Sousa, Antonio;Vareda, Jose;Pereira, Regina;Silva, Catarina;Camara, Jose S.;Perestrelo, Rosa research published 《 Geographical differentiation of apple ciders based on volatile fingerprint》, the research content is summarized as follows. With the globalization of food trade, its traceability and genuineness becomes increasingly more difficult. Therefore, it is necessary to develop anal. tools to define the authenticity and genuineness of food-derived products. In the current work, headspace solid-phase microextraction followed by gas chromatog.-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME/GC-MS) combined with chemometric tools was used to establish the volatile fingerprint of apple ciders produced in different geog. regions of Madeira Island, in order to define their typicity and to identify putative geog. markers. A total of 143 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) belonging to different chem. families have been identified, of which 28 were found in all apple ciders independently of geog. region. Esters, terpenic and furanic compounds presented on average a higher contribution for the total volatile fingerprint in cider produced in northern region of the Island, whereas alcs., acids, volatile phenols, carbonyl compounds and lactones in cider from southern region. Considering the relative areas of the VOCs, 43 revealed statistically significant differences (p < 0.001) between geog. regions, and 11 between northern and southern regions. A clear differentiation among cider-producing regions was observed on the developed partial least squares-discriminant anal. (PLS-DA) model. Two alcs. (1-hexanol, 1-octanol), 6 esters (Me acetate, (Z)-3-hexen-1-ol acetate, Et hexanoate, Et nonanote, Et octanoate, isoamyl octanoate) and 1 terpenic compound (limonene), can be considered putative geog. markers due to their discriminatory ability. The results obtained recognize the specific and typical geog. characteristics of the cider, which will allow the forthcoming guarantee for the construction of a sustainable platform for the establishment of the authenticity and typicality of the regional cider.
SDS of cas: 611-13-2, Methyl 2-furoate has been identified as one of the volatile flavor compounds in tequila, okra, berrycactus and black currant juice.
Methyl 2-furoate, also known as fema 2703 or methyl pyromucate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as furoic acid esters. These are ester derivatives of furoic acid. Methyl 2-furoate is soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Within the cell, methyl 2-furoate is primarily located in the cytoplasm. Methyl 2-furoate is a sweet, fruity, and fungal tasting compound that can be found in a number of food items such as cocoa and cocoa products, potato, tamarind, and fruits. This makes methyl 2-furoate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Methyl 2-furoate is a reactive compound that belongs to the family of sesquiterpene lactones. It has been shown to have phosphotungstic acid and hydrochloric acid reactivity, as well as nitrous and water vapor sensitivity. Methyl 2-furoate also reacts with radiation, which can be used for structural analysis. The compound is an intermediate in the synthesis of pluronic p123, which is used in fabricating biomedical devices. Methyl 2-furoate has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties through its inhibitory effect on prostaglandin synthesis., 611-13-2.
