Analysis of food taints and off-flavours: a review

Analysis of taints and off-flavours

“…Details of these methods are covered in more detail in other chapters and are reviewed in the literature (Ridgway et al, 2007(Ridgway et al, , 2010, but advantages and disadvantages of each are summarised in Table 4.1.…”

Smell Sensors with Insect Antenna

“…Insect uses antennae to detect chemical volatiles in their surrounding environments in order to communicate with other individuals and identifies the nutrition sources, navigation, or avoid the dangerous [1]. The sensilla are distributed on the surface of antennae and palp, which contain the olfactory receptors that can interact with molecules of target volatiles [2]. There are various types of sensilla that can be distinguished under scanning electron microscopy ( Fig.…”

An alternative method for analysis of food taints using stir bar sorptive extraction

“…The origins of taints and off-flavours have been reviewed [1,2] and more recently the methods of analysis used for determination of tainting compounds in foods [3]. Current extraction methods for taint analysis fall into two categories.…”
