An ultra-high performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was established and validated for the simultaneous determination of six glycosidic aroma precursors in pomelo, including geraniol β-glucoside, geraniol β-primeveroside, linalool β-primeveroside, benzyl β-primeveroside, 2-phenylethyl β-primeveroside and nerolidol β-primeveroside. The results showed that the proposed method has the advantages of rapidity, high sensitivity, and good accuracy. Six glycosidic aroma precursors were effectively separated in a short run time (13 min), and the limit of detection, limit of quantification, recovery, and repeatability of analytes were 0.321-4.47 ng mL, 1.07-14.9 ng mL, 94.4-109.1%, and 5.2-14.5%, respectively. The developed method was applied to analyze the contents of glycosidic aroma precursors in different organs of pomelo plant, including leaves, flowers and fruits. The analytical result showed that glycosidic aroma precursor contents in plant leaves, flowers and fruits were in the range of 0-5964.9 μg kg, and more glycosidic aroma precursors were found in flowers than in leaves or fruits. It is envisioned that the proposed UPLC-MS/MS method have promising application in qualifying and quantifying these six glycosidic aroma precursors in pomelo.

The lack of sufficient flavour in perry represents a barrier to its further industrialization. This study aimed to investigate the effects of glutathione (GSH), β-glucosidase (Glu), and α-L-rhamnosidase (Rha) pretreatments, the fermentation temperature from 16 °C to 28 °C, and the aging time of 1, 2, and 3 years (PA1, PA2, and PA3) on the physicochemical properties, organic acids, and aroma profiles were investigated. The results demonstrated that the synergistic effect of Glu, Rha, and GSH was more effective than their individual or paired applications in enhancing the varietal aromas.

The present study aim to investigate the effects of three drying processes on the flavor-related compounds and sensory quality of summer black tea. A total of 234 flavonoids and 1200 volatile compounds were identified in tea samples by using UPLC-MS/MS and HS-SPME-GC-MS, respectively. It was found that the combining hot-air and roasting drying process increased the level of epigallocatechin, epicatechin, gallic acid, theaflavins, and umami and sweet amino acids in tea samples.

In this work, the functional activities including α-glucosidase, α-amylase, angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity, and antioxidant activity of mixed grains (mung beans, cowpeas, and quinoa) fermented with Bacillus amyloliquefaciens SY07 were investigated. The volatile flavor of the mixed grains collected every 12 h during 72 h-fermentation were further detected as well. The inhibition on α-glucosidase and α-amylase reached up to 89.

Shaking and standing (SS) enhances the aroma intensity and quality of black tea (BT). However, its contribution to the taste remains unknown, and the interaction mechanism between the aroma and taste perception of black tea is also undisclosed. Here, the metabolomics and sensory evaluation-assisted flavor analysis were employed to investigate the changes in non-volatiles induced by SS, and the interaction mechanism between aroma and taste perception.

In order to investigate the impact of hot air (HA) treatment on the sugars and volatiles in postharvest nectarine fruit, nectarines were treated with HA at 40 °C for 4 h and stored at 1 °C for 35 days. Changes of sugars, free and glycosidically bound volatiles, β-glucosidase (β-Glu) activity, and the gene expression of UGT (UDP-glucosyltransferase) in nectarine fruit were determined. The results showed that compared with CK, HA treatment delayed the firmness decline of 48.
