<p>Despite the fact that mankind has been drinking tea for more than 5000 years, its chemical composition has been studied only in recent decades. These studies are primarily carried out using chromatographic methods. This review summarizes the latest information regarding the chemical composition of different tea grades by different chromatographic methods, which has not previously been reviewed in the same scope. Over the last 40 years, the qualitative and quantitative analyses of high volatile compounds were determined by GC and GC/MS. The main components responsible for aroma of green and black tea were revealed, and the low volatile compounds basically were determined by HPLC and LC/MS methods. Most studies focusing on the determination of catechins and caffeine in various teas (green, oolong, black and pu-erh) involved HPLC analysis.</p> <p>Knowledge of tea chemical composition helps in assessing its quality on the one hand, and helps to monitor and manage its growing, processing, and storage conditions on the other. In particular, this knowledge has enabled to establish the relationships between the chemical composition of tea and its properties by identifying the tea constituents which determine its aroma and taste. Therefore, assessment of tea quality does not only rely on subjective organoleptic evaluation, but also on objective physical and chemical methods, with extra determination of tea components most beneficial to human health. With this knowledge, the nutritional value of tea may be increased, and tea quality improved by providing via optimization of the growing, processing, and storage conditions.</p>

Sample Time

Aerobic, microaerophilic, coliform, and mold populations of Botrytis cinerea -inoculated strawberry fruit not exposed (control) or exposed to low and high quantities of four volatile compounds during storage at 2°C were determined after storage for 7 days and after removal of the volatile and transfer to 22°C for 3 days. Fruit harvested at the ripe stage were inoculated with 106 conidia B. cinerea per ml and were placed in plastic containers containing no volatile compound (control) or two quantities of (E)-2-hexenal (10 or 100 μl), (E)-2-hexenal diethyl acetal (30 or 300 μl), benzaldehyde (30 or 300 μl), or methyl benzoate (12 or 60 μl). The fruit containers were overwrapped with a low-density polyethylene film, sealed, stored at 2°C for 7 days, and then transferred to 22°C for 3 days. Aerobic, microaerophilic, and coliform populations of fruit exposed to volatile compounds tended to be lower than the Controls after storage at 2°C for 7 days and, depending on the volatile compound, similar, lower, or higher than the Controls after transfer and storage at 22°C. However, due to variability in initial aerobic, microaerophilic, and coliform populations of the fruit used in the different trials (P &lt; 0.05), none of the differences between control and treatment and between treatments within a sample time were significant (P &gt; 0.05). Strawberry fruit exposed to 100 μl of (E)-2-hexenal was the only treatment that did not show a significant increase in mold populations after transfer and storage at 22°C for 3 days. Additional studies are needed to determine if (E)-2-hexenal can be used in combination with other postharvest storage conditions, such as low temperature and controlled/modified atmosphere, to delay mold spoilage and extend the shelf life of the strawberry.

Flavor is an important aspect of both traditional as well as functional food acceptability and can be favorable or unfavorable depending on the chemical nature of the volatile compounds present, their potency, and the presence of non-volatile components. Lipid, as a major food component, contributes to the food flavor formation via both interactions with other components and/or due to its own degradation during food processing, cooking, and storage. This is particularly important when dealing with functional foods that may contain a high proportion of highly unsaturated oils. Lipid may be involved in the Strecker degradation and Maillard reaction, which occurs during food processing, and as a result, it forms a myriad of volatile compounds. Lipoxygenases and autoxidation of unsaturated fatty acids also play an important role in the development of volatile compounds as well as the storage conditions of oils under display lights in the supermarkets, if kept in clear bottles. In this contribution, a cursory account of the role of lipids in flavor formation is provided.

Abstract Although longleaf pine (Pinus palustris Mill.) seeds are considered the most susceptible of the southern pines to damage during collection, processing, and storage, results of these studies show that high seed quality can be assured for periods up to 20 yr through proper handling and storing techniques. Recommendations for long-term storage include drying seeds to moisture contents of 10% or less and storing at subfreezing temperatures, preferably near 0°F. Reevaluation of stratification treatments applied under operational conditions indicates that the soaking in water that is necessary for seed imbibition reduces total germination in an amount proportional to the length of the soak. Stratification is not recommended except under very controlled conditions. South. J. Appl. For. 17(4):174-179.
