Processing technology plays a crucial role in the formation of tea aroma. The dynamic variations in volatile metabolites across different processing stages of fresh scent green tea (FSGT) were meticulously tracked utilizing advanced analytical techniques such as GC-E-Nose, GC–MS, and GC × GC-TOFMS. A total of 244 volatile metabolites were identified by GC–MS and GC × GC-TOFMS, among which 37 volatile compounds were concurrently detected by both methods. Spreading and fixation stages were deemed as pivotal processes for shaping the volatile profiles in FSGT. Notably, linalool, heptanal, 2-pentylfuran, nonanal, β -myrcene, hexanal, 2-heptanone, pentanal, 1-octen-3-ol, and 1-octanol were highlighted as primary contributors to the aroma profiles of FSGT by combining odor activity value assessment. Furthermore, lipid degradation and glycoside hydrolysis were the main pathways for aroma formation of FSGT. The results not only elucidate the intricate variations in volatile metabolites but also offer valuable insights into enhancing the processing techniques for improved aroma quality of green tea.

The volatiles in coffee play an important part in the overall flavor profile. In this study, GC–TOF/MS and GC×GC–TOF/MS were used to detect the volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in coffee samples of three different brands at three states (bean, powder, and brew). The differences between the two methods in characterizing VOCs were analyzed using the Venn diagram and PCA (principal component analysis). The important aroma-contributing compounds were further compared and analyzed. The results of the venn diagrams of different coffee samples showed that most VOCs existed in 2–3 kinds of coffee. The PCA of VOCs in different coffee samples showed that the VOCs detected by GC–TOF/MS could distinguish the coffee samples in the different states. GC×GC–TOF/MS was suitable for the further identification and differentiation of the different brands of coffee samples. In addition, pyridine, pyrrole, alcohols, and phenols greatly contributed to distinguishing coffee in three states, and alcohols greatly contributed to distinguishing the three brands of coffee.Keywords:coffee;GC×GC–TOF/MS;GC–TOF/MS;volatile organic components

Storage time is one of the important factors affecting the aroma quality of Pu-erh tea. In this study, the dynamic changes of volatile profiles of Pu-erh teas stored for different years were investigated by combining gas chromatography electronic nose (GC-E-Nose), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS), and gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS). GC-E-Nose combined with partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) realized the rapid discrimination of Pu-erh tea with different storage time (R 2 Y = 0.992, Q 2 = 0.968). There were 43 and 91 volatile compounds identified by GC–MS and GC-IMS, respectively. A satisfactory discrimination (R 2 Y = 0.991, and Q 2 = 0.966) was achieved by using PLS-DA based on the volatile fingerprints of GC-IMS. Moreover, according to the multivariate analysis of VIP > 1.2 and univariate analysis of p < 0.05, 9 volatile components such as linalool and (E)-2-hexenal were selected as key variables to distinguish Pu-erh teas with different storage years. The results provide theoretical support for the quality control of Pu-erh tea.

The process of aging was crucial in enhancing the aroma quality of Huangjiu. Gas chromatography electronic nose (GC-E-Nose), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS), and gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) were employed to detect the variations in aroma among five samples aged for varying years (5–11). A comprehensive analysis revealed the presence of 85 compounds in the Shaoxing Huangjiu, twenty of which were identified as crucial contributors to its flavor profile through odor activity values analysis. The volatile aroma components of Huangjiu exhibited notable variations among different aging years. Additionally, the concentration and diversity of key aroma compounds increased with prolonged aging. At the same time, quantitative descriptive sensory analysis showed that aging could enhance the ester and acid aroma of Huangjiu. Moreover, based on variable importance for the projection, seven potential aroma markers such as diethyl succinate, ethyl butyrate, and furfural were screened out, which were the major compounds that caused the flavor differences of aged Huangjiu. The results offer valuable theoretical support for illustrating and regulating the quality of Huangjiu during its aging process.

The fermentation rounds in the brewing process of Qingxiangxing Baijiu (QXB) significantly influence its quality and flavor. This study investigates the flavor characteristics of two rounds of QXB: Dacha-Baijiu and Ercha-Baijiu. Analysis via HS-SPME-GC × GC-TOFMS revealed a higher number of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in Ercha-Baijiu, whereas Dacha-Baijiu exhibited elevated concentrations of alcohols and esters. Orthogonal partial least squares discrimination analyses indicated significant flavor differences between the two rounds. Based on odor activity value (OAV >1) assessment, 51 VOCs were identified as key aroma contributors, with β-damascenone, isovaleraldehyde, ethyl caprylate, and ethyl hexanoate being particularly prominent. Furthermore, 37 volatile compounds were accurately identified using GC-IMS, effectively constructing a fingerprint of the flavor differences between two rounds of QXB. Sensory analysis revealed significant distinctions in both aroma and taste. Dacha-Baijiu exhibited more intense aroma of sweet, floral, and grain, as well as taste of sour and fresh, while Ercha-Baijiu was marked by strong acid, alcoholic, and fruit aroma, as well as sweet, bitter and salty taste. This study elucidates the flavor characteristics of two rounds of QXB, which providing valuable insights for the processing technology and flavor quality control of QXB.

Greengage alcoholic beverage (GAB) is gaining popularity for its distinctive fruity aroma and nutritional benefits. TheSaccharomyces cerevisiaestrain applied for fermentation significantly influences the metabolic production of aroma compounds, making the selection ofS. cerevisiaestrains to be critical for enhancing the unique flavor profile of the GAB in commercial production. In this study, the effects of two common commercialS. cerevisiaestrains (SY, EC-1118) and two laboratory-derived strains (ET008-c54, NM-8) on the flavor profile of the GAB were investigated. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of the GAB samples were analyzed using GC-E-Nose, HS-SPME-GC-MS, and HS-GC-IMS. Results showed significant differences in the flavor compound content of the GAB fermented by different strains. Nine VOCs were identified as potential markers by partial least squares–discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) combined with variable importance in projection (VIP), with ethyl esters playing a key role in distinguishing the aroma characteristics of different groups. Consequently, 13 aromatic compounds were selected and considered to be the typical VOCs of the GAB. Notably, β-ionone and ethyl octanoate emerged as representative aroma compounds, both showing the highest concentrations in the SY sample. These findings will provide valuable insights into the aroma differences of the GAB fermented by different strains and offer theoretical guidance for selecting suitable strains in the industrial production of the GAB.

This study aimed to identify and compare the flavor substances in mature tomato and pepper fruits using flavoromics based on GC×GC-TOF-MS. A total of 1560 volatile substances were identified, including 627 tomato specific substances and 534 pepper specific substances. Esters were identified as the distinguishing factor in the aroma profiles of the two. ROAV, an effective flavor evaluation criterion, can help identify the main contributors to flavor that can be detected by the taste buds. VOCs with ROAV > 1 are typically regarded as the key flavor contributors. Interestingly, it was found that tomato and pepper shared three common VOCs (2-nonenal, (E)-; 2-octenal, (E)-; and furan, 2-pentyl-.), which exhibited higher ROAV in both. Except for the three common VOCs, heptanal; 2-dodecenal, (E)-; 1-octen-3-one; 2-undecanone in tomato and pyrazine, 2-methoxy-3-(2-methylpropyl)- in pepper were identified to be contributive to their corresponding aromatic flavor (ROVA > 1), respectively. The contents of 138 volatile metabolites differ between tomato and pepper. Among them, acetoin, dodecanal and 1-decanol demonstrated highest fold change (Log 2 FC > 10). The flavor wheel shows the most obvious flavor characteristic of both tomato and pepper is sweet flavor. In addition, green, fruity, herbal, woody and apple flavors are prominent in pepper, while waxy, citrus and fatty flavors are prominent in tomato.

Co-processing of bio-oil and petroleum-derived feed in a fluid catalytic cracking process of a refinery is considered to be one of the most potential bio-liquid fuel preparation technologies. The detailed qualitative and quantitative analysis of the oxygenates in the co-cracking products facilitates optimization of the subsequent processing. In this study, an in-depth characterization of trace oxygenates from home-made co-processing liquid products in a fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) pilot plant unit at different bio-oil water-soluble phase (BOWS)/vacuum gas oil (VGO) mass blending ratios (0/100, 10/90, 20/80) at different reaction temperature (500 and 525 °C) was performed with quantitative and qualitative comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC × GC–MS). An internal standard method with the internal standard 1,1,3,3-tetramethoxypropane was used to quantify trace oxygenates, which was selected from the qualitative analysis of the co-processing liquid products. The results showed that the contents of phenols and benzofurans in the liquid products from co-processing were low and the addition of BOWS was beneficial to improve the co-processing conversion, reduce the coke yield, but reduce the gas products and gasoline yield. The deoxygenation of catalytic cracking for oxygenates also weakened with the increase of bio-oil addition. The increase of reaction temperature can strengthen the deoxygenation of catalytic cracking, but the excessively high temperature can strengthen the thermal cracking reaction and reduce the gasoline yield.

Aroma dramatically impacts the overall flavor profiles and consumer acceptance; therefore, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the aroma characteristics of apples. In this study, the aroma differences among four popular apple varieties (“Ruixue”, “Liangzhi”, “Crystal Fuji,” and “Guifei”) were compared using two extraction methods (headspace-solid phase microextraction, and solvent-assisted flavor evaporation) coupled with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry–olfactometry (GC–MS–O) and two-dimensional gas chromatography-quadrupole mass spectrometry (GC × GC-qMS). A total of 82 odorants were identified via GC–MS–O, and 143 volatiles were identified by GC× GC-qMS. Among them, 41 key aroma-active compounds (butanal, ethyl acetate, 3-methylbutanal, methyl butanoate, 2-methylpropyl acetate, ethyl 2-methylbutanoate, ethyl 3-methylbutanoate, butyl acetate, hexanal, 2-methylbutyl acetate, 1-butanol, 2-methylpropyl butanoate, 3-methylbutyl acetate, (E)-2-hexenal, butyl butanoate, butyl 2-methylbutanoate, hexyl acetate, hexyl butanoate, hexyl, 2-methylbutanoate, 1-octen-3-ol, 3-methylthiopropanol, 1,3-octanediol, linalyl acetate, and so on) with high odor activity values (OAVs) and AI value (odor activity values ≥1 or aroma intensity ≥3) were identified. Partial least-squares-discriminant analysis showed that Ruixue exhibited a high “fruity” note, Guifei and Crystal Fuji had the greatest “wood,” “floral,” and “sweet” notes, while Liangzhi presented a significant “green” note. This study provided flavor chemistry support for the apple quality control and production.

This study aimed to explore the changes in volatile compounds in mutton during roasting in an air fryer, using solvent-assisted flavor evaporation-gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (SAFE-GC–MS) and gas chromatography-immersion mass spectrometry (GC-IMS). Significant differences in the volatile compound profiles of different samples were detected using both GC-IMS, an electronic nose and GC–MS analysis. Among them, compounds such as ( E , E )-2,4-decadienal, ( E )-2-heptenal, and octanal showed a gradual increase in concentration throughout the roasting process. This increase was likely attributed to the oxidation of oleic and linoleic acids. Additionally, the levels of glucose, ribose, and free amino acids gradually decreased, as these compounds were consumed during the Maillard reaction, which caused the formation of volatile compounds like 2,5-dimethylpyrazine, methylpyrazine, and 3-ethyl-2,5-dimethylpyrazine. This study provided valuable insights into the use of air fryers as a novel approach for enhancing the flavor of meat products.

Analytical pyrolysis-comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC × GC/MS) was employed for the on-line analysis of cellulose via catalytic pyrolysis with different catalysts and catalytic temperatures to study the products and aromatic hydrocarbons selectivity. The catalysts were subjected to characterization methods, including XRD , TEM , NH 3 -TPD, to investigate the effects of the physicochemical properties of the catalyst on the product distribution. Results showed that the Ce 0.8 Zr 0.2-x Al x O 2 could significantly promote the formation of aromatic hydrocarbons under 400–550 °C. A lower catalytic temperature (≤350 °C) favored the formation of furan compounds, and a higher catalytic temperature (≥450 °C) supported the formation of aromatic hydrocarbons. The relative peak area of the aromatics prepared by using the Ce 0.8 Zr 0.15 Al 0.05 O 2 catalyst was the highest being 85.24% at 550 °C. Moreover, the selectivity of the single-ring aromatics, such as benzene, toluene and xylene, were significantly affected by the presence of the Ce 0.8 Zr 0.2-x Al x O 2 catalysts. The higher total acidity of Ce 0.8 Zr 0.15 Al 0.05 O 2 favored the formation of benzene and toluene. Additionally, the Ce 0.8 Zr 0.15 Al 0.05 O 2 catalyst had a great thermal stability. The catalyst recycling tests showed that the Ce 0.8 Zr 0.15 Al 0.05 O 2 catalyst can be reused five times to produce aromatic-rich bio-oil via catalytic fast pyrolysis .

To understand the overall flavor of the dzo beef, fatty acids, volatile compounds and aroma profiles of dzo beef samples (raw beef (RB), broth (BT) and cooked beef (CB)) were investigated by head-space-gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (HS-GC-IMS) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC–MS). The fatty acid analysis showed a decrease in the ratio of polyunsaturated fatty acids, such as linoleic acid, which decreased from 2.60 % in RB to 0.51 % in CB. The principal component analysis (PCA) showed that HS-GC-IMS was able to distinguish different samples. A total of 19 characteristic compounds with odor activity value (OAV) > 1 were identified by gas chromatography–olfactometry (GC-O). Fruity, caramellic, fatty and fermented attributes were enhanced after stewing. Butyric acid and 4-methylphenol were responsible for the stronger off-odor in RB. 3-Hydroxy-2-butanone and 2,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxy-3(2 H )-furanone with buttery and caramellic attributes were dominated in BT, while ( E )-2-nonenal, ( E , E )-2,4-decadienal and ( E , E )-2,4-nonadienal prominently conferred fatty attribute on CB. Furthermore, anethole with anisic aroma was first identified in beef, which may be one of the typical chemical markers that distinguish dzo beef from other varieties.
