Appendix a Threshold Data Appendix A Threshold Data The following table is a collection of sensory threshold data, O for olfactory and T for taste, for a variety of relevant compounds, measured in a variety of solvents— water, beer, wine, and spirits. The data comes from literature over the past 50 years, from a number of different researchers using different methods of analysis. Some papers distinguish a recognition threshold from a detection threshold: those are indicated by rO and dO, respectively. For taste, which is generally broken down into sweetness, sourness, saltiness, bitterness, and umaminess, the appropriate taste characteristic is indicated when known. It is tempting to think that the olfactory threshold is determined strictly by the concentration of a chemical in the air being inhaled. If this is the case, then the identity of the solvent is relevant only in so far as it determines a relation between the concentration in solution and the concentration in air. We can test this hypothesis for some materials as follows. If species i were in vapor-liquid equilibrium, then (subject to approximations) γ P ∗ y = x i i i i P (A.1) where γi is activity coefficient in the liquid (a strong function of the liquid ∗ composition, and a weaker function of temperature), Pi is the vapor pressure of pure i (a function of temperature only), and P is the experimental pressure (assumed constant). To estimate γi we can make reference to the partition coefficients of Ikari and Kubo [377], which permit the calculation yi = Ki(x)xi, © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2019 421 G. H. Miller, Whisky Science, https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-13732-8 422 A Threshold Data where the temperature is determined by water-ethanol equilibrium and the ethanol mole fraction x (no subscript). If the temperature dependence of (A.1) lies entirely ∗ with Pi , then ∗ Pi (T ) yi = Ki(x) ∗ xi, Pi (Teq(x)) where the ratio of vapor pressures corrects the partition coefficient for the effect of temperature. We explore this hypothesis for isoamyl alcohol (Fig. A.1) using a vapor pressure function tabulated by Yaws [912]. In this plot, where each point comes from a different literature source, often using different methods, the raw threshold data shows significant variability. There is, however, an apparent positive correlation: the threshold level generally increases with increasing ethanol mole fraction. The ∗ threshold data, multiplied by Ki and the Pi ratio, is also plotted. If the hypothesis were correct, and the approximations all valid, these corrected points would have constant amplitude. The diamond symbols in Fig. A.1 are approximately constant literature threshold calculated headspace proof 0 40 80 60000 9000 8000 50000 7000 40000 6000 5000 30000 4000 20000 3000 headspace concentration olfactory threshold [ppb] 2000 10000 1000 0 0 00.05 0.10.15 0.2 x Fig. A.1 Olfactory threshold data for isoamyl alcohol in a variety of solutions, and calculated proxy for headspace concentration A Threshold Data 423 (i.e., show less variability than the raw square symbols do), especially if the data at x = 0.04 were considered an outlier. Thus, this plot lends some qualitative support to the hypothesis that the solvent only acts to regulate headspace concentration. However, a quantitative evaluation of the hypothesis is not possible given the paucity and variability of the data (Table A.1). 424 A Threshold Data Table A.1 A compilation of aroma threshold data

Zenkevichb) National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20899, USA (Received 1 August 2011; accepted 27 September 2011; published online 29 November 2011) Gas chromatographic retention indices were evaluated for 505 frequently reported plant essential oil components using a large retention index database. Retention data are presented for three types of commonly used stationary phases: dimethyl silicone (nonpolar), dimethyl sili- cone with 5% phenyl groups (slightly polar), and polyethylene glycol (polar) stationary phases. The evaluations are based on the treatment of multiple measurements with the number of data records ranging from about 5 to 800 per compound. Data analysis was limited to temperature programmed conditions. The data reported include the average and median values of retention index with standard deviations and confidence intervals.

    Deletre et al. Parasites & Vectors (2015) 8:316 DOI 10.1186/s13071-015-0934-y RESEARCH Open Access Electrophysiological and behavioral characterization of bioactive compounds of the Thymus vulgaris, Cymbopogon winterianus, Cuminum cyminum and Cinnamomum zeylanicum essential oils against Anopheles gambiae and prospects for their use as bednet treatments Emilie Deletre1* , Fabrice Chandre2, Livy Williams3, Claire Duménil1, Chantal Menut4 and Thibaud Martin1,5 Abstract Background: Laboratory and field studies showed that repellent, irritant and toxic actions of common public health insecticides reduce human-vector contact and thereby interrupt disease transmission. One of the more effective strategies to reduce disease risk involves the use of long-lasting treated bednets. However, development of insecticide resistance in mosquito populations makes it imperative to find alternatives to these insecticides. Our previous study identified four essential oils as alternatives to pyrethroids: Thymus vulgaris, Cymbopogon winterianus, Cuminum cyminum, Cinnamomum zeylanicum. The objectives of this study were to identify active compounds of these essential oils, to characterize their biological activity, and to examine their potential as a treatment for bednets. Methods: We evaluated the electrophysiological, behavioural (repellency, irritancy) and toxic effects of the major compounds of these oils against Anopheles gambiae strain ‘Kisumu’. Results: Aldehydes elicited the strongest responses and monoterpenes the weakest responses in electroantennogram (EAG) trials. However, EAG responses did not correlate consistently with results of behavioral assays. In behavioral and toxicity studies, several of the single compounds did exhibit repellency, irritancy or toxicity in An. gambiae; however, the activity of essential oils did not always correlate with activity expected from the major components. On the contrary, the biological activity of essential oils appeared complex, suggesting interactions between individual compounds and the insect under study.

Thus, as beer volatile components represent the major contributors for beer overall and peculiar aroma properties, this work intends to perform an in-depth profiling of lager beer volatile metabolites and to generate new data that may contribute for molecules’ identification, by using multidimensional gas chromatography. A set of lager beers were used as case-study, and 329 volatile metabolites were determined, distributed over 8 chemical families: acids, alcohols, esters, monoterpenic compounds, norisoprenoids, sesquiterpenic compounds, sulfur compounds, and volatile phenols. From these, 96 compounds are reported for the first time in the lager beer volatile composition. Around half of them were common to all beers under study. Clustering analysis allowed a beer typing according to production system: macro- and microbrewer beers. Monoterpenic and sesquiterpenic compounds were the chemical families that showed wide range of chemical structures, which may contribute for the samples’ peculiar aroma characteristics.

The carboxylic acids not only form an important class of organic compounds but are also the parent compounds of a large group of compounds called the functional derivatives of carboxylic acids which can be further classified as acid halides, acid anhydrides, acid .amides and esters. These classes of compounds \kill be discussed in Unit 17. Carboxylic acids also play an important role in various biological processes. In Unit 16, you will study about some such acids ..Besides carboxylic acids, there is another important class of organic acids, called sulphonic adds. The sulphonic acids are the compounds which contain a S03H group, called the sulphonic acid soup. Sulphonic acids are organic acids related to sulphuric acid. Sulphonic acids and carboxylic acids are closely related in their chemistry. Therefore, in this unit, we will first study the chemistry of carboxylic acids and then that of the sulphonic acids.

Except for formic acid, normal SCFAs with 2 to 8 carbons increased the OF in 6 rat RBCs with increasing number of hydrocarbons in a dose-dependent manner. 7 Replacement of the carboxylic group with sulfonic group inhibited, but did not abolish, 8 the SCFA-mediated increase in OF.

  • New Natural Agonists of the Transient Receptor Potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN New natural agonists of the transient receptor potential Ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) channel Coline Legrand, Jenny Meylan Merlini, Carole de Senarclens‑Bezençon & Stéphanie Michlig* The transient receptor potential (TRP) channels family are cationic channels involved in various physiological processes as pain, infammation, metabolism, swallowing function, gut motility, thermoregulation or adipogenesis. In the oral cavity, TRP channels are involved in chemesthesis, the sensory chemical transduction of spicy ingredients. Among them, TRPA1 is activated by natural molecules producing pungent, tingling or irritating sensations during their consumption. TRPA1 can be activated by diferent chemicals found in plants or spices such as the electrophiles isothiocyanates, thiosulfnates or unsaturated aldehydes. TRPA1 has been as well associated to various physiological mechanisms like gut motility, infammation or pain. Cinnamaldehyde, its well known potent agonist from cinnamon, is reported to impact metabolism and exert anti-obesity and anti-hyperglycemic efects. Recently, a structurally similar molecule to cinnamaldehyde, cuminaldehyde was shown to possess anti-obesity and anti-hyperglycemic efect as well. We hypothesized that both cinnamaldehyde and cuminaldehyde might exert this metabolic efects through TRPA1 activation and evaluated the impact of cuminaldehyde on TRPA1. The results presented here show that cuminaldehyde activates TRPA1 as well. Additionally, a new natural agonist of TRPA1, tiglic aldehyde, was identifed
