K. Picuricjovanovic et M. Milovanovic, ANALYSIS OF VOLATILE COMPOUNDS IN ALMOND AND PLUM KERNEL OILS, Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society, 70(11), 1993, pp. 1101-1104
Almond and plum kernel oils were analyzed for volatile flavor componen
ts by headspace sampling, gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. Th
e most important volatiles at 37-degrees-C, from both fruit oils, are
derivatives of benzene, n-alkanes, cycloalkanes, aromatics and furan c
ompounds. The structures were established mainly by interpretation of
mass spectral data in comparison with literature data.
