Osmanthus fragrans Lour. is one of the top 10 traditional ornamental flowers in China famous for its unique fragrance. Preliminary study proved that the terpenoids including ionone, linalool, and ocimene and their derivatives are the dominant aroma-active compounds that contribute greatly to the scent bouquet. Pollination observation implies the emission of aromatic terpenoids may follow a circ...

This article describes the analysis of volatile compounds in fermented materials used for salmon fish sauce production via gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Ten types of fish sauces were produced from raw salmon materials, including various proportions of flesh, viscera, inedible portion (heads, fins, and backbones), and soft roe, by mixing them with salt and allowing them to fermen...

By introducing sequentially connected two packed-capillary columns, a wide range of volatile compounds were successfully separated in gas chromatography. The hyphenation of two packed-capillary columns of 1.0 mm i.d. was accomplished using a conventional 6-port valve, where the temperature of each column was individually controlled in the respective column ovens. These columns were prepared w...

The volatile composition of white Agudelo, Blancolexitimo, Godello and red Serradelo cultivars (NW Spain) harvested at two different stages of ripening have been evaluated. C(6)-compounds, alcohols, volatile fatty acids, monoterpenes, C(13)-norisoprenoids, volatile phenols and carbonyl compounds were identified and quantified in free and glycosidically bound forms by gas chromatography-mass spe...

To accelerate cheese ripening, enhance its flavor types and intensity and make cheese flavoring agent in shorter time, surface ripening bacterium (Brevibacterium linens and Debaryomyces hansenii) and/or enzymes (Flavorzyme 500 MG and Palatase 20000 L) were used in cheese curd. In this study, aroma compounds generated by using ripening cultures and/or enzymes were analyzed. The control l was mad...

Chlorinated hydrocarbons and aromatics are the major volatile organic compounds that contaminate the ground water and industrial waste waters. The best way to overcome this problem is to recover the dissolved compounds in water. In order to evaluate the potential ability of granular activated carbon (GAC) for recovery of volatile organic compounds from water, the equilibrium adsorption was inve...

release  volatile  organic  compounds  (vocs)  as  environmental  and  occupational  pollutant  cause  macro perspective affect such as climate change, humans and economic consequences. although fixed bed absorber is widely used as a controlling method because of its economically and availability, but these absorbers are facing some issue like high pressure drop, non-uniform distribution of flu...

herbal water is referred to the liquid obtained from the distillation of medicinal plants. different parts of plants, such as flowers, fruits, leaves, seeds and roots have long been used to produce herbal waters. herbal waters are used as dietary supplements and alternative medicine and are commonly used for flavoring in baking. previous studies focused on the non-volatile constituents of herbs...

objective(s): mindium laevigatum is an endemic plant of iran and turkey and is widely used as blood purifier, antiasthma and antidyspnea in traditional medicine. chemical composition of volatile materials of the plant and its antioxidant, antimicrobial and cytotoxic activities were reported in this study. materials and methods: simultaneous distillation-extraction (sde) and gc-mass-fid analysis...

the in vitro antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of the essential oil and methanolic extract of achillea sieheana staf. (asteraceae) were investigated in this study. the chemical composition of the essential oil isolated by hydro-distillation from the aerial parts of a. sieheana was analyzed by gc–ms. camphor (43.36%), artemisia ketone (25.95%), 1.8-cineole (6.29%) and camphene (4.77%) wer...
