Abstract

The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is effective in reducing the fishy malodor of sea products. However, the biotransformation pathways are still unclear. The seaweed B. fusco-purpurea was taken as an example to investigate the chemical transformation pathways for the deodorization process with S. cerevisiae fermentation. Sensory evaluation, GC-MS, GC-MS-O and odor activity value (OAV) analyses showed the fishy odorants were 1-octen-3-ol, (E)-2-nonenal, 2,4-decadienal, 2-pentylfuran, 2-octen-1-ol and nonanal. The removal of fishy malodor was related to the reactions of reduction, dehydrogenation, deformylation-oxygenation and ester syntheses via catalysis of aldehyde dehydrogenase, alcohol dehydrogenases, epoxide hydrolase, aldehyde deformylating-oxygenase, enone reductase, oxidases, dehydrogenases, aldo-keto reductases, ester synthase and acyltransferase. Interestingly, for the first time, it was found that 3,5-octadien-2-one transformed to 6-octen-2-one; and 2-pentylfuran transformed to o-cymene and hexyl acetate. Our findings enrich the knowledge for the removal of fishy malodor from sea products such as seaweeds.
