However, alcoholic drink (wines and sakes) contains abundant nutrients, particularly fermentable amino acids derived from grapes and rice. Amino acid nutrition and metabolism is strongly associated with health and prevention against various diseases. The purpose of this study was to elucidate 40 kinds of free amino acid (FAA) profiles in wines and sakes. In addition, the present study also provided the contents of 5-aminolevulinic acid (5-ALA) involved in the vital functionality of mitochondria. FAAs were detected and analyzed by use of an automatic amino acid analyzer. Aromatic amino acid, branched chain amino acid and Fischer ratio were calculated for each beverage. Individual FAAs showed significant differences between wines and sakes. Sakes abundantly contained almost all FAAs whereas wines had just a little content in some FAAs. Sake were rich in arginine, glycine, alanine, valine, glutamic acid and leucine, while wines were remarkably rich in proline (Pro). Wines showed increased FAA levels in 6 kinds of variables (4-hydroxyproline, 3-methyl histidine, <em>β</em>-alanine, <em>α</em>-aminobutyric acid, Pro and <em>α</em>-aminoadipic acid). In functionally characteristic FAAs, both wines and sakes were considerably abundant in <em>γ</em>-aminobutyric acid and 5-ALA. The total amount of aromatic amino acid and branched chain amino acid were markedly higher in sakes than in wines. These results revealed that there were the apparent different characteristics in FAA profiles between wines and sakes. This difference resulted from fermentation process in wines (single fermentation) and sakes (parallel double fermentation). Forty kinds of FAA profiles are more useful in investigating characteristics of the taste of wines and sakes. In future, detailed FAA analysis has the potential to find functional nutrients such as 5-ALA, whereas other foods generally contain little amount of these FAAs.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100784,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Future Foods","volume":"4 4","pages":"Pages 361-368"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772566923000915/pdfft?md5=bf2a1e7277e80915fb245ed01d3a0f03&pid=1-s2.0-S2772566923000915-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138739151","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Upon acquiring the individual taste threshold and evaluating the just noticeable difference (JND), this study firstly established a quantitative method to assess the magnitude of taste interaction in a binary taste mixture by evaluating the concentration difference upon psychologically-comparable stimulation. The change of salty taste intensity (CSI) was therefore defined as the subtraction of JND using sour-salty taste stimulant from JND using pure salty taste stimulant, with a dimension of concentration in mmol/L. CSI was then used to demonstrate how citric acid affected salty taste perception in a salty - sour binary taste mixture in 16 young and healthy participants. Concentrations of citric acid used in the binary taste mixture were 0.05, 0.09, 0.14, 0.24 and 0.40 mmol/L, respectively, and results showed that salty taste perception was enhanced (average CSI of 0.93 mmol/L) when the citric acid concentration was low (at 0.05 and 0.09 mmol/L), but with an increasing concentration of citric acid ranging from 0.14 to 0.40 mmol/L, this effect gradually turned from enhancement to suppression of salty taste perception (correspondingly a continuously decreasing CSI all the way down to an average of –2.94 mmol/L). It was also found that cystatin SN concentration in participants’ unstimulated saliva samples was significantly negatively correlated with salty taste threshold (with and without the presence of citric acid), and it was one of the most significant factors affecting CSI, as shown in multiple regression analysis. Carbonic anhydrase VI concentration in participants’ unstimulated saliva samples was also found to be significantly negatively correlated with salty taste recognition (with and without presence of citric acid), but it did not pose significant effect on CSI. From these results, this study had not only demonstrated a citric acid concentration-dependent salty taste perception phenomenon based on a proposed methodology to quantitively assess the taste interaction in binary taste mixtures, but also showed how salivary biochemical properties (cystatin SN and carbonic anhydrase VI) might have been associated with salty taste perception during food oral processing.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100784,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Future Foods","volume":"4 4","pages":"Pages 376-382"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772566923000939/pdfft?md5=0ee04b92a7571978695d3944e052354c&pid=1-s2.0-S2772566923000939-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138739127","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
