Identification of flavour volatile compounds produced by Kluyveromyces lactis

  • Published:
Biotechnology Techniques

Summary

More than 30 compounds were identified in Kluyveromyces lactis culture, including 5 aromatic hydrocarbons, 9 alcohols, 6 carboxylic acids, 8 esters, 2 ketones and 1 fuanone. Most of them have not been previously reported in the culture of K. lactis. The predominant components are isoamyl alcohol, 2-phenylethanol, and acetoin (73, 72 and 22 mg/L broth, respectively). 2-Phenylethyl acetate, isobutanol, isobutyric and isovaleric acids were also detected in significant amounts.
