Abstract: In order to explore the rapid method of aroma discrimination of pepper cultivars with geographical indications in Guizhou, the flavor of three pepper cultivars with geographical indications ('Dafang zhoujiao' 'Huangping xianjiao' 'Huangyang xiaomila') and check cultivar of 'Qianjiao No.8' in four planting areas (Dafang county, Huangping county, Suiyang county and Huaxi district) were analyzed by electronic nose. The results showed that the electronic nose combined with Principal Component Analysis (PCA) could not completely distinguish the flavor of different pepper samples. The flavor of the same cultivar in geographical indication area and non geographical indication area was different, for example, the flavor of 'Dafang zhoujiao' in the geographical indication area and the non geographical indication area was obviously different and could be well distinguished, but the flavor of 'Huangping xianjiao' could not be completely distinguished, and the flavor of 'Huangyang xiaomila' was completely unable to be distinguished at all.According to the analysis of sensor contribution rate, W1W, W2W, W1S and W2S sensors played a major role in the
origin differentiation of pepper which was namely that inorganic sulfides, organic sulfides, methyl compounds, alcohols,
aldehydes and ketones had more contribution. |
