Volatile components of papaya (Carica papaya L., Maradol variety) fruit

Abstract: Volatile compounds were isolated from fresh papaya fruit by simultaneous steam distillation-solvent extraction according to Likens-Nickerson. Compounds were identified by capillary GC-MS and sensorially characterized by sniffing GC. One hundred and sixty-six compounds were identified in the aroma concentrate, of which 77 were identified for the first time as papaya volatiles. Among the identified compounds, methyl butanoate, ethyl butanoate, 3-methyl-1-butanol and 1-butanol were found to be the major component… Show more

“…Compared with other tropical fruits, this is a low level, e.g. 12.8 μg/kg in papaya, [6] 240-332 mg/kg in bullock's heart, [7] 18-123 mg/kg in mango, [8] 6.5 mg/kg in sapote, [2] and 18.8 mg/kg in yellow sapote, [9] but higher than 1.5 mg/kg in star apple, [10] determined with the same isolation technique. The composition of the fruit included 12 ketones (27.5% of the total volatile composition), seven terpenes (64.8%), four esters (4.1%), four alcohols (2.1%), two aldehydes (1.1%), and a sulfur compound (0.4%), all of them Compound definitely identified (comparison of LRI and mass spectra with reference compound) b By mass spectra data and retention index data from the literature.…”

“…Another investigation reported the esters as the predominant volatile components of the Maradol variety (about 41% w/w of the total volatiles) [51]. The major representative compounds in the simultaneous steam distillation-solvent extraction were methyl butanoate and ethyl butanoate.…”

“…It has become a commercially important fresh fruit crop, particularly in the USA and Europe [51]. Papaya possesses a characteristic aroma, which is due to several volatile components, such as alcohols, esters, aldehydes, and sulfur compounds [11].…”
