Biofilm formation in the production of fermented vegetable might impact its quality and safety. In this study, physicochem. and microbial properties, volatile and aroma-active compounds between PRPs without biofilm (NPRP) and with biofilm (FPRP) were investigated by gas chromatog.-mass spectrometry, gas chromatog.-olfactometry, aroma extract dilution anal., and spiking tests. The pH and titratable acidity were 3.66 ± 0.00 and 0.47 ± 0.08 g/100 g lactic acid in NPRP and 3.48 ± 0.01 and 0.87 ± 0.10 g/100 g lactic acid in FPRP, resp. The nitrite level of the two PRPs was 1.87-1.92 mg kg-1, which was below the limited value (20 mg kg-1) of fermented vegetables regulated by the GB2760-2017. FPRP had relatively higher microbial and yeast numbers than NPRP, three common pathogens, namely, Salmonella spp., Staphylococcus aureus, and Shigella spp. were not detected. A total of 70 and 151 aroma compounds were detected in NPRP and FPRP, resp., including 13 classes of compounds The dominant aroma attributes of FPRP were sour, floral, mushroom-like, green, and smoky, while NPRP exhibits a mushroom-like flavor. Acetic acid, ethanol, α-terpineol, (E)-2-nonenal, 2-heptanol, phenylethyl alc., and linalool were potent key aroma-active compounds in NPRP and FPRP. Results of spiking tests showed that the addition of each substance not only increased its own odor, but also had significant effects on other smells. FPRP displayed richer varieties and contents of aroma profile than NPRP. However, some compounds, such as 4-ethylguaiacol and 4-vinylguaiacol, which were only detected in FPRP, had neg. roles on the aroma attributes.
