Abstract:
The aim of this study is to provide a new perspective on the development of masking agents by examining the application of their time-series sensory profiles. The analysis of the relationship between 14 time-intensity (TI) parameters and the beany flavor masking ability of 100 flavoring materials indicate that the values of AreaInc, DurDec, and AreaDec, TI parameters related to the flavor release in the increasing and decreasing phases, were significantly higher in the top 10 masking score materials than in the bottom 10 materials. In addition to individual analysis, machine learning analysis, which can derive complex rules from large amounts of data, was performed. Machine learning-based principal component analysis and cluster analysis of the flavoring materials presented AreaInc and AreaDec as TI parameters contributing to the classification of flavor materials and their masking ability. AreaDec was suggested to be particularly important for the beany flavor masking in the two different analyses: an effective masking can be achieved by focusing on the TI profiles of flavor materials. This study proposed that time-series profiles, which are mainly used for the understanding of the sensory characteristics of foods, can be applied to the development of masking agents.
