Abstract:
The aroma of the fermented milk produced by twenty-eight Lactobacillus delbrueckii subsp. bulgaricus strains was evaluated via quantitative descriptive analysis. According to the sensory analysis results, the fermented milks were grouped into milky-type, cheesy-type, fermented-type and miscellaneous-type. The representative samples of cheese-type and fermented-type were analyzed by headspace-gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry (HS-GC-IMS) and flavoromics. A total of 95 volatile compounds were identified and particularly, 12 aroma-active compounds were detected by using gas chromatography-olfactometry-mass spectrometry (GC-O-MS). Among the different aroma types, 2,3-butanedione, δ-decalactone, acetaldehyde, butanoic acid, acetic acid and hexanoic acid were finally screened out as the key aroma-active compounds by quantitative and odor activity value (OAV) analysis combined with aroma recombination, omission and addition experiments. These findings were valuable in developing specific fermented milk products with different aroma profiles.
