Method for improving flavor of chlorophyll synthesis defective chlorella pyrenoidosa mutant
By combining enzymatic hydrolysis, fermentation with compound microorganisms, and β-cyclodextrin encapsulation, the aldehydes and alcohols of the chlorophyll-deficient protein-nucleated Chlorella mutant are decomposed and masked, solving the problems of bitterness and fishiness, and improving the flavor and storage stability of the product.

AI Technical Summary
When chlorophyll synthesis-deficient Chlorella proteolytic mutants are made into algae powder or protein products, their flavor characteristics are characterized by enhanced bitterness, fishy smell, or off-flavor. Existing technologies have failed to effectively improve this problem.
The process employs a combination of enzymatic hydrolysis, fermentation with complex microbial strains, and β-cyclodextrin encapsulation. Aldehyde dehydrogenase and alcohol oxidase decompose aldehydes and alcohols to break down flavor compounds, lactic acid bacteria neutralize bitter peptides, yeast generates natural aromas, and β-cyclodextrin encapsulates residual small molecules to synergistically improve flavor.
It significantly improved the flavor of the chlorophyll synthesis-deficient Chlorella mutant protein nucleus, and enhanced the product's storage stability and sensory quality.
