摘要：Alkylresorcinols (ARs) are important bioactive components in wheat bran which have been used as biomarkers for whole grain wheat consumption. In this study, the impact of ARs on the formation of Nε‐(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), the main component of dietary advanced glycation end products which could induce chronic disease was analyzed. Moreover, the influence of the addition of ARs on the sensory profiles of wheat bread was evaluated. ARs supplementation (0.03%, 0.1%, and 0.3% w/w) could significantly decrease the formation of CML by 21.70%, 35.11%, and 42.18%, respectively, compared with the control. Moreover, ARs‐supplemented bread achieved a higher score in overall acceptability and buttery‐like aroma through sensory evaluation. The volatile compounds in bread supplemented with ARs were characterized by headspace solid phase microextraction‐gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (HS‐SPME‐GC‐MS), among which acetoin, 2,3‐butanedione, 3‐methyl‐1‐butanol, 2‐phenylethanol, and 2‐methylbutanal were confirmed as the main volatile compounds through determination of odor activity value. In addition, ARs supplementation had no negative impact on the chewiness, hardness, and springiness of bread. These findings demonstrated that ARs could be applied as potential food additives to improve the quality and sensory profile of bread.
