RESUMO
This study was aimed to produce of hawthorn vinegar to increase the usage area and consumability of the hawthorn fruit and benefit from its functional properties, and to reveal some bioactive compounds, occurred during vinegar production, the functional properties and the volatile compounds (VC). The results showed that the gallic acid was a prominent phenolic substance in both wine and vinegar, followed by the chlorogenic acid. The prominent VACs of the hawthorn vinegar were acetic acid, phenylacetic acid, acetoin, then, respectively, pentanoic acid, benzoic acid, (E)-isoeugenol, 2-cyclohexenone, propanoic acid, chavicol, and diethyl succinate. Within this study, hawthorn vinegar was produced as a new product that had a favorable volatile aroma compound profile and phenolic compounds with high bioactivity. Hawthorn vinegar that shown as an alternative way for the use of hawthorn fruit, its of whose functional and aromatic aspect was first revealed in detail. PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS: Hawthorn is a seasonal fruit, which has potential to be economically important. It has rich bioactive compounds known to have a positive effect on health. However, organoleptic properties (astringent, grainy texture, etc.) of fresh hawthorn fruit are not be mostly liked among most of the consumers. This situation prevents benefiting from the positive effect of hawthorn fruit. For this reason, in this study, it was aimed to produce the hawthorn vinegar, which economically more valuable and also, more functional than fresh hawthorn fruit. According to the results of the present study, organoleptic, functional, and economic values of the hawthorn fruit were improved with the hawthorn vinegar produced in result of the fermentation process. So, it has been considered that this study is beneficial for consumers, scientist or food industry professionals as it guides to transform a low-economic food product to highly economic and functional food product.

An arginine-glucose mixture (1:2 mol ratio) with pH 9 was heated at 53-100 °C for 10-350 min, and the effects of process parameters were determined during the Maillard reaction (MR). The heating temperature and time were selected as process conditions and were studied with central composite design. The model system was tested based on the values obtained from antioxidant capacity, browning intensity, pH, acrylamide (AC), and hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) concentrations. Higher temperatures and longer time resulted in higher antioxidant capacity and browning intensity while lowering the pH values. HMF concentration of MR products was found higher in lower temperatures with longer processing time, whereas AC concentration was found higher in high temperatures.
RESUMO
In this study, it was aimed to determine the bioactive compounds and volatile aroma compounds of the sour cherry vinegar, and to investigate the usability of concentrated juice instead of the fresh fruit juice in vinegar production. And, two sour cherry vinegars were produced using juices prepareted fresh fruit (FSCJ) and concentrate juice (CSCJ), analyzed for functional and organoleptic aspects. The finding shown that both vinegars produced have rich functional compounds (gallic and chlorogenic acids) and volatile aroma compounds, and sour cherry is ideal for vinegar production. However, the vinegar produced using the CSCJ was more prominent, according to aromatic aspect. These aroma compounds were 3-methyl-1-butanol and eugenol, phenethyl alcohol, 2-phenethyl acetate, acetic, isobutyric, isovaleric, hexanoic and octanoic acids. Within this study, a new way for sour cherry usage, independently of the season were proposed. And, aromatic and functional aspects of sour cherry vinegar were revealed for the first time.
