Pickled radish is a local specialty fermented food, loved for its unique flavor. In this study, the volatile components of pickled radish from different years were identified and analyzed, and 82 volatile metabolites were finally identified and 39 volatile differential metabolites were screened out, which showed that the contents of γ-butyrolactone, 3-furaldehyde and ethyl lactate showed an increasing trend. Odor activity value (OAV) analysis showed that 3-furaldehyde, dimethyl tetrasulphide and linolenic acid were important aroma components in pickled radish. In addition, the potential pathways for the formation of volatile metabolites in pickled radish were preliminarily constructed based on the KEGG database, in which alcohols, aldehydes and acids contributed to the formation of the unique flavor of pickled radish. The present study reveals the systematic changes of volatile metabolites in pickled radish and provides a new perspective to understand the changes of its flavor characteristics.

The key metabolites and control targets involved during fermentation of pickle need to be identified to improve its quality. This study aims to explore the changes in the quality of white radish during fermentation and the formation rules of key and harmful metabolites in pickle and pickle solutions. Results showed that the flavor profile of the pickle became more complex during fermentation.

In a prospective 12-week intervention trial, we evaluated the effects of six different plant-based fermented pickles (∼50g/day) on clinical, inflammatory, and gut-microbiome parameters in women (n=230) in a rural setting with a high prevalence of undernutrition. Blood was collected at two, whereas stool was collected at three timepoints.

Nukadoko, a fermented rice bran bed for pickling vegetables called nukazuke, has a complex microbiota. Within it, deep interactions between the microbiota of the pickled vegetables and nukadoko characterize and control the qualities of both products. To address this notion, we monitored the changes in the microbiota of nukadoko and nukazuke while pickling different vegetables.

Electrical taste technologies designed to modify the taste of foods have recently garnered increasing recognition as a viable strategy to regulate excessive salt intake. Transcutaneous electrical stimulation (TES) is a method used in non-invasive electrical taste stimulation, which involves the placement of electrodes near the mouth (not inside the mouth) to avoid disruption of natural eating behavior. Previous studies have demonstrated the taste-enhancing effect of anodal TES (aTES) applied to the anterior part of the jaw.
