TLDR
The ripening of blue and Roqueforts cheeses is accomplished by the concerted and controlled actions of enzymes of the mold Penicillium roqueforti, and the properties and effects of the enzymes involved in flavor development are reviewed.
Abstract
The ripening of blue and Roquefort cheeses is accomplished by the concerted and controlled actions of enzymes of the mold Penicillium roqueforti. The properties and effects of the enzymes involved in flavor development (i.e., proteases, lipase and beta-ketoacid decarboxylase) are reviewed. The metabolic activities of both spores and mycelia of P. roqueforti in relation to fatty acid metabolism and flavor generation are discussed. The chemical composition of blue cheese flavor and the simulation of this flavor by fermentation and formulation are briefly surveyed. Some nutritional aspects of blue cheese are cited.

Volatile Flavor Compounds Produced by Molds of Aspergillus, Penicillium, and Fungi imperfecti

TL;DR: Among the volatiles produced by molds, 1-octen-3-ol yielding a characteristic fungal odor was found predominant and represented 67 to 97% of all the vol atiles occurring in the concentrated distillate.

Preliminary report on tyramine headache.

E. Hannington
- 27 May 1967 - 
TL;DR: In the present case the pituitary, thyroid, and gastric changes may be explained by the onset of autoimmune reactions to these three glands, and anterior hypophysitis of possible autoimmune origin is added to the list of aetiological factors causing hypopituitarism.
