• Small volatile molecules (MM<300g/mol), which partial pressure at atmospheric pressure is sufficient to induce a stimulus on olfactive sensors.
Aroma compounds
Aroma compounds « Key» compounds of organoleptic quality of
foods
Aroma compounds properties
Volatile molecules: odorous
Low MM
Low concentrations in food products
Complex medium = Interactions between aroma compounds and other constituents of the food matrix
How to formulate food products (aromatisation) for a perception meeting consumers expectations?
