General description

(+)-γ-Decalactone, the main volatile aroma compound found in peaches, can be used as a flavoring agent in the food industry due to its distinct peach odor. It is also found in strawberries and apricots.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one of the four categories of Greener Alternatives . This product is a Biobased products, showing key improvements in Green Chemistry Principles “Less Hazardous Chemical Syntheses” and “Use of Renewable Feedstock”.

Application


  • Decoding the Effect of Running on Flavor Perception Changes during Consumption of Sports Drinks.: Pu et al. investigate how physical activity affects flavor perception, particularly focusing on sports drinks. The study includes (+)-γ-Decalactone as a compound of interest due to its impact on flavor modulation during and after exercise (Pu et al., 2024).

  • Analysis of volatile organic compounds in Korean-bred strawberries: insights for improving fruit flavor.: Jee et al. analyze volatile organic compounds in strawberries, identifying key compounds such as (+)-γ-Decalactone that contribute to fruit flavor. This research provides valuable insights for the enhancement of fruit taste in breeding programs (Jee et al., 2024).

  • (R)-(+)-γ-Decalactone is Conserved in North America as a Pheromone Component of Osmoderma eremicola (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae) and a Kairomone of Elater abruptus (Coleoptera: Elateridae).: Steffek et al. examine the role of (+)-γ-Decalactone as a pheromone and kairomone in specific beetle species, highlighting its ecological and biochemical significance (Steffek et al., 2024).
