Isolation of Volatile Flavour Compounds from Fats and Oils by Vacuum Carbon Dioxide Distillation.

Adsorption of Volatile Organic Compounds from Aqueous Solution by Granular Activated Carbon (GAC) in Batch System

Screening processed milk for volatile organic compounds using vacuum distillation/gas chromatography/mass spectrometry.

An adaptation is presented of method 8261--from the Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response Test Methods for Evaluating Solid Waste Physical/Chemical Methods (SW-846)-to analyze milk for an expanded list of volatile organic compounds is presented. The milk matrix exhibits a strong affinity for organic compounds and the surrogate based matrix normalization described in method 8261 provided ...

Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction of Volatile Flavor Compounds from Artemisia annua

The aromatic compounds of Artemisia annua were extracted by supercritical carbon dioxide. Supercritical carbon dioxide extraction of volatile flavor compounds from Artemisia annua was performed at pressure 150bar and temperature 40oC. The flow rate of CO2 was 20 g/min and the flow rate of ethanol as an entrainer was 5% of CO2 used. The extraction time was 1 h. The trapped sample by cold trap 1 ...

Isolation of Crithmum Maritimum Volatile Oil By Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Extraction

Dried and ground leaves of Crithmum maritimum were used as a matrix for supercritical extraction of volatile oil with CO2. Operative conditions were: extractor, 90 bar and 50 °C for 240 min; first separator, 90 bar and –10°C; second separator, 15 bar and 15 °C. GC/MS analysis of the leaves volatile oil revealed that it mainly consisted of: para-cymene, βphellandrene, γ-terpinene, thymol methyl ...

Autoxidation of Fats and Oils

Products that contain fats and oils turn rancid and deteriorate in other ways when they arc exposed to air. The action^ known as autoxidation, imparts disagreeable flavors and odors to fats and foods containing them. For a long time baffled investigators spent a vast amount of effort trying to find ways to prevent autoxidation. Specifically, the basic problem was the mechanism of autoxidation—h...
