Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) analysis was performed to select important differential VOCs during black garlic processing. A multi-channels nanocomposite CSA assembled with two porous metal-organic frameworks was then developed to characterize flavor profiles changes during black garlic processing, and garlic samples during processing could be divided into five clusters, consistent with VOCs analysis. Artificial neural network (ANN) model outperformed other pattern recognition methods in discriminating processing stages. Furthermore, SVR model for odor sensory scores with the correlation coefficient for prediction set of 0.8919 exhibited a better performance than PLS model, indicating a preferable prediction ability for odor quality. This work demonstrated that the nanocomposite CSA combining appropriate chemometrics can offer an effective tool for objectively and rapidly characterizing flavor quality of black garlic or other food matrixes.
