[PMID: 38763633 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2024.114330] [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: 01/24/2024] [Revised: 03/29/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/21/2024]
Abstract
Processing technology plays a crucial role in the formation of tea aroma. The dynamic variations in volatile metabolites across different processing stages of fresh scent green tea (FSGT) were meticulously tracked utilizing advanced analytical techniques such as GC-E-Nose, GC-MS, and GC × GC-TOFMS. A total of 244 volatile metabolites were identified by GC-MS and GC × GC-TOFMS, among which 37 volatile compounds were concurrently detected by both methods. Spreading and fixation stages were deemed as pivotal processes for shaping the volatile profiles in FSGT. Notably, linalool, heptanal, 2-pentylfuran, nonanal, β-myrcene, hexanal, 2-heptanone, pentanal, 1-octen-3-ol, and 1-octanol were highlighted as primary contributors to the aroma profiles of FSGT by combining odor activity value assessment. Furthermore, lipid degradation and glycoside hydrolysis were the main pathways for aroma formation of FSGT. The results not only elucidate the intricate variations in volatile metabolites but also offer valuable insights into enhancing the processing techniques for improved aroma quality of green tea.

Food Chem X 2024; 22:101427. [PMID: 38736982 PMCID: PMC11087968 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2024.101427] [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: 02/17/2024] [Revised: 04/19/2024] [Accepted: 04/28/2024] [Indexed: 05/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Flowery-like aroma are positive contributors to green tea. Here, the optimal processing conditions for green tea with flowery-like aroma were designed using spreading time, fixation time and drying temperature as three factors designed by response surface methodology (RSM), and the response value of aroma sensory evaluation score. The volatiles in batches of tea samples were analyzed by GC-MS. The optimal quality was obtained with a flowery-like aroma by RSM under a spreading time of 8.97 h, fixation time of 162.3 s, and drying temperature of 103.32 °C. GC-O and odor activity values further revealed floral-like volatiles, including decanal, linalool oxide, β-lonone, geraniol, (Z)-jasmone, linalool, nonanal, and benzeneacetaldehyde. The recombination of these floral volatiles confirmed the consistency with the floral green tea. Furthermore, the extending spreading duration (8-10 h), reducing fixation duration (160-190 s), and increasing drying temperature (100-115 °C) promote their accumulation in green tea. This study provides new perspectives for the precise enhancement of floral odorants for green tea.

[PMID: 38187940 PMCID: PMC10770431 DOI: 10.1016/j.fochx.2023.101047] [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: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 11/26/2023] [Accepted: 12/03/2023] [Indexed: 01/09/2024] Open
Abstract
To study the effect of storage (for 0, 3, 6, and 12 months) on the flavor of green tea (GT), we monitored the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in GT through gas chromatography (GC) combined with ion mobility spectrometry and headspace solid-phase micro extraction, GC-MS (mass spectrometry). Then, relative odor activity value (ROAV) was applied to analyze the aroma contribution of the VOCs. During storage, the polyphenol and caffeine contents gradually decreased from 22.38 % to 18.51 % and from 4.37 % to 3.74 %, respectively, and the total soluble sugar first increased and then decreased (from 4.89 % to 7.16 % and then 5.02 %). Although the total free amino acid contents showed a fluctuating trend, the content of cysteamine increased gradually. The contents of VOCs with positive contribution to GT aroma, including linalool, geraniol, nonanal, and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, decreased. They also contributed less in the ROAV after storage. The ROAVs of nonanal, linalool, and geraniol decreased from 3.37 to 0.79, from 100 to 38.21, and from 2.98 to 1.8, respectively, after 12 months of storage. Principal component analysis can be used to identify the samples with different storage durations based on these data. Given the increase in amount of cysteamine and decrease in that of linalool oxide, oxidation may be not the only factor responsible for tea quality in storage.

Abstract
Eucommia ulmoides tea is a popular functional health drink in Asian countries, but its unique herbal aroma is difficult for consumers to accept. The effects of four lactic acid bacteria strains (Lactobacillus plantarium, Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Lactobacillus acidophilus and Streptococcus thermophilus) fermentation on the physicochemical property, antioxidant activity in vitro and aroma component of E. ulmoides leaves were studied. Within the four strains, the sample by L. bulgaricus fermentation showed the higher concentrations of chlorogenic acid, geniposidic acid and stronger antioxidant activity in vitro. Moreover, the sample by L. bulgaricus fermentation produced a stronger fruity and floral flavor. These results suggested that L. bulgaricus was the best strain for fermentation E. ulmoides tea. The differences between different strains should be considered when selecting lactic acid bacteria for raw material fermentation of fruits and vegetables.

Abstract
Aroma components in foxtail millet are one of the key factors in origin traceability and quality control, and they are associated with consumer acceptance and the corresponding processing suitability. However, the volatile differences based on the foxtail millet varieties have not been studied further. The present study was undertaken to develop the characteristic volatile fingerprint and analyze the differences in volatile compounds of 20 foxtail millet varieties by electronic nose (E-Nose), headspace-gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (HS-GC-IMS), and headspace solid-phase microextraction/gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME/GC-MS). A total of 43 volatile compounds were tentatively identified in foxtail millet samples, 34 and 18 by GC-IMS and GC-MS, respectively. Aldehydes, alcohols, and ketones were the major volatile compounds, and the hexanal content was the highest. The characteristic volatile fingerprint of foxtail millet was successfully constructed. A total of 39 common volatile compounds were found in all varieties. The content of hexanal, heptanal, 1-pentanol, acetophenone, 2-heptanone, and nonanal were explored to explain the aroma characteristics among the different varieties, and different varieties can be separated based on these components. The results demonstrate that the combination of E-Nose, GC-IMS, and GC-MS can be a fast and accurate method to identify the general aroma peculiarities of different foxtail millet varieties.

Abstract
In order to explore the aromatic differences between Xinjiang cow milk powder and specialty milk powder (donkey, camel, and horse milk powder), Gas Chromatography-Ion Mobility Spectrometry (GC-IMS) analysis was employed to investigate the volatile compounds in these four types of milk powders. A total of 61 volatile substances were detected, with ketones, aldehydes, and alcohols being the primary flavor components in the milk powders. While the aromatic components of the different milk powders showed similarities in terms of types, there were significant differences in their concentrations, exhibiting distinct characteristics for each type. The Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA) showed that there were 15, 14, and 23 volatile compounds that could be used for discrimination of cow milk powder against specialty milk powders, respectively. And it was validated by Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) analysis, and finally, 8, 6, and 19 volatile compounds were identified as valid differential marker substances. To facilitate visual discrimination between the different milk powders, we established GC-IMS fingerprint spectra based on the final discriminant markers. These studies provide theoretical guidance for the application of volatile compounds to discriminate adulteration of milk powder marketed in Xinjiang.

Abstract
With the development of metabolomics analytical techniques, relevant studies have increased in recent decades. The procedures of metabolomics analysis mainly include sample preparation, data acquisition and pre-processing, multivariate statistical analysis, as well as maker compounds' identification. In the present review, we summarized the published articles of tea metabolomics regarding different analytical tools, such as mass spectrometry, nuclear magnetic resonance, ultraviolet-visible spectrometry, and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry. The metabolite variation of fresh tea leaves with different treatments, such as biotic/abiotic stress, horticultural measures, and nutritional supplies was reviewed. Furthermore, the changes of chemical composition of processed tea samples under different processing technologies were also profiled. Since the identification of critical or marker metabolites is a complicated task, we also discussed the procedure of metabolite identification to clarify the importance of omics data analysis. The present review provides a workflow diagram for tea metabolomics research and also the perspectives of related studies in the future.

Abstract
White tea is a mildly fermented tea processed with withering and drying. Milk-flavored white tea has a unique milk flavor compared to the traditional white tea. Little is known about the aromas that make white tea taste milky. Here we conducted the volatile profiling via headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME)-gas chromatography-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC-TOFMS) and chemometrics to explore the key volatiles making milk-flavored white tea taste milky. Sixty-seven volatiles were identified, with 7 volatiles (OAV > 1 and VIP > 1) were characterized as the typical aromas. Green and light fruity scent volatiles, such as methyl salicylate, benzyl alcohol, and phenylethyl alcohol, were richer in TFs than MFs. Strong fruity and cheese aromas, such as dihydro-5-pentyl-2(3H)-furanone, 2-pentyl-furan, (E)-6,10-dimethyl-5,9-undecadien-2-one, and hexanal, were more abundant in MFs than TFs. Dihydro-5-pentyl-2(3H)-furanone, recognized as coconut and creamy aroma, should be the essential volatile for milky flavor. Also, (E)-6,10-dimethyl-5,9-undecadien-2-one and 2-pentyl-furan may contribute to the milk scent formation.

Abstract
To characterize the key odorants of floral aroma green tea (FAGT) and reveal its dynamic evolution during processing, the volatile metabolites in FAGT during the whole processing were analyzed by integrated volatolomics techniques, relative odor activity value (rOAV), aroma recombination, and multivariate statistical analysis. The volatile profiles undergone significant changes during processing, especially in the withering and fixation stages. A total of 184 volatile compounds were identified (∼53.26% by GC-MS). Among them, 7 volatiles with rOAV > 1 were identified as characteristic odorants of FAGT, and most of these compounds reached the highest in withering stage. According to the formation pathways, these key odorants could be divided into four categories: fatty acid-derived volatiles, glycoside-derived volatiles, amino acid-derived volatiles, and carotenoid-derived volatiles. Our study provides a comprehensive strategy to elucidate changes in volatile profiles during processing and lays a theoretical foundation for the targeted processing of high-quality green tea.

Zhao P, Li N, Chen L, Guo Y, Huang Y, Tong L, Wang L, Fan B, Wang F, Liu L. Effects of Oat β-Glucan on the Textural and Sensory Properties of Low-Fat Set Type Pea Protein Yogurt. Molecules 2023; 28:molecules28073067. [PMID: 37049830 PMCID: PMC10096348 DOI: 10.3390/molecules28073067] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/28/2023] [Revised: 03/26/2023] [Accepted: 03/28/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023] Open
Abstract
This study investigated the effect of oat β-glucan as a fat substitute on the structure formation, texture, and sensory properties of pea protein yogurt. The results showed that the incorporation of 0.5% β-glucan significantly accelerated the lactic acid bacteria-induced fermentation, with the time for reaching the target pH of 4.6 shortened from 3.5 h to 3 h (p < 0.05); increased the plastic module (G′) from 693 Pa to 764 Pa when fermenting 3 h (p < 0.05); and enhanced the water-holding capacity from 77.29% to 82.15% (p < 0.05). The identification of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in low-fat pea protein yogurt by GC-IMS revealed a significant decrease in aldehydes and a significant increase in alcohols, ketones and acids in the pea yogurt after fermentation (p < 0.05). Among them, the levels of acetic acid, acetone, 2,3-butanedione, 3-hydroxy-2-butanone, and ethyl acetate all significantly increased with the addition of oat β-glucan (p < 0.05), thereby providing prominent fruity, sweet, and creamy flavors, respectively. Combined with the results of sensory analysis, the quality characteristics of pea protein yogurt with 1% oil by adding 1% oat β-glucan were comparable to the control sample with 3% oil. Therefore, oat β-glucan has a good potential for fat replacement in pea protein yogurt.

Abstract
Aroma components are one of the crucial factors in dynamic processes analysis, quality control, and origin traceability. Various categories of Huaguo Tea possessed different taste due to the generation of aroma. In this study, a comprehensive analysis of volatiles was conducted for five popular Huaguo Tea samples (Lemon Slices, Bitter Gourd Slices, Citri Reticulatae Pericarpium, Red Lycium Barbarum, and Black Lycium Barbarum) via gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) combining with multivariate statistical strategies. Comparison analysis was achieved with the properties of visually and intuitively by drawing of topography plots. A total of one hundred and eighty volatiles were distinguished. Aliphatic isomers were identified simultaneously by fingerprint spectra. Alcohols, aldehydes, esters, and ketones were the most abundant volatiles in Huaguo Tea samples. To characterize the Huaguo Tea precisely and establish an analysis model for their classification, multivariate statistical analysis was applied to distinguish different Huaguo Tea. Satisfied discrimination was obtained by principal component analysis (PCA) and orthogonal partial least squares discrimination analysis (OPLS-DA) based on the HS-GC-IMS results with the robustness parameter (R2Y) of 99.4%, and prediction ability parameter (Q2) of 98.6%, respectively. The results provide a theoretical basis for aroma discrimination, isomer identification, and categories analysis of Huaguo Tea.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chestnut-like aroma is one of the unique qualities of Chinese green tea and has become an important factor influencing consumer decisions. However, the chemical formation mechanism of chestnut-like aroma during green tea processing remains unclear. In this study, the dynamic changes of key components contributing to chestnut-like aroma and their precursors were analyzed in fresh leaves, fixation leaves, first baking tea leaves, and green tea. RESULTS The thermal process had an important effect on volatile components in tea leaves, causing a significant decrease of alcohols and esters and a significant increase of ketones, acids, phenols, and sulfur compounds. Furthermore, 31 volatiles were identified as the key odorants responsible for chestnut-like aroma of green tea, including dimethyl sulfide, methyl isobutenyl ketone, 2-methylbutanal, 2,4-dimethylstyrene, d-limonene, methyl 2-methylvalerate, linalool, decanal, longifolene, phenylethyl alcohol, l-α-terpineol, jasmone, and so on. And the majority of these odorants were only formed in the drying stage. Additionally, isoleucine, theanine, methionine, and glucose were found to be involved in the formation of chestnut-like aroma of green tea. CONCLUSION The drying process played a vital important role in the formation of chestnut-like aroma of green tea. © 2022 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
Compared with spring tea, summer tea has the advantages of economy and quantity. However, research on the aroma characteristics of summer tea is currently limited. In this study, summer fresh tea leaves (castanopsis. sinensis, cv. Fuliangzhong) (FTLs) were processed intoblack tea (BT) and green tea (GT). The changes in the volatile compounds during the tea processing were quantified using gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) and head space-solid phase micro-extraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS), and then analyzed on the basis of relative odor activity value (ROAV). Results showed low amounts of flavor compounds, such as linalool oxides, geraniol, and sulcatone, were found in FTLs, but after processing, high amounts of the same in BT and GT. Summer BT and GT contained characteristic compounds similar to spring tea, including linalool, geraniol, (E,E)-2,4-decdienal, β-ionone, methyl salicylate, geranyl acetone, and decanal. All these compounds have high content and ROAV values, which give the same flavor to summer teas as spring tea. This study confirmed that summer fresh tea leaves were suitable to produce black and green tea with good flavor. Monitoring changes in aroma compounds by GC-IMS coupled with GC-MS, the quality of summer tea is expected to be promoted towards the quality of spring tea by improving processing methods for valuable-tea production.

Abstract
Food authenticity regarding different varieties and geographical origins is increasingly becoming a concern for consumers. In this study, headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-GC-MS) and fast gas chromatography electronic nose (fast GC e-nose) were used to successfully distinguish the varieties and geographical origins of dried gingers from seven major production areas in China. By chemometric analysis, a distinct separation between the two varieties of ginger was achieved based on HS-GC-MS. Furthermore, flavor information extracted by fast GC e-nose realized the discrimination of geographical origins, and some potential flavor components were selected as important factors for origin certification. Moreover, several pattern recognition algorithms were compared in varietal and regional identification, and random forest (RF) led to the highest accuracies for discrimination. Overall, a rapid and precise method combining multivariate chemometrics and algorithms was developed to determine varieties and geographical origins of ginger, and it could also be applied to other agricultural products.

Abstract
Steeping process is an important factor for aroma release of tea, which has rarely been investigated for the aroma changes of raw Pu-erh tea (RAPT). In addition, the comprehensive aroma characteristics identification of RAPT infusion is necessary. In this study, GC-IMS coupled with principal component analysis (PCA) was used to clarify the difference of volatile profiles during the steeping process of RAPT. Furthermore, the volatiles contained in the RAPT infusion were extracted by three pretreatment methods (HS-SPME, SBSE, and SAFE) and identified using GC-O-MS. According to the odor activity value, 28 of 66 compounds were categorized as aroma-active compounds. Aroma recombination and omission experiments showed that "fatty", "green", "fruity", and "floral" are considered to be the main aroma attributes of RAPT infusion with a strong relationship with 1-octen-3-one, 1-octen-3-ol, (E)-2-octenal, β-ionone, linalool, etc. This study will contribute a better understanding of the mechanism of the RAPT steeping process and volatile generation.

Abstract
Green tea is a worldwide appreciated food product with Chinese production estimated to reach over 3m tons in 2027 and with many valuable health effects. The development of analytical methods to discriminate among green tea samples is induced by economic benefits and to avoid deliberate origin mislabeling and adulteration. In this study, we present a paper-based colorimetric sensor array comprised of six ordinary reagents tailored for the discrimination of green tea extracts of different brands according to differences in the composition of flavonoids. The colorimetric array was rationally designed based on indicators that differentially react with a variety of flavonoids via specific functional groups. 4 μL of each reagent was impregnated onto the paper surface followed by the addition of the green tea extract. After 1 minute, digital images were acquired using a smartphone and the color changes were employed to build differential maps with a unique fingerprint for each green tea sample. Moreover, principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical component analysis (HCA) were employed to successfully discriminate among the samples, enabling the origin and adulteration identification of the samples. Therefore, this study provides a simple, effective, low-cost, and portable method for quick discrimination and quality control of green tea samples.

Abstract
Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) is one of the most popular spices in the world, with its unique odor. Due to its health benefits, ginger is also widely used as a dietary supplement and herbal medicine. In this study, the main flavor components of gingers processed by different drying methods including hot air drying, vacuum drying, sun-drying, and vacuum-freeze drying, were identified on the basis of headspace-gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (HS-GC-MS) and fast gas chromatography electronic-nose (fast GC e-nose) techniques. The results showed that the ginger dried by hot air drying exhibited high contents of volatile compounds and retained the richest odor in comparison with those dried by other methods, which indicated that hot air drying is more suitable for the production of dried ginger. Sensory description by fast GC e-nose exhibited that ginger flavor was mainly concentrated in the spicy, sweet, minty, fruity, and herbaceous odor. The relative content of the zingiberene was significantly higher in the hot air drying sample than those by other methods, suggesting that dried ginger by hot air drying can retain more unique spicy and pungent odorants. Furthermore, the results of chemometrics analyses showed that the main variance components among the samples by different drying methods were α-naginatene, (+)-cyclosativene, and sulcatone in HS-GC-MS analysis, and α-terpinen-7-al, dimethyl sulfide, and citronellal in fast GC e-nose analysis. For comparison of fresh and dried gingers, terpinolene, terpinen-4-ol, 2,4-decadienal, (E, Z)-, and linalool were considered the main variance components. This study generated a better understanding of the flavor characteristics of gingers by different drying methods and could provide a guide for drying and processing of ginger.

Abstract
Tea, after water, is the most frequently consumed beverage in the world. The fermentation of tea leaves has a pivotal role in its quality and is usually monitored using the laboratory analytical instruments and olfactory perception of tea tasters. Developing electronic sensing platforms (ESPs), in terms of an electronic nose (e-nose), electronic tongue (e-tongue), and electronic eye (e-eye) equipped with progressive data processing algorithms, not only can accurately accelerate the consumer-based sensory quality assessment of tea, but also can define new standards for this bioactive product, to meet worldwide market demand. Using the complex data sets from electronic signals integrated with multivariate statistics can, thus, contribute to quality prediction and discrimination. The latest achievements and available solutions, to solve future problems and for easy and accurate real-time analysis of the sensory-chemical properties of tea and its products, are reviewed using bio-mimicking ESPs. These advanced sensing technologies, which measure the aroma, taste, and color profiles and input the data into mathematical classification algorithms, can discriminate different teas based on their price, geographical origins, harvest, fermentation, storage times, quality grades, and adulteration ratio. Although voltammetric and fluorescent sensor arrays are emerging for designing e-tongue systems, potentiometric electrodes are more often employed to monitor the taste profiles of tea. The use of a feature-level fusion strategy can significantly improve the efficiency and accuracy of prediction models, accompanied by the pattern recognition associations between the sensory properties and biochemical profiles of tea.

Abstract
Round green tea (RGT) is widely distributed and presents a high yield in China. The quality of RGT can be determined by its aroma; however, the transformation and formation of volatile metabolites during RGT processing remain unclear. In this study, 173 volatile compounds (nine categories) were identified totally from RGT via gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with infrared-assisted headspace-solid phase microextraction. These substances exhibited different changing trends during various procedures, with the most intense transformation occurring during fixation, followed by pan-frying and second drying; moreover, 51 substances were screened, mainly containing fatty acid-derived volatiles (i.e., (E)-2-hexen-1-ol, Hexanal, pentanal, hexanal) and glycoside-derived volatiles (i.e., linalool, geraniol, benzyl alcohol, benzaldehyde), and their evolution during processing was clarified. Furthermore, the effect of the second-drying temperature on volatile compound metabolism was clarified, and 90°C was the best temperature for RGT aroma. This research lays a foundation for in-depth quality control and the aroma formation mechanism of RGT.

Abstract
Xinyang Maojian (XYMJ) green tea is a famous high-grade Chinese green tea, but the key odorants contributing to its aroma have been poorly understood. In this study, solid-phase microextraction and solvent-assisted flavor evaporation were used for sample preparation, and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O) were used for both qualitative and quantitative analysis. A total of 50 volatile compounds of five chemical classes were identified in XYMJ tea infusion. Among them, nine odorants including nonanal, β-ionone, octanal, E-nerolidol, linalool, cis-3-hexenyl hexanoate, geraniol, decanal, and β-cyclocitral were identified as key odorants of XYMJ based on GC-O, odor activity values, and aroma combination experiments. Changes in the content of these aroma-active compounds during the manufacturing process of XYMJ (fresh leaves, fixing, rolling, shaping, and drying) were also determined. Most aroma-active compounds decreased after the fixation process, with the exception of cis-3-hexenyl hexanoate. This is the first study to investigate the key odorants in XYMJ using the sensomics approach. The findings of this study provide novel information on the aroma quality of XYMJ.
