Headspace volatile compounds of cold-stored and freeze-dried Krill Eupausia superba were analyzed to investigate their flavor qualities using a system combining a dynamic headspace isolator, an automatic thermal desorber, and a gas chromatograph-mass-selective detector. Levels of oxidation products of polyunsaturated fatty acids such as aldehydes, alcohols, and ketones, which are known to give seafood a nasty smell because of their low flavor threshold values, increased during cold storage of krill. Notably, levels of 2-methylpropanal, 3-methylbutanal, 2-methylbutanal and 2-butanone increased during its storage. They can be considered index compounds of off-odor according to freshness degradation during storage. By contrast, in freeze-dried krill powder, levels of aldehydes, ketones, and aromatic compounds decreased rapidly. Only alcohols, which did not greatly affect the food flavor, were isolated in large amounts. It was confirmed that levels of oxidized compounds of krill increased during cold storage, but decreased in freeze-dried krill.

Effects of metal chelating agents and metal ions on the volatile substance of cooked oil with chicken and pork mixture meat were examined by chemical analysis and sensory test. The addition of Na-tripolyphosphate(Na-TPP) to chicken and pork mixture meat increased the amount of H2S among volatiles evolved during cooking but decreased that of volatile carbonyl compounds(VCC) This treatment enhanced meat flavor in cooked oil with chicken and pork mixture. It was recognized that the increase in Ha5 evolution was caused by the rise of pH value. On the contrary cupric ion produced a negative effect on the production of chicken and pork mixture meat flavor and this addition increased VCC and TBA value. Other metal chelating agents such as citric acid, phytic acid and EDTA, provided the same results as Na-TPP. It was supposed that these phenomena were attributable to the chelating action to metal prooxidant in mixture meat at could be concluded that a proper evolution of H2S and protection against lipid oxidation during cooking were important to produce an excellent chicken and pork mixture meat flavor.

Detection of specific compounds influencing food flavor quality is not easy. Electronic nose, comprised of electronic chemical sensors with partial specificity and appropriate pattern recognition system, is capable of recognizing simple and complex volatiles. It provides fast analysis with simple and straightforward results and is best suited for quality control and process monitoring of flavor in food industry. This review examines application of electronic nose in food analysis with brief explanation of its principle. Characteristics of different sensors and sensor drift. and solutions to related problems are reviewed. Applications of electronic nose in food industry include monitoring of fermentation process and lipid oxidation, prediction of shelf life, identification of irradiated volatile compounds, discrimination of food material origin, and quality control of food and processing by principal component analysis and neural network analysis. Electronic nose could be useful for quality control in food industry when correlating analytical instrumental data with sensory evaluation results.

Volatile flavor components of edible portion of leek(Allium tuberosum R.) were extracted by SDE(simultaneous steam distillation and extraction) method using the mixture of n-pentane and diethylether (1 : 1, v/v) as an extract solvent and analyzed by GC-FID and GC/MS. Identification of the volatile flavor components was mostly based on the RI of GC and mass spectrum of GC/MS. A total of sixty-five components from leek extract were classified as 28 sulfur-containing compounds, 12 aldehydes, 9 alcohols, 4 lactones and esters, 3 acids and hydrocarbons, and 2 miscellaneous compouds. The sulfur-containing compounds were predominant in leek extract. Dimethyl disulfide(19.47%) and dimethyl trisulfide(17.38%) were the main compounds and trans-1-propenyl methyl disulfide, trans-2-hexenal and methyl allyl disulfide were also detected large amounts in leek.

Donkey in China is well known for its draft purpose and transportation; however, donkey meat has attracted more and more consumers in recent years, yet it lacks sufficient information on its flavor components compared to other main meats. Therefore, in this study, volatile flavor compounds in neck meat of donkey, swine, bovine, and sheep were classified by electronic nose, then confirmed and quantified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography were used to quantify free fatty acid, amino acid, and flavor nucleotide. A total of 73 volatile compounds were identified, and aldehydes were identified as the characteristic flavor compounds in neck meat of donkey, bovine, swine and sheep in proportion of 76.39%, 46.62%, 31.64%, and 35.83%, respectively. Particularly, hexanal was the most abundant volatile flavor. Compared with other neck meat, much higher unsaturated free fatty acids were present in donkeys. Furthermore, neck meat of donkeys showed essential amino acid with highest content. Thus, special flavor and nutrition in donkey neck meat make it probably a candidate for consumers in other regions besides Asia.

Volatile flavor components in three pear varieties (Pyrus pyriforia N.) of traditional cultivar, Bongri, Hwangsilri and Yongmokri, were collected by SDE method using the mixture of n-pentane and diethylether as an extract solvent and were identified by GC/MS. Among 97 compounds identified from all varieties, there were 72, 58 and 66 components in Bongri, Hwangsilri and Yongmokri, respectively. Ethyl acetate was the dominant constituent in all cultivars and also volatile profiles contained large quantity of ethanol and acetic acid. Butyl acetate identified as a main component in Bongri was not found in other pears, but in Hwangrilri and Yongmokri only 4 to 5 esters played important role in total volatile flavor composition. The volatile profiles of these three varieties were characterized by compounds in group of aldehydes, esters, alcohols, acids and ketones. As classified by functional group of separated and identified components, esters and alcohols in Bongri, alcohols in Hwangsilri, and esters in Yongmokri were roled as the title in composition of volatile flavor components. Although small amount, Yongmokri had the highest rate of volatile production at 6.552 mg/kg of pear while Hwangsilri produced the lowest at 4.175 mg/kg of pear.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and volatile flavor components of aronia wine (Aronia melanocarpa (0~100%)). After 12 days of fermentation, the alcohol contents of aronia wines ranged between 9.0~12.0%. The pH level and total acidity of aronia wines were 3.20~3.68 and 0.57~0.76 g/100 mL, respectively. The organic acid analysis of wine containing 100% aronia, revealed malic acid content at 3.70 mg/mL, followed by tartaric acid, lactic acid, and citric acid. As the aronia content increased, both the total polyphenol content and the antioxidant activity (the DPPH radical scavenging activity) also significantly increased. The total polyphenol content was the highest in the wine with 100% aronia (461.33 mg%), and the antioxidant activity showed the highest values in the wine with 100% aronia (91.91%). Volatile flavor component analysis of aronia wines identified 8 alcohols, 12 esters, 4 ketones, and 7 other compounds. In the sensory evaluation, the color, flavor, and taste of wine with 20% aronia showed higher values than other aronia wines. Based on the results of the present study, we suggest that 20% aronia is most beneficial in improving the quality as well as sensory characteristics of the wine.
