摘要:
A flavor composition comprising at least one peptide that activates or increases the activity of a calcium-sensing receptor that can be used to enhance the kokumi taste and/or palatability of pet food products is described herein. Also disclosed herein are methods for identifying said peptides.
摘要:
A flavour composition is provided. The composition includes a characterizing flavour and a taste modifying composition. The taste modifying composition includes at least four non-polar amino acids and at least one polar amino acid. The at least four non-polar amino acids are present in equal molar/equimolar concentrations and are preferably selected from the group consisting of glycine, alanine, valine, proline, leucine, isoleucine, methionine, phenylalanine, tryptophan and mixtures thereof. The one polar amino acid is preferably selected from the group consisting of tyrosine, serine, threonine, cysteine, glutamine, asparagine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, lysine, histidine or arginine, most preferably aspartic acid or glutamic acid. The flavour composition is used to improve the organoleptic properties of a consumable composition, including sweetness, saltiness, umami and/or mouthfeel. Furthermore a consumable is provided that comprises the flavour composition.
摘要:
The invention relates to the novel specific composition of umami and kokumi taste or flavour enhancer comprising: (i) one or more yeast extracts and/or hydrolyzed vegetable protein as a source of natural glutamic acid; (ii) one or more yeast extracts as a source of natural 5'-ribonucleotides; (iii) glutathione; or yeast extract as a source of natural glutathione; (iv) nutritionally acceptable calcium or magnesium salt, or their combination with weight ratio within 10:1 to 1:5; and optionally, sodium chloride and one or more auxiliary food ingredient that provides final form of the composition suitable for practical use as cubes, powder, granules, paste, suspension, emulsion, or solution. The composition of the present invention acts as efficient umami and kokumi taste enhancer suitable for use as either table-top seasoning or as flavour enhancer in various food products.
摘要:
A flavor composition comprising a peptide which comprises pyroglutamic acid or γ-glutamic acid, a second amino acid and optionally a third amino acid. The peptides can be added to a food product to increase saltiness, umami, bitterness, astringency or sourness intensity.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an amino acid seasoning composition which comprises L-glutamic acid and basic amino acids, and which has a pH level of 6.5 to 8.0 when in the form of an aqueous solution. The seasoning composition of the present invention is a complex seasoning composition that comprises L-glutamic acid, which is an amino acid, as a basic component, and basic amino acids which are combined with the L-glutamic acid so as to form a complex seasoning component having improved pleasantness and a salty taste. The pH level of the composite of L-glutamic acid and basic amino acids is finely adjusted to a predetermined range, thereby providing a complex amino acid seasoning having superior pleasantness.

In one aspect, the disclosure relates to sweetener and/or umami compositions, methods of making same, products comprising same, and methods of improving mouthfeel in a product, e.g., a savory or umami food or beverage. In various aspects, the disclosed compositions comprise a sweetening agent and/or an umami agent and a taste modulator component. In various aspects, the disclosed sweetener compositions comprise a sweetening agent and a taste modulator component. In further aspects, the disclosed savory compositions comprise an umami agent and a taste modulator component. In further aspects, the disclosed taste modulator composition can further comprise an additional CaSR modulator. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present disclosure.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for producing a flavour composition comprising free glutamate, said method comprises providing wheat gluten and contacting the wheat gluten with a protease, with an exopeptidase and with a glutaminase to produce the flavour composition comprising free glutamate.
摘要:
The invention relates to a sweetener/sweetness enhancer, comprising at least one component selected from the group consisting of maltol and a maltol derivative; an ester; and at least one component selected from the group consisting of a plant extract and a lactone. In some embodiments, the composition includes additionally a bitter blocking agent or at least two amino acids or a carbonyl compound or sodium choloride or trehalose.
