Benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) that has been found in barbecued meat products and has shown carcinogenic properties in humans. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of vinegar (fermented vinegars and distilled vinegar) on the generation of BaP in barbecued pork sausages. The results showed that fermented vinegars and distilled vinegar could significantly ( P < 0.05) inhibit the formation of BaP (26.8%–82.3%) in barbecued pork sausages. Furthermore, fermented vinegar could enhance the sensory evaluation of barbecued pork sausages(tenderness, flavor, juiciness and overall acceptability). Additionally, an intermediate of the Maillard reaction (hydroxymethylfurfural) (0.14–2.34 mg/kg), which is possibly associated with BaP generation, was inhibited because of the decrease in pH. The fermented vinegars, which were rich in phenols (1787.09–3089.60 mg GRE/L) and flavonoid (622.54–2167.97 mg RE/L) compounds, inhibited the formation of BaP by scavenging reactive oxide species (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazine (DPPH) radical (85.50–96.73%) and hydroxy free radical (34.56–66.30%) scavenging activities) in pork sausages. Therefore, the vinegars inhibited the content of BaP in barbecued pork sausages by decreasing the pH and scavenging free radicals. In addition, ten phenolic compounds in sun vinegar were confirmed to be critical in inhibiting the content of BaP in barbecued pork sausages. This study provides a more affordable and feasible strategy for the inhibition of BaP in meat processing.

To add garlic more conveniently, the substitute–garlic essential oil (GEO) is wildly applied in meat product for flavor improvement. However, the effects of GEO on chemical hazard formation, such as benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), in meat processing have not been studied. This study focused on the inhibitory effect of garlic (0.05–0.15%, w/w), GEO (0.002–0.006%, w/w) and the active sulfide compounds (0.006%, w/w) on the formation of BaP in charcoal-grilled pork sausages. The 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging activity of the garlic, GEO and sulfide compounds was also determined. The results showed that the garlic was efficient in the decrease of DPPH free radicals (14.91–23.39%) and BaP content (37.2–62.3%). GEO was also efficient in scavenging DPPH free radicals (14.17–26.20%) and reducing BaP formation (29.1–57.1%). Gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC–MS) analysis identified a total of 41 compounds, of which six major sulfide compounds (allyl methyl sulfide, diallyl sulfide, allyl methyl disulfide, diallyl disulfide, allyl methyl trisulfide and diallyl trisulfide) were screened to assess their inhibition of BaP generation. The BaP inhibition of these sulfide compounds were dependent on the number of sulfur (-S-) and thioallyl group (–S–CH 2 –CH═CH 2 ); and allyl methyl trisulfide (AMTS) showed the highest BaP inhibition (63.3%). A significant correlation was found between their BaP inhibition and DPPH scavenging activity (Spearman correlation = 0.91, P < 0.001), which indicates that the mechanism of sulfides influencing BaP formation in grilling sausage is related to free radical reaction. Our research gives an insight into the theoretical basis about application of GEO to inhibit BaP during food processing and supports use of GEO as a natural additive in meat products.

Fermented soybeans are popular among many for their rich soy sauce-like aroma. However, the precise composition of this aroma remains elusive, with key aroma compounds unidentified. In this study, we screened the candidate genesilvAandserAin BJ3-2 based on previous multi-omics data, and we constructed three mutant strains, BJ3-2-ΔserA, BJ3-2-ΔilvA, and BJ3-2-ΔserAΔilvA, using homologous recombination to fermented soybeans with varying intensities of soy sauce-like aroma. Our objective was to analyze samples that exhibited different aroma intensities resulting from the fermented soybeans of BJ3-2 and its mutant strains, thereby exploring the key flavor compounds influencing soy sauce-like aroma as well analyzing the effects ofilvAandserAon soy sauce-like aroma. We employed quantitative descriptive sensory analysis (QDA), gas chromatography–olfactometry–mass spectrometry (GC-O-MS), relative odor activity value analysis (rOAV), principal component analysis (PCA), orthogonal partial least squares-discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA), and partial least squares regression analysis (PLSR). QDA revealed the predominant soy sauce-like aroma profile of roasted and smoky aromas. GC-MS detected 99 volatile components, predominantly pyrazines and ketones, across the four samples, each showing varying concentrations. Based on rOAV (>1) and GC-O, 12 compounds emerged as primary contributors to soy sauce-like aroma. PCA and OPLS-DA were instrumental in discerning aroma differences among the samples, identifying five compounds with VIP > 1 as key marker compounds influencing soy sauce-like aroma intensity levels. Differential analyses of key aroma compounds indicated that the mutant strains ofilvAandserAaffected soy sauce-like aroma mainly by affecting pyrazines. PLSR analysis indicated that roasted and smoky aromas were the two most important sensory attributes of soy sauce-like aroma, with pyrazines associated with roasted aroma and guaiacol associated with smoky aroma. In addition, substances positively correlated with the intensity of soy sauce-like aroma were verified by additional experiments. This study enhances our understanding of the characteristic flavor compounds in soy sauce-like aroma ferments, provides new perspectives for analyzing the molecular mechanisms of soy sauce-like aroma formation, and provides a theoretical framework for the targeted enhancement of soy sauce-like aroma in various foods.

Processing is an indispensable technology in the preparation of Spirulina platensis ( S. platensis ). The key odorants in liquids, muds, and powders from S. platensis (NM and GZ) were characterized. A total of 90 odorants were identified and 41 odorants were sniffed with the flavor dilution (FD) factors ranging from 1 to 729. Among them, nonanal, decanal, d -limonene, β -cyclocitral, and β -ionone with FD factors ≥1 were detected in S. platensis during the whole processing stages. In addition, heptanal, ( E , E )-2,4-nonadienal, trans -4,5-epoxy-( E )-2-decenal, 1-hepten-3-one, isophorone, 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine, and α -ionone exhibited higher odor activity values in powders; β -myrcene, methional, and S -methyl methanethiosulphonate were key odorants in muds; while trans -3-penten-2-ol was key odorant in liquids. Besides, the GZ-mud presented stronger earthy and fishy odor than NM - mud. S. platensis powders have the stronger grassy odor, roasted odor, and marine odor than S. platensis muds. Overall, drying process promotes the formation of aldehydes, heterocyclic compounds, and terpenoids.
