Abstract

The flavor compounds generated from the reaction of dipeptides with glucose at 180 °C and a pH range of 5.3-5.5 derived mainly from two pathways: (1) the reaction of dipeptides with glucose degradation products to form pyrazinones or (2) the reaction of amino acids derived from peptide bond hydrolysis with glucose degradation products to form aldehydes via Strecker degradation.
