shown that the formation of colored products in the binary NF reaction systems was more efficient compared to those of MGO. This was reflected in an increased browning intensity of up to 400% and a lower conversion rate of NF compared to MGO. The colorants formed by NF and FF or PA (~0.34 kDa and 10-100 kDa) were also found to exhibit higher molecular weights compared to the analogue products formed in the MGO incubations (<0.34 kDa and 10-100 kDa). The incorporation of NF into these heterogenous products with FF and PA resulted in the preservation of the initial antioxidant properties of NF (p < 0.05), whereas no antioxidant products were formed after the incubation of MGO.

Project description:Off-flavor is one of the most frequent and serious causes for the aroma deterioration in Jiang-flavor Baijiu. However, the key compounds and their formation mechanism responsible for off-flavor are still unclear. This study identified 271 volatile compounds from 1 normal and 5 types of off-flavor fermented grains (putrid, rancidity, mud, musty, and burnt) by headspace solid-phase microextraction combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Using VIP and OAV analysis, 47 key flavor compounds including indole, phenol, isoamyl alcohol, diacetyl, acetic acid, isobutyric acid, and isovaleric acid were found to distinguish normal and off-flavor fermented grains. Furthermore, 40 microbial genera (mainly Monascus, Enterococcus, Dyadobacter, Ottowia, Pseudoxanthomonas, Stenotrophomonas, Pseudomonas, and Xanthomonas) were significantly (p < 0.05, Pearson correlation) related to these 47 compounds. Finally, metabolic pathways for off-flavor compounds formation were constructed. This study provides comprehensive information on the off-flavor compounds and their potential formation mechanism during Jiang-flavor Baijiu fermentation.

Project description:1-Propanol is an important aroma compound in sauce-flavor Baijiu. However, the mechanism by which it affects the aroma of sauce-flavor Baijiu has not been fully investigated. In this study, an instrumental and perceptual analysis was employed to assess the impact of 1-propanol on the flavor and volatile compounds in sauce-flavor Baijiu. The combination of sensory evaluation and electronic tongue analysis revealed that 1-propanol diminished the floral and fruity flavor and increased the bitterness and astringency. According to SHS/GC-MS analysis, 1-propanol mainly inhibited the volatility of ethyl acetate, ethyl butyrate, ethyl valerate, and ethyl hexanoate. Further, the Feller additive model and odor activity value method confirmed the four binary mixtures formed by 1-propanol and four esters had masking effects. Finally, the partition coefficients were calculated to clarify the relationship between volatility and interaction of compounds.

Project description:Light-flavor Baijiu (LFB) fermentation is a representative spontaneous mixed-culture solid-state fermentation process in which sorghum is used as the raw material. Raw materials and microorganisms are crucial to the flavor formation and quality of LFB. However, the microbial and physicochemical dynamics of different sorghum varieties during LFB fermentation, as well as their impact on flavor compounds are still largely unknown. Herein, PacBio single-molecule real-time (SMRT) sequencing and headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) were applied to investigate microbial community succession and volatile flavor formation in glutinous/non-glutinous sorghum-based fermented grains during LFB fermentation. Fermented grains made of glutinous sorghum Liangnuo No. 1 (GLN) had higher bacterial α-diversity and lower fungal α-diversity than those with fermented grains prepared with non-glutinous red sorghum (NRS) (p < 0.05). The dominant microbial species were Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Acetobacter pasteurinus, and Lactobacillus helveticus, the latter two of which were the predominant bacteria observed at the end of fermentation in GLN and NRS, respectively. Moisture content and reducing sugar had a more significant impact on the microorganisms in GLN, while amino acid nitrogen, total free amino acids, and residual starch were the main driving factors driving the microbial community in NRS. The correlation network and discriminant analysis indicated that a relatively high content of 4-vinylguaiacol showed a significant positive association with significant differential microbial species in GLN. These results provided valuable insights for improving the quality of LFB.

Project description:In the present study, camellia seed meal Maillard reaction products (MRPs) were prepared using camellia seed meal protein as a raw material. The effects of MR on protein structure and volatile components of camellia seed meal were investigated by fluorescence, UV absorption, infrared spectroscopy, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Not only the change of amino acid content in MRPs, but also the antioxidant capacity of MRPs and the antioxidant capacity after in vitro digestion were determined. Our result showed that the ratio of essential amino acids in R-MRPs was increased and the antioxidant activity was the highest. For the potential of MRPs as flavoring, our sensory evaluation results showed improved flavor and antioxidant activity of camellia seed meal after MR which can be used as flavoring agents at industrial level.
