Zhao C, Penttinen P, Zhang L, Dong L, Zhang F, Zhang S, Li Z, Zhang X. A combination of omics-based analyses to elucidate the effect of NaCl concentrations on the metabolites and microbial dynamics during the ripening fermentation of Pixian-Douban. Food Chem 2024; 448:139052. [PMID: 38531296 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139052] [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: 10/25/2023] [Revised: 03/01/2024] [Accepted: 03/14/2024] [Indexed: 03/28/2024]
Abstract
The study investigated the effect of different sodium chloride (NaCl) concentrations (10%, 15%, and 20%) on the ripening fermentation of Pixian-Douban, a traditional fermented condiment. The results showed that NaCl affected the dynamics of physicochemical parameters, volatile components, fatty acids, amino metabolites, organic acids, and microbial composition, and their dynamic modes were different. After 253 days fermentation, the 10% NaCl Pixian-Douban had significantly (p < 0.05) higher levels of total organic acids (20,308.25 mg/kg), amino metabolites (28,144.96 mg/kg), and volatiles (3.36 mg/kg) compared to 15% and 20% NaCl Pixian-Douban. Notably, the possible health risk associated with high concentration of biogenic amines in 10% NaCl Pixian-Douban is of concern. Moreover, correlation analyses indicated that the effect of NaCl on the quality of Pixian-Douban may be mainly related to bacteria. This study deepens the knowledge about the role of NaCl in ripening fermentation of Pixian-Douban and contributes to develop low-NaCl Pixian-Douban product.

J Chromatogr B Analyt Technol Biomed Life Sci 2024; 1241:124168. [PMID: 38815355 DOI: 10.1016/j.jchromb.2024.124168] [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: 01/27/2024] [Revised: 05/10/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/01/2024]
Abstract
This study delves into the dynamic interplay of volatile compounds, free amino acids, and metabolites, meticulously exploring their transformations during oat fermentation. Analysis via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) unveiled significant alterations: 72 volatile compounds in unfermented oats (NFO) and 60 in fermented oats (FO), reflecting the profound impact of Saccharomyces cerevisiae TU11 and Lactobacillus plantarum Heal19 on oat constituents. A marked increase in Heptane (5.7-fold) and specific alcohol compounds, like 2-methyl-1-propanol, 3-methyl-1-butanol, and Phenylethyl alcohol in FO samples, while reductions in Hexanal, Hexanoic acid, and Acetic acid were observed. Notably, 4 phenolic compounds emerged post-fermentation, revealing diverse microbial actions in flavor modulation. Orthogonal-partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) indicated a clear separation between NFO and FO, demonstrating distinct volatile compound profiles. Further analysis revealed a noteworthy decrease in all free amino acids except for a significant increase in serine during fermentation. Differential metabolite screening identified 354 metabolites with 219 upregulated and 135 down-regulated, uncovering critical markers like isophenoxazine and imidazole lactic acid. Correlation analyses unveiled intricate relationships between volatile compounds and diverse metabolites, illuminating underlying biochemical mechanisms shaping oat flavor profiles during fermentation.

Abstract
To achieve salt reduction while ensuring flavor quality of Chinese horse bean-chili-paste (CHCP), we comprehensively explored the effect of indigenous strains Tetragenococcus halophilus and Candida versatilis on the aroma profiles of low-salt CHCP by metabolomics and sensomics analysis. A total of 129 volatiles and 34 aroma compounds were identified by GC × GC-MS and GC-O-MS, among which 29 and 20 volatiles were identified as significant difference compounds and aroma-active compounds, respectively. Inoculation with the two indigenous strains could effectively relieve the undesired acidic and irritative flavor brought by acetic acid and some aldehydes in salt-reduction samples. Meanwhile, inoculated fermentation provided more complex and richer volatiles in low-salt batches, especially for the accumulation of 3-methylbutanol, 1-octen-3-ol, benzeneacetaldehyde, phenylethyl alcohol, and 4-ethyl-phenol etc., which were confirmed as essential aroma compounds of CHCP by recombination and omission tests. The research elucidated the feasibility of bioturbation strategy to achieve salt-reducing fermentation of fermented foods.

Abstract
Broad bean paste is a popular condiment in Asian countries. Leaves of Vitex negundo Linn. were used extensively in China during the koji-making of broad bean paste. Spreading V. negundo leaves on raw broad beans during fermentation was able to facilitate the rapid growth of fungi to form mature koji. We isolated two strains of fungi from mature koji, and four strains of bacteria from the rotten broad beans resulting from a failed attempt. According to microbial activity assays, two polymethoxylated flavones, 5-hydroxy-3,6,7,8,3',4'-hexamethoxy flavone (HJ-1) and 5,4'-dihydroxy-3,6,7,8,3'-pentamethoxy flavone (HJ-2) were isolated from V. negundo leaves, and the fungal growth promotion and inhibition of bacterial growth of these two compounds were found to improve the production of broad bean koji. This study reveals the compounds present in V. negundo leaves with bioactivity against important microbes in koji manufacture, and provides a theoretical basis for the application of V. negundo in broad bean paste production.

Abstract
Chili bean paste is a traditional flavor sauce, and its flavor compounds are closely related to its microflora. This study focused on investigating the content of bioactive compounds, flavor compounds, and microbial communities during the post-ripening fermentation of chili bean paste, aiming to provide a reference for improving the flavor of chili bean paste by regulating microorganisms. Compared to no post-ripening fermentation, the content of organic acids increased significantly (p < 0.05), especially that of citric acid (1.51 times). Glutamic acid (Glu) was the most abundant of the 17 free amino acids at 4.0 mg/g. The aroma profiles of the samples were significantly influenced by fifteen of the analyzed volatile compounds, especially methyl salicylate, methyl caproate, and 2-octanol (ROAV > 1). Latilactobacillus (27.45%) and Pseudomonas (9.01%) were the dominant bacterial genera, and Starmerella (32.95%) and Pichia (17.01%) were the dominant fungal genera. Weissella, Lacticaseibacillus, Pichia, and Kazachstania had positive effects on volatile flavoring compounds, which enriched the texture and flavor of the chili bean paste. Therefore, the microbial-community activity during the post-ripening fermentation is the key to enhance the flavor quality of the product.

Abstract
In this study, in silico analysis and peptidomics were performed to examine the generation mechanism of the umami taste of fermented broad bean paste (FBBP). Based on the information from peptidomics, a total of 470 free peptides were identified from FBBP, most of which were increased after fermentation. Additionally, the increase of the content of umami peptides, organic acids, and amino acids during fermentation contributed to the perception of umami taste in FBBP. Molecule docking results inferred that these umami molecules were easy to connect with Ser, Glu, His, and Gln in the T1R3 subunit through hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interaction force. The binding sites His145, Gln389, and Glu301 particularly contributed to the formation of the ligand-receptor complexes. The aromatic interaction, hydrogen bond, hydrophilicity, and solvent-accessible surface (SAS) played key roles in the receptor-peptide interaction. Sensory evaluation and electronic tongue results showed that EDEDE, DLSESV, SNGDDE, DETL, CDLSD, and TDEE screened from FBBP had umami characteristics and umami-enhancing effects (umami threshold values ranging from 0.131 to 0.394 mmol/L). This work provides new insight into the rapid and efficient screening of novel umami peptides and a deeper understanding of the taste mechanisms of umami molecules from FBBP.

Abstract
Based on the widespread application and under-research of mechanized preparation Cantonese soy sauce koji (MP), absolute quantitative approaches were utilized to systematically analyze the flavor formation mechanism in MP. The results indicated that the enzyme activities increased greatly during MP fermentation, and 4 organic acids, 15 amino acids, and 2 volatiles were identified as significantly different flavor actives. The flavor parameters of MP4 were basically identical to those of MP5. Furthermore, microorganisms were dominated by Staphylococcus, Weissella, and Aspergillus in MP, and their biomass demonstrated an increasing trend. A precise enumeration of microorganisms exposed the inaccuracy of relative quantitative data. Concurrently, Staphylococcus and Aspergillus were positively correlated with numerous enzymes and flavor compounds, and targeted strains for enhancing MP quality. The flavor formation network comprises pathways including carbohydrate metabolism, lipid metabolism and oxidation, and protein degradation and amino acid metabolism. In summary, the fermentation period of MP can be substantially shortened without compromising the product quality. These findings lay the groundwork for refining parameters in modern production processes.

Abstract
Pixian Douban (PXDB) is a popular Chinese condiment for its distinctive flavor. Broad bean fermentation (Meju) is the most important process in the formation of flavor substances. Key flavors were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively, and metagenomic technology was applied to study the microbial diversity during broad bean fermentation. In addition, the main metabolic pathways of key flavors were explored. Results indicated that Staphylococcus_gallinarum was the main microorganism in the microbial community, accounting for 39.13%, followed by Lactobacillus_agilis, accounting for 13.76%. Aspergillus_flavus was the fungus with the highest species abundance, accounting for 3.02%. The KEGG Pathway enrichment analysis showed that carbohydrate metabolism and amino acid metabolism were the main metabolic pathways. Glycoside hydrolase and glycosyltransferase genes were the most abundant, accounting for more than 70% of the total number of active enzyme genes. A total of 113 enzymes related to key flavors and 39 microorganisms corresponding to enzymes were annotated. And Staphylococcus_gallinarum, Lactobacillus_agilis, Weissella_confusa, Pediococcus_acidilactici, Staphylococcus_kloosii, Aspergillus_oryzae, and Aspergillus_flavus played a key role in the metabolic pathway. This study reveals the formation mechanism of key flavors in fermented broad bean, it is important for guiding the industrial production of PXDB and improving product quality.

Abstract
Gray sufu is a traditional fermented bean product with strong flavor in China, but traditional fermentation methods often lead to its off-flavor. This study was performed to investigate the flavor quality characteristics of gray sufu fermented using L. mesenteroides F24. Results showed 220 volatile compounds in gray sufu, among which alcohols and esters were the main volatiles. Inoculation with L. mesenteroides F24 considerably affected the contents of flavor substances in gray sufu and substantially increased the main flavor compounds. In addition, 29 kinds of key volatile compounds were identified by analyzing the ROAVs. Four unique key flavor substances were found in gray sufu inoculated with L. mesenteroides F24. This study is the first report on the feasibility of L. mesenteroides F24 as a promising starter culture to improve the flavor quality of gray sufu. The results provide a theoretical basis for improving the processing and quality control of gray sufu.

Abstract
Introduction Adding a fermentation medium is an effective way to improve the quality of cigar tobacco leaves. Methods A novel microbial fermentation medium produced by an edible medicinal fungus, Tremella aurantialba SCT-F3 (CGMCC No.23831) was used to improve the quality of cigar filler leaves (CFLs). Changes in sensory quality, chemical components, volatile flavor compounds (VFCs), and the structure and function of microbes were investigated during the fermentation process. Results The sensory quality of CFLs supplemented with the T. aurantialba SCT-F3 fermentation medium significantly improved. Adding the fermentation medium increased the total alkaloid, reducing sugar, total sugar, and 12 VFCs significantly. A total of 31 microbial genera were significantly enriched, which increased the microbial community's richness and diversity. Microbial functions increased, including nucleotide biosynthesis, amino acid biosynthesis, fatty acid and lipid biosynthesis, nicotine degradation, and nicotinate degradation. During fermentation, the total alkaloid, reducing sugar, and total sugar content decreased. The richness and diversity of the microbial community decreased, whereas bacterial enzyme activity increased. At the end of fermentation, the sensory quality was excellent. The microbial structure gradually stabilized, and functional genes were low. The contents of the four Maillard reaction products and three nicotine degradation products increased significantly. 2-Ethyl-6-methylpyrazine, methylpyrazine, D,L-anatabine, β-nicotyrine, nicotinic degradation products, and total nitrogen were significantly and positively correlated with sensory quality. Methylpyrazine, D,L-anatabine, and β-nicotyrine were negatively correlated with Luteimonas, Mitochondria, Paracoccus, Stemphylium, and Stenotrophomonas. Conclusion This research provides not only a new microbial fermentation medium that utilizes edible and medicinal fungi to improve the quality of fermented CFLs, but also new ideas for the development and application of other edible medicinal fungi to improve the quality of cigar tobacco leaves.

Abstract
Mouding sufu, a traditional fermented soybean product in China, has been recognized by the public in the southwestern regions of China. To reveal the microbial community succession and their relationship with the flavor formation during the natural fermentation of Mouding sufu, microbial community, non-volatile flavor compounds and volatile flavor compounds were analyzed by high-throughput sequencing, high-performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography ion migration spectroscopy, respectively. The results showed that Lactobacillus and Klebsiella were the most abundant bacterial genus, whereas the main fungal genera were unclassified-f-Dipodascaeae and Issatchenkia. In addition, Glutamic acid, Aspartic acid, Alanine, Valine, Lysine, Histidine, lactic acid, succinic acid, and acetic acid were the main non-volatile flavor substances. Furthermore, the taste activity values of glutamic acid, aspartic acid and lactic acid reached 132, 68.9, 18.18 at H60, respectively, meaning that umami and sour were the key taste compounds. Simultaneously, ethyl 3-methylbutanoate-M, ethyl propanoate, methyl 2-methylbutanoate, ethyl 2-methylbutanoate, ethyl 3-methylbutanoate-D, ethyl isobutyrate, linalool-M, linalool-D, cis-4-heptenal, 2-methylpropanal were the characteristic volatile flavor of Mouding sufu. Finally, correlation analysis showed that g__Erwinia and g__Acremonium correlated with most of the key aroma compounds. 20 bacteria and 21 fungi were identified as core functional microbe for Mouding sufu production.

Abstract
This article purposed to discuss the connection between microbiota and characteristic flavor of different fish sauces (Natural fermentation (WQ), koji outdoor fermentation (YQ), heat preservation with enzyme (BWE), and heat preservation with koji (BWQ)) at the early (3 months) and late stage (7 months). A total of 117 flavor compounds were determined according to SPME-GC-MS analysis. O2PLS-DA and VIP values were used to reveal 15 and 28 flavor markers of different fish sauces at 3 and 7 M of fermentation. Further, the possible flavor formation pathways were analyzed using metagenomic sequencing, and the key microbes associated with flavor formation were identified at the genetic level. The top 10 genera related to flavor generation, such as Lactobacillus, Staphylococcus, Enterobacter, etc., appeared to play a prominent part in the flavor formation of fish sauce. The difference was that only BWQ and BWE groups could produce ethyl-alcohol through amino acid metabolism, while YQ, BWE and BWQ groups could generate phenylacetaldehyde through the transformation of Phe by α-ketoacid decarboxylase and aromatic amino acid transferase. Our research contributes to clarifying the various metabolic roles of microorganisms in the flavor generation of fish sauce.

Abstract
With the advancement of industrialization, tank fermentation technology is promising for Pixian broad bean paste. This study identified and analyzed the general physicochemical factors and volatile metabolites of fermented broad beans in a thermostatic fermenter. Headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME)-two-dimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC × GC-MS) was applied to detect the volatile compounds in fermented broad beans, while metabolomics was used to explore their physicochemical characteristics and analyze the possible metabolic mechanism. A total of 184 different metabolites were detected, including 36 alcohols, 29 aldehydes, 26 esters, 21 ketones, 14 acids, 14 aromatic compounds, ten heterocycles, nine phenols, nine organonitrogen compounds, seven hydrocarbons, two ethers, and seven other types, which were annotated to various branch metabolic pathways of carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism. This study provides references for subsequent functional microorganism mining to improve the quality of the tank-fermented broad beans and upgrade the Pixian broad bean paste industry.

Abstract
Yeast extracts, of which amino acids are the main component, can be directly applied to improve the flavor of final soy sauce. In this study, the potential of commercial yeast extracts was explored from amino acid approach to enhance the flavor quality of soy sauce by shaping the core fermentation microbiota. Alkaline and neutral amino acids favored the competitive benefits of flavor-producing bacteria, while acidic amino acids promoted the stress resistance of the fermentation microbiota, especially the abundance of Lactobacillus, which increased to 18.03-23.78% and became the predominant microbiota. The mass ratio of neutral-nonpolar: neutral-polar: acidic: alkaline amino acids was 40: 18: 27: 15, which provided the optimal improvement of soy sauce aroma. The formulation and activated the metabolic pathways of 3-methyl-1-butyraldehyde, 3-methyl-1-butanol and 2-methyl-1-propanol through Leu and Ile, resulting in a 52.6% increase in malt-like aroma. This study provides a new idea for the regulation of soy sauce fermentation.

Abstract
Sufu, a Chinese traditional fermented soybean product, has a characteristic foul smell but a pleasant taste. We determined the core functional microbiota and their metabolic mechanisms during sufu fermentation by examining relationships among bacteria, characteristic flavor compounds, and physicochemical factors. Flavor compounds in sufu were detected through headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, and the microbial community structure was determined through high-throughput 16S rRNA sequencing. The results showed that the fermentation process of sufu could be divided into early and late stages. The early stage was critical for flavor development. Seven microbiota were screened based on their abundance, microbial relevance, and flavor production capacity. Five microbes were screened in the early stage: Pseudomonas, Tetragenococcus, Lysinibacillus, Pantoea, and Burkholderia–Caballeronia–Paraburkholderia. Three microbes were screened in the late stage: Exiguobacterium, Bacillus, and Pseudomonas. Their metabolic profiles were predicted. The results provided a reference for the selection of enriched bacterial genera in the fermentation process and controlling applicable process conditions to improve the flavor of sufu.

Abstract
Despite the booming international trade in cigar tobacco leaves (CTLs), the main characteristics of tobacco leaves from different producing areas are rarely reported. This study aimed to characterize the microbial community, volatile flavor compounds (VFCs), and flavor of CTLs from four famous cigar-producing areas, including Dominica, Brazil, Indonesia, and China. High-throughput sequencing results showed that the dominant genera in CTLs were Staphylococcus, Pseudomonas, Aspergillus, Sampaiozyma, and Alternaria. Sensory analysis revealed that Indonesian and Chinese CTLs were characterized by leathery, peppery, and baked aroma. Brazilian CTLs were dominated by caramel and herb aroma. Dominican CTLs had aromas of milk, fruity, sour, cream, flower, nutty, and honey. Supplemented with the determination of volatile flavor compounds (VFCs), the flavor of CTLs could be scientifically quantified. Most of these VFCs were aldehydes and ketones, and 20 VFCs showed significant differences in CTLs from different regions. The microbial community, VFCs, and flavor of CTLs vary widely due to geographic differences. Network analysis revealed the microbial community was closely related to most VFCs, but the relationships between the fungal community and VFCs were less than the bacterial community, and most of them were negative. Furthermore, it also found that the bacterial community had a greater contribution to the flavor of CTLs than the fungal community. This study obtained essential information on CTLs, which laid a foundation for deeply excavating the relationship between microbes and VFCs and flavor, and establishing a tobacco information database.

Abstract
Broad bean fermentation is of vital importance in PixianDouban (PXDB) production, as well as a key process for microorganisms to degrade protein, which lays the foundation for the formation of PXDB flavor. In this study, two fungi and bacteria were screened, and their morphology, molecular biology, growth, and enzyme production characteristics were analyzed, and then they were applied to the broad bean fermentation simulation system. The protein, peptide, amino acid, amino nitrogen, and sodium dodecyl sulfate‐polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS‐PAGE) in the system were evaluated. The results showed that the four microorganisms were Aspergillus oryzae, Aspergillus jensenii, Staphylococcus gallinarum, and Enterobacter hormaeche. Aspergillus oryzae had the highest protease activity at pH 7.0, while the other three strains had better enzyme activity stability under neutral acidic conditions. And the total protein (F1 and F2 were 18.32 g/100 g, 19.15 g/100 g, respectively), peptides (11.79 ± 0.04 mg/g and 12.06 ± 0.04 mg/g), and amino acids (55.12 ± 2.78 mg/g and 54.11 ± 1.97 mg/g) of the fungus experimental groups (F) were higher than the bacterial experimental groups (B). In addition, the enzyme system produced by fungi exhibited a stronger ability for albumin (20 kDa) and glutenin (<30 kDa) deterioration in neutral conditions, while the bacterial enzyme system was more efficient in degrading albumin (<30 kDa) and glutenin (20–30 kDa) in acidic conditions, as indicated by SDS‐PAGE. These findings showed that both bacteria and fungi played an important role in the degradation of protein in different fermentation stages of broad bean fermentation.

Abstract
A closed system of gradient steady-state temperature field (GSTF) was constructed to ferment Pixian broad bean paste (PBP). The contents of physicochemical factors and organic acids in the fermentation under GSTF (FG) were closer to those in the traditional fermentation (TF). The taste intensities of 8 free amino acids in the FG were higher than those in the constant temperature fermentation (CTF), but 14 in the TF showed the highest among the processes of FG, CTF and TF. The FG product had the most volatiles with 87, and its flavor properties were more stable. The FG produced great effects on the microbe evolutions especially improved the fungal diversity. Bacillus were identified as the core microbes in the FG while the roles of Staphylococcus, Lactobacillus and Pantoea were strengthened. The results indicated that the fermentation characteristics in the FG had been further improved compared with the CTF.

Abstract
Fatty acids have great effects on the maintenance of the cell membrane structure, cell viability, and cell metabolisms. In this study, we sought to elucidate the effects of exogenous fatty acids on the salt tolerance of food yeast Zygosaccharomyces rouxii. Results showed that Z. rouxii can grow by using exogenous fatty acids (C12:0, C14:0, C16:0, C16:1, C18:0, C18:1, and C18:2) as the sole carbon source. Four fatty acids (C12:0, C16:0, C16:1, and C18:1) can improve the salt tolerance of cells, enhance the formation of the cell biofilm, regulate the chemical compositions, restore growth in the presence of cerulenin, regulate the contents of membrane fatty acids, and control the expression of key genes in the fatty acid metabolism. Our results reveal that Z. rouxii can synthesize membrane fatty acids from exogenous fatty acids and the supplementation of these fatty acids can override the need for de novo fatty acid biosynthesis.
