After thermal treatment, quail eggs pruduce an attractive flavor that is favored by consumers. In this study, the key aroma volatiles and their lipid precursors during thermal treatment were investigated by the electronic nose, GC-MS, GC-O-MS and UPLC-Q-Exactive HF-X. The results exhibited that the raw and fresh flavor of raw egg yolks came from 1-Octen-3-ol, 2-Ethyl-1-hexanol, 1-Decene, and 1-Undecene. 2-Methyl-3-octanone, Toluene, and some aromatic compounds worked synergistically to contribute to the aroma profile of boiled eggs. (+)-2-Bornanone, Octanal, 2-Methyl-butanal, Nonanal, (.+Dihydro-3-hydroxy-4,4-dimethyl-2(3 H)-furanone, 6,7-Dihydro-2,5-dimethyl-5 H-cyclopentapyrazine, (E)-2-methyl-6-(1-propenyl)-pyrazine, 2-Ethyl-3,5-dimethyl-pyrazine, 3,5-Diethyl-2-methyl-pyrazine, 2,5-Dimethyl-pyrazine were the key flavor compounds in the fried egg and gave it the popcorn and roasted flavors. The statistical analysis of the lipid profile revealed that brief, high-temperature heating (100 or 200 °C for 10 min) in typical boiled and fried quail eggs had minor effects on the lipid nutritional value. PE-related lipids, particularly those containing 18-carbon fatty acids, contributed to the aroma formation of fried quail eggs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
