Five pyrazines weresuccessfully identified, 2,5-dimethylpyrazine being the most abundant. Although 2-ethyl-5-methylpyrazine was in lower levels, itpresented the highest odor units, due to its low threshold. RWPS enhanced the formation of the five identified pyrazines (2.1 times),without relevant changes in the proportion between them.The highest increase was observed for 2-ethyl-6-methylpyrazine (3 timeshigher than in control). These results were corroborated by electronic nose analysis, presenting RWPS beef patties higher odorintensities. Mechanisms to explain these effects are also proposed in the present work, and the high content of polyphenols seemsto be the major cause of the observed results.The use of RWPS could improve the flavor characteristics of meat products or enableusing less intense cooking conditions with no changes in the flavor.
