Sliced bread, organic

Although detailed statistics are not available, the main product areas in organic baking in the UK, by volume, are in-store bakery bread, mainstream sliced bread, speciality breads, and cakes, biscuits and other products. 

Sampling and Analysis. A frozen slice of bread was cut in pieces and stacked in an enlarged sample flask of an aroma isolation apparatus according to MacLeod and Ames (74). Volatile compounds were trapped on Tenax TA and afterwards thermally desorbed and cold trap injected in a Carlo Erba GC 6000 vega equipped with a Supelcowax 10 capillary column (60 m x 0.25 mm i.d.) and a flame ionisation detector. Similar GC conditions were used for GC-MS identification of volatile compounds by dr. M.A. Posthumus (Dept. Organic Chemistry, VG MM7070F mass spectrometer at 70 eV El, 75).
