Abstract
Stable isotope dilution analysis (SIDA) is a quantitative method widely used in the determination of food flavour components because of its high efficiency and precision. However, many stable isotope reagents cannot be purchased through commercial channels. In this paper, the basic principle of stable isotope dilution analysis is introduced and its historical progress in food flavour analysis are examined. Then, the preparation methods of stable isotope analysis of food flavour compounds in recent years were compiled. In the literature reviewed, from 2012 to 2022, there were 185 stable isotopes of food flavour compounds used for food flavour analysis, of which 126 compounds can be purchased commercially and 59 compounds must be prepared in the laboratory. This review aims to present the methods used in the synthesis of stable isotopes to facilitate the development of food flavour analysis using stable isotope technology.

Thong A, Tan VWK, Chan G, Choy MJY, Forde CG. Comparison of differences in sensory, volatile odour-activity and volatile profile of commercial plant-based meats. Food Res Int 2024; 177:113848. [PMID: 38225123 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodres.2023.113848] [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: 05/26/2023] [Revised: 11/02/2023] [Accepted: 11/17/2023] [Indexed: 01/17/2024]
Abstract
Descriptive sensory analysis was paired with temporal check-all-that-apply gas-chromatography olfactometry (TCATA GC-O) to compare differences in perceived flavour and volatile odour activity across a series of commercial plant-based meat analogues (PBMAs) versus conventional beef products. Multiple factor analysis separated PBMAs in two clusters along the first principal axis. The first cluster, rated higher in meaty flavour and odour, also showed higher citation proportions of sulfurous odourants. In contrast, the second cluster, higher in off odour and flavour, had higher citation proportions for fatty / legume odourants. Key odourants correlated with meaty flavour and odour were putatively identified as 2-methyl-3-furanthiol, dimethyl trisulfide, and furfuryl mercaptan while compounds correlated to off flavour and odour were putatively identified as (E,E)-3,5-octadien-2-one, 2-undecanol, and (E,E)-2,4-decadienal. No correspondence was found between PBMA odour-activity and source protein, suggesting that volatile flavour production in PBMAs is derived primarily from exogeneous flavouring materials or precursors rather than the base protein material. Contributions of lipid-protein interactions to overall flavour differences is further suggested by the putative discovery of 5,6-dihydro-2,4,6-trimethyl-4H-1,3,5-dithiazine odour activity in several meat samples profiled.

New Implications of Metabolites and Free Fatty Acids in Quality Control of Crossbred Wagyu Beef during Wet Aging Cold Storage. Metabolites 2024; 14:95. [PMID: 38392987 PMCID: PMC10890485 DOI: 10.3390/metabo14020095] [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: 12/15/2023] [Revised: 12/30/2023] [Accepted: 01/11/2024] [Indexed: 02/25/2024] Open
Abstract
Efficient cold-chain delivery is essential for maintaining a sustainable global food supply. This study used metabolomic analysis to examine meat quality changes during the "wet aging" of crossbred Wagyu beef during cold storage. The longissimus thoracic (Loin) and adductor muscles (Round) of hybrid Wagyu beef, a cross between the Japanese Black and Holstein-Friesian breeds, were packaged in vacuum film and refrigerated for up to 40 days. Sensory evaluation indicated an increase in the umami and kokumi taste owing to wet aging. Comprehensive analysis using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry identified metabolite changes during wet aging. In the Loin, 94 metabolites increased, and 24 decreased; in the Round, 91 increased and 18 decreased. Metabolites contributing to the umami taste of the meat showed different profiles during wet aging. Glutamic acid increased in a cold storage-dependent manner, whereas creatinine and inosinic acid degraded rapidly even during cold storage. In terms of lipids, wet aging led to an increase in free fatty acids. In particular, linoleic acid, a polyunsaturated fatty acid, increased significantly among the free fatty acids. These results provide new insight into the effects of wet aging on Wagyu-type beef, emphasizing the role of free amino acids, organic acids, and free fatty acids generated during cold storage.

Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the effects of various cooking procedures on the sensory and physicochemical properties of Japanese jidori chicken (Choshu-Kurokashiwa) and broiler thigh meat. Thigh meats were cooked using three different procedures: grilling, boiling, and deep-frying. Subsequently, we performed sensory evaluation by a trained panel and instrumental analysis on both raw and cooked meat to determine changes in pH, shear force value, cooking loss, nucleotide metabolite contents, and proximate, free amino acid, and fatty acid composition. From the sensory evaluation, "springiness" and "chewiness" were found to be characteristics of Choshu-Kurokashiwa thigh meat among all cooking procedures. In terms of "juiciness" and "sulfur flavor," chicken breed and cooking procedure interacted, and these were considerably higher in Choshu-Kurokashiwa meat than in broiler meat only when boiling. In the instrumental analysis, Choshu-Kurokashiwa meat showed a considerably higher shear force value and lower free amino acid content than broiler meat, regardless of the cooking procedure used. Again, in terms of cooking loss, chicken breed and cooking procedure interacted, and this was considerably lower in Choshu-Kurokashiwa meat than in broiler meat only when boiling. These results showed that cooking procedure should be considered when describing the sensory characteristics of jidori thigh meat.

Abstract
Food including milk and meat is often viewed as the mixture of different components such as fat, protein, carbohydrates, moisture and ash, which are estimated using well-established protocols and techniques. However, with the advent of metabolomics, low-molecular weight substances, also known as metabolites, have been recognized as one of the major factors influencing the production, quality and processing. Therefore, different separation and detection techniques have been developed for the rapid, robust and reproducible separation and identification of compounds for efficient control in milk and meat production and supply chain. Mass-spectrometry based techniques such as GC-MS and LC-MS and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy techniques have been proven successful in the detailed food component analysis owing to their associated benefits. Different metabolites extraction protocols, derivatization, spectra generated, data processing followed by data interpretation are the major sequential steps for these analytical techniques. This chapter deals with not only the detailed discussion of these analytical techniques but also sheds light on various applications of these analytical techniques in milk and meat products.

Abstract
In the rapidly evolving field of food science, nanotechnology-based biosensors are one of the most intriguing techniques for tracking meat freshness. Purine derivatives, especially hypoxanthine and xanthine, are important signs of food going bad, especially in meat and meat products. This article compares the analytical performance parameters of traditional biosensor techniques and nanotechnology-based biosensor techniques that can be used to find purine derivatives in meat samples. In the introduction, we discussed the significance of purine metabolisms as analytes in the field of food science. Traditional methods of analysis and biosensors based on nanotechnology were also briefly explained. A comprehensive section of conventional and nanotechnology-based biosensing techniques is covered in detail, along with their analytical performance parameters (selectivity, sensitivity, linearity, and detection limit) in meat samples. Furthermore, the comparison of the methods above was thoroughly explained. In the last part, the pros and cons of the methods and the future of the nanotechnology-based biosensors that have been created are discussed.

Abstract
Meat product is popular throughout the world due to its unique taste. Flavor is one of the most important quality characteristics of meat products and also is a key influencing factor in the overall acceptability of meat products. The flavor of meat products is formed by precursors undergoing a series of complex reactions. During meat product processing, lipids are hydrolyzed by lipase to produce flavor precursors such as free fatty acid, then further oxidized to form volatile flavor compounds. This review summarizes lipolysis, lipid oxidation, and interaction of lipid with Maillard reaction and amino acid during meat products processing and storage as well as influencing factors on lipid degradation including raw meat (source of meat, feeding pattern, and castration), processing methods (thermal processing, nonthermal processing, salting, and fermentation) and additives. Meanwhile, the volatile compounds produced by lipids in meat products including aldehydes, alcohols, ketones, and hydrocarbons are summed up. Analytical methods of volatile compounds and the application of lipidomics analysis in mechanisms of flavor formation of meat products are also reviewed. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Flavor is one of the most important quality characteristics of meat products, which influences the acceptability of meat products for consumption. Lipids play an important role in the flavor formation of meat products. Understanding the relationship between flavor compounds and changes in lipid compositions during the processing and storage of meat products will be helpful to control the quality of meat products.

Abstract
Japanese Black cattle (Japanese Wagyu) beef is attracting attention for its aroma and marbling, and its handling is increasing worldwide. Here, we focused on the origin discrimination of Wagyu beef and analyzed the nutritional components of Japanese Wagyu (produced in multiple prefectures of Japan), Hybrid Wagyu (a cross between Angus and Wagyu cattle born in Australia and transported to Japan), and Australian Wagyu beef using mass spectrometry (MS). Triple-quadrupole liquid chromatography-MS was used to clarify the molecular species of lipids in Wagyu beef. Fourteen classes of lipids were separated, and 128 different triacylglycerides (TGs) were detected. A simple comparative analysis of these TGs using high-performance liquid chromatography revealed significantly higher levels of triolein (C18:1/C18:1/C18:1; abbreviated OOO) and C18:1/C18:1/C16:1 (OOPo) in Japanese Wagyu. Wagyu elements beef were comprehensively analyzed using inductively coupled plasma (ICP)-MS and ICP-optical emission spectrometry. We found significant differences in the rubidium, cesium, and lithium levels of Japanese and Australian Wagyu beef. On comparing metabolites using gas chromatography-MS, we identified significant differences in the levels of amino acids and other components of the Japanese and Australian Wagyu beef. These results suggest the possibility of determining the origin of Wagyu cattle breeds using MS and genetic discrimination.

Abstract
This review aimed to provide an overview of meat science and technology in Japan influenced by Washoku (traditional Japanese cuisine) from the aspect of meat palatability. The tradition of umami (savory taste) research would contribute to a better understanding of the mechanism of taste improvement by aging, processing, and feeding. Paying close attention to delicate food aroma in Washoku would facilitate finding preferable Wagyu beef aroma, as well as odor substances affecting human physiological conditions. Sticking to various food textures could potentially facilitate the research of heating gel of meat and enzymatic and nonenzymatic theories for meat tenderization. High-pressure studies of meat propose a novel approach to producing low-salt products. Raw ham, Lachs-type ham, might fascinate people due to its moist texture similar to that of raw fish. Methods to season traditional fake meat using plant materials in Washoku could give a hint for improving substituted meat flavor.

Abstract
This study focused on characterizing the volatile profiles and contributing compounds in pan-fried steaks from different Chinese yellow cattle breeds. The volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of six Chinese yellow cattle breeds (bohai, jiaxian, yiling, wenshan, xinjiang, and pingliang) were analyzed by GC-Q-Orbitrap spectrometry and electronic nose (E-nose). Multivariate statistical analysis was performed to identify the differences in VOCs profiles among breeds. The relationship between odor-active volatiles and sensory evaluation was analyzed by partial least square regression (PLSR) to identify contributing volatiles in pan-fried steaks of Chinese yellow cattle. The results showed that samples were divided into two groups, and 18 VOCs were selected as potential markers for the differentiation of the two groups by GC-Q-Orbitrap combined multivariate statistical analysis. YL and WS were in one group comprising mainly aliphatic compounds, while the rest were in the other group with more cyclic compounds. Steaks from different breeds were better differentiated by GC-Q-Orbitrap in combination with chemometrics than by E-nose. Six highly predictive compounds were selected, including 3-methyl-butanal, benzeneacetaldehyde, 2-ethyl-6-methyl-pyrazine, 2-acetylpyrrole, 2-acetylthiazole, and 2-acetyl-2-thiazoline. Sensory recombination difference and preference testing revealed that the addition of highly predictive compounds induced a perceptible difference to panelists. This study provides valuable data to characterize and discriminate the flavor profiles in pan-fried steaks of Chinese yellow cattle.

Abstract
Aroma is an essential factor for meat quality. The meat of Japanese Black cattle exhibits fine marbling and a rich and sweet aroma with a characteristic lactone composition. The mechanism of lactone formation associated with beef aroma has not been elucidated. In this study, we examined the precursors of γ-hexalactone, an indicator of the sweet aroma of beef and identified the mechanism underlying γ-hexalactone production. A low-temperature vacuum system was used to prepare beef tallow from Japanese Black cattle and Holstein cattle. The odor components were identified using headspace–gas chromatography. The analysis revealed that γ-hexalactone, γ-dodecalactone, δ-tetradecalactone, and δ-hexadecalactone were present as sweet aroma components of beef tallow prepared from marbling and muscle. Since we previously reported that γ-hexalactone formation correlates with linoleic acid content in beef, we analyzed ten oxidized fatty acids derived from linoleic acid by liquid chromatography–triple quadrupole mass spectrometry and detected two hydroxy-octadecadienoic acids (9S-HODE and 13S-HODE) in beef tallow. Significant differences in arachidonic acid 15-lipoxygenase and cyclooxygenase protein expression levels among subcutaneous fat, intramuscular fat, and muscle tissue were observed. Our results suggest that the combination of linoleic acid and the expression of lipid oxidase derived from beef muscle and intramuscular fat produce hydroxy fatty acids that result in a sweet aroma.

Ammonium removal by erythrocyte-bioreactors based on glutamate dehydrogenase from Proteus sp. jointly with porcine heart alanine aminotransferase. Sci Rep 2022; 12:5437. [PMID: 35361872 PMCID: PMC8971454 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-022-09435-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/05/2021] [Accepted: 03/14/2022] [Indexed: 11/26/2022] Open
Abstract
Excessive ammonium blood concentration causes many serious neurological complications. The medications currently used are not very effective. To remove ammonium from the blood, erythrocyte-bioreactors containing enzymes that processing ammonium have been proposed. The most promising bioreactor contained co-encapsulated glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT). However, a low encapsulation of a commonly used bovine liver GDH (due to high aggregation), makes clinical use of such bioreactors impossible. In this study, new bioreactors containing ALT and non-aggregating GDH at higher loading were first produced using the flow dialysis method and the new bacterial GDH enzyme from Proteus sp. The efficacy of these erythrocyte-bioreactors and their properties (hemolysis, osmotic fragility, intracellular and extracellular activity of included enzymes, erythrocyte indices, and filterability) were studied and compared with native cells during 1-week storage. The ammonium removal rate in vitro by such erythrocyte-bioreactors increased linearly with an increase in encapsulated GDH activity. Alanine in vitro increased in accordance with ammonium consumption, which indicated the joint functioning of both included enzymes. Thus, novel bioreactors for ammonium removal containing GDH from Proteus sp. are promising for clinical use, since they have a more efficient GDH encapsulation and their properties are not inferior to previously obtained erythrocyte-bioreactors.

Abstract
Japanese Black cattle (Japanese Wagyu) have a unique phenotype in which ectopic intramuscular fat accumulates in skeletal muscle, producing finely marbled beef. However, the mechanism of intramuscular fat formation in Japanese Black cattle remains unclear. To investigate the key genes involved in intramuscular fat accumulation, we comprehensively analyzed mRNA levels in subcutaneous and intramuscular fat tissues using RNA sequence (RNA-seq) analysis, which detected 27,606 genes. We identified eight key genes, namely carboxypeptidase E, tenascin C, transgelin, collagen type IV alpha 5 (COL4A5), cysteine and glycine-rich protein 2, PDZ, and LIM domain 3, phosphatase 1 regulatory inhibitor subunit 14A, and regulator of calcineurin 2. These genes were highly and specifically expressed in intramuscular fat tissue. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed a collagen network, including COL4A5, in the basement membrane around the intramuscular fat tissue. Moreover, pathway analysis revealed that, in intramuscular fat tissue, differentially expressed genes are related to cell adhesion, proliferation, and cancer pathways. Furthermore, pathway analysis showed that the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) and small GTPases regulators RASGRP3, ARHGEF26, ARHGAP10, ARHGAP24, and DLC were upregulated in intramuscular fat. Our study suggests that these genes are involved in intramuscular fat formation in Japanese Black cattle.

Exploring the Lipids Involved in the Formation of Characteristic Lactones in Japanese Black Cattle. Metabolites 2021; 11:metabo11040203.

Abstract
The meat from Japanese Black cattle (Japanese Wagyu) is finely marbled and exhibits a rich and sweet aroma known as Wagyu beef aroma. To clarify the key metabolites involved in the aroma, we analyzed the correlation between lactone and lipid composition in Japanese Black cattle. Using gas chromatography-olfactometry, we identified 39 characteristic odorants of the intermuscular fat. Seven characteristic lactones considered to be involved in Wagyu beef aroma were quantified and compared in the marbled area and intermuscular fat using a stable isotope dilution assay. Among them, γ-hexalactone was the only lactone whose level was significantly higher in the marbled area. To explore the lipid species involved in lactone formation, we analyzed samples with different aroma characteristics. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry revealed eight lipid classes and showed significant differences in triacylglycerides (TAGs). To determine the molecular species of TAGs, we performed high-performance liquid chromatography analysis and identified 14 TAG species. However, these analyses showed that seven lactones had a low correlation with the TAGs. However, γ-hexalactone showed a positive correlation with linoleic acid. This study suggests that lipid composition affects the characteristic lactone profile involved in the Wagyu beef aroma.
