Course Goal / Objective

The aroma in foods is composed of many volatile compounds in complex structure and plays an important role in quality. The food aroma occurs in many flavoring substances such as aldehydes, esters, alcohols, terpenes. The aim of this course is to create biosynthesis mechanisms (important genes and enzymes) and disintegration during fruit development and especially during the maturity period. Today, however, biosynthesis mechanisms are still at a limited level.

Course Content

Aroma compounds in foods (esters, alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, terpenes, volatile phenols, lactones), the mechanisms of synthesis of these compounds, some genes that have an affinity in aroma biosynthesis, enzymes that have an effect on aroma biosynthesis, the role of ethylene in the biosynthesis of aroma substances.
