Isoamyl Acetate (Banana Flavor)

ISOAMYL ACETATE Flavors are essential for a food product, and Isoamyl acetate is widely used as a flavor in the food industry because of its unique banana taste and odor. Isoamyl acetate can be found naturally in the banana plant, and it is also possible to produce synthetically. It is a mixture of acetic acid esters of pentanols [1-2]. Ester group is an important group. Their general formula is R-CO-O-R', which are widely distributed in nature. Esters usually have a pleasant odor. In many examples, the characteristic aroma and taste of fruits and some flowers are due to the ester group. Ester group can be synthesized in various techniques such as Fischer-Speier esterification. With this practical and widely used laboratory condition method, carboxylic acid or alcohol is used as an economic product and available in large quantities. Many aromas' organoleptic properties occur due to a single ester that predominates, as in our case banana oil, the main constituent is is

Why is the Peach Surface Covered with a Hairy Structure?

Why is the Peach Surface Covered with a Hairy Structure? Plant surfaces have an important effect in protecting against stress factors such as water losses, visible radiation, or extreme temperatures. These surfaces also play a crucial role as a defense barrier against pathogens[1]. The peach surface is covered with a dense hairy surface that can serve various protective purposes. It is named as fuzz, and it protects peach from external factors in several ways. This structure could be a useful evolutionary feature under some physical and biological circumstances[2]. Fruits generally suffer from moisture loss through evaporation, and this hairy structure prevents air from touching the fruit surface, thereby slowing evaporation and also minimizing moisture loss by keeping dew and rain slowing evaporation. Another purpose of this protection shield is to protect them from insects. It seems that little bugs do not like to tickle when they walk along with the peach. Not all peaches ha

The Use of Caper in Food Technology

The Use of Caper in Food Technology Caper, which grows in different regions of the world and is generally common in hot climates, is also known as “ caper bush (capparis spinosa) ”. It is in the Capparaceae family. Caper is internationally known for its processed flower buds, which has long been used in nutrition as a commercial value product. This seasoning product, which is unique to the Mediterranean cuisine, has exceeded this limit within the framework of the new gastronomy understanding that has changed and diversified and has become known worldwide as a valuable identifier of refined and gourmet flavors. Although caper is included in many countries' food legislation as a spice/seasoning product and is accepted as GRAS*, it has not yet achieved quality standards in the form of raw or processed products [1] . High economic yield caper is used for food purposes. Its pea-sized buds are rich in vitamins, minerals, polyphenolic* substances, protein, caparirutin* and glucocapa
