Greengage alcoholic beverage (GAB) is gaining popularity for its distinctive fruity aroma and nutritional benefits. The strain applied for fermentation significantly influences the metabolic production of aroma compounds, making the selection of strains to be critical for enhancing the unique flavor profile of the GAB in commercial production. In this study, the effects of two common commercial strains (SY, EC-1118) and two laboratory-derived strains (ET008-c54, NM-8) on the flavor profile of the GAB were investigated.

DON in malt can migrate into the final beer product, posing a food safety risk to consumers.

In this work, an electrochemical sensor based on carbon nanohorns@reduced graphene oxide coated by gold platinum core-shell nanoparticles (Au@Pt/CNHs@RGO/GCE) was prepared for CBZ detection. The results showed that the assembly of CNHs and RGO assisted by ultrasound improved the electron transfer ability and electrochemical active surface area of CNHs@RGO.

Firstly, the primary emulsion suitable for malting process was screened and the improvement effect of chitosan coating on the properties of primary emulsion was studied. On this basis, chitosan-based essential oil emulsion was applied to malting processing.
