AI Article Synopsis

  • Gracilaria lemaneiformis contains bioactive natural products and has a fishy odor that can be reduced by specific strains of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Lactobacillus paracasei.
  • The study explored the fermentation process with these microbes to identify changes in volatile aroma substances using HS-SPME-GC/MS techniques.
  • Key findings showed that fermentation significantly reduced unpleasant odors linked to compounds like 3-octanone, revealing metabolic mechanisms behind the deodorization process.

Article Abstract

Gracilaria lemaneiformis is a source of several bioactive natural products in China. Previously, we obtained Saccharomyces cerevisiae JJ4 and Lactobacillus paracasei paracasei RP38, that reduced the fishy odor of G. lemaneiformis. However, the associated deodorization mechanisms remain unclear. Here, G. lemaneiformis was fermented using single strain JJ4, single strain RP38, and both strains together. Dynamic changes in volatile aroma substances during fermentation were measured using HS-SPME-GC/MS. We found that the unpleasant aromas of raw G. lemaneiformis were primarily due to 3-octanone, cyclooctanol, and 1-methylcycloheptanol. Fermentation with lactic acid bacteria and yeast could reduce the substances associated with unpleasant aromas. The potentially characteristic aromatic substances consumed and produced by the different strains were determined using Opls-da and Spearman's correlations with VIP value >1 and |r| > 0.6. These results help to clarify the metabolic mechanisms by which different microbes reduce the fishy smell of G. lemaneiformis.

Oven roasting effects on the physicochemical and chemosensory characteristics of hemp seeds ( L.).

J Food Sci Technol

February 2025

Department of GreenBio Science/Food Science and Technology, Gyeongsang National University, Jinju, 52725 Republic of Korea.

Physicochemical properties and flavor characteristics of hemp seeds (HS) were analyzed by roasting temperature (140 °C, 160 °C, 180 °C) and time (initial, 3, 6, 9, 12 min). HS with roasting showed a lightness () with increasing roasting time. Total flavonoid content (TFC) decreased significantly with roasting compared to initial, and total phenolic content (TPC) tended to decrease with increasing roasting time at low temperatures (140 °C), but relatively high temperatures (160 °C and 180 °C), TPC increased significantly with increasing roasting time.

School of Biotechnology and Key Laboratory of Industrial Biotechnology of Ministry of Education, Jiangnan University, Wuxi 214122, PR China.

1-Propanol is an important aroma compound in sauce-flavor Baijiu. However, the mechanism by which it affects the aroma of sauce-flavor Baijiu has not been fully investigated. In this study, an instrumental and perceptual analysis was employed to assess the impact of 1-propanol on the flavor and volatile compounds in sauce-flavor Baijiu.

Odor emissions, primarily from anthropogenic activities like waste treatment and industrial processes, pose significant challenges in urban areas, particularly near water resource recovery facilities. While these emissions are generally not toxic, they can adversely affect community wellbeing and investment, prompting stricter regulations in some regions. For example, New York State's hydrogen sulfide guidelines are more stringent than federal standards.

The aroma and nutrition of Japanese apricot fruit change continuously as the fruit ripens. The differences in fruit aroma and nutrition can affect the resulting wine, which is produced by steeping the Japanese apricot fruit. In this study, we used HS-SPME-GC-MS to examine the aromatic compositions of Japanese apricot fruit and wine produced from its macerated fruit at different levels of ripeness.
