Resin Acid in Tree Moss Extract

Lichens are symbiotic organisms of fungi and algae. The biological significance of lichens and their metabolites has been reviewed by Huneck, who even stated that “good perfumes require lichen extracts.”

Aleuritic Acid in Perfumery and Pheromones

The brief account given above indicates the vast potential which aleuritic acid holds in the synthesis of numerous useful organic compounds possessing olfactory properties. With a steady and substantial availability of threo aleuritic acid, its utility is expected to increase enormously.

Fragrant Esters of 3-Cyclohexylbutanoic Acid

Thus, the acid is not too easily available, but remarkable fragrant properties of its esters raise the interest in its production. The first four stages of its synthesis have been described previously. Prin’s reaction of α-methylstyrene with formaldehyde yields 4-methyl-4-phenyl-1,3-dioxane.

Flavor Bites: 5-Hydroxy 2-decenoic acid delta lactone

Otherwise known as massoi lactone—the key flavor component of massoi bark oil—5-hydroxy 2-decenoic acid delta lactone is known for adding a creamy note in more than just dairy flavors.

A Neurobehavioral Analysis of I-Amino Acids as Taste Stimuli

We have described several aspects of amino acid gustatory stimulation in this report. Most convey the same message: despite some peculiarities in response time courses, amino acids bear striking similarities to the salts, acids and sugars which the majority of investigators use as taste stimuli. By determining the gustatory properties of amino acids, future research into nutrition and food selection may proceed in a logical fashion through several levels of nutrient complexity and at successive levels of the nervous system.

In beer flavors, the ideal levels are a little surprising. Light, lager-style, beers can benefit from around 300 ppm, but dark beers work best with lower levels, around 100 ppm.

Decanoic Acid in Dairy, Savory, Fermented, Fruit and Other Flavors

Decanoic acid is pretty much an essential component of dairy flavors, but it can also enhance many other categories.

Pyrazine Generation from the Maillard Reaction of Mixed Amino Acids in Model Systems

In the present study, we used Kuo et al.’s previously reported selective purge-and-trap methods to study the effect of four amino acids, acting singly or in combination, on the generation of pyrazines.

Progress in Essential Oils: Thymol-rich Thymus vulgaris oils – Part 1

A derivative of thyme oil, thymol contains antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, among others. Part 1 discusses the various constituents of thymol-rich thyme oils.

The panel thought of apple, apricot, grape, pear, plum, peach, strawberry and kiwi, and some tropicals such as mango and papaya for possible applications including methyl-cis-5-octenoate.

HESP—A New Essential Oil From the Acid Hydrolysate of Spent Sandal Heartwood

In the present study, the utilization of the spent (exhausted) sandalwood powder from steam distillation as a source of an acid hydrolysate oil is examined. It has been found that hydrolysis of the non-volatile portion of an acetone extract of the spent sandalwood powder with methanolic hydrochloric acid followed by steam distillation gave rise to a new essential oil (1.2% yield) which we have called HESP, the acronym for hydrolyzed exhausted sandalwood powder.

Chemical Characterization of Vanilla pompona Scheide, Part IV

Vanilla pompona is resistant to climate change and diseases, and therefore is preferred for hybridization with V. planifolia. Its chemical characterization was carried out in a series of studies, described in this last of four parts.
