Decoding the aroma changes of stir-fried shredded potatoes with different soy sauces using thermal desorption combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and sensory evaluation.

The aroma changes of stir-fried shredded potatoes (SFSP) were investigated using thermal desorption combined with sensory evaluation and chemometrix analysis. The intensity of the sauce aroma, savory, fatty, and roasty attributes were significantly increased, while the intensity of beany and green attributes were significantly (p < 0.001) inhibited after soy sauce added.

Decoding the Effect of Running on Flavor Perception Changes during Consumption of Sports Drinks.

An online survey was conducted to show that most respondents preferred sports drinks with sweet and fruity characteristics. Eleven sports drinks with higher consumers' preferences were further selected for aroma and taste evaluation. Temporal dominance of sensations analysis showed that fruity and fresh attributes were dominant, while sour and fruity sweet were dominant tastes during consumption.

Electronic tongue, proton-transfer-reaction mass spectrometry, spectral analysis, and molecular docking characterization for determining the effect of α-amylase on flavor perception.

The effects of α-amylase on of flavor perception were investigated via spectrum analysis, electronic tongue, on-line mass spectrometry, and molecular docking. Aroma release results showed that α-amylase exhibited variable release patterns of different aroma compounds. Electronic tongue analysis showed that the perception of bitterness, sweetness, sour, and saltiness was subtly increased and that of umami was significantly increased (p < 0.

Decoding the Different Aroma-Active Compounds in Soy Sauce for Cold Dishes via a Multiple Sensory Evaluation and Instrumental Analysis.

Screening the suitability of soy sauce for specific cooking methods from various products is beneficial for the fine development of the soy sauce industry. Multiple sensory evaluation and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry/olfactometry (GC-MS/O) analysis were combined to decode the suitability of soy sauces for cold dishes and characterize their differential aroma-active compounds. Thirty-two kinds of soy sauce with 42 sensory descriptors were determined via a check-all-that-apply analysis, and werefurther classified into six categories via a cluster analysis.
