Aroma Diffusion : The Influence of Water Activity and of Molecular Weight of the Other Solutes

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSE,volume 90))

Abstract

A determinant factor of the quality of a processed food product is the behavior of the aroma during the processing operations. Even at moderate temperatures, changes in the aromatic composition may occur. These changes may originate in chemical reactions responsible for the deterioration of aroma compounds, or for the formation of off-flavors from non-volatile components. But losses of physical character can also greatly affect the quality of the product.
