The effect of heat processing on the flavor characteristics of highland barley flour (HBF) in storage was revealed by analyzing differences in volatile compounds associated with flavor deterioration in HBF using GC-MS identification and relative odor activity values (ROAVs). Hydrocarbons were the most abundant in untreated and extrusion puffed HBFs, while heterocycles were found to be the most abundant in explosion puffed, baked, and fried HBFs. The major contributors to the deterioration of flavor in different HBFs were hexanal, hexanoic acid, 2-pentylfuran, 1-pentanol, pentanal, 1-octen-3-ol, octanal, 2-butyl-2-octanal, and (E,E)-2,4-decadienal. Amino acid and fatty acid metabolism was ascribed to the main formation pathways of these compounds. Baking slowed down the flavor deterioration in HBF, while extrusion puffing accelerated the flavor deterioration in HBF. The screened key compounds could predict the quality of HBF. This study provides a theoretical basis for the regulation of the flavor quality of barley and its products.

Lipid peroxidation is a critical biochemical process that significantly contributes to the deterioration of food quality, particularly in products rich in unsaturated fatty acids. Among the secondary oxidation products, aldehydes such as malondialdehyde (MDA) are responsible for undesirable changes in flavor and nutritional value. Although synthetic antioxidants are commonly employed to mitigate lipid peroxidation, increasing concerns regarding their potential health risks have led the food industry to pursue natural alternatives.

Thermal impregnation (TI) is a traditional method of sugar infusion, but it has disadvantages such as long processing time and uneven sugar distribution. Therefore, developing sugar impregnation methods to enhance product flavor, nutritional value, and processing efficiency is critical for addressing potential quality loss and efficiency bottlenecks in traditional preserve processing technologies. This study took the TI process widely adopted in Xinjiang over the long term as a reference and systematically compared the effects of vacuum impregnation (VI) and ultrasonic-assisted impregnation (UI) on the flavor characteristics and physicochemical properties of plum preserves.

Chromatic quality of white icewines can deteriorate rapidly under high temperatures due to phenolic degradation. Mannoproteins, commonly recognized as an effective phenolic protector, exhibited dynamic behaviors towards phenolic compounds in icewines in heat destabilizing experiments, which could further aggravate the color deterioration. To investigate the correlated mechanism, mutual interactions among mannoproteins, phenolic compounds, and glucose were analyzed in model (ice)wine solutions with heat destabilizing experiments.

Infant formula milk powder processing technology is complex; the melting treatment of milk powder oil raw materials is also crucial to its quality. It was experimentally concluded that oil needs 29 h, 24 h, 20 h, and 18 h to be completely oiled at 50 °C, 60 °C, 70 °C, and 80 °C, respectively. To investigate the effects of these four processes on oil quality, oxidative stability, and flavor.

Temperature is the most critical factor in fish preservation. Superchilled storage represents a novel technology that effectively retards quality deterioration in aquatic products. This study investigated the flavor variation patterns and deterioration mechanisms in 16 northern pike () samples during superchilled storage (-3 °C) based on analysis using gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (GC-IMS) and ultra-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-Q-TOF/MS).
