Zusammenfassung

Die intensivsten Geruchsstoffe eines Zitronenöls, das 120 h bei Raumtemperatur bestrahlt worden war, wurden identifiziert. Eine Aromastoffverdünnungsanalyse ergab hohe FD-Faktoren bei Carvon,p-Methylacetophenon,p-Kresol, 4-Acetyl-1-methyl-l-cyclohexen und bei vier Limonenhydroperoxiden. Vom Neral, Geranial und Linalool (Geruchsstoffe des frischen Öls) Bowie vom Carvon,p-Methylacetophenon,p-Kresol undp-Cymen wurde die Konzentration in Abhangigkeit von der Lagerzeit bestimmt und der Aromawert berechnet.

Summary

The odorants of a lemon oil sample, which was peroxidized for 120 h at room temperature in the presence of light, were analysed by an aroma extract dilution procedure. On the basis of their FD factors carvone,p-methylacetophenone,p-cresol, 4-acetyl-1-methyl-1-cyclohexene and 4 hydroperoxides were identified as the most intense odorants. Changes in the concentrations of neral, geranial, linalool (odorants of the fresh lemon oil), carvone,p-methylacetophenone,p-cresol andp-cymene (dependent on the storage time) were determined and the odour units for these compounds were calculated.
