To compare the volatile compounds of Chinese black truffle and white truffle from Yunnan province, this study presents the application of a direct solvent extraction/solvent-assisted flavor evaporation (DSE-SAFE) coupled with a comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC × GC) high resolution time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HR-TOF/MS) and an electronic nose. Both of the analytical methods could distinguish the aroma profile of the two samples. In terms of the overall profile of truffle samples in this research, more kinds of acids were detected via the method of DSE-SAFE. Besides, compounds identified in black truffle (BT), but not in white truffle (WT), orvice versa, and those detected in both samples at different levels were considered to play an important role in differentiating the two samples. According to the analysis of electronic nose, the two samples could be separated, as well.Keywords:GC × GC/HR-TOF/MS;electronic nose;DSE-SAFE;Chinese truffles

Truffle, belonging to Tuber genera, is a nutritious and sterol-rich edible fungus, and sterol is a potential health beneficial compound. A comparison of Tuber sterol composition indicates that the total sterol contents in the fermentation mycelia (i.e., 10.5 mg g −1 ) ( n = 3) were approximately 3.2–5.6 times higher than that of the fruiting bodies ( p < 0.05) with the addition of soybean flour into the basal fermentation media. Moreover, the phytosterol profile of fermentation mycelia could be significantly improved by adding soybean flour into the fermentation media. After the addition of soybean flour, stigmasterol and β-sitosterol appeared in the fermentation mycelia and the contents of total phytosterols (2279 μg g −1 ) ( n = 3), brassicasterol (943 μg g −1 ) ( n = 3), and campesterol (418 μg g −1 ) ( n = 3) were all increased significantly ( p < 0.05). Moreover, the total contents of sterols and phytosterols in the fermentation mycelia cultured in the soybean media were much higher than those in the fruiting bodies (i.e., 1883–3240 and 479–1832 μg g −1 , respectively) ( n = 3, p < 0.05). This work confirms the potentiality of Tuber fermentation mycelia as the alternative resource for its fruiting bodies from the viewpoint of sterols production.

A study was carried out to determine and compare the key aroma compounds in raw and dry porcini mushroom ( Boletus edulis) . The volatile fractions were prepared by solvent-assisted flavor evaporation (SAFE), and aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA) combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS) was employed to identify the odorants. Selected aroma compounds were quantitated and odor activity values (OAVs) were calculated revealing OAVs ≥ 1 for 12 compounds in raw porcini, among which 1-octen-3-one showed the highest OAV. In addition to compounds with eight carbon atoms, 3-methylbutanal, ( E,E )-2,4-decadienal and ( E,E )-2,4-nonadienal were also responsible for the unique aroma profile. In dry mushroom OAVs ≥ 1 were obtained for 20 odorants. Among them, 3-(methylthio)propanal, 1-octen-3-one and pyrazines were determined as predominant odorants. Overall, drying increased complexity of volatile compounds, thus significantly changing the aroma profile of porcini, providing more desirable roasted and seasoning-like flavor and less grass-like and earthy notes.

Melanoma is one of the highly malignant tumors whose incidence and fatality rates have been increased year by year. However, in addition to early surgical resection, there still lacks specific targeted drugs and treatment strategies. In this study, it was discovered that hinokiflavone (HF) encapsulated in zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) exhibited a superior anti-melanoma effect in vitro and in vivo. HF was encapsulated in ZIF-8 through a one-step synthesis method, and polyethylene glycol (PEG-2000) was used to optimize the size and dispersion of the drug-loaded complex (PEG/ZIF-8@HF). The results show that the prepared PEG/ZIF-8@HF has a high encapsulation efficiency (92.12%) and can achieve selective drug release in an acidic microenvironment. The results of in vitro anti-melanoma experiments indicate that PEG/ZIF-8@HF shows up-regulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels and can restrain the migration and invasion of B16F10 cells. Moreover, in vivo animal experiments further confirm that PEG/ZIF-8@HF shows anti-tumor effect by up-regulating the pro-apoptotic proteins caspase-3 and caspase-8, and down-regulating the migration-promoting invasion protein MMP-9. This study developed a safe and effective oral administration of HF based on the high-efficiency delivery ZIF-8 system, which provides an effective treatment strategy for melanoma.

To enhance the aroma complexity and commercial potential of Chinese black truffle (Tuber indicum), enzymatic hydrolyzates (EH) were subjected to Maillard reaction (MR) with xylose/cysteine under varying temperatures (90–130 °C). Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in MR products (MRPs) were characterized using an E-nose, HS-SPME-GC-MS, and HS-GC-IMS coupled with chemometrics (PCA, OPLS-DA). MR significantly increased VOC diversity (216 compounds identified vs 82 in EH), with sulfur-containing compounds and heterocyclics emerging exclusively in MRPs. Temperature critically influenced VOC profiles: 130 °C (MRPs130) yielded the highest VOC abundance and key odorants, as confirmed by the odor activity value (OAV) analysis. Sankey diagrams visualized a flavor shift from mushroom/earthy notes in EH to enhanced fruity, green, and roasted nuances in MRPs130. This strategy effectively improves the Chinese truffle aroma, offering theoretical and practical insights for value-added processing.

Natural deep eutectic solvents (NaDESs) with ultrasound-assisted (UAE) method was used to improve the extraction efficiency of polysaccharide from black truffles, which can overcome the limitations of conventional methods. It demonstrated that the extraction efficiency of polysaccharide by six NaDESs with UAE were better than those of conventional solvents. Among the NaDESs, betaine-citric acid (BetCi) NaDES showed the best performance, achieving a remarkable extraction yield of 9.38%, outperforming water, ethanol, and 1,3-butanediol by 0.4, 11.5 and 11.0 times, respectively. Moreover, the polysaccharide yield was further optimized by response surface method, based on three influence factors (NaDES concentration, liquid-to-solid, and ultrasonic time). Scanning electron microscopy images showed that compared to the traditional extraction methods, the plate-like structure fractured into smaller pieces of black truffles treated by BetCi NaDES with UAE, indicating deeper interactions between NaDES and black truffles. Furthermore, the skin penetration as well as antioxidant and anti-wrinkle properties of the black truffle polysaccharide extract were evaluated, revealing promising bioactivity. Overall, this study represents a comprehensive exploration of novel extraction methods, highlighting efficient polysaccharide extraction and its potential applications.

This study investigated volatile organic compound (VOC) variations across commercial grades (G1, G2, G3) of Chinese black truffles ( Tuber indicum ) using electronic nose ( E -nose), headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (HS-SPM E -GC–MS), and headspace gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (HS-GC-IMS). E-nose analysis revealed significant differences in sulfur-containing and terpenic compounds between grades. HS-SPME-GC–MS identified 95 VOCs, with G1 exhibiting the highest diversity (75 compounds) and unique markers like 2-butanone. Orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) highlighted 86 discriminatory VOCs (VIP > 1). Odor activity value (OAV) analysis showed G1 had the strongest aroma intensity, driven by esters (ethyl isobutyrate, OAV = 6574) and alcohols (1-octen-3-ol, OAV = 3444). Higher-grade truffles (G1) contained distinct sulfur compounds absent in lower grades. This multi-technique approach provides a biochemical basis for refining truffle grading standards beyond morphological criteria.

A polysaccharide from the aqueous extract of Boletus aereus fruit (BAP) was isolated. The antitumor activities of BAP and/or cyclophosphamide (CTX) were investigated using the model of S180 tumor-bearing mice. Results indicated that BAP could effectively inhibit the growth of S180 solid tumors and protect the immune organs. Hematoxylin and eosin staining, Annexin V-FITC/PI staining, and mitochondrial membrane potential analysis demonstrated that BAP could induce the apoptosis of S180 tumor cells. In combination with CTX, BAP exhibited a significant synergistic antitumor effect on S180 cells. Furthermore, a novel polysaccharide, namely, BAPF, was purified from BAP by using DEAE Cellulose-52 column and Sephadex G-100 gel column. Structural characterization revealed that BAPF was primarily composed of mannose, glucuronic acid, glucose, galactose, arabinose, and fucose at a proportion of 12.98:1:16.8:16.48:1.08:9.1. Its average molecular weight was 1.79 × 10 6 Da. FTIR and NMR analyses demonstrated that BAPF was a pyranose with α-type and β-type glycosidic residues.
