Background: Marinating is a Chinese traditional meat-processing method using aged brine that brings popular flavor together with food safety issues. In this study a novel method named quantitative marinating (QM) was developed to improve Chinese traditional marinating (TM). Flavor compounds and sensory profiles of two marinated products were determined to verify if the improved marinating method could maintain the characteristic flavors of TM.

Results: Fifty-four, 60, 60, 60 and 44 volatile flavor compounds were identified from four processing stages of QM and TM respectively. Contents of taste compounds first increased and then decreased in the processing stages of QM. The total free amino acid contents of QM and TM products were 789 and 536 mg per 100 g respectively. The total nucleotide content of QM product (22.21 mg per 100 g) was higher than that of TM (20.75 mg per 100 g), while the fatty acid content of QM product (26.66 mg g(-1)) was lower than that of TM (44.43 mg g(-1)). Finally, QM received higher sensory scores than TM.

Conclusion: Volatile flavor compounds, taste compounds and sensory properties of QM were richer than those of TM, indicating that QM can not only maintain the original aroma of TM but also have advantages in taste compounds.

In this study, the dynamic effects of ultrasonic treatment (0-400 W) on the volatile flavor compounds of pumpkin juice under different storage periods were investigated systematically using a combination of headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) and gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) techniques. A total of 139 and 46 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were identified by GC-MS and GC-IMS, respectively. The results indicated that complex changes in volatile components occurred during storage.

In this study, the aroma profiles of high- and low-alcohol Jiangxiangxing Baijiu were compared through sensory analysis, revealing significant differences in acidic, floral, fruity, smoky and oxidized oil notes. To further clarify the underlying causes of aroma differences, we examined the concentrations of 106 important compounds, revealing that the concentrations differences between the two were generally 1 to 2 times. Furthermore, the determination results of the olfactory thresholds (OTs) indicated that the OT of 87 aroma compounds was less than the OT, with 68 compounds exhibiting OT changes ranging from 2 to 17 times.

This study investigated the effect of different processing methods (boiling, oil boiling, and stir frying) on the flavor of hoki steak soups. The quality of different fillet broths was explored by pH, Thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS), and color. E-nose, E-tongue, and gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) combined with free amino acids (FAAs) were used to analyze the flavor of hoki steak soups.
