Flavors analysis

With this said, the following discussion will be weighted towards the analysis of volatile substances for two reasons. The first is that aroma is unquestionably important to flavor perception. The second is that there is less work published on the analysis of taste (nonvolatile substances). We have a poor understanding how taste/texture stimuli support flavor perception and limited methodology or data to discuss.

Computers are pervading all areas of our life and, in this same way, they are pervading all areas of chemical research. In flavor analysis, computers with their information analysis capabilities are a natural ally with separation science which is an information generator. Our laboratory has extensive experience with the Hewlett-Packard 3357 Laboratory Automation System. The specific hardware which we have is given in Table I.

In flavor analysis, the most frequent use of volatile traps is in analyzing the flavor compounds in foods using purge-and-trap or dynamic headspace, followed by GC-MS or GCO. Additionally, the traps can be used to measure static headspace and air-matrix partition coefficients where air is pushed out of an equilibrated cell containing the sample onto a volatile trap (Chaintreau et al., 1995). Volatile traps have been also used for flavor release measurements during eating (Linforth and Taylor, 1993) or simulated eating (Roberts and Acree, 1995).

New accessories are continually made available. This unit discusses the basics necessary to conduct SPME analysis for flavor analysis. An automated sampling and injection system is available from Varian. Supelco offers a manual sampling stand setup. Injection liners are available that reduce the injection port volume to presumably produce sharper peaks. Predrilled septa for the GC are available to reduce septum coring. 

Simulation of Mouth Conditions for Flavor Analysis The RAS is not intended to simulate the size or structure of the mouth. The conditions in the mouth expected to affect volatility—i.e., temperature, breath flow, mastication, and salivation—are simulated. Temperature iscontrolled with a waterjacket (37°C). Gas (N2 or purified air) flow is controlled with a variable-area needle-valve flow meter (20 ml/sec). The shearing resulting from mastication is implemented with blender blades and a high-torque variable-...
