Two different yogurts, control and probiotic with Bifidobacterium BB-12 were produced and analyzed for their contents of total solids, proteins, pH, counts of probiotic bacteria, and volatile composition during refrigerated storage for 28 days. The response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the extraction of volatile compounds from the probiotic yogurt containing through HS-SPME combined with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). Post-acidification and decrease in protein content were noted in both yogurts during storage. The results showed that the extraction temperature and the addition of salt were statistically the most influential factors for the extraction of higher amounts of volatile compounds. The volatile compounds detected in the probiotic yogurt were 2-butanone, 2,3-butanedione, 2,3-pentanodione, acetone and hexanoic acid. During the 28 days of storage, the only differences noted were between the amounts of 2,3-butanedione, 2,3-pentanodione and hexanoic acid.

A method based on solid phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography mass spectrometry was developed for volatile profiling fermented perilla leaves jiaosu (PFJ) during fermentation. Five fibers were firstly evaluated by the total peak areas and the number of volatile compounds. Secondly, a Plackett-Burman design was applied to screen for seven independent variables selected in literature. Three significant variables (extraction time, extraction temperature and equilibrium time) were therefore selected for the following optimization studies. A Box-Behnken design combined with a steepest ascent was then used to optimize the significant factors. Under optimal conditions, the changes of volatile profiles of PFJ at 7, 14, 21, 28, 91 and 140 d were analyzed. A total of fifty-one volatile compounds were identified, and alcohols (68.12–78.94%) were the main volatile components in PFJ, followed by methoxy-phenolic compounds (4.67–5.48%). Perilla alcohol and trans-Shisool were the major constituents during spontaneous fermentation, which accounted for 16.14–30.66% and 19.95–24.52%, respectively. The results showed that PFJ fermented into a health probiotic product with characteristic flavour and functional volatile compounds.

Gas chromatography-olfactometry/mass spectrometry coupled with headspace-solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME/GC-O/MS) was applied for the characterization of volatile compounds in Tom Yum soup and its individual ingredients. Using HS-SPME with a 50/30 µm DVB/CAR/PDMS fiber and an extraction temperature of 40 °C for 50 min along with an HP-5MS capillary column, 101 peaks in the HS-SPME/GC-MS chromatogram of Tom Yum soup were detected, and 96 compounds were identified including alcohols, aldehydes, esters, ethers, and terpenes. These findings are based on the comparison of MS spectra with the NIST library as well as experimental and literature retention index data. In comparison with the compound profiles of each individual ingredient of Tom Yum soup (both before and after cooking), five extra volatile compounds in Tom Yum soup were found after the cooking process. Furthermore, odor descriptions of the eighteen aroma compounds in Tom Yum soup, along with the odor ingredient sources, were also obtained.
