| Abstract: | "Spreading is an indispensable process in the aroma formation of green tea. The application of exogenous red-light spreading in tea processing has been verified to significantly improve the aroma of green tea, and endow tea with freshness, sweet flavor, and mellow taste. However, there were no previous studies investigating the effects of spreading with different red-light intensities on the aroma components of green tea. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of the relationship between the aroma component and spreading with different red-light intensities (300 mumol?O+m(-2)?O+s(-1), 150 mumol?O+m(-2)?O+s(-1) and 75 mumol?O+m(-2)?O+s(-1)). As a result, a total of ninety-one volatile components were identified in this study. The orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) model clearly distinguished the volatile components of green tea between different red-light intensities and obtained thirty-three differential volatile compounds. Combined with odor activity value (OAV > 1) analysis revealed that eleven volatile components were the key volatile compounds of green tea under different light conditions. Among them, 3-methyl-butanal, (E)-nerolidol, and linalool were the sources of chestnut-like aroma in green tea and were significantly accumulated under medium (MRL) and low intensity (LRL) red light. The results of the present study provided a theoretical basis that could guide green tea processing with red-light intensities to increase the aroma quality components of green tea" |
