Abstract
Thirty-seven volatiles were identified by gas chromatography-ion mobility spectrometry in sturgeon caviar. Alkenes (37, 43), alcohols (30, 36), aldehydes (9, 10), and esters (11, 13) were detected by two-dimensional gas chromatography–time-off-flight mass spectrometry in fresh and stored caviar, respectively. Alkenes (humulene, caryophyllene, longifolene, and d-limonene), aldehydes (heptanal, hexanal, pentanal, and 3-methyl butanal), and 2-ethyl-1-hexanol were sniffed and described as providing fresh, fatty, and fishy attributes by gas chromatography-olfactometry. The fungal genera of Apiotrichum, Penicillium, Filobasidium, Gibberella, and Cladosporium and 16 bacterial genera were significantly correlated with variations in the contents of 25 aldehydes and 11 ketones. Nine strains, 20 fatty acids, and 69 differential phospholipids were isolated and profiled. Glycerophosphoethanolamine (20:2/20:4), glycerophosphoethanolamine (22:6/22:5), and glycerophosphocholine (16:0/13:0) were significantly associated with the formation of odorants and the proposed mechanism of flavor formation from phospholipids is summarized. This study represents a foundation for achieving targeted preservation and flavor control of caviar.
