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.

The cooking process exerts a notable influence on the flavor characteristics of fish. E-nose, GC-MS, and GC-IMS technologies were utilized to investigate how three thermal processing methods (steaming, frying, and roasting) alter the volatile odors of paddy field carp (PFC). GC-MS and GC-IMS analyses indicated that the volatile compound compositions of steaming and raw samples were relatively similar. Unique compounds such as hexanal, nonanal, and 2, 3-octanedione endowed paddy field carp with grassy, fatty, and fishy odors. Roasting significantly increased both the variety and content of volatile compounds. The content of pyrazines increased significantly after frying. E-tongue showed a substantial increase in umami taste after cooking, with roasting having the highest equivalent umami concentration at 29.95 mg/100 g. Sensory evaluations revealed that frying scored the highest overall (78.08) and was most favored. This study offered insights for further processing, flavor enhancement, and quality improvement of PFC.

A novel method of microwave-assisted deep eutectic solvent extraction coupled with solid-phase microextraction was developed to determine the volatile compounds in tobacco by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. During the process, the deep eutectic solvent played the roles of absorbing medium for microwave radiation, destroyer of cell walls, and solvent for dissolving the compounds released from the cells. Combined with solid-phase microextraction, the volatile components were extracted and concentrated in one step. In this method, several experimental parameters, such as fibre type, deep eutectic solvent type, microwave power, set-up temperature and irradiation time were studied. Compared with microwave-assisted water extraction coupled with solid-phase microextraction, and conventional solid-phase microextraction, more volatile components were obtained with higher responses. It was demonstrated that this method has improved extraction efficiency. Moreover, the proposed method has been applied to analyzing tobacco volatiles from different regions and nine different types of components have been detected. The results indicate that microwave-assisted deep eutectic solvent extraction coupled with solid-phase microextraction is an efficient, environmentally-friendly and fast miniaturization pretreatment technology for the extraction of volatiles from tobacco samples. This is a potentially promising technique for other complex and valuable matrices with low volatile content.

Cordyceps militaris ( C. militaris ) has been approved and widely used in healthy food. The present study aimed to improve the flavor of summer Keemun black tea (KBT) using C. militaris solid-state fermentation. Combined with sensory evaluation, the volatile and non-volatile components of solid-state fermentation of KBT (SSF-KBT) and KBT were analyzed. The results showed that after the solid-state fermentation, the contents of total polyphenol, total flavonoid, and total free amino acids were significantly reduced. Further non-targeted metabolomics analysis revealed that the contents of non-galloylated catechins and d -mannitol increased, while the galloylated catechins and flavonoid glycosides decreased as did the bitterness and astringency of KBT. Dihydro- β -ionone and β -ionone (OAV = 59321.97 and 8154.17) were the aroma-active compounds imparting woody and floral odors in SSF-KBT, respectively. Current study provides a new avenue to develop summer-autumn KBT.

The focus of this study was to compare the yolk flavor of eggs from laying hens of Chinese indigenous and commercial, based on detection of volatile compounds, fatty acids, and texture characteristics determination, using sensory evaluation, artificial sensors (electronic nose (E-nose), electronic tongue (E-tongue)), and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A total of 405 laying hens (Hy-Line Brown (n= 135), Xueyu White (n= 135), and Xinyang Blue (n= 135)) were used for the study, and 540 eggs (180 per breed) were collected within 48 h of being laid and used for sensory evaluation and the instrument detection of yolk flavor. Our research findings demonstrated significant breed differences for sensory attributes of egg yolk, based on sensory evaluation and instrument detection. The milky flavor, moisture, and compactness scores (p< 0.05) of egg yolk from Xueyu White and Xinyang Blue were significantly higher than that of Hy-Line Brown. The aroma preference scores of Xinyang Blue (p< 0.05) were significantly higher, compared to Hy-Line Brown and Xueyu White. The sensor responses of WIW and W2W from E-nose and STS from E-tongue analysis were significantly higher foe egg yolks of Hy-Line Brown (p< 0.05), compared to that of Xueyu White and Xinyang Blue. Additionally, the sensor responses of umami from E-tongue analysis, was significantly higher for egg yolks of Xueyu White (p< 0.05), compared to that of Hy-Line Brown and Xinyang Blue. Besides, the contents of alcohol and fatty acids, such as palmitic acid, oleic acid, and arachidonic acid, in egg yolk were positively correlated with egg flavor. The texture analyzer showed that springiness, gumminess, and hardness of Hy-Line Brown and Xueyu White (p< 0.05) were significantly higher, compared to Xinyang Blue. The above findings demonstrate that the egg yolk from Chinese indigenous strain had better milky flavor, moisture, and compactness, as well as better texture. The egg yolk flavors were mainly due to presence of alcohol and fatty acids, such as palmitic acid, oleic acid, and arachidonic acid, which would provide research direction on improvement in egg yolk flavor by nutrition. The current findings validate the strong correlation between the results of egg yolk flavor and texture, based on sensory evaluation, artificial sensors, and GC-MS. All these indicators would be beneficial for increased preference for egg yolk flavor by consumers and utilization by food processing industry, as well as a basis for the discrimination of eggs from different breeds of laying hens.Keywords:egg flavor;sensory evaluation;electronic nose;electronic tongue;laying hens

Infections caused byCandida albicans(C. albicans) and increasing resistance to commonly used drugs lead to a variety of mucosal diseases and systemic infectious diseases. We previously confirmed that the essential oil ofClausena lansium(Lour.) Skeels seeds (CSEO) had antifungal activity againstC. albicans, but the detailed mechanism between the chemical components and antifungal activity is unclear. In this study, a quantitative analysis of five volatile components of CSEO, including sabinene,α-phellandrene,β-phellandrene, 4-terpineol, andβ-caryophyllene, was carried out using the gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) method. Both the broth dilution and kinetic growth methods proved that the antifungal activity of CSEO against fluconazole-resistantC. albicanswas better than that of its main components (sabinene and 4-terpineol). To further investigate the inhibitory mechanism, the transcriptional responses ofC. albicansto CSEO, sabinene, and 4-terpineol treatment were determined based on RNA-seq. The Venn diagram and clustering analysis pattern of differential expression genes showed the mechanism of CSEO and 4-terpineol’s anti-C. albicansactivity might be similar from the perspective of the genes. Functional enrichment analysis suggested that CSEO regulated adherence-, hyphae-, and biofilm-formation-related genes, which may be CSEO’s active mechanism of inhibiting the growth of fluconazole-resistantC. albicans. Overall, we preliminarily revealed the molecular mechanism between the chemical components and the antifungal activity of CSEO againstC. albicans.This study provides new insights to overcome the azole resistance ofC. albicansand promote the development and application ofC. lansium(Lour.) Skeels seeds.Keywords:Clausena lansium(Lour.) Skeels seeds;essential oil;Candida albicans;drug resistance;gas chromatography–mass spectrometry;transcriptomics analysis

Food authenticity regarding different varieties and geographical origins is increasingly becoming a concern for consumers. In this study, headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (HS-GC–MS) and fast gas chromatography electronic nose (fast GC e-nose) were used to successfully distinguish the varieties and geographical origins of dried gingers from seven major production areas in China. By chemometric analysis, a distinct separation between the two varieties of ginger was achieved based on HS-GC–MS. Furthermore, flavor information extracted by fast GC e-nose realized the discrimination of geographical origins, and some potential flavor components were selected as important factors for origin certification. Moreover, several pattern recognition algorithms were compared in varietal and regional identification, and random forest (RF) led to the highest accuracies for discrimination. Overall, a rapid and precise method combining multivariate chemometrics and algorithms was developed to determine varieties and geographical origins of ginger, and it could also be applied to other agricultural products.

The determination of monosaccharides is crucial for studying the structure of polysaccharides and the composition of free monosaccharides in living organisms. Based on previous derivatization gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) methods, we aimed to develop a novel analytical protocol for better quantifying monosaccharides. In this study, sugar alcohol acetylation, saccharonitrile acetylation, silylation and a combination of sugar alcohols acetylation and saccharonitrile acetylation were compared. The optimal method was verified with the monosaccharide determination of four polysaccharides and four free monosaccharides from Dendrobium . The results showed that the novel combined derivatization method was superior to the other three methods in terms of content analysis of monosaccharides. Furthermore, it possessed good linearity (all calibration curves showed relative coefficients ≥ 0.999), sensitivity, precision (relative standard deviation < 2%), and accuracy (recovery, 95.7–105%). Finally, the novel method established in this study was successfully employed in determining the monosaccharide composition of four polysaccharides and four free monosaccharide samples from Dendrobium .

Furan, which has been identified as possibly carcinogenic for humans, can be induced to different food items by thermal treatment. In accordance with the previous studies and risks associated with prevalence of furan in food, it is necessary to be acknowledged of amounts of furan formed in different thermally processed foods for human awareness. In this study, Headspace Solid-Phase Microextraction Gas Chromatography–Mass Spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC/MS) was optimized for simultaneous determination of furan, furfural, 2-methylfuran and 2-pentylfuran for the first time from different dried fruits and roasted nuts. The method was proved to be valid for determination of all analytes at 50 °C for 25 min, stirring at 700 rpm and 20% NaCl (W/V) using 50/30 μm divinlybenzene/carboxen/polysimethylsiloxane (DVB/CAR/PDMS) fibre. All analytes were baseline-separated at HP 5-MS column in less than 13 min and obtained results have shown prevalence of furan, furfural and 2-pentylfuran in the studied matrices; however, 2-pentylfuran was more prevalent in the roasted nuts than dried fruits and 2-methylfuran has not shown considerable prevalence in both matrices. Moreover, this method was validated in terms of linearity, precision, recovery, specificity, limit of detection and limit of quantification depending on analytes and sample matrices. Hence, the present method was proved to be highly sensitive, specific and robust with good precision and accuracy and suitable for monitoring these furan derivatives in the studied matrices.

In the past decade, natural deep eutectic solvents (NADESs) as green and sustainable extraction solvents with great potential for the efficient extraction of bioactive compounds from the plants are emerging. In this study, a microwave-assisted technology is used to prepare natural deep eutectic solvents. And natural deep eutectic solvents as pretreatment solvents coupled with microwave-assisted hydrodistillation (MAHD) for isolating essential oil (EO) derived from turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) is investigated. To improve the essential oil yield of turmeric (Curcuma longa L.) as a target, various factors affecting extraction efficiency including the type and amount of natural deep eutectic solvents, pretreatment time, pretreatment temperature and hydrodistillation (HD) time are discussed and optimized through central composite design (CCD) of the response surface methodology (RSM). The optimal conditions are as follows: natural deep eutectic solvent composed of choline chloride and oxalic acid (molar ratio with 1:1) as a pretreatment solvent, an amount of 60 g, a pretreatment time of 5 min, a pretreatment temperature of 84 ºC, a hydrodistillation time of 76 min. Under the optimum conditions, the highest essential oil yield of 0.85% is achieved. Additionally, the essential oil is analyzed by using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), with a total of 49 compounds being identified. Through combining natural deep eutectic solvents with a microwave-assisted hydrodistillation technique, this work provides an eco-friendly extraction way of isolating essential oil, which boosts development in the monitoring other spice quality field.

A reliable, simple and fast method was developed to detect four phthalic acid esters (PAEs) including dimethyl phthalate (DMP), diethyl phthalate (DEP), dibutyl phthalate (DBP) and diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) in mine tailings based on the accelerated solvent extraction (ASE) combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (ASE/GC–MS). Evaluation of extraction parameters including choice of extraction solvent, temperature, extraction time, and number of extraction cycles showed that dichloromethane, 120 °C, 3 min, and 2 cycles were optimal, respectively. Under these conditions, the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) values were in the range of 1.2–2.0 µg kg –1 and 3.0–4.6 µg kg –1 , respectively, and precision of the analytical data, RSD ≤ 7.0% were determined. This method was used to analyze the PAEs-spiked mine tailing samples (100 µg kg –1 of each analyte). Acceptable recovery values of 71.3–77.1%, 100–110%, 105–116%, and 101–115% were obtained for DMP, DEP, DBP and DEHP, respectively. The technique was also successfully applied for the extraction of the PAEs in real samples collected from mine tailing pond. Finally, stable C and H isotope analyses were conducted using GC coupled to isotope ratio MS to investigate effect of the ASE method on H and C isotopic compositions of the target analytes. Results showed that the ASE procedure did not lead to significant isotope fractionation of the compounds. Overall, the major advantages of this method are: automated operation, high sensitivity, short extraction time, less solvent consumption, and compatibility with a variety of detecting equipment. Combined with CSIA, it could be used to study the degradation mechanisms of target PAEs in mine tailing environments.

The present study aims to improve the yields and selectivity of aromatic hydrocarbons in the catalytic pyrolysis of biomass by the addition of low-density polyethylene (LDPE), which has a higher hydrogen-carbon ratio than biomass. We have investigated the thermal decomposition behavior and kinetics, as well as the product distribution, of the co-pyrolysis of biomass (cellulose and pine sawdust) and plastic (LDPE) both with and without a catalyst (HZSM-5) using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and analytical pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS). Our results, based on the weight loss difference (△ W ), show that there is a positive and synergistic interaction between the biomass and LDPE. After the addition of LDPE, the synergistic reactions inhibited catalyst coking effectively and decreased the formation of solid residues. In addition, the ZSM-5 catalyst improved the reaction activity and reduced the activation energy, although the reaction mechanism is not changed. At the same time, the Flynn-Wall-Ozawa (FWO) method was used to fit the kinetic data for both non-catalytic and catalytic co-pyrolysis of biomass and LDPE, and the activation energies ( E a ) of the cellulose + LDPE + catalyst and pine + LDPE + catalyst systems were found to be 168.81 and 185.87 kJ/mol, respectively. The co-pyrolysis of biomass and LDPE effectively improved the yield and selectivity of aromatics and increased the selectivity for benzene, toluene, xylene, and ethylbenzene (BTXE). The addition of LDPE can effectively improve the selectivity for naphthalene family products (methylnaphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene) in the catalytic pyrolysis of biomass and decrease the content of aromatic hydrocarbons larger than C10.
