General Information

General Information Comment Organism
additional information identification of potent odorants in oolong tea, overview Camellia sinensis
physiological function aroma of oolong tea does not result from hydrolysis of glycosidically bound volatiles (GBVs) by beta-primeverosidase. beta-Primeverosidase is located in the leaf cell wall. The cell wall remains intact during the enzyme-active manufacturing process. After the leaf cell disruption, GBV content is reduced. These findings reveal that, during the enzyme-active process of oolong tea, nondisruption of the leaf cell walls results in impossibility of interaction of GBVs and beta-glycosidases. Indole, jasmine lactone, and trans-nerolidol are characteristic volatiles produced from the manufacturing process. Interestingly, the contents of the three volatiles is reduced after the leaf cell disruption, suggesting that mechanical damage via the cell disruption, which is similar to black tea manufacturing, does not induce accumulation of the three volatiles. In addition, 11 volatiles with flavor dilution factor 4 and above are identified as relatively potent odorants in the oolong tea. These results suggest that enzymatic hydrolysis of GBVs is not involved in the formation of volatiles of oolong tea, and some characteristic volatiles with potent odorants are produced from the manufacturing process Camellia sinensis
