Health

One of a group of nonenzymatic reactions in which aldehydes, ketones, or reducing sugars react with amino acids, peptides, or proteins. Food browning reactions, such as those that occur with cooking of meats, and also food deterioration reactions, resulting in decreased nutritional value and color changes, are attributed to this reaction type. The Maillard reaction is studied by scientists in the agriculture, food, nutrition, and carbohydrate chemistry fields. (references)

Specialty Definition: Maillard Reaction

(From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia)

In the presence of amino acid and a reducing sugar, the Maillard Reaction occurs. This is related to carmelization. The reactive carbonyl group of the sugar interacts with the nucleophilic amino group of the amino acid, and interesting, poorly characterized odor and flavor molecules result. This reaction made way for the flavoring industry, since the type of amino acid determines the resulting flavor.
