Meloidogynespp. are important parasitic nematodes affecting a variety of plants worldwide. We investigated the nematicidal properties of specific compounds found in bio-fumigant plants, particularly linalool, nonanal, methylene chloride, and 2-Decanal. Laboratory findings revealed that methylene chloride and 2-Decenal effectively reduced populations of second-stage juveniles (J2s). Additionally, the research explored the effects of tomato (Solanum lycopersicumL.) onM. incognitaJ2s, observing that tomato leaves significantly increased J2 mortality for all time measurements and different temperatures, while the opposite results were observed for root-stems. In the study, leaf treatment resulted in a maximum mortality response (MRmax) and half-maximal effective concentration (EC50) of approximately 100% and 4.0 µg/mg, respectively, at a temperature of 35 °C by week 8. In contrast, the root-stems treatment showed an MRmaxof 13.5% and an EC50of 3.0 ± 1.7 µg/mg. GC-MS analysis identified key compounds in tomato leaves and root-stems, such as α-pinene, d-limonene, and linalool. The results suggest that tomato leaves have potential as effective bio-fumigants for controlling root-knot nematodes.

Recently, various biosensors based on odorant-binding proteins (OBPs) were developed for the detection of odorants and pheromones. However, important data gaps exist regarding the sensitive and selective detection of aldehydes with various carbon numbers . In this work, an OBP2a-based electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) biosensor was developed by immobilizing OBP2a on a gold interdigital electrode, and was characterized by EIS and atomic force microscopy . EIS responses showed the OBP2a-based biosensor was highly sensitive to citronellal , lily aldehyde, octanal , and decanal (detection limit of 10 −11 mol/L), and was selective towards aldehydes compared with interfering odorants such as small-molecule alcohols and fatty acids (selectivity coefficients lower than 0.15). Moreover, the OBP2a-based biosensor exhibited high repeatability (relative standard deviation: 1.6%–9.1 %, n = 3 for each odorant), stability (NIC declined by 3.6 % on 6th day), and recovery (91.2%–96.6 % on three real samples). More specifically, the sensitivity of the biosensor to aldehydes was positively correlated to the molecular weight and the heterocyclic molecule structure of the odorants. These results proved the availability and the potential usage of the OBP2a-based EIS biosensor for the rapid and sensitive detection of aldehydes in aspects such as medical diagnostics, food and favor analysis, and environmental monitoring.

Further assessment of ultraviolet C light-emitting diode (UVC-LED) irradiation for influencing shiitake mushrooms’ (Lentinus edodes) volatile and sensory properties is needed. In this study, a comparison of UVC-LED irradiation treatment on the flavor profiles in various parts of shiitake mushrooms was conducted using gas chromatography–ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) and sensory analysis. Sixty-three volatile compounds were identified in shiitake mushrooms. The fresh shiitake mushrooms were characterized by the highest values of raw mushroom odors. After UVC-LED treatment, the content of C8 alcohols decreased, especially that of 1-octen-3-ol, while the content of aldehydes increased, especially the content of nonanal and decanal. The score of fatty and green odors was enhanced. For fresh samples, the mushroom odors decreased and the mushroom-like odors weakened more sharply when treated in ethanol suspension than when treated with direct irradiation. The fruit odors were enhanced using direct UVC-LED irradiation for fresh mushroom samples and the onion flavor decreased. As for shiitake mushroom powder in ethanol suspension treated with UVC-LED, the sweaty and almond odor scores decreased and the vitamin D2content in mushroom caps and stems reached 668.79 μg/g (dw) and 399.45 μg/g (dw), respectively. The results obtained from this study demonstrate that UVC-LED treatment produced rich-flavored, quality mushroom products.

There is a huge demand for brewing water in tea consumption, and the sensory flavor of tea infusion is significantly affected by the water used for brewing. To investigate the impact of brewing water on the aroma of tea infusions made from Camelia senensis , the three tea infusions of green, oolong and black tea brewed by six different drinking waters were analyzed by sensory evaluation, solid-phase microextraction, gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, and chemometrics. Brewing water with high pH values (>8.10) and high TDS content (>140 ppm) resulted in a lower overall aroma acceptability for tea infusion, where HCO 3 – , Ca 2+ and Mg 2+ were key influencing ions. A total of 86, 106, and 131 volatiles were identified in green, oolong and black tea infusions, respectively, which were strongly influenced by six different brands of waters. Decanal, dimethyl sulfide, β-ionone and linalool were potent volatiles in tea aroma changes caused by brewing water.

Thermal pasteurization decreases the sensory quality of mandarin juice. Flavor composition was determined in four fresh-squeezed and heat-processed mandarin juice varieties using molecular sensory science approaches. The relationships between odorants and sensory profiles were analyzed, and markers for flavor deterioration were screened by multivariate statistical analysis. Seventy-four volatiles were identified, among which 36 odorants with flavor dilution factors ranging from 2 to 128 were detected by multidimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry/olfactometry (MDGC-MS/O) coupled with aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA). Higher intensities of cooked and off-flavor notes were observed in the heated mandarin juice, which was related to the concentration changes of the methional, methanethiol, dimethyl sulfide, and carbon disulfide by partial least squares (PLS) analysis. Ten potential markers (methional, methanethiol, dimethyl sulfide, hydrogen sulfide, β -damascenone, camphene, trans - β -ionone, decanal, d -limonene, and α -pinene) were responsible for the sensory discrimination of fresh-squeezed and heated mandarin juices.

To explore the effects of different withering methods on the quality of Congou black tea, this study focused on five different withering methods: natural withering, warm-air withering, sun–natural combined withering, sun withering, and shaking withering. Gas chromatography‒mass spectrometry (GC‒MS), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), and ion-exchange chromatography techniques were used to analyze the nonvolatile and volatile components and composition of the tea. The results revealed significant differences (p< 0.05) in the contents of nonvolatile constituents including caffeine, polyphenols, soluble sugars, free amino acids and their components, theaflavins, thearubigins, and catechins among the five different withering methods, with varying degrees of correlation between these components. A total of 227 aroma compounds were detected, and significant differences in the contents of alcohols, aldehydes, and ketones were observed. A relative odor activity value (ROVA) analysis of the aroma compounds revealed that 19 compounds had an ROVA > 1. Among them, benzylaldehyde, trans-2-decenal, decanal, benzaldehyde, nonanal, hexanal, trans-linalool, and geraniol from the shaking withering method had significantly higher ROVA values than those from the other withering methods, which may be the reason for the prominent floral and fruity aroma of shaking withering. This study revealed the impact of different withering methods on the quality of Congou black tea, providing a scientific basis for the development of Congou black tea with different flavors and the improvement of Congou black tea processing techniques.

To explore the influence of tea trichomes on the quality of white tea, liquid chromatography quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LC-Q-TOF-MS), and headspace solid phase microextraction gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC–MS) were used to identify non-volatile and volatile compounds white tea without trichomes (WTwt) and pure trichomes (PT). It was found that the bitter and astringent compounds, caffeine (CAF), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), epicatechin gallate (ECG) and flavonol glycosides, were mainly enriched in the WTwt, with 16.3-fold, 47.1-fold and 28.7-fold decrease in CAF and EGCG and ECG, respectively, and the content of these compounds in PT were lower than the taste thresholds. In PT, kaempferol-3- O -( p -coumaroyl)-glucoside and kaempferol-3- O -(di- p -coumaroyl)-glucoside were non-volatile marker compounds, and decanal was significant aroma contributor with rOAV = 250.86. Moreover, the compounds in trichomes mainly contributed to the fruity and floral aroma of white tea, among which benzyl alcohol, (E) -geranylacetone, decanal, dodecanal and 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one were the crucial aroma components, which were 2.1, 1.7, 1.8, 1.4 and 2.2 times as much as the WTwt in the PT, respectively. In conclusion, trichomes can improve the quality of white tea by reducing the bitterness and astringency, increasing the umami, as well as enhancing the fruity and floral aromas.

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by deficits in social interaction and repetitive, stereotyped behaviors. There is no universally effective pharmacological treatment targeting its core symptoms. Oxytocin, an endogenous polypeptide known as the “social hormone”, has shown potential in improving emotional recognition and social interactions in individuals with ASD. However, its clinical application has been limited due to its short half-life and poor blood–brain barrier penetration. To address these challenges, we utilized peptide lipidation technology to enhance the pharmacokinetic properties and brain bioavailability of oxytocin. A series of lipidated oxytocin analogs was designed and synthesized, exhibiting superior brain distribution and pharmacokinetic profiles in valproic acid-induced autistic rat models compared to unmodified oxytocin. Among these analogs, C16-modified oxytocin (C16-OT), administered intrathecally, achieved the most extensive brain distribution with limited presence in the blood, resulting in long-lasting improvements in autistic behaviors. These improvements, including enhanced social behaviors and reduced stereotypical actions, were sustained for up to 42 days, contrasting with the brief effects typically reported in previous studies. Furthermore, a comparison of administration routes revealed that intrathecal injection achieved higher brain concentrations and more prolonged social behavioral improvements than intranasal delivery. These findings provide robust preclinical evidence that C16-OT, through optimized lipidation and intrathecal delivery, offers sustained central nervous system activity and significant, long-term reversal of social behavioral deficits in rats with autism.

This study analyzed the changes in key aroma compounds in grass carp fillets during cold storage using aroma extract dilution analysis, odor activity values, and aroma recombination. A total of 11, 13, and 14 volatile compounds were recombined to construct recombination models representing the odor of fillets at 0, 3, and 7 days of cold storage, respectively. The key aroma compounds in fresh fillets included hexanal, (Z)-4-heptenal, nonanal, (E,E)-2,4-octadienal, (E,Z)-2,6-nonadienal, (E)-2-nonenal, decanal, (E)-2-decenal, (E,E)-2,4-decadienal, 1-octen-3-ol, and 2,3-pentanedione. Moreover, (E)-2-octenal, 2-cyclopenten-1-one, γ-dodecalactone, and octanoic acid became the key aroma compounds after 3 and 7 days of refrigeration, respectively. (Z)-4-Heptenal, (E,Z)-2,6-nonadienal, (E)-2-nonenal, decanal, and (E,E)-2,4-decadienal indicated the deterioration in flavor quality of fillets, which rose by 38.29 μg/kg (0–7 days). This study clarifies the key aroma compounds and characteristic compounds responsible for odor changes during the cold storage of fillets, establishing a basis for future improvement in odor quality during cold storage.

To deepen the understanding of peach aroma, we investigated the changes of volatile organic compound (VOC) profiles during fruit development in three fresh peach cultivars: ‘Jiucui (JC)’, ‘Zhongyoupan No. 9 (ZYP9)’ and ‘Zhongyou No. 8 (ZY8)’. The classes and contents of VOCs changed significantly during fruit ripening. The representative VOC changes were categorized into three developmental stages, with the lowest volatile content observed during the middle stage. At maturity, ester-related volatiles increased significantly, dominating the VOC profiles and accounting for 78 %, 82 % and 88 % in JC, ZYP9 and ZY8, respectively, while alcohols decreased dramatically. Multivariate analysis identified 23, 21 and 20 potential volatile markers in JC, ZYP9 and ZY8, respectively, with 9 shared markers distinguishing the different developmental stages. Odor activity values (OAVs) and olfactometry analysis highlighted 36, 29, and 26 aroma-active compounds (OAV > 1) across the cultivars, with key contributors to the mature peach aroma including hexyl acetate (OAV 860–2896), ( E )-2-hexenyl acetate, ( Z )-3-hexenyl acetate, ( E )-3-hexenyl acetate, linalool, and γ -decalactone. The fruity aroma intensified as ripening progressed, with ZY8, a cultivar with a longer maturation cycle, exhibiting the highest odor intensity. This study offers insights into the dynamic changes in VOC profiles during peach development, highlighting key aroma-active compounds and their stage-specific variations.

Lipids are vital precursors to beef aroma compounds, but the exact lipid molecules influencing aroma generation remain unconfirmed. This study employs gas chromatography–olfactometry–mass spectrometry and absolute quantitative lipidomics to identify beef's aroma and lipid profiles and to examine lipid alterations post-thermal processing. The aim is to understand the role of lipids in aroma generation during beef's raw-to-cooked transition. Eighteen key aroma compounds were identified as significant contributors to the aroma of beef. 265 lipid molecules were quantified accurately, and we found that triglycerides containing C18:1 or C18:2 chains, such as TG(16:0_18:1_18:1), TG(16:0_18:1_18:2), TG(16:0_16:1_18:1), as well as phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine containing PC(16:1e_20:4), PC(16:0e_20:4), PC(18:2e_18:2), and PE(16:1e_20:4), played important roles in the generation of key aroma compounds in beef. C18:1, C18:2, C18:3, and C20:4 were key substrates for the formation of aroma compounds. In addition, lysophosphatidylcholine and lysophosphatidylethanolamine containing unsaturated fatty acid chains may serve as important aroma retainers.
