Odor Value (odor + value)
Selected AbstractsPerfumery quaternary diagrams for engineering perfumesAICHE JOURNAL, Issue 8 2009Miguel A. Teixeira Abstract The Perfumery Ternary Diagram (PTD®) methodology predicts the headspace odor character and intensity of fragrant mixtures, applying the concept of odor value (OV) to multi-component systems. This methodology is extended here to quaternary and quinary odorant systems through the use of tetrahedric diagrams. To present this new methodology, the effect of different base notes in quaternary systems of the type (limonene + geraniol + base note + ethanol) and its forming ternary subsystems has been studied. Base notes selected were: vanillin, tonalide, ambrox, and galaxolide. The Perfumery Quaternary Diagrams (PQD) of the mixtures studied show the different headspace odor character, with ambrox and galaxolide dominating most of the composition spectrum (OVmax). The methodology was also applied to the quinary mixture (limonene + geraniol + vanillin + tonalide + ethanol), and the effect of different concentrations of tonalide on the headspace is presented. © 2009 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2009 [source] A new methodology for the definition of odor zones in perfumery ternary diagramsAICHE JOURNAL, Issue 8 2006Vera G. Mata Abstract The new methodology called "Perfumery Ternary Diagram" helps perfumers in odor prediction, allowing a fast evaluation of the odor value in the headspace for all possible combinations of a non-ideal perfume liquid mixture with three fragrant components and one or more solvents. In this work, the determination of Perfumery Ternary Points (PTP) and Perfumery Binary Lines (PBL) is described, allowing a complete definition of Perfumery Ternary Diagram (PTD) odor zones, without the need to calculate a large number of points inside the triangle region. The methodology of PTP and PBL determination was applied to the system: limonene, geraniol, vanillin, and ethanol. The effect of solvent,ethanol,on the odor zones, namely on the number of PTP and on the shape of the PBL was studied, as well as the effect of the non-idealities. © 2006 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2006 [source] Factors Influencing the Occurrence of Methanethiol in Aqueous Slurries of Soy Protein ConcentratesJOURNAL OF FOOD SCIENCE, Issue 5 2003Q. Lei ABSTRACT : Aqueous slurries of 6 commercial soy protein concentrate (SPC) contained from 9.8 to 21.7 ppb methanethiol, which corresponds to odor values (in water) of 49 to 108. Effects of temperature (5.5, 24, and 65°C), pH (4.8,6.6, and 9.0), transition metals (FeCl3, FeCl2, and CuCl2), lipoxygenase, and EDTA on methanethiol levels in SPC slurries were investigated. Higher temperature (65°C), basic pH (9.0), transition metals, lipoxygenase, and EDTA caused significant increases in methanethiol compared with the control. CuCl2 caused greater increases in methanethiol than FeCl3 and FeCl2. In contrast, treatments with lower temperature (5.5°C) or acidic pH (4.8) resulted in lower levels of methanethiol in all commercial SPC samples examined.

Boatright ABSTRACT Volatile compounds from 2 samples of aqueous soy-protein isolates (SPI) (7%) were analyzed using both static and dynamic headspace methods. Based on dynamic headspace analyses, the most powerful odorants were (1) dimethyl trisulfide, (2) methanethiol, (3) hexanal, (4) an unidentified charred, sweaty feet-like odor, (5) 2-pentyl furan, (6) 2,3-butadione, and (7) an unknown burnt-like odor. The most powerful odorants by static headspace analyses were (1) dimethyl trisulfide, (2) hexanal, (3) methanethiol, and (4) 2-pentyl furan. Using deuterium labeled DMTS as an internal standard, DMTS was quantified at 60.1 and 45.5 ppb in the SPIs. This corresponds to odor values of 6014 and 4554, respectively. Using a cool, on-column technique, direct injection of concentrated-headspace volatiles and solvent-recovered volatiles with an internal standard of d6 -DMTS detected both methanethiol and DMTS at similar levels as with the traditional injection methods.
