Zhang P, Liu Y, Li H, Hui M, Pan C. Strategies and Challenges of Microbiota Regulation in Baijiu Brewing. Foods 2024; 13:1954. [PMID: 38928896 PMCID: PMC11202514 DOI: 10.3390/foods13121954] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/17/2024] [Revised: 06/09/2024] [Accepted: 06/12/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
The traditional Chinese Baijiu brewing process utilizes natural inoculation and open fermentation. The microbial composition and abundance in the microecology of Baijiu brewing often exhibit unstable characteristics, which directly results in fluctuations in Baijiu quality. The microbiota plays a crucial role in determining the quality of Baijiu. Analyzing the driving effect of technology and raw materials on microorganisms. Elucidating the source of core microorganisms and interactions between microorganisms, and finally utilizing single or multiple microorganisms to regulate and intensify the Baijiu fermentation process is an important way to achieve high efficiency and stability in the production of Baijiu. This paper provides a systematic review of the composition and sources of microbiota at different brewing stages. It also analyzes the relationship between raw materials, brewing processes, and brewing microbiota, as well as the steps involved in the implementation of brewing microbiota regulation strategies. In addition, this paper considers the feasibility of using Baijiu flavor as a guide for Baijiu brewing regulation by synthesizing the microbiota, and the challenges involved. This paper is a guide for flavor regulation and quality assurance of Baijiu and also suggests new research directions for regulatory strategies for other fermented foods.

Comparative analysis of bacterial community structure and physicochemical quality in high-temperature Daqu of different colors in Qingzhou production area. Heliyon 2024; 10:e31718. [PMID: 38828313 PMCID: PMC11140805 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2024.e31718] [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: 05/12/2024] [Revised: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 05/21/2024] [Indexed: 06/05/2024] Open
Abstract
To compare the effects of differences in Daqu making technology and production regions on the bacterial composition and physicochemical properties of high-temperature Daqu (HTD), this study analyzed the bacterial community structure of three colors of HTD in the Qingzhou production area and measured their physicochemical quality. At the same time, a comparative analysis was conducted on the bacterial composition of Qingzhou and Xiangyang regions. The results revealed that the HTD in the Qingzhou area exhibited a diverse bacterial community dominated by Lentibacillus, Scopulibacillus, and Staphylococcus. The black HTD displayed the lowest bacterial richness (P < 0.05) and a relatively unique microbial structure. Significant variations were observed in the physicochemical qualities of the three colors of HTD. Notably, white HTD demonstrated higher moisture and ash content, saccharification and liquor-producing power. Yellow HTD exhibited higher amino nitrogen and protein content, and black HTD displayed higher water activity, acidity, and starch content. The variation in Bacillus, Limosilactobacillus, and Weissella distributions across different colors of HTD primarily contributed to these findings. From the HTD samples in the Qingzhou area, Bacillus (61.90 %) and lactic acid bacteria (17.46 %) being the predominant cultivable communities. Cluster analysis identified significant differences in bacterial communities among HTD samples from various production areas. It can enhance the understanding of HTD quality in the Qingzhou area and offer insights for optimizing HTD and Maotai-flavor Baijiu quality.

Abstract
Mechanized, automated and intelligent brewing is an important trend of innovation and transition in Jiang-flavor baijiu industry. In this study, physicochemical parameters, microbial community composition and flavor substances during 3rd round heap fermentation between mechanical and traditional workshop were investigated and compared based on traditional culturable methods, high-throughput sequencing technology and gas chromatography analysis. The dominant bacterial and fungal genera were consistent between the two workshops, but mechanized brewing had a significant impact on the composition of fungal communities. Rhodococcus and Monascus were special genera in mechanical workshop. The interaction relationship between physicochemical parameters and dominant microorganisms in mechanized workshop was different from traditional workshop as well. This study provided a scientific basis for further analyzing the mechanism of mechanized brewing of Jiang-flavor baijiu.

Abstract
Flavor and chemical changes with microbial succession during Red-Sour-Soup (RSS) post-fermentation were urgent to be revealed for quality control. RSS post-fermentation could be divided into three stages according to acidity, nutrients exhausting and total colony counts, without coliform bacteria growth nor nitrite peak was observed. Lactobacillus acetotolerans induced over 50 % increase of lactic acid, finally conducing to the lactic acid-dominated sour taste of RSS. The volatile compounds totally increased by 25.70 % in chili sauce and 32.58 % in tomato sauce (p < 0.05). In early-/middle-stage (pH > 3.5), alcohols and short-chain fatty acids increased, and butyric acid with unpleasant odor became the maximum flavor contributor. Nevertheless, in late-stage (pH < 3.5), with the reduction of alcohols and fatty acids, esters, 2-nonanone and terpenoids with pleasant flavors increased by Clavispora lusitaniae, Pichia, Cladosporium delicatulum and Rozellomycota sp.. In conclusion, the post-fermentation, especially L. acetotolerans metabolism and aciduric fungal esterification were essential for RSS characteristic flavor formation.

Abstract
Sauce-flavor baijiu produced in the Beijing and Guizhou regions has regional characteristic flavors, but the differences in flavor compounds and reasons for their formation remain unclear. The sauce-flavor baijiu brewing process involves several rounds of fermentation. In this study, we investigated the temporal distribution of microbial communities and flavor substances during the third round of sauce-flavor baijiu fermentation in the Beijing region, and we then compared and analyzed the differences of flavor substances and microorganisms in the fermented grains of sauce-flavor baijiu in the Beijing and Guizhou regions. It was found that 10 bacterial genera and 10 fungal genera were dominant in the fermented grains. The acidity of the fermented grains had a significant driving effect on the microbial community succession. A total of 81 volatile compounds were identified and quantified in the fermented grains, of which esters and alcohols were relatively abundant. The differences in 30 microbial community compositions and their resulting differences in terms of the fermentation parameters of fermented grains are responsible for the differences in the profiles of flavor compounds between sauce-flavor baijiu produced in the Beijing and Guizhou regions.

[PMID: 38113584 PMCID: PMC10772288 DOI: 10.1016/j.ultsonch.2023.106727] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/04/2023] [Revised: 11/23/2023] [Accepted: 12/12/2023] [Indexed: 12/21/2023]
Abstract
This study first employed ultrasonic-assisted fermentation of seaweed foot material with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum to produce Porphyra yezoensis sauce. The aim was to examine L. plantarum's growth and metabolism of nutritional components at different growth stages under low- (133.99 W/L) and high-ultrasonic power densities (169.17 W/L). After 24-h fermentation, L. plantarum exhibited a 21.32 % increase in the sonicated P. yezoensis sauce at 133.99 W/L and the logarithmic growth phase compared to that at 169.17 W/L. In addition, compared to the non-sonicated sauce, total phenolic and flavonoid contents increased by around 58 % and 27 % in sonicated sauce at 133.99 W/L, reaching 92.38 mg GEA/g DW and 111.08 mg RE/g DW, respectively. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) of the evaluation criteria for different fermentation stages under 133.99 W/L power ultrasonication revealed that the P. yezoensis sauce generated more phenolic compounds and exhibited stronger antioxidant capabilities in the sonicated sample at the logarithmic phase of L. plantarum. Compared to the traditional treated P. yezoensis sauce, the content of free amino acids was significantly increased in sonicated sauce, especially for logarithmic phase. Finally, GC-IMS analysis demonstrated that the ultrasonication at logarithmic phase released more volatile compounds compared to the non-sonicated sauce. This led to a reduction in the fishy odour of the Porphyra yezoensis sauce and an improved release of favourable flavour compounds.

Abstract
Sea buckthorn has a high nutritional value, but its sour taste and foul odor make it unpalatable for consumers. In this study, we analyzed the metabolite changes occurring during the yeast-assisted fermentation of sea buckthorn juice using the HeadSpace Solid-Phase Microextraction Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) and Ultra-High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (UHPLC-MS) techniques. A total of 86 volatile aroma compounds were identified during the fermentation process. The content of total volatiles in sea buckthorn juice increased by 3469.16 μg/L after 18 h of fermentation, with 22 compounds showing elevated levels. Notably, the total content of esters with fruity, floral, and sweet aromas increased by 1957.09 μg/L. We identified 379 non-volatile metabolites and observed significant increases in the relative abundance of key active ingredients during fermentation: glycerophosphorylcholine (increased by 1.54), glutathione (increased by 1.49), L-glutamic acid (increased by 2.46), and vanillin (increased by 0.19). KEGG pathway analysis revealed that amino acid metabolism and lipid metabolism were the primary metabolic pathways involved during fermentation by Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Fermentation has been shown to improve the flavor of sea buckthorn juice and increase the relative content of bioactive compounds. This study provides novel insights into the metabolic dynamics of sea buckthorn juice following yeast fermentation through metabolomics analysis. These findings could serve as a theoretical foundation for further studies on the factors influencing differences in yeast fermentation.

Food Sci Nutr 2023; 11:5174-5187. [PMID: 37701186 PMCID: PMC10494650 DOI: 10.1002/fsn3.3476] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/02/2023] [Revised: 05/12/2023] [Accepted: 05/24/2023] [Indexed: 09/14/2023] Open
Abstract
Baijiu, a type of liquor, is known for its pure fragrance and softness. Its unique style is attributed to the complex microbial flora and flavor precursors found in Daqu. In order to elaborate the nature of light flavor Daqu to guide the baijiu production, four Daqu samples (DQ1, DQ2, DQ3, and DQ4) from Shanxi province were analyzed to determine their microbial structure, physicochemical properties, and volatile flavors using high-throughout put seqencing and headspace solid-phase microextraction/gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method in this study. The findings indicated that there were no noticeable variations in the water content and esterase activity of the four Daqu. However, the DQ2 sample had a higher acidity value and saccharifying enzyme activity, whereas DQ3 had the highest protease activity. The microbial community structure of the four Daqu was similar, with Lactobacillus and Streptophyta as the dominant bacteria, but the abundance of bacteria was different among the four Daqu. Issachenkia was a common dominant fungus genus in all samples. Rhizopus and Lichtemia were higher in DQ1 and DQ2, while Torulaspora, Aspergillus, and Candida were more prevalent in DQ4. A total of 27 volatile components were detected in the four Daqu, including esters, alcohols, ketones, aldehydes, and acids. DQ2 had the most volatile components and ethyl lactate and ethyl acetate were the most significant esters in the four samples. In conclusion, the physicochemical indicators of the four light flavor Daqu had distinct differences. There were significant variations in the abundance of bacteria and fungi, leading to differences in the volatile component content. These research findings can serve as a theoretical foundation for blending different light flavors Daqu and hold great significance in enhancing the quality of baijiu.

Wu Y, Chen H, Sun Y, Huang H, Chen Y, Hong J, Liu X, Wei H, Tian W, Zhao D, Sun J, Huang M, Sun B. Integration of Chemometrics and Sensory Metabolomics to Validate Quality Factors of Aged Baijiu (Nianfen Baijiu) with Emphasis on Long-Chain Fatty Acid Ethyl Esters. Foods 2023; 12:3087. [PMID: 37628086 PMCID: PMC10453570 DOI: 10.3390/foods12163087] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/19/2023] [Revised: 08/14/2023] [Accepted: 08/14/2023] [Indexed: 08/27/2023] Open
Abstract
The storage process of Baijiu is an integral part of its production (the quality undergoes substantial changes during the aging process of Baijiu). As the storage time extends, the flavor compounds in Baijiu tend to undergo coordinated transformation, thereby enhancing the quality of Baijiu. Among them, long-chain fatty acid ethyl esters (LCFAEEs) were widely distributed in Baijiu and have been shown to have potential contributions to the quality of Baijiu. However, the current research on LCFAEEs in Baijiu predominantly focuses on the olfactory sensation aspect, while there is a lack of systematic investigation into their influence on taste and evaluation after drinking Baijiu during the aging process. In light of this, the present study investigates the distribution of LCFAEEs in Baijiu over different years. We have combined modern flavor sensory analysis with multivariate chemometrics to comprehensively and objectively explore the influence of LCFAEEs on Baijiu quality. The results demonstrate a significant positive correlation between the concentration of LCFAEEs and the fruity aroma (p < 0.05, r = 0.755) as well as the aged aroma (p < 0.05, r = 0.833) of Baijiu within a specific range; they can effectively reduce the off-flavors and spicy sensation of Baijiu. Furthermore, additional experiments utilizing a single variable suggest that LCFAEEs were crucial factors influencing the flavor of Baijiu, with Ethyl Palmitate (EP) being the most notable LCFAEE that merits further systematic investigation.

Abstract
Baijiu is a traditional spirit with high reputation in the Chinese community, and whisky, on the other hand, is a renowned spirit in Western culture, with both contributing a major proportion to the consumption and revenue in the global spirit market. Interestingly, starting with similar raw materials, such as grains, diverse production methods lead to different organoleptic profiles. In addition, such enormous attention they attract renders them as a crucial part in food and the related industry. Therefore, great efforts are made in improving product quality and optimizing production processes, such as flavor enhancement, facility development, and deep utilization of byproducts. Given the huge impacts and great involvements of these spirits in the general food industry, research focusing on either spirit is of referential significance for other relevant fields. With the aim of facilitating such collaboration, this review discusses the current research status, in a comparative manner, of both spirits in respect to key production processes-oriented sensory and flavor analysis, deep utilization of byproducts, and spirit-derived functional food investigations. Finally, the internal correlations based on the abovementioned criteria are identified, with research prospects proposed.

Abstract
Aroma is one of the most fascinating and least-known mysteries of Baijiu research. The volatile compounds (VOCs) of potato wine were evaluated by sensory omics techniques in order to comprehend their overall flavor characteristics and investigate the effects of ultrasonic treatment and gamma irradiation therapy on the aroma of the wine. The findings revealed that a total of 14 flavor compounds were identified by GC-MS. Isoamyl alcohol, ethyl octanoate, and 1,1-diethoxyethane were the key aroma components, according to GC-O analysis. A total of 50 volatile substances were identified by GC-IMS. After being subjected to irradiation and ultrasonic treatment, the alcohol level of the potato wine reduced while the esters content increased. By calculating the relative odor activity value, a total of 29 aroma components were classified as key aroma compounds (ROAV > 1). According to the results of the sensory evaluation-fruity, Fen-flavor, and sweet-and the acceptability of the irradiated and ultrasonicated potato wine were improved. Therefore, the use of ultrasonic and irradiation therapy in potato wine, as well as the overall aroma building of potato wine, can be supported theoretically by this study.

Abstract
In this study, the microbial diversity in Tibetan flavor Daqu was analyzed based on single molecule real-time sequencing (SMRT). The volatile flavor compounds in Daqu were detected using the headspace solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS). In addition, the correlation between various microbes and volatile flavor compounds was explored. Our studies indicated that the dominant bacterial genera in Tibetan flavor Daqu were Oceanobacillus, Kroppenstedtia, Virgibacillus, Enterococcus, Pediococcus, Streptomyces, Saccharopolyspora, Leuconostoc, uncultured_bacterium_f_Lachnospiraceae and Lactobacillus. The dominant fungal genera were Wickerhamomyces, Monascus, Aspergillus and Rhizomucor. 101 volatile compounds were detected in the Daqu samples, including alcohols, acids, esters, aldehydes, hydrocarbons, ketones, ethers, aromatics and pyrazines, and 10 key flavor compounds were identified using the relative odor activity value (ROAV). The results of our correlation analysis showed that Enterococcus was mainly associated with the synthesis of aldehydes such as trans-2-octenal, and uncultured_bacterium_f_lachnospiraceae was associated with the synthesis of most aldehydes. This paper has systematically investigated the physicochemical indices, microbial community structure and flavor compounds of Tibetan flavor Daqu, which is helpful in gaining a deeper understanding of the characteristics of Tibetan flavor Daqu.

Abstract
In the production of soy sauce-aroma type baijiu (SSAB), the quality of base liquor significantly affects the finished liquor's quality. Moreover, low-quality liquor may cause health problems. The different quality grades of base liquor were analyzed to investigate the relationship between the quality and the key compounds in SSAB. In this study, samples were evaluated by the sensory and further analyzed by headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) coupled with electronic nose (E-nose). First, by sensory evaluation, the sauce, floral and fruity, fermented aromas and taste indicators (softness, fullness, harmony, purity and persistence) were positively correlated with the quality grade of the base liquor. The E-nose could distinguish the different quality grades of base liquor well. Second, differential compounds were identified via untargeted metabolome based on the HS-SPME-GC-MS. 16 common differential compounds were shared in the base liquor from different fermentation rounds, including 11 esters, 1 alcohol, 2 aldehydes and 2 ketones. It was found that the higher the quality grade of the base liquor, the richer the content of aromatics, alcohols, aldehydes and ketones. The principal component analysis (PCA) biplots of the differential compounds in the different quality grades of base liquor indicated that the superior-grade base liquor has a strong fruity aroma. By correlation analysis of the differential compounds and sensors responses of E-nose, furfuryl ethyl ether, butanoic acid ethyl ester, isopentyl hexanoate, nonanoic acid ethyl ester and 3-methyl-1-butanol had a significant effect on the response intensity of E-nose sensors. In the present study, the key differential compounds between the different quality grades of base liquor were identified, and the sensory differences between the base liquor were digitized.

Abstract
Sauce-aroma Baijiu (SAB) is one of the most famous Baijius in China; SAB has more than 500 aroma compounds in it. However, the key aroma compound in SAB flavor remains unclear. Volatiles play an important role in SAB aroma and are highly correlated to SAB quality. In the present study, 63 volatile compounds were quantified among 66 SAB samples using gas chromatography with flame ionization detector (GC-FID). The authors analyzed odor contributions and volatile compound correlations in two quality groups of SAB samples. Moreover, an odor activity value (OAV) ratio-based random forest classifier was used to explain the volatile compound relationship differentiations between the two quality groups. Our results proved higher quality SABs had richer aromas and indicated a set of fruity-like ethyl valerate, green- and malt-like isobutyraldehyde and malt-like 3-methylbutyraldehyde and sweet-like furfural, had closer co-abundance correlations in higher quality SABs. These results indicated that the aroma and contributions of volatile compounds in SABs should be analyzed not only with compound odor activity values, but also the correlations between different aroma compounds.

Abstract
Legumes are an attractive choice for developing new products since their health benefits. Fermentation can effectively improve the quality of soymilk. This study evaluated the impact of Lactobacillus plantarum fermentation on the physicochemical parameters, vitamins, organic acids, aroma substances, and metabolites of chickpea milk. The lactic acid bacteria (LAB) fermentation improved the color, antioxidant properties, total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, lactic acid content, and vitamin B6 content of raw juice. In total, 77 aroma substances were identified in chickpea milk by headspace solid-phase microextraction with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS); 43 of the 77 aroma substances increased after the LAB fermentation with a significant decrease in beany flavor content (p < 0.05), improving the flavor of the soymilk product. Also, a total of 218 metabolites were determined in chickpea milk using non-targeted metabolomics techniques, including 51 differentially metabolites (28 up-regulated and 23 down-regulated; p < 0.05). These metabolites participated in multiple metabolic pathways during the LAB fermentation, ultimately improving the functional and antioxidant properties of fermented soymilk. Overall, LAB fermentation can improve the flavor, nutritional, and functional value of chickpea milk accelerating its consumer acceptance and development as an animal milk alternative.

Screening of a Novel Lactiplantibacillus plantarum MMB-05 and Lacticaseibacillus casei Fermented Sandwich Seaweed Scraps: Chemical Composition, In Vitro Antioxidant, and Volatile Compounds Analysis by GC-IMS. Foods 2022; 11:foods11182875. [PMID: 36141001 PMCID: PMC9498330 DOI: 10.3390/foods11182875] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/12/2022] [Revised: 09/10/2022] [Accepted: 09/13/2022] [Indexed: 12/01/2022] Open
Abstract
Lactic acid fermentation is a promising method for developing sandwich seaweed scraps. The objectives of this study were to investigate the effect of fermentation with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum MMB-05, Lactiplantibacillus casei FJAT-7928, mixed bacteria (1:1, v/v) and control on the physicochemical indexes, in vitro antioxidant activity, and volatile compounds of Porphyra yezoensis sauce. Sensory evaluation was also performed. The results indicated that all lactic acid bacteria strains grew well in P. yezoensis sauce after 72 h of fermentation, with the viable cell counts of L. plantarum MMB-05 exceeding 10.0 log CFU/mL, the total phenolic content increasing by 16.54%, and the lactic acid content increasing from 0 to 44.38 ± 0.11 mg/mL. Moreover, the metabolism of these strains significantly increased the content of umami, sweet and sour free amino acids in P. yezoensis sauce. The total antioxidant capacity of L. plantarum MMB-05, L. casei FJAT-7928, mix and control groups increased by 594.59%, 386.49%, 410.27%, and 287.62%, respectively. Gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) analysis suggested that aldehydes and ketones accounted for the largest proportion, and the relative contents of acids and alcohols in P. yezoensis sauce increased significantly after lactic acid bacteria fermentation. In addition, the analysis of dynamic principal component analysis (PCA) and fingerprinting showed that the volatile components of the four treatment methods could be significantly distinguished. Overall, the L. plantarum MMB-05 could be recommended as an appropriate starter for fermentation of sandwich seaweed scraps, which provides a fundamental knowledge for the utilization of sandwiched seaweed scraps.
