Published: September 2007

Gelatin-sucrose gels containing the same amount of flavor compounds present as either suspended droplets or homogenously distributed in the gel (dissolved) were eaten, and the in vivo flavor release was studied using atmospheric pressure chemical ionization-mass spectrometry. The maximum intensity of release was higher from all droplet-containing samples as compared with the dissolved sample (by a factor of 4-2500-fold). When the flavor was dispersed as a greater number of smaller droplets rather than one 1 microL droplet, the intensity of in vivo release was slightly lower. The release of 16 of the flavor compounds varied in their Log P (range 0.26-4.83) and vapor pressure (Log vapor pressure ranged from -1.09 to 1.99). The differences in release for flavors present as either droplets or dissolved in the gel matrix were strongly influenced by both of these factors. This suggested a different mechanism for flavor release from droplets as compared to the classical partition mechanism established for dissolved flavors.

The effect of incorporating 4-hydroxy-2,5-dimethyl-3(2H)-furanone (furaneol) during soy protein isolate (SPI) preparation on off-flavor compounds was investigated. Sensory evaluation revealed that furaneol addition effectively reduced undesirable attributes such as grain husk, grassy, raw bean, tofu and oil oxidation, with the most significant decrease at 2 mg/L. Flavor analysis confirmed a significant reduction in both the variety and amount of off-flavors.

Polyvinylpyrrolidone K30 was used as the templating agent, and ammonium bicarbonate was used as the pore-forming agent to make porous mannitol and porous lactose by the template and pore-forming agent method, respectively. Compared with the template method, the porous particles prepared by the pore-forming agent method have larger pore diameter (320.276 nm and 250.

Characterization of key flavor compounds in cinnamon bark oil extracts using principal component analysis.

Food Res Int

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Food Science and Technology, Jiangnan University, Wuxi, Jiangsu 214122, China. Electronic address:

Cinnamon is a widely used spice, known for its distinctive flavor and aromatic properties. Due to its lignified structure, the release of flavor components typically requires prolonged stewing (1-2 h). To simulate the release of flavor components during stewing, this study employed corn oil for extraction, avoiding the use of organic solvents.
