Question

Explain production chemistry of apple and banana flavour?

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

Apple and banana flavors are influenced by the quantity and composition of volatile compounds. The volatiles that are well-known to affect fruit flavor include esters (fruity aroma), alcohols (fruity or earthy aroma), aldehydes (slightly grassy and bitter aroma), lactones (peach-like aroma), and terpenoids (scented oils aroma).The flavor intensity of a fruit can be correlated with the quantity and composition of volatiles present.
