Concentrations of Character Impact Odorants in ‘Toyonoka’ Strawberries Quantified by Standard Addition Method and PQ Column Extraction with GC-MS Analysis
Year: 2009
Type: article
Abstract: In the present study, the standard addition method with Porapak Q column (PQ) extraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis was adapted to quantitatively determine the character impact odorants of 'Toyonoka' strawberries.A significant correlation was confirmed between the contents that determine the character impact odorants in the PQ extract and the levels of standards added to the fruit samples; therefore, standard addition analysis might be a useful and reliable method to analyze already-known odorants in fruits.The concentrations of the character impact odorants, especially 2,5-dimethyl-4-hydroxy-2H-furan-3-one, hexanoic acid, γ-dodecalactone, and the esters, were detected at relatively high levels, which could explain why 'Toyonoka' strawberries have abundant aromas.
