Abstract

It is imperative to unravel the dynamic variation of volatile components of vine tea during processing to provide guidance for tea quality evaluation. In this study, the dynamic changes of volatile compounds of vine tea during processing were characterized by GC-IMS and HS-SPME/GC-MS. As a result, 103 volatile compounds were characterized by the two technologies with three overlapped ones. The random forest approach was employed to develop the models and explore key volatile compounds. 23 key compounds were explored, among which 13 were derived from GC-IMS and ten were from HS-SPME/GC-MS. Moreover, the area under the receiver operating characteristics curve with 100 cross validations by the pair-wised models were all 1 for the established models. Furthermore, the primary aroma formation mechanism for the key volatile compounds were mainly involved in fatty acid and amino acid metabolism. Besides, this study provides a theoretical support for directed processing and quality control of vine tea.
