Analysis of Aroma Components in Milk Using Smart Aroma Database™

User Benefits

- Approximately 500 aroma-related components are registered in the Smart Aroma Database, supporting efficient analysis of aroma components. - Concentration of aroma components by SPME Arrow enables satisfactory analysis of milk in spite of its low concentration of aroma components.

Introduction

The aroma components of milk are one of the important factors that determine its deliciousness, but the components differ greatly depending on the milk producing area, animal feed, and milk sterilization and storage methods. However, due to the extremely low concentration of aroma components in milk, a comprehensive analysis of a large number of aroma components is considered difficult. In this experiment, six types of milk were sampled and their aroma components were concentrated by the solid phase microextraction method (SPME Arrow). The samples were then analyzed by a GC/MS using the Shimadzu aroma component database Smart Aroma Database, and a comparative study of the milk samples was conducted.
