Changes in the Composition and Amounts of Volatile Compounds of Apple Juice Associated with Thermal Processing (47) Nippon Shokuhin Kogyo Gakkaishi Vol. 34, No. 2, 115~122 (1987) 〔Article〕 115 Changes in the Composition and Amounts of Volatile Compounds of Apple Juice Associated with Thermal Processing Norio KAKIUCHI*,Sanae MORIGUCHI*,Nobutomo ICHIMURA**, Yutaka KATO** and YoshiakiBANBA** * FruitTree Research Station , Fujimoto,Yatabe-machi, Ibaraki 305 ** Food Laboratory, Soda AromaticCo., Ltd, Noda-shi Chiba 270-02 Studies were undertaken to analyse the changes in the composition and concentration of volatile compounds after thermal processing of apple juice and to evaluate the suitability for processing of five main cultivars in Japan. Juice yield of the cultivars examined ranged from 65.7% in 'Kogyoku' to 77.2% in 'Hatsuaki' throughout the processing. Seventy to 80 kinds of volatile compounds were detected in chromatographic peaks of which 39 compounds were identified by gas chromatograph- mass spectrometry. The compounds of each class included 27 kinds of esters, 6 of alcohols, 2 of aldehydes, 2 of hydrocarbons, a phenol and an acid. Average percentage of retention of each class of volatile compounds of the five cultivars was highest, 71.9%, for the alcohols, followed by 50.7% for the esters and 30.5% for the aldehydes. Total amounts of volatile compounds recovered after thermal processing were highest in the cultivar 'Kogyoku' amounting to 7.58ppm followed by 'Ha- tsuaki' with 5.83ppm, 'Mutsu' 3.20ppm, 'Golden・Delicious' 1.44ppm and lastly 'Fuji' with 1.41 ppm. From these results, it was apparent that the higher concentration of volatile compounds in the juice of cultivar 'Kogyoku' and related cultivar 'Hatsuaki' after thermal processing, accounted the higher suitability of juice making of these cultivars.

The energy differences between the initial state and the transition state for a molecule of interest are factored into internal and external mechanistic perturbation components. The internal perturbations quantify the interactions of the appended perturber (P) with the reaction center (C). These internal perturbations are factored into SPARC’s mechanistic components of electrostatic and resonance effects. External perturbations quantify the solute-solvent interactions (solvation energy) and are factored into H-bonding, field stabilization and steric effects. These models have been tested using 1471 reliable measured base, acid and general base-catalyzed carboxylic acid ester hydrolysis rate constants in water and in mixed solvent systems at different temperatures.

  • Comprehensive Characterization of Toxicity of Fermentative Metabolites on Microbial Growth Brandon Wilbanks1 and Cong T
    Wilbanks and Trinh Biotechnol Biofuels (2017) 10:262 DOI 10.1186/s13068-017-0952-4 Biotechnology for Biofuels RESEARCH Open Access Comprehensive characterization of toxicity of fermentative metabolites on microbial growth Brandon Wilbanks1 and Cong T. Trinh1,2* Abstract Background: Volatile carboxylic acids, alcohols, and esters are natural fermentative products, typically derived from anaerobic digestion. These metabolites have important functional roles to regulate cellular metabolisms and broad use as food supplements, favors and fragrances, solvents, and fuels. Comprehensive characterization of toxic efects of these metabolites on microbial growth under similar conditions is very limited. Results: We characterized a comprehensive list of thirty-two short-chain carboxylic acids, alcohols, and esters on microbial growth of Escherichia coli MG1655 under anaerobic conditions. We analyzed toxic efects of these metabo- lites on E. coli health, quantifed by growth rate and cell mass, as a function of metabolite types, concentrations, and physiochemical properties including carbon number, chemical functional group, chain branching feature, energy density, total surface area, and hydrophobicity. Strain characterization revealed that these metabolites exert distinct toxic efects on E. coli health. We found that higher concentrations and/or carbon numbers of metabolites cause more severe growth inhibition. For the same carbon numbers and metabolite concentrations, we discovered that branched chain metabolites are less toxic than the linear chain ones. Remarkably, shorter alkyl esters (e.g., ethyl butyrate) appear less toxic than longer alkyl esters (e.g., butyl acetate). Regardless of metabolites, hydrophobicity of a metabolite, gov- erned by its physiochemical properties, strongly correlates with the metabolite’s toxic efect on E. coli health.

Palm oil mill effluent The n-butanol to butyric acid molar ratio of 8 and lipase concentration of 75 U/mg gave the highest butyl butyrate formation of 63.33% based on the statistical optimization using face centered central composite design (FCCCD) after 12 h reaction. The esterification potential of the POME based lipase when compared with the commercial lipase from the same strain using the optimum levels was found to show a similar pattern. It can be concluded therefore that the produced lipase pos- sesses appropriate characteristics to be used as a biocatalyst in the esterification reactions for butyl butyrate formation.

Received: 5 September 2018; Accepted: 23 September 2018; Published: 25 September 2018 Abstract: Aromatic compounds are important for fruit quality and can vary among fruit cultivars. Volatile compounds formed during the ripening of two banana cultivars, Brazilian and Fenjiao, were determined using headspace solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME) and gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). These two cultivars exhibited different physiological characteristics during storage. Fenjiao fruit exhibited faster yellowing and softening, a higher respiration rate and greater ethylene production. Also, the soluble sugar content in Fenjiao fruit was much higher than in Brazilian fruit. In total, 62 and 59 volatile compounds were detected in Fenjiao and Brazilian fruits, respectively. The predominant volatile components isoamyl acetate, butanoic acid, 3-methyl-3-methylbutyl ester, hexanal, trans-2-hexenal and 1-hexanol varied during ripening stages. Moreover, esters were more abundant in Fenjiao, and propanoic acid 2-methylbutyl ester, and octanoic acid were only detected in Fenjiao.

The results showed that a total of 31, 30, and 30 ester compounds making a contribution to aroma were present in the HHL, ZPL, and LPLJ samples, respectively. From these esters, 16 compounds were identified as important odour substances, and their odour activity values (OAVs) were greater than 1. The key ester components were selected as: ethyl acetate, ethyl 2-methylbutyrate, ethyl 3-methyl butyrate, ethyl hexanoate, and ethyl phenylacetate by aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA), odour activity value (OAV), and omission testing. Five esters were studied for perceptual interactions while using Feller’s additive model, OAV, and a vector model. Among these mixtures, they all have an enhancing or synergistic effect. Among these mixtures, one mixture presented an additive effect and nine mixtures showed a synergistic effect.

(Motivation) n-butyl acetate (BA) has great potentials as a fuel additive: Butyl acetate BA’s high flash point (295 K) makes it safe for operation as fuel additive BA’s low freezing point (200 K) can help improve cold flow properties of the fuel As an oxygenated fuel, BA is anticipated to lower the sooting propensity of a BA/diesel-based mixture BA as a bioblendstock for diesel could decrease combustion pollutants and thus reduce the energy penalty of the aftertreatment However, still, there is a lack of direct evidence concerning the combustion performance of BA as a bioblendstock for diesel Droplet and spray combustion experiments followed by heavy-duty engine testing *DE-FOA-0001919 (Advanced Vehicle Technologies Research) 3 Production of Butyl Acetate (BA) Can enough BA be produced to meet needs of diesel transportation sector? Based on US-EIA: in 2019, 47B gallons diesel was consumed; assume 10% blending of BA ~5B gallons of BA is needed each year!
