2-Alkyl-(2H)-thiapyrans and 2-alkylthiophenes have been identified in the volatiles of cooked beef and lamb. The quantities of both groups of compounds were higher in the meat of animals fed lipid supplements high in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. 2-Alkyl-(2H)-thiapyrans were formed when (E,E)-2,4-dienals (C(6)-C(11)) and hydrogen sulfide were heated at 140 degrees C for 30 min. This confirmed their proposed route of formation in cooked meat from lipid-derived aldehydes and hydrogen sulfide; the latter was produced from the degradation of cysteine, via the Maillard reaction. The mass spectra and NMR spectra of these thiapyrans are reported for the first time. Although 2-alkyl-(2H)-thiapyrans were found to have only low odor potency, the reactions by which they are formed may have important implications for meat flavor. These reactions may remove potent aroma compounds and their intermediates from meat, thus modifying the overall aroma profile.  相似文献

The effects of ozone and oxygen on the degradation of carotenoids in an aqueous model system were studied. All-trans beta-carotene, 9-cis beta-carotene, beta-cryptoxanthin, and lycopene were adsorbed onto a C(18) solid phase and exposed to a continuous flow of water saturated with oxygen or ozone at 30 degrees C. Carotenoids were analyzed using HPLC with a C(30) column and a photodiode array detector. Approximately 90% of all-trans beta-carotene, 9-cis beta-carotene, and beta-cryptoxanthin were lost after exposure to ozone for 7 h. A similar loss of lycopene occurred in only 1 h. When exposed to oxygen, all carotenoids, except beta-cryptoxanthin, degraded at lower rates. The degradation of all the carotenoids followed zero-order reaction kinetics with the following relative rates: lycopene > beta-cryptoxanthin > all-trans beta-carotene > 9-cis beta-carotene. The major degradation products of beta-carotene were tentatively identified on the basis of their elution on the HPLC column, UV-Vis spectra, and electrospray LC-MS. Predominant isomers of beta-carotene were 13-cis, 9-cis, and a di-cis isomer. Products resulting from cleavage of the molecule were beta-apo-13-carotenone and beta-apo-14'-carotenal, whereas epoxidation yielded beta-carotene 5,8-epoxide and beta-carotene 5, 8-endoperoxide.  相似文献

Antioxidant and antiradical activities of flavonoids.   总被引:24,自引:0,他引:24  
The relationship between the structure of 42 flavonoids and their antioxidant and antiradical activities was elucidated by heat-induced oxidation in a beta-carotene and linoleic acid system and by the 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl decoloration test. From seven structurally divergent groups of flavonoids, only flavonols with a free hydroxyl group at the C-3 position of the flavonoid skeleton showed high inhibitory activity to beta-carotene oxidation. Antiradical activity depended on the presence of a flavonol structure or free hydroxyl group at the C-4' position. The effect of the 4'-hydroxyl was strongly modified by other structural features, such as the presence of free hydroxyls at C-3 and/or C-3' and a C2-C3 double bond.  相似文献

Carotenoids and chlorophyll-derived compounds in grapes and Port wines were investigated by HPLC-DAD and HPLC-DAD-MS (ESP+) analysis. A total of 13 carotenoid and chlorophyll-derived compounds are formally reported in grapes, 3 are identified for the first time, pheophytins a and b and (13Z)-beta-carotene, and 3 others remain unknown. In Port wines 19 compounds with carotenoid or chlorophyll-like structures are present, 8 still unidentified. The young wines showed higher total carotenoid content and chlorophyll-like compounds compared to aged Ports, with lutein and beta-carotene as major carotenoids. Among samples analyzed of monovarietal Vitis vinifera L. cultivar wines produced with the five most important Douro varieties, Tinta Roriz contained the highest levels of carotenoids and Touriga Franca the lowest. The forced-aging study indicated that lutein was more sensitive to temperature than beta-carotene. Additionally, aged wines showed higher ratios of beta-carotene/lutein concentrations compared to new Ports. Rates of degradation of chlorophyll derivative compounds were higher than those for carotene and lutein.  相似文献

Plastic packaging materials are often associated to aroma losses and to a decrease of the organoleptic quality of foods. This work defines situations where, on the contrary, plastics play a regulating role on the concentration of reactive aroma compounds in foods. These systems can be described by a two step mechanism; first, aroma is sorbed in the polymer, while the fraction in solution degrades quickly; in a second step, as the concentration is close to zero in the solution, the polymer liberates progressively the sorbed aroma back to the food. A simple numerical model is proposed, describing competitive processes of aroma degradation in solution and sorption by a polymer in contact with a homogeneous aqueous food. The classical limonene/low density polyethylene (LDPE) system is studied experimentally for the validation of the model: in an acidic medium, limonene both degrades quickly and is sorbed quickly, with a large solubility in LDPE. To define which aroma packaging systems could also display this interesting behavior, all types of possible interactions, using thermodynamic and kinetic parameters describing most practical situations, are simulated. For that purpose, 35 values of reference diffusion coefficients and 35 partition coefficients of usual aroma compounds between polymers and water have been measured and combined with the few available data from literature. The situations where polymers regulate the aroma concentration in food correspond to large partition coefficients (above 10), large diffusion coefficients (>10(-9) cm2 x s(-1)), and large degradation constants.  相似文献

Strecker degradation is one of the most important reactions leading to final aroma compounds in the Maillard reaction. In an attempt to clarify whether lipid oxidation products may be contributing to the Strecker degradation of amino acids, this study analyzes the reaction of 4,5-epoxy-2-alkenals with phenylalanine. In addition to N-substituted 2-(1-hydroxyalkyl)pyrroles and N-substituted pyrroles, which are major products of the reaction, the formation of both the Strecker aldehyde phenylacetaldehyde and 2-alkylpyridines was also observed. The aldehyde, which was produced at 37 degrees C-as could be determined by forming its corresponding thiazolidine with cysteamine-and pH 6-7, was not produced when the amino acid was esterified. This aldehyde is suggested to be produced through imine formation, which is then decarboxylated and hydrolyzed. This reaction also produces a hydroxyl amino derivative, which is the origin of the 2-alkylpyridines identified. All these data indicate that Strecker-type degradation of amino acids is produced at 37 degrees C by some lipid oxidation products. This is a new proof of the interrelations between lipid oxidation and Maillard reaction, which are able to produce common products by analogue mechanisms.  相似文献

Most of the volatile compounds responsible for the "green" notes to the aroma of fruits and vegetables are produced by the degradation of polyunsaturated fatty acids through the lipoxygenase pathway. The most determinant steps of this pathway are the peroxidation of free linoleic or linolenic acid by the action of lipoxygenase and then the lysis of the resulting hydroperoxides through a reaction catalyzed by the hydroperoxide lyase. This work analyzes the impact of the depletion of these enzymes on the volatile composition of leaves from potato plants. A characterization of the volatile profiles of the different potato mutants, a study of the metabolism of radiolabeled linoleic acid, and a determination of lipoxygenase activity have been carried out. The depletion of hydroperoxide lyase induced an increase in the lipoxygenase activity and the content of C5 volatiles, whereas the lipoxygenase silencing caused a severe decrease in the amount of volatiles produced by the leaves and always in the intensity of their aroma. The changes in the sensory evaluation of leaf aroma, as correlated to depletion of the two enzymes, have been investigated. The perspectives of producing vegetable products with a modified aroma by genetic engineering are discussed in light of the statistical results.  相似文献

The volatile constituents of 10 clones (4 parents with different flavors and 6 hybrids from selected crossings among these parents) of pepino fruit (Solanum muricatum) were isolated by simultaneous distillation-extraction and analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Odor-contributing volatiles (OCVs) were detected by GC-olfactometry-MS analyses and included 24 esters (acetates, 3-methylbutanoates, and 3-methylbut-2-enoates), 7 aldehydes (especially hexenals and nonenals), 6 ketones, 9 alcohols, 3 lactones, 2 terpenes, beta-damascenone, and mesifurane. Among these compounds, 17, of which 5 had not been reported previously in pepino, were found to contribute significantly to pepino aroma. OCVs can be assigned to three groups according to their odor quality: fruity fresh (acetates and prenol), green vegetable (C6 and C9 aldehydes), and exotic (lactones, mesifuran, and beta-damascenone). Quantitative and qualitative differences between clones for these compounds are clearly related to differences in their overall flavor impression. The positive value found for the hybrid-midparent regression coefficient for volatile composition indicates that an important fraction of the variation observed is inheritable, which has important implications in breeding for improving aroma. Significant and positive correlations were found between OCVs having common precursors or related pathways.  相似文献

The volatile compounds formed in slapped and crushed young leaves of Japanese pepper (Xanthoxylum piperitum DC.) were compared with those of intact leaves by using a dynamic headspace gas analysis combined with GC-MS in an on-line system, together with the results of a sensory evaluation. The results indicated that the factors influencing the aroma note were mainly the constituent oxygenated monoterpenes and C(6) compounds and the quantity of terpene hydrocarbons. To clarify the formation mechanism for the aroma, the activities of lipoxygenase and beta-D-glucosidase were investigated. The results revealed that the hydrolysis of glycosides and the degradation of unsaturated fatty acids both played an important role in the formation of the major aroma compounds in young leaves of Japanese pepper.  相似文献

Retinal was determined in margarine (50 mg), infant formula (1 ml), and fortified milk (1 ml) by saponification in centrifuge tubes, extraction of the unsaponifiable lipid with hexane, and high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) in 90% methanol on a 25 cm x 3.2 mm column containing 10 micrometer LiChrosorb reverse phase. beta-Carotene was determined using the same column and 99% methanol as eluant. The vitamins in the eluate were identified and measured from their absorption at 325 (retinol) and 453 nm (beta-carotene), using a computing integrator. Retinol and carotene were prominent peaks in the chromatograms from properly fortified samples and were satisfactorily separated from other materials. In a survey of 12 different margarines for retinol, the results from liquid chromatography agreed with those of a variety of spectrophotometric and fluorometric procedures but they were obtained with greater ease and they could be interpreted more confidently. The recovery of retinol from oil was better than 99%. The coefficients of variation was 6.8% for 12 replicate analyses of a margarine for retinol and 5.4% for 10 replicate analyses of a margarine for beta-carotene.  相似文献

We extracted polyphenols from carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) pods, and evaluated the in vitro antioxidant activity of the crude polyphenol fraction (CPP). The total polyphenol content in CPP determined by the Folin-Ciocalteu method was 19.2%. The condensed tannin content determined by the vanillin and proanthocyanidin assay systems was 4.37% and 1.36%, respectively. beta-Carotene bleaching, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging, inhibition of lipid peroxidation by the erythrocyte ghost, and microsomal assay systems were used to evaluate the antioxidant activity. CPP showed a stronger inhibitory effect against the discoloration of beta-carotene than other polyphenol compounds such as catechins and procyanidins. CPP had weaker antioxidant activity in the DPPH free radical scavenging, the erythrocyte ghost, and microsomal systems than authentic polyphenol compounds at the same concentrations. The activity adjusted by the polyphenol concentration was, however, comparable to that of authentic polyphenol compounds. Considering most carob pods are discarded and not effectively utilized at present, these results suggested that carob pods could be utilized as a functional food or food ingredient.  相似文献

Fresh citrus honey was stored at 10, 20, and 40 degrees C for 12 months. The effect of storage on the quality of honey was evaluated using physicochemical parameters, volatile compounds, mono-, di-, and trisaccharides, and sensory analysis. Diastase activity and HMF were out of the legal limit in honey stored 12 months at 40 degrees C. Volatile compounds (especially terpenes and terpene derivatives), monosaccharides, and disaccharides presented important losses during honey storage at any temperature. Honey storage at 10 or 20 degrees C maintained their floral, fresh, citric, and fresh fruit aroma, while the intensities of these attributes were diminished. Storage at 40 degrees C during 12 months resulted in the appearance of attributes such as "medicinal, smoked, toasted, cooked vegetable, and ripened fruit", associated with compounds formed during the Maillard reaction or through degradation of sugars such as volatile pyrroles, furanones, pyranones, and pyrazines, which appeared or increased in concentration during honey storage mainly at high temperature.  相似文献

Terpenes and C(13) norisoprenoids are among the most important aromatic compounds found in a volatile and nonvolatile form in grapes. Aromatic typicity of a spirit could be attributed to these compounds despite the very important presence of volatile compounds produced during alcoholic fermentation. In this study, following a solid phase extraction stage, the determination of the varietal aromatic compounds by gas chromatography was performed on 15 samples of Galician orujo spirits. The results show that significant differences (p < 0.05) exist in the concentrations of varietal aromatic compounds in Galician spirits obtained from different varieties of grapes. alpha-Ionona is the varietal aromatic compound that is most likely to contribute to the aroma of all of the spirits studied. The spirits from Catalan Roxo are the most aromatic, with floral and fruity nuances, while the spirits from Godello were the less aromatic group as far as the varietal compounds studied are concerned. Spirits from Mencia and Treixadura show a similar profile, but the former has a more intensive aroma due to beta-pinene, citronellol, and alpha-ionone. Albari?o spirits stand out because of their profile that is marked by the contributions of eugenol and linalool.  相似文献

Apparent binding constants of aroma compounds limonene, alpha- and beta-ionone, and terpenyl acetate, with beta-lactoglobulin (BLG), were determined, using dynamic coupled column liquid chromatography, for pH values varying from 3 to 11. K(a) values varied from 2.61 to 3.21 x 10(3) M(-1) for limonene, indicating a strong interaction with BLG. Similarly, significant and close apparent binding constants were obtained for alpha- and beta-ionone, 1.7 x 10(2) and 4.5 to 5.4 x 10(2) M(-1), respectively. These data indicated that a similar mechanism is involved for the binding of these two molecules. The weaker values obtained at low pH, for alpha-ionone relative to beta-ionone, can be explained by the existence of steric hindrance. An increase of the apparent binding constant was observed, for all the compounds studied, when the pH was increased from 3 to 9. At this pH, an apparent binding constant was obtained for terpenyl acetate (1.04 x 10(2) M(-1)), whereas this determination was not possible at pH 3 and 6. The apparent binding constant increase was in agreement with the decrease of aroma compound relative activity coefficient in the presence of BLG, previously observed at this pH. It indicated a best accessibility to the same binding site. The binding constants of all the aroma compounds studied decreased at pH 11 as a result of the important release of the BLG structure previously reported.  相似文献

Light-induced formation of lipid peroxides in a water-in-oil emulsion based on purified rape-seed oil (80%) was found to increase with decreasing wavelength and to have the (apparent) quantum yields (1.1 +/- 0.1) x 10(-)(3) for 436 nm, (2.6 +/- 0.1) x 10(-)(3) for 405 nm, and (4.5 +/- 0.4) x 10(-)(3) for 366 nm irradiation, as determined after 12 h of exposure to monochromatic light of an approximate intensity of 10(18) quanta.min(-)(1).mL(-)(1) and related to total light absorption. Riboflavin (0.8 ppm) had no effect on lipid peroxidation, but photodegraded with a quantum yield ((1.5 +/- 0.3) x 10(-)(5) for 436 nm, (1.7 +/- 0.2) x 10(-)(5) for 405 nm and (1.39 +/- 0.09) x 10(-)(5) for 366 nm irradiation) independent of irradiation wavelength. beta-Carotene was only photodegraded to a minor extent, but protected riboflavin against photodegradation and the lipids against peroxidation for 436 and 405 nm irradiation (reduction in quantum yield three times for 4.5 ppm beta-carotene for lipid oxidation and more for riboflavin degradation), but not for 366 nm irradiation, where beta-carotene has an absorption minimum.  相似文献

The scavenging effects of grape seed extract (GSE) on free radicals formed in an H(2)O(2)/NaOH/DMSO system were examined using a spin-trapping electron spin resonance (ESR) method and compared with other natural antioxidants, ascorbic acid, dl-alpha-tocopherol, and beta-carotene. GSE reduced greatly the ESR signal intensity of superoxide radical-5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrroline-N-oxide (DMPO) adducts. GSE also exhibited weak scavenging activity on hydroxyl radical and a little scavenging activity on methyl radical. Ascorbic acid exhibited strong superoxide and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities, but it increased the amount of methyl radical at high concentration. dl-alpha-Tocopherol reduced the amount of superoxide anion, especially the amount of methyl radical. However, it slightly reduced the amount of hydroxyl radical. beta-Carotene reduced the amount of hydroxyl radical and methyl radical, but it also slightly reduced superoxide anion. In the case of combination use of beta-carotene and dl-alpha-tocopherol, all radical species were suppressed. Combination of GSE and dl-alpha-tocopherol also could reduce all radical species. beta-Carotene and dl-alpha-tocopherol could reduce the methyl radical formation induced by ascorbic acid.  相似文献

The aroma of a Grenache rosé wine from Calatayud (Zaragoza, Spain) has been elucidated following a strategy consisting of an aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA), followed by the quantitative analysis of the main odorants and the determination of odor activities values (OAVs) and, finally, by a series of reconstitution and omission tests with synthetic aroma models. Thirty-eight aroma compounds were found in the AEDA study, 35 of which were identified. Twenty-one compounds were at concentrations higher than their corresponding odor thresholds. An aroma model prepared by mixing the 24 compounds with OAV > 0.5 in a synthetic wine showed a high qualitative similarity with the aroma of the rosé wine. The addition of compounds with OAV < 0.5 did not improve the model, whereas the aroma of a model containing only odorants with OAV > 10 was very different from that of the wine. Omission tests revealed that the most important odorant of this Grenache rosé wine was 3-mercapto-1-hexanol, with a deep impact on the wine fruity and citric notes. The synergic action of Furaneol and homofuraneol also had an important impact on wine aroma, particularly in its fruity and caramel notes. The omission of beta-damascenone, which had the second highest OAV, caused only a slight decrease on the intensity of the aroma model. Still weaker was the sensory effect caused by the omission of 10 other compounds, such as fatty acids and their ethyl esters, isoamyl acetate, and higher alcohols.  相似文献

Land degradation causes great changes in the soil biological properties.The process of degradation may decrease soil microbial biomass and consequently decrease soil microbial activity.The study was conducted out during 2009 and 2010 at the four sites of land under native vegetation(NV),moderately degraded land(LDL),highly degraded land(HDL) and land under restoration for four years(RL) to evaluate changes in soil microbial biomass and activity in lands with different degradation levels in comparison with both land under native vegetation and land under restoration in Northeast Brazil.Soil samples were collected at 0-10 cm depth.Soil organic carbon(SOC),soil microbial biomass C(MBC) and N(MBN),soil respiration(SR),and hydrolysis of fluorescein diacetate(FDA) and dehydrogenase(DHA) activities were analyzed.After two years of evaluation,soil MBC,MBN,FDA and DHA had higher values in the NV,followed by the RL.The decreases of soil microbial biomass and enzyme activities in the degraded lands were approximately 8-10 times as large as those found in the NV.However,after land restoration,the MBC and MBN increased approximately 5-fold and 2-fold,respectively,compared with the HDL.The results showed that land degradation produced a strong decrease in soil microbial biomass.However,land restoration may promote short-and long-term increases in soil microbial biomass.  相似文献

The objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of dietary fat (6% lard and sunflower and olive oil) and supplementation of alpha-tocopheryl acetate or beta-carotene on vitamin E content and lipid oxidation in raw, cooked, and chilled-stored broiler leg meat. Vitamin E increased its tissue level, reducing lipid oxidation. The oxidative stability of leg meat tended to decrease with dietary sunflower oil. Effects of beta-carotene on vitamin E levels and oxidation depended on dietary fat and its concentration in feed, decreasing vitamin E, mainly at 50 ppm. beta-Carotene at 15 ppm acted as antioxidant in fresh and cooked meat in the sunflower and olive oil diets. However, in stored meat, beta-carotene at 50 ppm increased TBARS, probably due to a decrease in vitamin E content and direct prooxidant effects per se. It is suggested that the antioxidant effect of beta-carotene requires the presence of vitamin E in tissues.  相似文献
