Abstract

Introduction: The 'Fengtangli' plum (Prunus salicina Lindl.) is favoured by consumers for its characteristic flavor. The purpose of this study was to explore the characteristics of volatile flavor compounds in 'Fengtangli' plum.

Methods: The flavor compounds of both 'Fengtangli' and 'Siyueli' plums were analyzed using comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC-TOF MS).

Results: The results revealed the presence of 495 volatile flavor compounds in 'Fengtangli' plum and 466 in 'Siyueli' plum. The relative concentrations of hydrocarbons, alcohols, ketones, and esters in 'Fengtangli' plum were significantly elevated compared to those detected in 'Siyueli' plum. Moreover, the sensorial attributes of sweetness, citrus, herbal, floral, and fruity notes were more prominent in 'Fengtangli' plum relative to those of 'Siyueli' plum. Through the integration of differential metabolite analysis and relative odor activity assessment, it is hypothesized that furan-2-pentyl; (E)-2-octenal; and 1-octen-3-one may represent the characteristic of volatile flavor compounds in 'Fengtangli' plum.

Discussion: The research results may provide a theoretical reference for the development and application of 'Fengtangli' plum and the study of the synthesis mechanism of characteristic flavor compounds.

期刊介绍： No subject pertains more to human life than nutrition. The aim of Frontiers in Nutrition is to integrate major scientific disciplines in this vast field in order to address the most relevant and pertinent questions and developments. Our ambition is to create an integrated podium based on original research, clinical trials, and contemporary reviews to build a reputable knowledge forum in the domains of human health, dietary behaviors, agronomy & 21st century food science. Through the recognized open-access Frontiers platform we welcome manuscripts to our dedicated sections relating to different areas in the field of nutrition with a focus on human health. Specialty sections in Frontiers in Nutrition include, for example, Clinical Nutrition, Nutrition & Sustainable Diets, Nutrition and Food Science Technology, Nutrition Methodology, Sport & Exercise Nutrition, Food Chemistry, and Nutritional Immunology. Based on the publication of rigorous scientific research, we thrive to achieve a visible impact on the global nutrition agenda addressing the grand challenges of our time, including obesity, malnutrition, hunger, food waste, sustainability and consumer health.
