Abstract
Jiuqu hongmei tea (JQHM tea), unique to Zhejiang Province, China, is celebrated for its vibrant, delightful taste and distinctive flavor profile. This research explored the relationship between the tea's characteristic flavor during fermentation and the dynamics of microbial communities. Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) were analyzed using Headspace Solid-Phase Microextraction coupled with Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS) at three key stages: machine kneading (MK, 0.5 h), primary fermentation (F1, 1.5 h), and secondary fermentation (F2, 3 h). Concurrently, microbial communities were characterized through high-throughput sequencing. The study identified 12 significant VOCs and pinpointed 10 core bacterial and 9 core fungal genera. These findings revealed the intricate changes in aroma compounds and microbial populations throughout JQHM tea's fermentation process, highlighting the interplay between key aroma compounds and principal microbial genera. This knowledge provided a crucial theoretical foundation for refining the tea's processing stages and enhancing its flavor quality.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Gastronomy and Food Science is a peer-reviewed journal that explicitly focuses on the interface of food science and gastronomy. Articles focusing only on food science will not be considered. This journal equally encourages both scientists and chefs to publish original scientific papers, review articles and original culinary works. We seek articles with clear evidence of this interaction. From a scientific perspective, this publication aims to become the home for research from the whole community of food science and gastronomy.
IJGFS explores all aspects related to the growing field of the interaction of gastronomy and food science, in areas such as food chemistry, food technology and culinary techniques, food microbiology, genetics, sensory science, neuroscience, psychology, culinary concepts, culinary trends, and gastronomic experience (all the elements that contribute to the appreciation and enjoyment of the meal. Also relevant is research on science-based educational programs in gastronomy, anthropology, gastronomic history and food sociology. All these areas of knowledge are crucial to gastronomy, as they contribute to a better understanding of this broad term and its practical implications for science and society.
