Dianhong tea (DHT) is popular for its pleasant caramel-like aroma. In this study, the aroma profile of high-grade DHT have been studied using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O) combined with headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME). A total of 52 aroma-active compounds were identified by GC-O coupled with aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA) and odor specific magnitude estimation (Osme). Among them, quantification of 21 aroma-active compounds indicated that the content of linalool (5928 µg/kg) was the highest in high-grade DHT, followed by phenylethanol (3923 µg/kg) and phenylacetaldehyde (1801 µg/kg). Sensory-directed aroma recombination and omission tests further verified that phenylacetaldehyde, linalool, geraniol and 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine were important contributors to the overall sensory characteristics of high-grade DHT which dominated mainly by floral, sweet and caramel-like odors. This work will provide a theoretical reference for comprehensively understanding the aroma characteristic of DHT.

Seventy-eight autochthonous strains of were isolated from rice wine starter samples across twenty-nine regions in China to evaluate their potential in traditional rice wine fermentation. Strains were assessed for enzyme activity, antioxidant properties, amino acid production, and volatile flavour compounds. Significant variation in enzyme activities was observed, with acidic protease activity ranging from 280 to 1023 U/g, amylase from 557 to 1681 U/g, and esterase from 370 to 2949 U/g.

"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.

High moisture Mozzarella cheese is particularly popular because of its freshness and milky flavor, however the difference in aroma compound composition between high moisture Mozzarella cheese made from bovine (BOC) and buffalo milk (BUC) remains unclear. Herein, the volatile compounds of 2 kinds of Mozzarella cheese were qualitatively and quantitatively analyzed by SPME-GC × GC-O-TOFMS, SPME-Arrow-GC-MS and GC-IMS for the first time. A total of 139 volatile compounds were identified (69 aroma active compounds were sniffed), of which 106 were identified in BOC and 96 in BUC.

Key odorants of juices of pomegranate fruits of Hicaz variety obtained from different juice production stages (fresh: FrPJ, pasteurized: PPJ, filtered: FiPJ, and concentrated: CPJ) were examined. Processing significantly impacted the volatile compounds. The FrPJ and PPJ samples had higher concentrations of aroma compounds than the FiPJ and CPJ samples.

The volatile profile of bee pollen samples from Central and Eastern Europe was investigated by headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-olfactometry (GC-MS-O). Sampling conditions were optimized for the extraction of volatiles. Pollen odorants were extracted with six different fiber coatings, five various extraction times, three diverse extraction temperatures and three differing desorption times.
