Mechanism of low-voltage electrostatic field on flavor retention in refrigerated sturgeon caviar: Insights from phospholipids.

ABSTRACT: This study investigated the effect of low-voltage electrostatic field on the flavor quality changes and generation pathways of refrigerated sturgeon caviar. Research has found that after storage for 3-6 weeks, the physicochemical properties of caviar in the LVEF treatment group are better than those in the control group. The results of two-dimensional gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry showed that the contents of hexanal, nonanal, (E,Z)-2,6-nonadienal, (E)-2-octenal and 1-octene-3-one related to the characteristic flavor of caviar (sweet, fruity and green) increased significantly. The lipidomics results indicated that the effects of LVEF on caviar mainly involve glycerophospholipid metabolism, linoleic acid metabolism, and α-Linolenic acid metabolism. Methanophosphatidylcholine (15:0/18:1), phosphatidylcholine (18:0/20:5), and phosphatidylcholine (18,1e/22:6) were significantly correlated with odor formation. Therefore, low-voltage electrostatic field treatment preserved the quality and enhanced the flavor of sturgeon caviar. This study provided a new theoretical basis for the preservation of sturgeon caviar.
