We identified 96 VOCs by GC-MS and 26 VOCs by GC-IMS, among which 11 VOCs were concurrently detected by both methods. Most of these VOCs were produced during the early and mid-fermentation stages. In addition, 24 VOCs were marker VOCs of GFBS during different fermentation stages. Notably, acetic acid, nonenal, (+)-beta-cedrene, 2-pinene, 2, 6-dimethylpyrazine, and trimethylbenzene can be used as markers for the late fermentation of GFBS. These results not only illuminate the complex changes in VOCs, but also provide valuable insights for enhancing fermentation techniques to enhance the flavor quality of GFBS.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":12409,"journal":{"name":"Food Bioscience","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.8,"publicationDate":"2024-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142167860","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The conventional enzymatic process of extracting active peptides from proteins is laborious and time-consuming and often needs more determination of peptide functions. The primary objective of this review is to delve into the precise design of active peptides utilizing computer simulation technology.

Dietary hSCP lowered serum triglyceride and cholesterol levels and restrained adipose tissue expansion in mice fed a normal diet (ND) or a high-fat diet (HFD). The colonic mucosa was prominently lined with acidic and neutral mucin-enriched goblet cells and Muc2 transcription was increased by dietary hSCP in HFD-fed mice. Given the nutritional content of hSCP, microbial shifts triggered by dietary hSCP were dissected from the cecum and colon of the mice. Bacterial community compositions in the luminal contents were significantly reshaped by hSCP supplementation in HFD-fed mice and also differed between intestinal loci, that is, the cecum and colon. Dietary hSCP enriched short-chain fatty acid-producing bacterial genera in ND-fed mice, while attenuating other mucin-degrading bacteria in HFD-fed mice. The addition of hSCP to a co-culture of a defined microbiota community promoted <em>Lactobacillus gasseri</em> proliferation compared with nine other species.
