Summary: This study identified 27 odorants in Chardonnay marc stems and determined the key odorants. The research also found that the skins contributed mostly to hay, floral, and fruity attributes of the whole marc, while the seeds contributed mostly to the fatty attribute and the stems had a minor contribution.

Summary: The human nose is used as a detector in gas chromatographic analysis to evaluate aroma-related compounds in wine, with olfactometric techniques assisting in describing and identifying odor compounds. Different gas chromatography methods are used to analyze coeluted compounds and trace components, while combining instrumental techniques with sensory analysis provides more accurate information on wine aroma. Recent advances in olfactometric methods and analytical techniques have contributed to a better understanding of wine aroma profiles.

Summary: This study investigated the volatile components of roasted mullet roe using headspace-solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography-olfactometry and aroma extract dilution analysis. Both the roasting time and temperature were found to be important parameters in aroma generation. Acetic acid, methional, hexanoic acid, and benzeneacetaldehyde were identified as the most potent odorants in raw mullet roe, while 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine, 2-ethyl-3,5-dimethylpyrazine, 5-methyl-2-phenyl-2-hexenal, and sulfurol were the primary odorants in roasted mullet roe. The flavor profile of the water extract and defatted residue reaction models were most similar to that of roasted mullet roe, with Maillard reaction playing a key role in flavor generation.

Summary: The flavor of pea proteins was characterized using sensory analysis and volatile compound analyses. Seven sensory attributes were identified, including cereal/grain, cardboard, green pea, beany/yellow pea, bitter, umami, and astringent. The study also identified key aroma-active compounds in pea proteins. This research can be helpful for product development and flavor masking of pea protein applications.

Summary: Oak wood contains aroma-active compounds that significantly impact the quality of alcoholic beverages and vinegars. The chemical composition of cooperage oak varies based on toasting and seasoning, but it's unclear if the odor of oak differs by geographical regions. This study analyzed the odor profiles of natural oak samples from Germany, Austria, and Hungary, identifying fatty acid degradation products as the majority of odorants. The research revealed differences in odor between oak samples from different growth regions, with Hungarian oak showing the highest separation rate in sensory evaluation.

Summary: Stable isotope tracers are commonly used with gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry for enzyme activity and metabolic pathway studies. In this research, three commercially available instruments were used to analyze samples from a stable isotope labeling study on Rothia mucilaginosa metabolism. The study found that all three GC-MS instruments can be used for stable isotope tracing studies, with high-resolution GC-QTOF MS offering additional capabilities in identifying the chemical structures of unknown compounds.

Summary: Although oceans play a crucial role in the global selenium cycle, there is limited quantitative information available on selenium concentrations and speciation in marine environments. This study developed a sensitive method using species-specific isotope dilution gas chromatography coupled to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ID-GC-ICPMS) to determine the different selenium chemical fractions in seawater, allowing for the measurement of selenium concentrations in brackish and marine systems.
