Among them, hexyl acetate, Keywords: octyl acetate, ethyl butyrate, ethyl hexanoate, ethyl octanoate, methyl decanoate, and ethyl decanoate Volatile ester composition were found in both F. × ananassa and F. vesca, while 1-methyltridecyl acetate, myrtenyl acetate, trans- Aroma pattern pinocarvyl acetate, and ethyl dodecanoate were only present in F. vesca. The numbers of carbons of the F. × ananassa predominant esters in F. × ananassa were usually smaller than those of F. vesca. Ethyl hexanoate and octyl F. vesca × acetate were the esters with the highest average concentrations in F. ananassa and F. vesca, respectively. It was found that hexyl acetate, methyl butyrate, hexyl butyrate, methyl hexanoate, and ethyl hexanoate ≥ were major contributors to the aroma of cultivated strawberry because their odor values were 1 in every cultivar, however, no ester was found to be so important like that for all of the F. vesca accessions. Most × of the predominant esters of F. ananassa were described as having only fruity odor. Unlike the case of F. × ananassa, nearly all of the predominant esters of F. vesca have a noticeable floral odor in addition to a fruity note. That may contribute to the variations in fruit aroma. The average number and proportion of acyl and alkyl esters differed between species. Acetate esters predominated in F. vesca, accounting for a × significantly higher average proportion of total esters than in F. ananassa. All the differences in volatile esters are likely to play a key role in the different aroma patterns of F. × ananassa and F. vesca. © 2012 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. 1. Introduction Fruit aroma is the result of the presence of various aroma com- pounds. Researchers have been studying the differences in aroma Strawberry (Fragaria sp.) is planted throughout the world. One volatiles between the cultivated strawberry (F. × ananassa) and of the major quality characteristics of strawberry is its aroma. It has wild strawberry species. Staudt et al. (1975) detected 120 volatile been reported that a large number of volatile compounds such as compounds in fruit of F. nilgerrensis and found that it had a different esters, terpenes, alcohols, ketones and furans contribute to straw- aroma composition from that of F. × ananassa, with methyl ben- berry aroma (Pérez et al., 1992; Zabetakis and Holden, 1997). The zoate, benzyl acetate, methyl cinnamate, and ethyl cinnamate being fruit aroma is influenced by genotype and environment (Forney the most prominent in the former. Pyysalo et al. (1979) identified et al., 2000). Wild strawberries tend to have a more intense aroma butyl formate, octyl acetate, decyl acetate, benzyl acetate, carveyl than cultivated ones. Fruit aroma patterns vary among Fragaria sp. acetate, decyl butanoate, methyl nicotinate, methyl anthranilate, (Ulrich et al., 2007). and methyl N-formylanthranilate in wild strawberries, but none in F. × ananassa. Ulrich et al. (1997) reported that the main sensory profiles of F. vesca including aromatic, flowery, sweet, and flavor differed notably from those of cultivated cultivars. ଝ This study was financially supported by the Beijing Science and Technology F. vesca has been extensively investigated because of its intense Nova Project (2008B36), the Beijing Natural Science Foundation (6122013) and the aroma (Hirvi and Honkanen, 1982; Pyysalo et al., 1979; Ulrich et al., Beijing Science and Technology Project (Z111100056811035-2).

  • Effect of Enzymes on Strawberry Volatiles During Storage, at Different Ripeness
    Effect of Enzymes on Strawberry Volatiles During Storage, at Different Ripeness Level, in Different Cultivars and During Eating Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Gulsah Ozcan Graduate Program in Food Science and Technology The Ohio State University 2010 Thesis Committee: Sheryl Ann Barringer, Adviser W. James Harper John Litchfield 1 Copyright by Gülşah Özcan 2010 ii ABSTRACT Strawberry samples with enzyme activity and without enzyme activity (stannous chloride added) were measured for real time formation of lipoxygenase (LOX) derived aroma compounds after 5 min pureeing using selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS). The concentration of (Z)-3-hexenal and (E)-2-hexenal increased immediately after blending and gradually decreased over time while hexanal concentration increased for at least 5 min in ground strawberries. The formation of hexanal was slower than the formation of (Z)-3-hexenal and (E)-2-hexenal in the headspace of pureed strawberries. The concentration of LOX aldehydes and esters significantly increased during refrigerated storage. Damaging strawberries increased the concentration of LOX aldehydes but did not significantly affect the concentration of esters. The concentrations of many of the esters were strongly correlated to their corresponded acids and/or aldehydes. The concentration of LOX generated aldehydes decreased during ripening, while fruity esters increased. Different varieties had different aroma profiles and esters were the greatest percentage of the volatiles. The aroma release of some of the LOX derived aldehydes in the mouthspace in whole strawberries compared to chopped strawberries showed that these volatiles are formed in the mouth during chewing.

Interspecific yeast hybrids used in modern monoculture inoculations benefit from a wide range of volatile metabolites that broaden the organoleptic complexity. This is the first report of sake brewing by Saccharomyces arboricola and its hybrids. S. arboricola x S. cerevisiae direct-mating generated cryotolerant interspecific hybrids which increased yields of ethanol and ethyl hexanoate compared to parental strains, important flavor attributes of fine Japanese ginjo sake rice wine. We used hierarchical clustering heatmapping with principal component analysis for metabolic profiling and found that the low levels of endogenous amino/organic acids clustered S. arboricola apart from the S. cerevisiae industrial strains. In sake fermentations, hybrid strains showed a mosaic profile of parental strains, while metabolic analysis suggested S.

Various reaction parameters including butyric acid concentration, enzyme concentra- tion, temperature and ethanol/butyric acid molar ratio affecting ethyl butyrate production were investigated using a fractional factorial design 24–1. Based on the results from the first factorial design, all of the variables which were significant in the process were selected to be used in a 24 central composite rotatable design (CCRD). The optimum conditions for the enzymatic reaction were obtained at a 90 mM butyric acid concentration using a 7.7 g/L enzyme concentration at 45 °C and the ethanol/butyric acid molar ratio of 1:1 for 3 h. The esterification percentage, under these conditions, was 87 %.

The reaction is an interesterification, a multistep consecutive ester interchange cat- Accepted 27 December 2010 alyzed by either acid or base catalyst. Under optimized conditions, a complete tributyrin conversion and Available online 4 January 2011 an almost quantitative butyric acid methyl ester accumulation were achieved. The other reaction prod- uct, TAG, formed by the complete acetylation of the glycerol moiety, reached almost 70% yield, whereas Keywords: Interesterification the mono- and di-acetylated intermediates accumulated in the order of 5–8% and 24–27%, respectively.
