Research on flavor substances

Flavor substances are mainly Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), usually refers to the atmospheric pressure, boiling point at 50℃-260℃ of all kinds of organic compounds. VOCs can be further divided into alanes, aromatic hydrocarbons, esters, aldehydes and others according to their chemical structure. Common benzene, toluene, xylene, styrene, phenyl ethanol, chloroform, propyl butyrate, 2-nonone, 2-octanone and so on.

Case Analysis

Study on tissue-specific molecular mechanism of Volatile organic Compounds (VOCs) in Cucumber。

Plant Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), with tissue specificity, can protect plants from various forms of biological attack, and play an important ecological role in the ecological environment. Currently, more than 1700 volatile compounds have been found in plants Cucumber is loved by people for its rich nutritional value and refreshing taste. In this study, 23 different cucumber tissues were detected and 85 volatile compounds were identified. At the same time, combined with transcriptome analysis, the biosynthesis pathway and regulatory molecular mechanism of cucumber volatile organic compounds were systematically revealed
