Heptan-2-ol and trans -linalool oxide (fur.) as inherent indicators of natural blackberry flavour using enantioselective and multielement-MDGC-IRMS analysis.
Abstract Flavour extracts of different blackberry cultivars were investigated in a view of authenticity assessment, using multielement-/multicomponent MDGC–IRMS and enantioselective MDGC analysis. In conclusion enantioselective analysis of heptan-2-ol and trans-linalool oxide (fur.) in conjunction with multielement MDGC-C/P-IRMS analysis were proved to be useful tools in the authenticity assessment of blackberry flavours.
