sorption of flavor compounds to inner layer of polymer packages and subsequent diffusion results in loss of food flavor and consequently decreases shelf life and consumer acceptance of food stuffs which in turn causes major economic losses, so it is of utmost importance to research on diffusivity of these compounds in polymers to minimize negative effects of this phenomenon. in current research...

The aroma attributes of sulfurous, mushroom and earthy are the most important characteristics of the aroma of Tuber melanosporum. However, these three aroma attributes are absent in the T. melanosporum fermentation system. To improve the quality of the aroma, repeated freeze-thaw treatment (RFTT) was adopted to affect the interplay of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Using RFTT, not only was ...

15 16 The impact of the non-volatile wine matrix composition on the retronasal aroma 17 released during the consumption of wine has been evaluated. For this purpose, a tailored 18 made retronasal aroma trapping device (RATD) was used to entrap the exhaled breath 19 of six panelists previously trained in a specific consumption procedure. Five 20 compositional different wines (white wine, sparkli...

We investigated inheritance and carried out gene fine mapping of aroma in crosses between the aromatic elite hybrid rice Oryza sativa indica variety Chuanxiang-29B (Ch-29B) and the non-aromatic rice O. sativa indica variety R2 and O. sativa japonica Lemont (Le). The F1 grains and leaves were non-aromatic while the F2 non-aroma to aroma segregation pattern was 3:1. The F3 segregation ratio was c...

Green tea ('Sencha'), made from the leaves of Camellia sinensis, is the most well-researched antioxidant beverage. The major source of its antioxidant activity is polyphenols, consisting mainly of catechins (flavan-3-ols). However, little is known about the physiological effects of green tea aroma, which lacks catechins. In the present study, we performed inhalation experiments with green tea a...

Wine aroma strongly influences wine quality, yet its composition and its evolution during the winemaking process are poorly understood. Volatile compounds that constitute wine aroma are traditionally divided into three classes according to their origin: grape, fermentation, and maturation aroma. We challenge this view with meta-analysis and review of grape and wine volatiles and their precursor...

This study investigated for the first time the molecular effectiveness of 'aroma' from three small molecules including a phenol (phenyl ethyl alcohol; PEA) and an aldehyde (cinnamaldehyde; Cin) both containing an aromatic ring, and a diamine (N,N,N,N'- Tetramethylethylenediamine; TEMED) at two different amounts (small; S and large; L) in preventing hen egg white lysozyme (HEWL) amyloid fibril f...

In this study, the flavor substances of soypaste were extracted by a simultaneous distillation method and identified by GC-MS. The characteristic aroma components of soypaste were determined by the GC-O technique and the FD value of the characteristic aroma components was determined by AEDA method. It could be inferred that the aroma of the soypaste should be attributed to the presence of heter...

Research has previously demonstrated that aromas of both Salvia officinalis and Salvia lavandulaefolia are capable of modulating aspects of retrospective memory, attention and mood. This study is the first to report the potential for these aromas to enhance everyday prospective memory performance in healthy young adults. In an independent groups design, three conditions, Salvia officinalis arom...

Aroma recovery as determined by solid phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SPME-GC-MS) was compared in coffees resulting from conventional grinding processes, and from wet grinding with cold and hot water. Freshly roasted coffee as well as old, completely degassed coffee was ground in order to estimate the relationship of internal carbon dioxide pressure in freshly roaste...
