Retention behaviour of volatile compounds in normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography on a diol column
1993
Abstract Retention data on a diol column for over 300 compounds of the chemical classes usually contained in aroma extracts of plants and foodstuffs are reported. A concept that largely corrects for minor fluctuations of the mobile phase composition and of the flow-rate was used to measure capacity factors. The mobile phase was composed of pentane and diethyl ether. The high volatility of these two solvents makes the method perfectly adaptable to the prefractionation of aroma extracts and the semi-preparative isolation of compounds. Non-polar compounds such as hydrocarbons are not retained on diol. Polar compounds can be readily eluted, with the exception of strong acids and bases.
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic study of beta-lactoglobulin interactions with two flavor compounds, gamma-decalactone and beta-ionone.
2002
Interactions between a well-characterized protein, beta-lactoglobulin, and two flavor compounds, beta-ionone and gamma-decalactone, were studied by 2D NMR spectroscopy. NMR spectra were recorded in aqueous solution (pH 2.0, 12 mM NaCl, 10% D(2)O) under conditions such that beta-lactoglobulin is present in a monomeric state. TOCSY and NOESY spectra were recorded on the protein and the complexes between protein and ligands. The spectra of the NH-CH(alpha) region showed the cross-signals due to the coupling between N- and C-bonded protons in the polypeptide backbone. The observed chemical shift variations in the presence of ligands can be assigned to changes in the protein conformation. It app…
Prefractionation of aroma extracts from fat-containing food by high-performance size-exclusion chromatography
1996
A method for the prefractionation of aroma extracts of fat-containing food using high-performance size-exclusion chromatography is presented. The aim was to obtain a fraction of volatile compounds with a residual triglyceride content as low as possible, in order to allow its direct analysis by gas chromatography. Two different mobile phases, diethyl ether and dichloromethane, were tested and the elution volumes of triglycerides and a large variety of aroma compounds were measured. The quality of separation between triglycerides and volatile compounds as a function of column load was studied. The method was successfully applied to the analysis of goat cheese volatiles.
