RESUMO
Pet owners think of their animals as part of their family, which further promotes the growth of the pet food market, encouraging pet owners to select nutritious, palatable, and high-quality foods for pets. Therefore, the evaluation of taste and volatile compounds in pet foods is essential to improve palatability. In this study, the sensory characteristics of taste and odor compounds in 10 commercially available dry dog foods were investigated using electronic tongue (E-tongue), electronic nose (E-nose), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O). Dry dog foods were separated based on the sensory properties of taste and volatile compounds through the multivariate analysis of integrated results of the E-tongue and E-nose. A total of 67 odor active compounds were detected through GC-MS and GC-O, and octanal, nonanal, 2-pentyl furan, heptanal, and benzaldehyde were identified as key odor compounds which may have positive effects on food intake. The multivariate analysis was used to classify samples based on key odor compounds. Volatile compounds responsible for aroma properties of samples were evaluated using GC-O and multivariate analysis in this present study for the first time. These results are expected to provide fundamental data for sensory evaluation in producing new dog foods with improved palatability.

Various citrus fruits' flavor compounds were analyzed using an electronic sensor (E-sensor), and odor-active compounds were identified using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-olfactometry (GC-MS-O). In the E-tongue analysis, the intensity of sweetness, saltiness, and bitterness was highest in Citrus unshiu, while sourness and umami were highest in C. setomi. A total of 43 volatile compounds were detected in the E-nose analysis, and the compound with the highest peak area was limonene, a type of terpenoid, which exhibited a prominent peak area in C. unshiu. Principal component analysis between flavor compounds and each sample explained a total variance of 83.15% and led to the classification of three clusters. By GC-MS-O, 32 volatile compounds were detected, with limonene being the most abundant, ranging from 20.28 to 56.21 mg/kg. The odor-active compounds were identified as (E)-2-hexenal, hexanal, α-pinene, ß-myrcene, limonene, γ-terpinene, nonanal, and D-carvone, respectively.
RESUMO
This study analyzed the flavor of six types of hemp seed oil (HSO) extracted with roasted hemp seed (RHS) under various conditions (Raw, 140 °C_9 min, 140 °C_12 min, 160 °C_12 min, 180 °C_6 min). Electronic tongue (E-tongue), electronic nose (E-nose), GC-MS (gas chromatography-mass spectrometry), and GC-O (gas chromatography-olfactometry) were used for HSO flavor analysis. As a result of the E-tongue analysis, the sweetness tends to increase in most samples as roasting. A total of 89 and 77 volatile compounds were detected through E-nose and GC-MS, and the main volatile compounds were identified as Maillard reaction products. A total of 16 odor active compounds were detected in the GC-O analysis, and in the case of 160 â_12 min and 180 â_6 min, the scent of Roasted hemp seed oil was more dominant than other aroma profiles. The results of this study are basic data on the flavor characteristics of HSO.
RESUMO
This research investigated volatiles and odor active compounds in Osmanthus fragrans var. aurantiacus. Heterocyclics were mainly extracted from hexane and dichloromethane extracts. Ketones were mainly detected from butanol fraction, and alcohols were mainly extracted from the ethanol fraction. GC-O analysis investigated the contents and intensities of three major odor active compounds increasing by ramping up polarity Multivariate analysis, which includes principal component analysis (PCA) and hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), by E-nose data showed 45.83% (PC1) and 29.27 (PC2) variances, respectively, and segregated two clusters. Multivariate analysis by GC-O data showed 65.64% (PC1) and 24.17% (PC2) variances, respectively, and segregated the three clusters, cluster I by ethanol extract, cluster II by dichloromethane extract, and cluster III by hexane and butanol extracts. This study demonstrates that different polarity solvents can collect various volatiles and odor active compound groups. Our findings can support basic research data as a natural and functional food additive.
RESUMO
This study investigated the effects of roasting conditions on the physicochemical, taste, and volatile and odor-active compound (OAC) profiles of Coffea arabica L. At 150 â, roasting increased chlorogenic acid, total flavonoids, and caffeine concentrations. However, umami and sourness sensor decreased during the roasting process. At 210 â roasting, total flavonoid and caffeine concentrations increased during the roasting process. Aldehydes, ketones, and sulfur-containing compounds dramatically increased during the roasting at 210 â for 20 and 30 min in E-nose analysis. Pyrazines were mainly generated during the roasting at 210 â for 20 and 30 min, and pyrazines showed the highest concentrations among all OACs in GC-olfactometry (GC-O) analysis. E-tongue data showed the separation of beans by roasting temperature. However, the E-nose and GC-O data showed the separation of beans by both roasting temperature and time via multivariate analysis. We identified similar results and patterns in the E-nose and GC-O analyses.
RESUMO
This study investigated the effects of oven-roasting temperature (160, 180, and 200 â) and time (5, 10, 15, and 20 min) on pomegranate seeds. Physicochemical properties, such as color (L*, a*, and b* values), browning index (BI), total phenolic and flavonoid contents, 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging capacity, and chemosensory properties, including taste and volatile compounds, were analyzed. The L* and a* values, and level of sourness, umami, sweetness, and terpenes decreased, whereas the b* value, BI, and level of saltiness, bitterness, furan derivatives, pyrazines, and sulfur-containing compounds, increased with roasting time. The findings of this study showed that the positive roasting conditions for pomegranate seeds were 10-20 min at 160 â and, 5-10 min at 180 â. This study is expected to be used as a primary reference for selecting the optimal oven-roasting conditions in which positive effects appear and for developing products utilizing pomegranate seeds.

In this study, we investigated the effect of roasting conditions and time on the physicochemical properties of pomegranate seed oil. We analyzed the fatty acid, total phenolic, flavonoid, tocopherol, and phytosterol contents of pomegranate seed oil extracted under four conditions: raw, heated at 160°C for 15 min, heated at 160°C for 20 min, and heated at 180°C for 10 min, which included three that were well-established to enhance nutritional and flavor properties. Furthermore, the oxidative stability was evaluated based on the acid value, peroxide value, and induction period. Roasting significantly decreased the contents of punicic acid, polyunsaturated fatty acids, tocopherol, and phytosterol and the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging capacity (P<0.05) of the oil. Conversely, saturated fatty acids, monounsaturated fatty acids, acid value, peroxide value, total phenolic and flavonoid contents, and induction period were significantly increased (P<0.05). Our results suggest that the roasting conditions were nutritionally and oxidatively stable, thereby enhancing the roasting process and providing a database for essential roasting treatments for pomegranate seed oil.
RESUMO
This study evaluated the effects of inhaling Osmanthus fragrans var. aurantiacus (OFA) extracts in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats experiencing chronic stress. Rats were exposed to restraint stress or circadian disruption and were inhaled either distilled water or OFA extracts. Electronic nose (E-nose) analysis identified 35 volatile aromatic compounds (VACs) in OFA extracts. Chronic stress led to a decrease in body weight initially, serotonin concentration, and the weights of the liver, kidneys, and fat pads. Additionally, circadian disruption increased melatonin levels and decreased cholesterol concentrations. Inhalation of OFA increased dietary intake during the early phase and restored the tissue weights that have changed by chronic stress. Furthermore, it led to an increase in melatonin levels and changes in cholesterol levels. Taken together, our results indicate that OFA inhalation improves physiological changes caused by chronic stress through regulating dietary intake, restoring tissue weights, and modulating hormone and cholesterol levels.

A total of 23 odor active compounds were recognized using GC-O, and 3-methyl-butanal, heptanal, benzaldehyde, octanal, furfural, and methoxy-phenyl-oxime were identified as the aroma of salmon. Using multivariate analysis, the pattern between the pretreated samples and aroma profiles was confirmed, and there were clear separations among the samples. The results of this study provide the aroma profile of salmon by-products and are expected salmon by-products to be used as a potential food source.
RESUMO
This study investigated the effects of four brewing methods (cold and hot brew, espresso, and cezve) on the chemical sensory properties of green and roasted coffee beans (cv. Yellow Bourbon) extract. The caffeine and chlorogenic acid contents of the coffee were analyzed using HPLC. The taste and volatile aromatic compounds of coffee were analyzed using an electronic tongue and nose, respectively, and the results were analyzed using principal component analysis. For the taste components analyzed using the electronic tongue, the degree of separation was relatively large depending on the extraction method, and the degree of separation was larger depending on roasting for the volatile compounds analyzed using the electronic nose. Our findings provide basic data for the coffee industry. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The use of an electronic sensor will provide flavor characteristics for four different types of coffee extracted from green beans and roasted beans. In this study, it was confirmed that the extraction method had a greater effect on the taste of coffee, and in the case of the volatile aromatic compounds of coffee, there was a large difference depending on the green beans and roasted beans. Therefore, our findings will provide data based on the sensory properties of coffee.

The present study is to investigate the non-volatile and volatile profiles in radish according to the different oven roasting processing. In non-volatile compound profiles, different roasting temperatures (140-200 °C) and times (5, 10, 15, and 20 min) influenced non-volatile compounds in radishes, and high temperature roasted radish represented obvious changes than low temperature roasted radish. In volatile profiles, high temperature roasted radish were generated a higher number of Maillard reactions-related volatiles, including furfurals and 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine, than low temperature roasted radish. In chemometrics results, a radish roasted at 200 °C for 20 min was the highest dissimilarity compared with the other roasted radishes. This study is believed to be the first research demonstrating comprehensive identification of changes in non-volatile/volatiles profiles in radish by various processes (different times and temperatures) of oven roasting for food applications.
RESUMO
In this study, odor components were analyzed using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) and solid-phase microextraction (SPME), and odor-active compounds (OACs) were identified using GC-olfactometry (GC-O). Among the volatile compounds identified through GC-O, p-anisaldehyde, limonene, estragole, anethole, and trans-anethole elicit the fennel odor. In particular, trans-anethole showed the highest odor intensity and content. Changes in body weight during the experimental period showed decreasing values of fennel essential oil (FEO)-inhaled groups, with both body fat and visceral fat showing decreased levels. An improvement in the body's lipid metabolism was observed, as indicated by the increased levels of cholesterol and triglycerides and decreased levels of insulin in the FEO-inhaled groups compared to group H. Furthermore, the reduction in systolic blood pressure and pulse through the inhalation of FEO was confirmed. Our results indicated that FEO inhalation affected certain lipid metabolisms and cardiovascular health, which are obesity-related dysfunction indicators. Accordingly, this study can provide basic research data for further research as to protective applications of FEO, as well as their volatile profiles.

This study analyzed taste and odor profiles in broccoli stems with different methods of thermal processing using electronic tongue and electronic nose. In electronic tongue analysis, umami and bitterness were obviously changed upon thermal processing, however, saltiness, sweetness, and sourness showed slight variations. Between raw and thermally processed broccolis, microwaved broccoli showed the highest changes of tastes based on raw broccoli, however, blanched broccoli showed similar tastes to raw broccoli compared with the others. In electronic nose analysis, a total of 21 volatiles in broccolis were analyzed. Sulfur-containing volatiles were changed via thermal steps, and the generation and reduction of sulfur-containing compounds have occurred (i.e. methnaethiol, 2,4,5-trimethylthiazole). In addition, some of the thermal steps (oven-heating, microwave heating, air-frying) have occurred Maillard reaction, and thus pyridine was generated. Therefore, this study can provide flavor data in broccoli, and contribute to further research for flavor characteristics in broccoli using electronic sensors.
RESUMO
We explored the physiological effects of inhaling basil essential oil (BEO) and/or linalool and identified odor-active aroma compounds in BEO using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and GC-olfactometry (GC-O). Linalool was identified as the major volatile compound in BEO. Three groups of rats were administered BEO and linalool via inhalation, while rats in the control group were not. Inhalation of BEO for 20 min only reduced the total weight gain (190.67 ± 2.52 g) and increased the forced swimming time (47.33 ± 14.84 s) compared with the control group (219.67 ± 2.08 g, 8.33 ± 5.13 s). Inhalation of BEO for 5 min (392 ± 21 beats/min) only reduced the pulse compared with the control group (420 ± 19 beats/min). Inhalation of linalool only reduced the weight of white adipose tissue (5.75 ± 0.61 g). The levels of stress-related hormones were not significantly different among the groups. The total cholesterol and triglyceride levels decreased after inhalation of BEO for 20 min (by more than -10% and -15%, respectively). Low-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels were lowered (by more than -10%) by the inhalation of BEO and linalool, regardless of the inhalation time. In particular, BEO inhalation for 20 min was associated with the lowest level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (53.94 ± 2.72 mg/dL). High-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels increased after inhalation of BEO (by more than +15%). The atherogenic index and cardiac risk factors were suppressed by BEO inhalation. Animals exposed to BEO and linalool had no significant differences in hepatotoxicity. These data suggest that the inhalation of BEO and linalool may ameliorate cardiovascular and lipid dysfunctions. These effects should be explored further for clinical applications.

The purpose of this study was to investigate sensory characteristics in radishes, processed through different methods, using chemosensory-assisted instruments. For electronic tongue (E-tongue) analysis, freeze-dried radish was high in the sensor values of sourness, umami, and sweetness, however, the saltiness was the lowest. In particular, the sensor values of taste freeze-dried radish have changed more than that of thermally processed radishes. Unlike the results of E-tongue, volatiles of freeze-dried radish have changed less than that of thermally processed radishes. In detail, amounts of sulfur-containing compound (thiophene) in freeze-dried radish were relatively higher than thermally processed radishes by an electronic nose. For gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and GC-olfactometry, the amount of sulfur-containing compounds in freeze-dried radish were also relatively higher than thermally processed radishes, and odor active compounds were also high in freeze-dried radish.
