Abstract
Mechanochemistry by milling has recently attracted considerable interest for its ability to drive solvent-free chemical transformations exclusively through mechanical energy and at ambient temperatures. Despite its popularity and expanding applications in different fields of chemistry, its impact on Food Science remains limited. This review aims to demonstrate the specific benefits that mechanochemistry can provide in performing controlled glycation, and in "activating" sugar and amino acid mixtures, thereby allowing for continued generation of colors and aromas even after termination of milling. The generated mechanical energy can be tuned under specific conditions either to form only the corresponding Schiff bases and Amadori compounds or to generate their degradation products, as a function of the frequency of the oscillations in combination with the reactivity of the selected substrates. Similarly, its ability to initiate the Strecker degradation and generate pyrazines and Strecker aldehydes was also demonstrated when proteogenic amino acids were milled with glyoxal.

Abstract
The current animal-based production of protein-rich foods is unsustainable, especially in light of continued population growth. New alternative proteinaceous foods are therefore required. Solid-state fermented plant foods from Africa and Asia include several mold- and Bacillus-fermented foods such as tempeh, sufu, and natto. These fermentations improve the protein digestibility of the plant food materials while also creating unique textures, flavors, and taste sensations. Understanding the nature of these transformations is of crucial interest to inspire the development of new plant-protein foods. In this review, we describe the conversions taking place in the plant food matrix as a result of these solid-state fermentations. We also summarize how these (nonlactic) plant food fermentations can lead to desirable flavor properties, such as kokumi and umami sensations, and improve the protein quality by removing antinutritional factors and producing additional essential amino acids in these foods.

Abstract
Meat analogs are anticipated to alleviate environmental and animal welfare concerns as the demand for meat rises. High moisture extrusion is commonly employed to produce meat analogs, and its flavor could influence consumers' choice. To improve the development and market demand of extruded meat analogs, flavor precursors and natural spices have been used in high moisture extrusion process to directly improve the flavor profile of extruded meat analogs. Although there have been many studies on the flavor of high moisture extruded meat analogs, flavor composition and influencing factors have not been summarized. Thus, this review systematically provides the main pleasant and unpleasant flavor-active substances with 79 compounds, as well as descriptive the influence of flavor-active compounds, chemical reactions (such as lipid oxidation and the Maillard reaction), and fiber structure formation (based on extrusion process, extrusion parameters, and raw materials) on flavor of extruded meat analogs. Flavor evaluation of extruded meat analogs will toward multiple assessment methods to fully and directly characterize the flavor of extruded meat analogs, especially machine learning techniques may help to predict and regulate the flavor characteristics of extruded meat analogs.

Extrusion of process flavorings from methionine and dextrose using modified starch as a carrier. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0269857. [PMID: 36735671 PMCID: PMC9897556 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0269857] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2021] [Accepted: 05/27/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to produce process flavorings from methionine and glucose via Maillard reaction by extrusion method. Modified starch was used as a carrier to reduce the torque and facilitate the production process. Five formulations of process flavorings with different ratios of methionine: dextrose: modified starch: water as MS5 (72:18:5:5), MS15 (64:16:15:5), MS25 (56:14:25:5), MS35 (42:12:35:5), and MS45 (40:10:45:5) were prepared and feded into the extruder. The temperatures of the extruder barrel in zones 1 and 2 were controlled at 100, and 120°C, with a screw speed of 30 rpm. The appearance of the obtained products, torque, pH before and after extrusion, color, volatile compounds, and sensory evaluation were determined. The extrudate from the formulation containing the highest amount of modified starch (MS45) gave the highest L* (lightness) of 88.00, which increased to 93.00 (very light) after grinding into a powder. The process flavorings from all formulations exhibited similar sensory scores in terms of aroma, taste, and water solubility, with a very slight difference in color. However, MS25, MS35 and MS45 indicated the torque at 10 Nm/cm3, while MS5 and MS 15 exhibited higher torque at 18, and 25 Nm/cm3, respectively. Extruded process flavorings from MS25 were analyzed for their flavor profiles by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Twelve volatile compounds including the key volatile compounds for sulfurous and vegetable odor type, dimethyl disulfide, methional, and methanethiol, were found. Four pyrazine compounds presented nutty, musty and caramelly odor; and 3-hydroxybutan-2-one and heptane-2,3-dione, which gave buttery odor type, were also detected. The results demonstrated a successful production of process flavorings using modified starch as carrier to facilitate and reduce the torque during the extrusion process.

Abstract
Ball milling at ambient temperatures can accelerate the formation and accumulation of early-stage Maillard reaction intermediates considered important precursors of aromas and antioxidants. In this study, using chemical and biological assays, we explored the potential of sequential milling and heating to enhance the antioxidant and aroma-generating capacity of Maillard model systems. Milling (30 Hz/30 min) followed by dry heating (90 °C/30 min) of glycine or lysine with glucose significantly increased not only the intensity of their aroma-active compounds as analyzed by headspace-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (HS-GC/MS) but also their free radical scavenging capacity as assessed by 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethylbenzothiazoneline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assays. This was attributed to the increased formation of redox-active endiol moieties and precursors of N,N-dialkyl-pyrazinium radical cation in the lysine system assessed by electrospray ionization-quadrupole time-of-flight/tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-QqTOF/MS/MS) analysis. The test samples also inhibited NO generation and cellular oxidative stress in RAW 264.7 murine macrophage cells, indicating size reduction induced by milling promoted paracellular absorption.
