Piombino, Paola published the artcileOrthonasal vs. retronasal: Studying how volatiles’ hydrophobicity and matrix composition modulate the release of wine odorants in simulated conditions, Synthetic Route of 505-10-2, the main research area is wine orthonasal retronasal olfaction odorant hydrophobicity; Hydrophobicity; Residual sugars; Retronasal Aroma Simulator; Saliva; Volatiles; Wine.

In this study a Retronasal Aroma Simulator was employed to compare the release of volatiles from two different white wine matrixes (TW: table, SW: sweet) with and without the addition of human or artificial saliva to simulate retronasal and orthonasal conditions, resp. The headspace volatiles were isolated by Solid Phase Microextraction under dynamic conditions and identified and quantified by Gas-Chromatog. analyses. Compared to the orthonasal, the retronasal conditions modified the release of odorants from both wines and the observed trends cannot be ascribed only to dilution consequent to saliva addition The relative amounts of volatiles belonging to different chem. classes were modified in the presence of saliva with possible sensory implications concerning some fruity (esters), oxidative (furans) and varietal (linalool, vitispirane) odorants. Regression analyses show that the impact of saliva depends on the volatile (concentration and hydrophobicity) and the non-volatile (residual sugars) composition of the wine. The highly significant linear models (TW: R2 = 0.988; SW: R2 = 0.993) indicate that the release of volatiles is logP octanol/water dependent in both the wines but the slopes change with matrix composition This suggest that in the presence of human saliva the release of odorants with similar hydrophobicity vary as a linear function of their initial headspace concentration above the wine and is modulated by the composition of the wine matrix. Differences between artificial and human saliva confirmed that the retronasal release of wine odorants is affected by the whole salivary composition and suggest that salivary components different from mucin and α-amylase are involved in the retention of the most hydrophobic volatiles as well as in the metabolization of some aromas.
