The effects of odors generated by the Maillard reaction from amino acids and reducing sugars on physiological parameters (blood pressure, heart rate, and oxidative stress levels) in Wistar rats were investigated in the present study. The Maillard reaction samples were obtained from glycine, arginine, or lysine of 1.0 mol/L and glucose of 1.0 mol/L with heat treatment. The odor-active compounds in the Maillard reaction samples were identified using the aroma extract dilution analysis. Among the odor-active compounds identified, 2,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxy-3(2H)-furanone (DMHF, FURANEOL and strawberry furanone) had the highest odor activity and its concentration was affected by amino acid types. The Maillard reaction odors generated from glycine or arginine significantly decreased systolic blood pressure and heart rate in rats when inhaled. These physiological effects were associated with DMHF. Furthermore, oxidative stress marker levels in rat plasma were decreased by the inhalation of DMHF. The inhalation of DMHF appears to at least partly affect physiological parameters by decreasing oxidative stress.

Interactions between manganese dioxides (MnO) and dissolved organic matter (DOM) have long been the subject of scientific inquiry. However, the effect of MnO crystallinity on the DOM fate remains unclear. Herein, we comprehensively investigate the adsorption, protection, and mineralization of DOM by MnO with various crystallinities (order of crystallinity: γ-30 < γ-90 < γ-120).

Reactive carbonyl species (RCS) are a class of compounds with one or more C = O structures with highly reactive electrophilic properties. This comprehensive review delves into the multifaceted role of RCS in thermally processed foods, where they serve as both crucial intermediates in the development of food color and flavor, as well as precursors of potentially harmful compounds. By exploring the carbonyl pool concept, the impact of RCS equilibrium on the formation and reduction of hazardous substances such as acrylamide, hydroxymethylfurfural, advanced glycation end-products, and heterocyclic amines was elucidated.

In this study, we developed a double-layer colon-targeted microcapsule. It used the Maillard product of gelatin-isomaltooligosaccharide (GI180) and zein-shellac complex (ZS) as bio-based materials, plant extracts (MPL) and Lactobacillus plantarum JJBYG12 (JJBYG12) were co-encapsulated, endowing them with strong resistance to harsh environments and precise intestinal adhesion and targeting ability. The research results indicated that ZS11 exhibits hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions.
