饮料酒中挥发性酚类物质分析方法研究进展

挥发性酚类化合物是饮料酒的香味组成部分,对于酒的闻香、口味及稳定性等方面均具有重要的作用.有研究者认为,4-乙基苯酚(4-EP)和4-乙摹愈创木酚(4-EG)这2种挥发性酚,其在酒中的总浓度小于400μg/L时,为酒的风味贡献了辛香、烟香韵和革香韵;当其总浓度了大于620μg/L时,会使酒中产生腥异味,掩盖酒的香味.因此对酒中挥发性酚类物质的分析测定一直是研究的课题.目前饮料酒中挥发性酚的测定,主要采用各种样品前处理过程结合气相色谱或液相色谱的方法.随着先进仪器和设备的使用,样品前处理过程不断简化,饮料酒中挥发性酚的分析和测定正逐步向着简单、快速、准确度高的方向发展.文中综述了饮料酒中挥发性酚类物质分析方法的研究进展.     

Evaluation of volatile compounds and antioxidant capacity of some commercial rums from Dominican republic

Some Dominican ‘heavy’ rums, of a single brand, available commercially and labelled as 8, 15, 18, 21 and 25 year‐old have been evaluated and compared. Headspace solid‐phase microextraction (HS‐SPME) coupled to gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) was used to analyse volatile compounds and crocin kinetic competition test to evaluate their antioxidant capacity. The alcohols and esters profiles of rums labelled as 21‐ and 25 year‐old were similar. The alcohols and fatty acids profiles of rums labelled as 15 and 18 year‐old were similar. The esters profile of rums labelled as 8 and 15 year‐old was similar. Significant differences were found for aldehydes and volatile phenols between all the rum samples. The antioxidant capacity resulted significantly higher in the older rums (21 and 25 year‐old) than in the younger ones (8, 15 and 18 year‐old).     

Influence of fermentation parameters on phytochemical profile and volatile properties of mulberry (Morus nigra) wine

In the present study Box–Behnken Design was employed to analyse the effects of fermentation parameters such as temperature (T _F), pH, inoculum size (I _S) and °Brix (B_X) on total phenolic concentration (TPC), total flavonoid concentration (TFC), total anthocyanin concentration (TAC), ethanol concentration (ETHC), total higher alcohol concentration (THAC) and total ester concentration (TESC) for the development of a phytochemical‐rich wine using mulberry as a substrate. The results demonstrated that fermentation parameters significantly alter the wine characteristics. Hence, a wine with excellent consumer preference (overall acceptability of 8.51) and high concentration of phytochemicals (TPC = 6014.03 ± 27.80 mg L⁻¹, TFC = 4791.35 ± 21.22 mg L⁻¹, TAC = 1480.72 ± 5.33 mg L⁻¹) as well as good aromatic properties (ETCH =82.85 ± 0.87 g L⁻¹, THAC =249.91 ± 0.31 mg L⁻¹ and TESC =52.55 ± 0.17 mg L⁻¹) with high antioxidant activity (DPPH =220.18 mmol·l⁻¹) was obtained at optimized fermentation conditions of T _F = 25°C, pH = 4.00, I _S = 10% (v /v) and B_X = 26. The results from the present study might contribute to strengthening the development of wine containing high concentrations of phytochemical compounds with attractive olfactory attributes.

Changes in volatile aroma compounds of organic fragrant rice during storage under different conditions

BACKGROUND: Aroma of fragrant rice greatly affects palatability as well as consumer acceptability. Loss of desirable volatile compounds such as 2‐acetyl‐1‐pyrroline (2‐AP) and increase in volatile lipid oxidation products in aged rice have been reported. The aim of this study was to monitor the changes in key volatile compounds of organic red fragrant rice cv. Hom Daeng during storage. Effects of packaging material, storage temperature and time were evaluated using solid phase microextraction/gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. RESULTS: Thirteen key volatile compounds including ten lipid oxidation products were monitored. For samples vacuum packed in Nylon/LLDPE pouches at ambient temperature, significant increases in hexanal, 2‐pentylfuran, 1‐octanol and 4‐vinyl guaiacol and significant decreases in 2‐AP and geranyl acetone were found after the second month (P?0.05). Vacuum packing in OPP/Al/LLDPE pouches or storage at 15 °C better retarded the formation of volatile lipid oxidation products and greater retained desirable odorants, including 2‐AP. However, accumulation of lipid oxidation products and 4‐vinyl guaiacol was apparent after the sixth month under these storage conditions. CONCLUSION: A greater extent and higher rate of undesirable changes in volatile compounds were found in samples stored under Nylon/LLDPE/ambient temperature condition. Nevertheless, this condition is acceptable for the retail trade of organic rice in Thailand. Storage conditions using reduced temperature or better packaging materials may be more appropriate for exported rice or superior‐grade fragrant rice to better maintain the desirable rice aroma.

Comparison of volatile compounds in yoghurts made from cows’, buffaloes’, ewes’ and goats’ milks

The composition of the volatile fraction of yoghurts made from cows’, buffaloes’, ewes’ and goats’ milks was investigated during the 28 days of storage at 4 °C using solid‐phase microextraction technique (SPME) and gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry analysis (GC/MS). A total of 34 volatile compounds were identified in yoghurts during their storage at 4 °C, including aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, esters, acids, terpenes, hydrocarbons and sulphur compounds. In this study, acetaldehyde, diacetyl and acetoin, considered as the major compounds of yoghurt, were detected in all yoghurts.     

Vacuum-packed ripened sausages: evolution of volatile compounds during storage

BACKGROUND: Various studies have shown the ability of volatile compounds to influence the quality of charcuterie products because of their effect on sensorial properties. To the best of our knowledge, there are no data in the scientific literature concerning the evolution of volatile compounds of vacuum‐packed ripened sausages over time. The aim of this work was to evaluate the evolution of volatile compounds in vacuum‐packed ripened sausages over time, considering that this kind of packaging is the most commonly used to prolong the shelf‐life of these products. RESULTS: Sixty‐nine volatile compounds were identified. Those derived from spices represented the prevailing compounds at the beginning of storage and significantly decreased (P < 0.001) during 5 months of storage, as a result of the well‐known antioxidant activity. Conversely, compounds derived from the autoxidation of lipids, which are among those chiefly responsible of sensorial properties of meat products, significantly increased (P < 0.001). CONCLUSION: The research demonstrated that vacuum packaging influenced the evolution of volatile compounds during storage of ripened sausages. In particular, the increase of volatile compounds derived from autoxidation of the lipid fraction indicated that oxidative processes involved the fatty fraction of ripened sausages also in the scarcity of oxygen.

Determination of the volatile profile of stoned table olives from different varieties by using HS-SPME and GC/IT-MS

BACKGROUND: The volatile composition of alcaparras stoned table olives produced from five of the most representative olive cultivars (cv. Cobrançosa, Madural, Negrinha de Freixo, Santulhana and Verdeal Transmontana) from the Trás‐os‐Montes region (north‐east of Portugal) was analytically characterised using headspace–solid phase microextraction/gas chromatography–ion trap–mass spectrometry. RESULTS: Overall, 42 volatile compounds were identified, belonging to distinct chemical classes: 15 aldehydes, seven esters, five alcohols, five sesquiterpenes, four norisoprenoids derivates, three monoterpenes, o ne ketone and two alkenes. Aldehydes were the major chemical class identified in all olive cultivars studied (more than 74% of all the volatile compounds identified). Hexanal, phenylacetaldehyde and (E,E)‐2,4‐heptadienal were the major volatile compounds identified. CONCLUSIONS: It was possible to discriminate the results obtained from the volatile profile of the five olive cultivars by using principal component analysis. Both qualitative and quantitative fractions of alcaparras table olives were influenced by olive cultivar, which confers a single aroma. This fact certainly influences consumer preference and acceptability towards a specific olive cultivar. Copyright © 2011 Society of Chemical Industry

Volatile aroma compounds in wines from Chinese wild/hybrid species

The volatile aroma compounds in wines produced from Chinese wild/hybrid species were investigated in comparison to wines from European grapes. Volatiles were extracted by headspace solid‐phase micro‐extraction and identified by gas‐chromatography/mass‐spectrometry. The identification of analyte was performed by a combination of the linear retention index approach with the comparison of the obtained mass spectra. A total of 98 peaks were tentatively assigned as wine aroma components, and 15 odorants can be found at concentrations above their odor threshold among the odor activity values (OAVs) of 46 compounds evaluated in all of the wines. The “OAVs’ aroma wheels” showed that the classes of aromatic series are first fruity, next herbaceous and roasty and no spicy and caramelized notes. Via principal component analysis, all the grape germplasm studied could be divided into four groups: “Jingsheng‐1,” “Cabernet Gernischt,” “Beibinghong,” and others, which exhibited distinctive aroma features, respectively. Practical applications Chinese wild grape species have many desirable properties for wine grape breeding such as possessing strong resistant genes to fungal diseases and cold condition, especially after hybridization with European grapes. As an emerging wine country, wines from Chinese wild/hybrid species have achieved much success in the last few years. The chemical content and biological properties have been studied extensively in many but there are a few studies in our knowledge about the wine tastes of these species. In this paper, the key odorants in wines produced from the Chinese grape species of V. amurensis Rupr., V. davidii Foex., and V. quinquangularis Rehd. and its hybrids were characterized in comparison to wines produced from European grapes (V. vinifera). The findings will help to the further understanding of the key aroma components in the different Chinese grapevine germplasm, and make further efforts to enrich the wine types in the marketplace.     

Changes in volatile compounds of peanut oil during the roasting process for production of aromatic roasted peanut oil

The changes in volatile compounds composition of peanut oil during the roasting process of aromatic roasted peanut oil (ARPO) production were investigated. The analyses were performed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry combined with headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME/GC-MS). Among the volatiles identified in ARPO, the N-heterocyclic chemical class possessed the highest relative percentage area (RPA) 61.68%, followed by O-heterocyclic group with an RPA of 24.57%. Twenty pyrazines were considered to be the key contributors to the intense nutty/roasty flavor typical of ARPO. Compounds that increased significantly in concentration during the roasting process were mainly Maillard reaction products, as well as compounds derived from Strecker degradation and lipid peroxidation. The results clearly showed that the roasting process was necessary to obtain the typical nutty/roasty aroma of ARPO. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: ARPO is the traditional edible oil in China that possesses a characteristic strong nutty and roasty flavor that distinguishes it from other edible vegetable oils. During the production, the roasting process is the crucial factor for the formation of the typical roasted peanut aroma that plays an important role in sensory quality of peanut oil. In our investigation, not only the volatile changes of peanut oil pressed from relevant peanut seeds roasted at different roasting time were determined, but also the contributions of identified volatiles on the typical nutty/roasty flavor of ARPO were discussed. Our work clearly demonstrated the significant effect of roasting process on the typical flavor formation of ARPO. The results are valuable as scientific guidance for the roasting process that better satisfy demands of the peanut oil industries for better flavor.     

Determination of volatile compounds of precooked prawn (Penaeus vannamei) and cultured gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) stored in ice as possible spoilage markers using solid phase microextraction and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry

BACKGROUND: Solid phase microextraction (SPME) and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) have been reported as useful techniques for analysing volatile compounds to monitor fish freshness. In this study, SPME/GC/MS was applied to cultured gilthead sea bream and precooked prawn stored in ice for 6 days in order to find possible markers of spoilage. Total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB‐N) was also determined as a common index of spoilage. RESULTS: The TVB‐N value at the end of the storage period for cultured gilthead sea bream (302.40 ± 8.50 mg kg^?1) was within the range of acceptability for edible fish (300–400 mg kg^?1) but could be considered at the beginning of spoilage. For precooked prawn the TVB‐N value at day 6 (863.04 ± 7.84 mg kg^?1) was not acceptable for human consumption. SPME/GC/MS identified 30 compounds in cultured gilthead sea bream and 49 compounds in precooked prawn. In particular, 3‐methyl‐1‐butanol, 2‐methylbutanal, 3‐methylbutanal and 3‐hydroxy‐2‐butanone increased during refrigerated storage both in the two species investigated here and in other species reported elsewhere and could be considered as markers of spoilage. CONCLUSION: This study confirmed that SPME/GC/MS can be considered an efficient method suitable for analysing the volatile compounds of both raw fish and fishery products in order to monitor loss of freshness.

Changes in volatile, sensory and microbial profiles during preparation of smoked ewe cheese

BACKGROUND: Oscypek is a special type of Polish smoked ewe cheese with a unique flavour described as slightly sour, piquant, salted and smoked. In this study the volatile, sensory and microbial profiles of Oscypek cheese were analysed during its various preparation stages of curding, scalding, brining and smoking. RESULTS: The smoked ewe cheese was characterised by 54 volatile compounds belonging to nine different chemical groups (free fatty acids, esters, ketones, alcohols, aldehydes, furans/furanones, phenols, sulfur compounds, terpenes). The sensory aroma profile analysis of unsmoked and smoked cheese showed an important correlation with the analysis of volatile compounds. The microbial profile data indicated that in smoked cheese such as Oscypek the levels of selected bacteria diminished after the curding stage as a result of the subsequent scalding, brining and smoking stages. CONCLUSION: From the results it can be concluded that, although the analysed smoked cheese consisted of three groups of compounds, the first derived from biochemical reactions (free fatty acids, esters, ketones, alcohols, aldehydes, sulfur compounds), the second from smoking (furans and furanones, phenols) and the third from milk flavour (terpenes), it is the smoking process that mainly influences its typical flavour.

Identification of key odor volatile compounds in the essential oil of nine peach accessions

BACKGROUND: Volatile compounds, together with sugars and acids, are the main chemical species determining the characteristic aroma and flavor of food. In peach, more than 100 volatiles have been identified. RESULTS: The essential oil of six peach and three nectarine accessions used in Italian breeding programs was obtained by steam distillation, and the volatiles were investigated. A total of 47 known volatiles, two unidentified compounds and nine hydrocarbons were identified, including 12 aldehydes, six alcohols, three acids, three esters, six terpenes, two phenylalanine derivates, two C₁₃ norisoprenoids, one ketone (C₉) and 10 lactones. A wide variation in the number of volatiles and in their concentration was observed among the nine accessions. Twenty‐one compounds presented odor activity values (OAVs) higher than 1 in at least one of the accessions and were therefore putatively considered as key odorants in the peach volatile composition. CONCLUSION: This study reports the identification, quantification and potency, based on the OAVs, of the most important volatile compounds, along with fruit quality characteristics, of nine different peach/nectarine accessions and will help future peach volatile breeding programs for the selection of odor‐rich accessions to be used in the development of new improved cultivars.

Effect of the type of oil on the evolution of volatile compounds of taralli during storage

Baking process leads to a huge quantity of newly formed volatile compounds, which play a major role in developing the flavor of the final product. The aim of this work was to investigate on the evolution of the volatile profile of taralli as a function of both the kind of oil used in the dough and the storage time. The volatile compounds from the taralli were extracted by headspace solid-phase microextraction and analyzed by gas-chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Forty-four volatile compounds were identified in taralli, most of which produced by thermically induced reactions occurring during baking process, such as volatiles deriving from Maillard reaction and/or sugar degradation and lipid oxidation. The results obtained demonstrated the essential role played by the type of oil on the formation and on the release of volatile compounds. The volatile compounds significantly increased during storage and their individual levels were in most cases significantly lower in taralli made with extra virgin olive oil than in those made with refined oils. Finally, the taralli made with extra virgin olive oil, compared with those prepared with other vegetable oils, showed to be more resistant to oxidation, probably due to the presence of natural antioxidants.
