title: Influence of rearing conditions on the volatile compounds of cooked fillets of Silurus glanis (European catfish).
abstract: Volatile compounds of cooked fillets of Silurus glanis reared under two conditions occurring in France were studied. They were extracted by dynamic headspace, identified by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry, and quantified by gas chromatography-flame ionization detection. Odor active volatile compounds were characterized by gas chromatography-olfactometry. Sixty volatile compounds were detected in dynamic headspace extracts, among which 33 were odor active. Rearing conditions affected their estimated concentrations and their odor intensities, but very few qualitative differences were exhibited (only seven volatile compounds were concerned). A good correlation between quantitative and olfactometric results is shown. 2-Methylisoborneol and (E)-2-hexenal were less represented in OUTDOOR extracts, while 2-butanone was less represented in INDOOR extracts. In addition, olfactometric results can be closely related to those previously obtained by sensory analysis. Boiled potato sensory odor of the silurus cooked fillets can be related to (Z)-4-heptenal and methional, and buttery odor can be related to 2,3-butanedione, an unknown compound (RI = 1010), and 2,3-pentadione.
