Identification and sensory evaluation of the character-impact compounds of goat cheese flavour
1996
1 SUMMARY The volatile compounds of various goat cheeses have been isolated in order to identify the character-impact odorants by a combination of instrumental analyses and sensory studies. Different extraction procedures have been studied in order to obtain a volatile fraction representative of the cheeses. The most representative extract, as determined by sensory evaluation, has been submitted to GC-MS and to GC-olfactometry, using the aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA) method. The volatile fatty acids have been found to be the most important compounds for the characteristic goat flavour. Among them, branched-chain fatty acids ( e.g. , 4-methyloctanoic and 4-ethyloctanoic) have been f…
Evaluation of taste compounds in water-soluble extract of goat cheeses
2000
Abstract The water-soluble fractions of two goat cheeses — one denomination of origin commercial trade mark (crottin de Chavignol®) and one bought in a local cheese making establishment (Bouton de culotte®) — containing many taste and flavour molecules were studied. Ultrafiltration with a 1000 Da threshold membrane, followed by gel filtration on Toyopearl HW-40S gel using water as eluent, led to the production of edible fractions. Physicochemical and sensory analysis of these fractions showed that the most tasty fractions contained, essentially, the free amino acids and mineral salts. Some of these tasty fractions also imparted some flavours. The quantity of small peptides (MW
Inactivation of lactococcal aromatic aminotransferase prevents the formation of flora aroma compounds from aromatic amino acids in semi-hard cheese
1999
The enzymatic conversion of aromatic amino acids to aroma compounds plays a role in the formation of an undesirable floral aroma in Cheddar-like cheeses. In lactococci, the first step of aromatic amino acid degradation is a transamination, catalysed by an aromatic aminotransferase (AraT). We observed previously that in vitro, araT inactivation prevented degradation of aromatic amino acids and decreased degradation of Met and Leu. In this study we evaluated the effect of araT inactivation in Lactococcus lactis on flavour development in St. Paulin-type cheese. The degradation of amino acids was monitored by using radiolabelled amino acids and the volatile compounds formed were analysed by GC-…
