This study has demonstrated the potential of using a whole biomass (matcha) as the single encapsulant for protection and delivery of omega-3 oils. p-Cresol (PC) is a potential off-flavor and carcinogenic compound that affects food flavor and safety. However, controlling the production of PC when making fermented food is hindered by a lack of knowledge of the microbial diversity and the growth requirements of the microbiota that produce PC. To address this, the present study used three media with selected carbon sources (glucose, ethanol and lactic acid) to explore the microbial origin of PC and to determine the preferred carbon source for the PC-producing microbiota in the pit mud of the strong-aroma type Baijiu. The results showed that the different carbon sources affected the microbial structure, especially of the PC-producing microbiota. Glucose led to the highest production of PC and lactic acid to the lowest. The production of PC was significantly correlated (p  0.6) with Dorea, Sporanaerobacter, Tepidimicrobium, Tissierella Soehngenia, Clostridium and Sedimentibacter in the glucose medium; with Proteiniborus, Ruminococcus and Sporanaerobacter in the ethanol medium; and with Lutispora and Tepidimicrobium in the lactic acid medium. Multiphasic metabolite target analysis further indicated that the PC-producing microbiota could also metabolize flavor compounds. Lactic acid could inhibit the production of PC and ensure that the microbiota produced the appropriate flavor compounds during culture. Collectively, Dorea, Sporanaerobacter, Tepidimicrobium, Tissierella_Soehngenia, Clostridium, Sedimentibacter, Proteiniborus, Ruminococcus and Lutispora were identified as potential PC producers in three media with glucose preferred as the carbon source. These findings provide a perspective on the microbiota and carbon source preference for ultimately improving the quality of distilled alcoholic beverage. Temporal Dominance of Sensations (TDS) and Temporal Check-all-that-apply (TCATA) are fast and dynamic descriptive techniques for sensory characterization of food. The temporal perception involved during the consumption of reformulated meat products are rarely considered and, in this context, the aim of the present work was to evaluate the influence of salt and fat reduction on Bologna sausage with addition of emulsion gel in the dynamic sensorial perception by using TDS and TCATA methods considering overall liking. After the dynamic sensory characterization tasks, consumers rated their liking using a 9-point hedonic scale. The findings showed that fat and salt reduction, and the addition of emulsion gels as fat replacers affected the sensory characteristics of the Bologna sausages. Regarding the methods, both studies collected the variations between samples with a great correlation between data. The TDS and TCATA curves revealed that texture attributes (firm and soft) were dominant at the beginning of the evaluation for all samples. TCATA also showed that juicy was dominant in the first 15 s of eating period. Related to overall liking, control sample (2% salt and 20% pork back fat) presented the highest scores (7.25 for TDS and 7.24 for TCATA) and Bolognas sausages with emulsion gels and reduced in salt were less accepted (4.95 for TDS and 5.86 for TCATA). Bologna flavor was the major attribute related to liking and fat flavor the main driver of disliking. Results from the present work suggest that dynamic sensorial methods are effective tools to characterize reformulated meat products. Product-related sensory and non-sensory cues have been studied in the past to understand purchase behavior among consumers. However, there has been little research related to integrating emotional responses with such cues to achieve better prediction of consumer purchase behavior. This study aimed to determine the impacts of sensory attribute intensities (SAI), non-sensory factors (NSF), and emotions on purchase intent and consumer choice. Emotional responses were measured using a self-reported emotion questionnaire (EQ), facial expression analysis (FE), and autonomic nervous system responses (ANS). Sixty-nine adults were asked to view product labels, and look at, smell, and drink five commercially-available vegetable juice samples. For each sample, SAI, NSF, EQ, FE, ANS, and purchase intent ratings were measured. Participants were also asked to select the one they would be most likely to buy. Results showed that the five samples differed significantly with respect to SAI, NSF, and emotional responses measured by EQ and FEs. SAI (bitterness intensity) and NSF (brand liking) played an extremely important role in purchase-related behavior of vegetable juice products. Correlation analysis and a PLSR prediction model further revealed that products with higher ratings of purchase intent elicited lower levels of negative emotions and higher levels of positive emotions, as measured by EQ as well as FE. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/importazole.html In conclusion, this study shows that NSF in combination with SAI and emotions measured using EQ and FE can modulate consumer purchase intent toward vegetable juice products under informed tasting conditions. This work examines the effect of HPP at 200 MPa/25 °C/1 min (HPP-200) as pretreatment on whole-peeled orange fruits from ordinary 'Navel' and red-fleshed 'Cara Cara' sweet oranges before juicing with the aim to improve the extractability of carotenoids, flavonoids, vitamin C and hydrophilic antioxidant activity in the juices. Untreated and HPP-200 juices were subsequently processed at 400 MPa/40 °C/1 min (HPP-400 and HPP-200-400). HPP-200 and HPP-200-400 increased the concentration of hesperidin (25% and 16%), narirutin (27% and 9%), phytoene (40% and 97%) and phytofluene (9- and 12-fold) in Navel-juice and maintained the vitamin C content and the antioxidant activity compared to untreated freshly-prepared juice. However, these two HPP treatments in Cara Cara-juices preserved flavonoids and vitamin C concentration but decreased 16% total carotenoid content mainly lycopene due to its more exposed position in the food matrix. However, a single HPP-400 treatment applied on freshly-prepared orange juices reduced bioactive compounds, mainly in Navel-juices, perhaps due to the mechanical juicing procedure (jar-blender) used or/and with the pressure-induced activation of detrimental food enzymes.
