AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing methods for masking bean odors in processed foods, pharmaceuticals, or quasi-drugs using bean-derived proteins are not effective for all types of beans and often require multiple components.

Method used

A bean smell masking agent composed of specific compounds from groups A to F, which include 1,4-cineol, γ-heptalactone, and other odorants, effectively masks the bean odor by targeting major odorants such as hexanal and (E,E)-2,4-decadienal.

Benefits of technology

The masking agent significantly reduces or eliminates bean odor in compositions containing legume proteins, regardless of the bean type, and maintains its effectiveness even after treatments like heating or storage.

Abstract

To suppress odor derived from beans recognized when prepared processed foods, medicines or quasi drugs using bean-derived protein.SOLUTION: At least one type of compound selected from groups consisting of A to F is used as a bean odor masking agent derived from legume protein; (Group A) 1,4-cineole, γ-heptalactone, 6-methyl-5-hepten-2-one, menthyl lactate, and rose oxide, (Group B) 1,4-cineole, γ-heptalactone, menthyl lactate, ethyl lactate, γ-hexalactone, acetaldehyde diethyl acetal, and methyl salicylate, (Group C) ethyl acetoacetate, isobutyric maltol, and diethyl malonate, (Group D) methyl jasmonate, dihydrojasmonate methyl, heliotropin, ethyl pyruvate, butyryl butyric acid, stearic acid, and γ-butyrolactone, (Group E) ethyl lactate, 2-butanone, and nerol, (Group F) furfural, methyl salicylate, and 5(6)-decenoic acid.SELECTED DRAWING: None
