Objectives of the Course
Aroma substances are one of the most significant factors which shape the quality and affect consumer preference. The achievement of aroma characterization of foodstuffs depends largely on the extraction technique employed to isolate the aroma compounds from the foodmatrix. Therefore, the extraction method must be selected with the aim of producing representative exracts with odor as close as possible to that of the original product. Therefore, the aim of this lesson is explaining aroma analyse techniques in detail.
