Alkenyl resorcinols, namely (Z)-5-nonadec-12/14-enylresorcinol as well as (Z)-5-heneicos-12/14/16-enylresorcinol could be identified as major bitter compounds in wheat bran for the first time. Furthermore, saturated analogues, alkyl resorcinols, which had previously been described to contribute to off-flavour in wheat bran, along with known off-taste compounds fatty acids as well as fatty acid oxidation products were identified to be key contributors to off-taste as well, exhibiting taste threshold between 12 and 981 µmol/kg.
