UNLABELLED Although widely used in air quality regulatory frameworks, the term "volatile organic compound" (VOC) is poorly defined. Numerous standardized tests are currently used in regulations to determine VOC content (and thus volatility), but in many cases the tests do not agree with each other, nor do they always accurately represent actual evaporation rates under ambient conditions. The pa...

One hundred and three volatile compounds were detected by solid-phase microextraction followed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry in 30 ripened Serrano dry-cured hams, submitted or not to high pressure processing (HPP) and afterwards held for 5months at 4°C. The effect of ham physicochemical parameters and HPP (600MPa for 6min) on volatile compounds was assessed. Physicochemical parameters...

Volatile compounds play a key role in the formation of the well-recognized and widely appreciated raspberry aroma. Studies on the isolation and identification of volatile compounds in raspberry fruit (Rubus idaeus L.) are reviewed with a focus on aroma-related compounds. A table is drawn up containing a comprehensive list of the volatile compounds identified so far in raspberry along with main ...

Volatile organic compounds in farmed and wild rohu, Labeo rohita, were extracted by Likens-Nickerson concurrent distillation apparatus. The farmed raised rohu of two weight categories designated as FW1 (1001-1200g) and FW2 (501-700g) were procured from the Fish Seed Hatchery, Faisalabad. Concurrently, wild rohu of two weight categories designated as WW1 (1001-1200g) and WW2 (501-700g) were capt...

The volatile constituents of the aerial parts of vervain (Verbena officinalis L.) cultivated locally were investigated. Analysis of the volatile fraction by GC and GC-MS is described. Compounds were identified by various methods, the major compounds being 3-hexen-1-ol (7.28%), 1-octen-3-ol (32.76%), linalool (4.66%), verbenone (20.49%) and geranial (7.22%).

in this study, the relationship among four species of polygonum (including p. hyrcanicum (three samples), p. persicaria, p. avicular, and p. hydropiper) was investigated by gc profiling. furthermore, the major compounds of the ethylic ether extract of p. hyrcanicum were identified by gc/ms as: α-bisabolol (17.5%), cedrol (15.9%), sesquisabinene hydrate (13.0%), α-elemol (10.5%) and trans-longip...

background and objective: reduced fat cheese often exhibits poor sensory quality due to the reduction of fat, which plays a critical role in flavor and texture. therefore, there is the challenge to produce a reduced fat cheese with improved sensory attributes and texture that is also comparable to its full-fat counterpart. the main objective of this research was to investigate the effect of dif...

The unique and delicate flavour of olive oil is attributed to the volatile compounds that develop during and after oil extraction from the olive fruit. The formation of these volatile compounds and the fruit characteristics that affect the formation are examined in this review. The role of extraction time -temperature interactions in volatile development and other factors that impact volatile d...

This study investigated the composition of volatile compounds in two pummelo cultivars, including 'Shatian' and 'Guanxi', cultivated in different regions of China with the aim of studying the effect of cultivar and cultivation condition on biosynthesis of volatile compounds in pummelo. Volatile compounds were extracted from pummelo juice using head-space microextraction and then analyzed using ...
