In vivo aroma release by APCI-MS and PTR-MS: impact of water content of exhaled air and evidence for competition between aroma compounds
2013
Livre ISBN-13 : 978-3-902811-91-2; International audience; Atmospheric pressure chemical ionization mass spectrometry (APCI-MS) or proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) has been in use frequently for in vivo aroma release studies. In APCI-MS, protonated water clusters formed from moisture in the expired air are used as reagent ions. Yet the influence of a change in relative water content in the ionization gas on the data collected have been rarely studied and conflicting results were obtained. In this context our first objective was to study the impact of water content of the expired air on the level of aroma release measured by APCI-MS and to compare with the results obtained…
Food composition and structure, in-mouth breakdown, oral physiology and sensory perception: example of dairy products
2018
During eating, the first food transformations occur in the mouth and constitute preliminary steps of a series of reactions leading to digestion. Food breakdown occurring in the mouth contributes to the bolus formation and to the release of the stimuli responsible for the global sensory perception. However food breakdown not only depends on food composition and structure but also on human oral physiology, which could explain the high inter-individual differences observed in sensory perception and liking. After a general introduction, the presentation will focus on examples related to dairy products. Dairy products offer a great variability in terms of composition and structure and their liki…
Inter-individual differences in human saliva composition affect the partition of food and beverages aroma compounds
2016
Saliva is the first biological fluid in contact with food during consumption. As such, it might exert an important role on the release of volatile compounds from foods into the oral cavity. Thus, understanding this role could help to explain aroma perception, food preferences and dietary intake in human. To date, most of the studies performed on the field have employed compositionally simple artificial salivas or pools mixing human salivas from different individuals. Nevertheless, the whole complexity of human saliva and the effect of interindividual differences on aroma release remains underexplored. Therefore, there is a need to gain a better understanding of the effect of human saliva co…
Aroma release and chewing activity during eating different model cheeses
2007
International audience; This study focused on the effect cheese properties had on chewing behaviour and aroma release as well as the relationship between them. Chewing activity and the kinetics of aroma release were simultaneously monitored during the consumption of eight model cheeses with the same flavour content. Differences in chewing behaviour explained most of the variability in aroma release among subjects. Aroma release increased with chewing work, bursts’ number and amplitude. For cheese samples, the chewing behaviour varied according to texture. Interaction between cheese composition and the chewing behaviour effects affected aroma release: (i) decreasing fat content increased aro…
Oral processing and matrix composition affect aroma release and particle size distribution after consumption of coffee-creamer emulsions.
2016
International audience; Context and objectives: In humans, the main events that contribute to in-mouth emulsion breakdown are shear forces due to tongue movements and action of saliva. To date, most of the studies on the field were conducted on model emulsions and little is known about creamer emulsion and in particular hot coffee/creamer emulsions. In this context, the objective of the present work is to better understand how human oral physiology may govern the in-mouth breakdown of coffee-creamer beverages with consequence of food bolus structure and aroma release and to focus on saliva role and composition in particular. Methodology: The work was conducted on 7 coffee-creamer matrices d…
Aroma perception in dairy products: the roles of texture, aroma release and consumer physiology. A review
2011
Aroma perception is a determinant factor in food choices and acceptability by consumers. To be perceived, aroma compounds must be released in the mouth during food breakdown, transferred into the nasal cavity to reach the olfactory receptor and then be perceived. So, in order to control aroma perception, knowledge of the main factors that can influence in-mouth aroma release is of major importance. Focusing on dairy products, this review article investigates the factors due to: (i) food products, and mainly the influence of food composition and structure on aroma retention and release; (ii) the inter-individual variability of subjects, mainly chewing behaviour, saliva rate and composition a…
The caramel flavour: impacts of the volatile and the non-volatile fraction on perception
2013
The aim of this thesis was to investigate the impact of the volatile odorant fraction and the non-volatile fraction on the perception of caramel flavour. The first step focused on the analytical characterization of the volatile odorant fraction of caramel using Gas Chromatography coupled to Olfactometry (GC/O), GC/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) and heart-cutting MDGC/MS/O. Results highlighted the presence of more than one hundred compounds and demonstrated the complexity of the caramel volatile fraction. The objective of the second step was to understand the contribution of odorant compounds identified to the caramel aroma typicality. Literature shows that odour intensity is not sufficient to ev…
Dynamics of aroma release during cheese consumption: influence of the physiological state
2014
Studies dealing with food intake usually focus either on in vivo aroma release or on subject physiology and behaviour. However, no approach combining all the parameters is known and the effect of changes in the physiological state (for instance satiation state) has been slightly studied until now. Yet, the evolution of aroma perception during food intake is important because it can modify the consumption behaviour, in particular when the subject is satiated. The objective of this project is to study the dynamics of the evolution of aroma release from model cheese, according to physiological modifications such as satiation attainment. . The present study is a preliminary test led on a small …
Retention/release equilibrium of aroma compounds in fat-free dairy gels
2010
BACKGROUND: The replacement of fat by thickeners in fat-free yoghurts leads to an important modification of aroma compound partitioning, with an impact on aroma perception. Investigation of retention/release equilibria allows a good understanding of aroma compound behaviour depending on food composition. RESULTS: Vapour/liquid equilibria of ten aroma compounds (two esters, two ketones, three aldehydes and three alcohols) in several media were studied to investigate the influence of pectin addition to fat-free dairy gel on the retention/release equilibrium. The partition coefficient of each aroma compound was measured by headspace analysis at equilibrium in six media (pure water, low-methoxy…
