“…Besides these volatiles, sabinene and 1,3,8-p-menthatriene were also detected to have middle intensities (1.75) among terpenoids. Additionally the importance of 2-sec-butyl-3-methoxypyrazine and (E)-2-nonenal are discussed as not only odor-active volatiles, but also basic components in most plants (Buttery et al, 1968;Cronin and Stanton, 1976;Pichersky et al, 2006). These results imply that both the typical terpenoids and other odor-active volatiles, such as aldehydes and methoxypyrazines, play a primary role in interacting with human odor receptors (Shibamoto, 1986).…”

Carrots, like most other vegetables, are classified into fresh or processing varieties in the food industry. To describe differences in volatile profiles and identify important volatiles among the carrot varieties of each type, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used to determine the composition of individual volatiles in 12 carrot varieties, including 7 Kuroda (fresh) and 5 Flakee (processing) types. Fifty-four volatiles were identified and quantified. β-Myrcene, terpinolene, sabinene and 1,3,8-p-menthatriene were detected as odor-active volatiles by GC-olfactometry. PCA distinguished Kuroda from Flakee by PC1. β-Myrcene and sabinene also had high PCA loading values, and were shown to play an important role in the characteristics of Flakee. On the other hand, thymol methyl ether and caryophyllenes, especially caryophyllene oxide, were representative volatiles in Kuroda. Thus, these volatiles might be useful as novel molecular markers in the development of new, high-quality carrots.

“…The presence of seven-carbon aldehydes in carrot was first reported by Buttery et al [20], who isolated them by using steam distillation at atmospheric pressure. These compounds, whose production is increased with heating, could originate from autoxidation of C 18 unsaturated fatty acids [21].…”

A solid-phase microextraction (SPME)-based method for the GC-MS analysis of volatiles in dehydrated carrot root samples has been developed and the effect of the most important factors (fibre coating, extraction temperature, equilibrium time and extraction time) on the fractionation of different volatiles has been studied. GC-MS chromatograms showed terpenoids relevant to carrot aroma such as alpha-pinene, sabinene, beta-myrcene, limonene, gamma-terpinene, terpinolene, trans-caryophyllene and beta-bisabolene, and several furan derivatives whose origin is discussed in this paper. As an example of application, this methodology has been used for the characterization of volatile composition of industrially dehydrated carrots. SPME followed by GC-MS is shown as an affordable, fast and solvent-free technique which can be performed with low sample amounts and be easily implemented at an industry for quality control purposes.

“…Different types of compounds released from carrots have been identified (Buttery et al, 1968;Simon et aL, 1980). The stimulatory activity of volatile plant components to butterflies has been investigated (Feeny et al, 1989;Baur et al, 1993).…”
