The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of oxygen in the storage atmosphere on the degradation of model compounds when present in water or a medium chain triglyceride (MCT) matrix. A model aroma compound mixture was prepared in oil (MCT) or water, and it was then stored under either an ambient air or argon atmosphere containing respectively ca. 20% and <0.5% residual oxygen. Samples were analyzed by SPME-GC/MS to determine the relative stability over time of different classes of aroma compounds. The low-oxygen atmosphere appeared to have a significant protective effect on sulfur compounds, aldehydes, and ketones in oil but a detrimental influence on pyrroles. Data showed little influence of the atmosphere for these compounds in water. In addition, the type of matrix had a significant effect (P < 0.05) on the stability of aldehydic, ester, and pyrrole compounds. These compounds were more stable in MCT than in water.

This study investigates the aroma characterization of unique white tea varieties from the Lüchun county of Yunnan province, Mainland China. These include shaken, unshaken, steam-cooked, and compressed varieties. The aroma profile of white tea varieties was analyzed using two-dimensional gas chromatography-olfactometry-mass spectrometry (GC×GC-O-MS), electronic nose (e-nose), and descriptive sensory evaluation.

Stacking fermentation is critical in sauce-flavor production, but winter production often sees abnormal fermentations, like Waistline and Sub-Temp fermentation, affecting yield and quality. This study used three machine learning models (Logistic Regression, KNN, and Random Forest) combined with multi-omics (metagenomics and flavoromics) to develop a classification model for abnormal fermentation. SHAP analysis identified 13 Sub-Temp Fermentation and 9 Waistline microbial biomarkers, along with 9 Sub-Temp Fermentation and 12 Waistline flavor biomarkers.

"Rui Yang", "Rui Xue", and "Rui Xiang Hong" are newly cultivated apple varieties with excellent flavor. However, the key aroma-active compounds responsible for its excellent flavor quality were unclear. This study determined the characteristics of aroma compounds among three new apple varieties and their parental species by Sensomics.

Green is no longer the only color used to describe tea leaves. As tea plants with different leaf colors-white, yellow, and purple-yield significant economic benefits, scholars are growing increasingly curious about whether these differently colored leaves possess unique aromatic characteristics. Headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) combined with GC-MS was used to analyze the volatile metabolites of buds and leaves from 7 white-leaf tea plants, 9 yellow-leaf tea plants, 4 purple-leaf tea plants, and 7 normal (green) tea plants.

Fragile X syndrome (FXS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder oftentimes associated with abnormal social behaviors and altered sensory responsiveness. It is hypothesized that the inappropriate filtering of sensory stimuli, including olfaction, can lead to aberrant social behavior in FXS. However, previous studies investigating olfaction in animal models of FXS have shown inconsistent results.
