The sensory quality of tencha is significantly determined by innate differences among tea cultivars. However, the correlations between the chemical composition and sensory traits of tencha are still unclear. To enhance the understanding of the flavor formation mechanism in tencha and further to develop new cultivars resources, we investigated non-volatiles and volatile metabolites as well as sensory traits in tencha from different tea cultivars (Camellia sinensis cv. Yabukita, Longjing 43 and Baiye 1); the relationships between the flavor traits and non-volatiles/volatiles were further evaluated by partial least squares - discriminate analysis (PLS-DA), multiple factor analysis (MFA) and multidimensional alignment (MDA) analysis. A total of 64 non-volatiles and 116 volatiles were detected in all samples, among which 71 metabolites were identified as key flavor-chemical contributors involving amino acids, flavonol glycosides, flavones, catechins, ketones, alcohols, hydrocarbons, aldehydes, esters and acids. The levels of taste-related amino acids, flavonol glycosides and gallic acid varied significantly among the tencha samples made from different tea cultivars. All the samples exhibited typical quality characteristics of tencha. The tencha from Camellia sinensis cv. Longjing 43 and Camellia sinensis cv. Baiye 1 (cultivated in the open) exhibited higher levels of amino acids and gallic acid, which were associated with the umami taste and mellow taste of tea infusion. Abundant flavonol glycosides were related to the astringency, while partial tri-glycosides specifically quercetin-3-O-galactoside-rhamnoside-glucoside and total of flavonol galactoside-rhamnoside-glucoside were associated with mellow taste. The floral alcohols were identified as significant contributors to the refreshing aroma traits of tencha. The green, almond-like, acidic and fruity odorants were associated with a green and fresh aroma, while the green, cheesy and waxy odorants such as ketones, esters, acids and hydrocarbons were associated with seaweed-like aroma. This study provides insight into sensory-related chemical profiles of tencha from different tea cultivars, supplying valuable information on flavor and quality identification for tencha.</p>","PeriodicalId":94010,"journal":{"name":"Food research international (Ottawa, Ont.)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41170943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Hence, the control and experimental cheese prototypes produced in two rounds of cheesemaking trials were assayed, at the end of their 60-day maturation, for the following features: pH, titratable acidity, dry matter, fat, total and soluble nitrogen (TN and SN, respectively), ash, salt, protein, lactose, viable plate counts and composition of the bacterial and fungal populations, color, texture, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and olfactory attributes by sensory analysis (the latter for the sole prototypes curdled with the commercial rennet and the extract obtained from cultivated O. tauricum). The data overall collected showed a very low impact of the type of thistle rennet on the analyzed cheese traits, with significant differences being exclusively found for SN/TN%, titratable acidity, color, and adhesiveness. By contrast, a higher impact of the cheesemaking round was seen, with significant differences being observed for salt content, load of presumptive lactobacilli, thermophilic cocci, and Escherichia coli, and levels of the following VOCs: 2,3-butanedione, 2-pentanone, 1-butanol, 2-heptanone, 3-methyl-1-butanol, 2-heptanol, 2-nonanone, dimethyl trisulfide, 2-methyl propanoic acid, butanoic acid, and 3-methyl butanoic acid. Sensory analysis revealed a strong ewe's cheese odor, accompanied by other olfactory notes, such as pungent, sour curd, sweet, and Parmesan cheese-like notes, in all the analysed cheese prototypes. Moreover, key odor active compounds, including butanoic acid, ethyl butanoate, 2,3-butanedione, 1-octen-3-one, and dimethyl trisulfide, were identified by GC-olfactometry analysis. Regarding the odor attributes as determined by sensory analysis, again the type of rennet had an almost negligible impact, with significant differences being only perceived for 1 or 2 out of 20 odor attributes, depending on the analytical conditions applied.

Raising the storage temperature is the most common approach utilized in the conventional accelerated shelf-life test (ASLT) to reduce the shelf-life testing time of food. Oxygen pressure as an accelerant for the shelf-life determination of food products has not been given much attention even though it has shown a negative impact on food shelf-life. Combining oxygen pressure and temperature as accelerants has the potential to further reduce the overall analysis time compared to the ASLT. This study focuses on the effects of applying oxygen pressure and temperature as multi-accelerants on the shelf-life of a shelf-stable product by investigating the extent of vitamins degradation and modeling the reaction using a mechanistic approach. A shelf-stable model food fortified with vitamins A, B1, C and D3 was developed to investigate the effect of multiple accelerants on the quality indicators of shelf-stable foods in a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) container. PET bottles filled with model food were placed in a high-pressure (138 kPa) 100% oxygen environment at 40 °C. This novel process is named as the ultra-accelerated shelf-life test (UASLT). Samples were also subjected to ASLT conditions at 40 °C and control condition at 22.5 °C, both at ambient pressure for comparison. UASLT treatment induced a rapid degradation of 27.1 ± 1.9%, 35.8 ± 1.0%, and 35.4 ± 0.7% in vitamins A, C and D3, respectively, in just 50 days. Slower degradation was observed with samples kept under the ASLT conditions for 105 days with a degradation of 24.0 ± 2.0%, 32.0 ± 3.1% and 25.1 ± 1.5% for vitamin A, C and D3, respectively. The control samples that were studied for 210 days showed 14.9 ± 5.0%, 13.8 ± 2.2% and 10.6 ± 0.8% degradation in vitamins A, C and D3, respectively. The increase in the ΔE values due to browning in samples kept at the UASLT, ASLT and control conditions were 11.67 ± 0.09, 7.49 ± 0.19 and 2.51 ± 0.11, respectively. The degradation of vitamin B1 was similar across the treatments. The addition of oxygen pressure significantly increased the degradation reaction rates of the vitamins and color due to the rapid influx of oxygen. A mechanistic model that coupled oxygen diffusion and simultaneous vitamin degradation provided a good fit to the experimental data for the UASLT treatment with a rate constant of 0.686, 0.631 and 0.422 M^-1day^-1 for vitamins C, D3 and A, respectively.
