Synthesis and Sensory Characterization of Novel Umami-Tasting Glutamate Glycoconjugates
摘要:
Two glycoconjugates of glutamic acid, namely, the N-glycoside dipotassiurn N-(D-glucos-1-yl)-L-glutamate (1) and the corresponding Amadori compound N-(1-deoxy-D-fructos-1-yl)-L-glutamic acid (2), have been synthesized in yields of 35 and 52%, respectively, using new Maillard-mimetic approaches, and their chemical structures have unequivocally been elucidated by 1D- and 2D-NMR and MS experiments. Systematic sensory studies revealed that both glycoconjugates exhibit pronounced umami-like taste with recognition taste thresholds of 1-2 mmol/L, close to that of monosodium glutamate (MSG). Contrary to an aqueous solution of MSG, 1 does not show the sweetish and slightly soapy by-note, but evokes an intense umami taste. Aqueous solutions of 2 were described by the descriptors umami, seasoning, and bouillon-like. Added to a bouillon base, which did not contain any taste enhancers, both glycoconjugates imparted a distinct umami character similar to the control sample containing the same amount of MSG on a molar basis. To the best of our knowledge, these types of glycoconjugates in general and, in particular, N-glucosyl glutamate and N-deoxyfructosyl glutamate have never been reported as taste active compounds having umami-like properties. Therefore, 1 and 2 represent a new class of umami-type taste compounds showing properties similar to the umami reference compound MSG. Systematic (13)C NMR measurements revealed that 1 was fairly stable in aqueous solutions under alkaline conditions (pH 8-10) as well as in dry form. However, it rapidly hydrolyzes in neutral and acidic solutions, giving rise to glucose and glutamate. In contrast, glycoconjugate 2 was observed to be rather stable in aqueous solution as well as in the presence of human saliva.

acid, namely, N-(β-d-deoxyfructos-1-yl)-l-glutamic acid, was successfully synthesized as the primary isomer in a yield of 96.08% using a food-grade preparation method, and its chemical structure was clearly demonstrated by mass spectrometry and 1D/2D NMR. The reaction kinetics of glucose and glutamic acid were systematically studied to investigate the effect of lyophilization and thermal treatment on

The industrial transformation of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) produces processed foods, such as dried tomatoes. In this study two varieties (SaAb and PerBruzzo), grown in three cropping systems (one conventional and two organic ones), were processed by two types of small-scale drying (oven or sun drying), over two years of production. The dried samples were analyzed for their non-volatile and volatile composition, relating the results with sensory analysis. The multivariate analysis performed on collected data allowed a detailed comparison of the effects of processing, year-to year variation and cropping systems. Results indicated that drying methods mainly influenced the composition and flavor profile, also affected by the production year. The cropping system significantly influenced some quality indices, such as the acid and sugar amounts, and the aldehydes, respectively higher and lower in organic samples. The comprehensive PCA analysis allowed discrimination of drying methods and, to a lesser extent, cropping systems.
Metabolic Profiling Approach To Explore Compounds Related to the Umami Intensity of Soy Sauce
A metabolic profiling approach was employed to explore the compounds that affect the intensity of umami taste in soy sauce. Twenty-five kinds of soy sauces were analyzed using GC-MS and LC-MS, wherein measurement data for 427 compounds were obtained. The umami taste intensity of each soy sauce sample was also quantitated by sensory evaluation and a projection to latent structure (PLS) regression analysis was conducted using the compounds' measurements and umami taste intensity data. Variable importance for the projection (VIP) value obtained via PLS was used for the estimation of the relevance for umami taste intensity. N-(1-Deoxyfructos-1-yl)glutamic acid (Fru-Glu) had the highest VIP value, and addition of Fru-Glu to soy sauce increased umami taste intensity better than glutamic acid at the same concentration as confirmed by sensory evaluation. This study showed that the combination of metabolic profiling approach and sensory evaluation can be used effectively to determine compounds related to taste.
