A headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) method is proposed for analyzing the main volatile components from a sensory standpoint (furfural, oak lactones, eugenol, vanillin, and syringaldehyde) present in nontoasted and toasted oak wood of different origins. To maximize the yield of compounds extracted from wood chips and to obtain a good precision of the method, the most important variables affecting HS-SPME have been studied. The best results were obtained when the sample was heated at 70 degrees C and the headspace extracted for 40 min with a DVB/CAR/PDMS fiber, which gave the overall best recovery. The values for the repeatability ranged from 6.4 to 7.8%, and those for the reproducibility from 5.4 to 8.7%. The precision of the results obtained makes the proposed technique appropriate for its use in characterizing oak wood samples of different origins and in the selection of the most suitable oak wood to age wines and spirits, on the basis of the chemical composition of the wood samples.
The effect of isoflavone on soy milk and tofu astringency was investigated, and no consistency was found between an undesirable astringent taste and isoflavone contents. Isoflavone-enriched extract (approximately 39% isoflavones) showed no astringency. Soybean foods having high amounts of isoflavones showed less astringency. About 80% of isoflavones exist freely in both soy milk and tofu, but 55% of phytates (which play an important role in the formation of the tofu curd network) exist freely in the soy milk, and 6-13%, on the basis of coagulation, existed freely in the tofu curds. A 1% potassium phytate solution at pH 7 showed the very same astringency as soy milk; however, calcium phytate at the same concentration and pH showed no undesirable sensation. Thus, it is assumed that the astringent characteristics caused by phytic ions in soy milk are lost upon conversion of phytic ions to their insoluble salt forms during soy milk coagulation.
