Flavor is one of the important indicators of food quality, and the development of rapid detection methods for key flavor substances is crucial for the intelligent evaluation of food flavor. Herein, umami receptor T1R1-VFT and olfactory receptor Mor1-1 were used as sensitive elements to specifically recognize umami substances and hexanal molecules. Combining the excellent biocompatibility and electrochemical activity of AuPtNPs and hydrogels, the receptors are well immobilized in the three-dimensional network structure, thereby a multichannel biomimetic sensor for multiple detection of umami and hexanal was constructed. The sensor showed low detection limits of 10 M and 10 M for umami substances and hexanal, respectively. In addition, the sensor had high specificity and storage stability of 2-3 weeks, and it was successfully applied to assess the freshness of fish. The multichannel sensor provides an efficient and multi-dimensional analysis for food flavor evaluation to ensure food quality.

Jasmine tea, a further processing tea made by scenting green, black, oolong, or other tea with jasmine flowers, is widely appreciated worldwide for its fragrant aroma, refreshing taste, and beneficial health effects. The production of jasmine tea is a meticulous and complex process that involves chemical reactions, physical adsorption, and flavor interaction effects at the sensory level between jasmine and tea. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the research on the processing technology, characteristic aroma formation, nonvolatile compounds, and health benefits of jasmine tea.

Hanseniaspora species are among the most prevalent yeasts found on grapes and other fruits, with a growing role in wine fermentation due to their distinctive metabolic profiles. This review focuses on the functional divergence within the genus, particularly between the fast-evolving fruit clade and the slow-evolving fermentation clade. While species in the fruit clade often exhibit limited fermentation capacity with interesting enzymatic activity, members of the fermentation clade-especially H.

Background: Secondary fermentation can reduce variability in cocoa bean quality caused by the spontaneous, uncontrolled nature of primary fermentation. However, its optimization remains unexplored. This study evaluated the improvement of secondary fermentation through the combined use of Citrus limon peel and inoculation with Candida tropicalis H1Y4-1 as a starter.

This study developed a vegan chocolate spread using spray-dried plant-based milk powders (soy, lentil, and rice), fortified with nano-liposomal vitamin D3 and an oleogel-balanced omega fatty acid to enhance nutritional quality. The plant-based milk powders exhibited high protein (up to 26.8% in soy), fiber, and micronutrients.
