In 2019,European Food Research and Technology included an article by Nie, Cong-ning; Zhong, Xiao-xue; He, Li; Gao, Yuan; Zhang, Xiang; Wang, Cong-ming; Du, Xiao. Quality Control of Methyl Salicylate. The article was titled 《Comparison of different aroma-active compounds of Sichuan Dark brick tea (Camellia sinensis) and Sichuan Fuzhuan brick tea using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and aroma descriptive profile tests》. The information in the text is summarized as follows:
Sichuan dark brick tea (Camellia sinensis) and Sichuan Fuzhuan brick tea have signifcantly diferent aroma characteristics although both of them have almost the same processing methods. Thus, these two types of tea were used as the research materials to determine the diferences in their aroma compounds The volatile compounds in the two types of tea were identifed and quantifed by headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatog.-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC-MS), results showed that they both had 37 common volatile compounds Then the aroma-active components were identifed by odor activity value (OAV). It was found that SFBT had 20 aroma-active components, of which β-ionone had the largest OAV (199547.72). SDBT has 21 aroma-active ingredients (including all 20 aroma-active components of SFBT), of which β-ionone again has the largest OAV (114800.66). Finally, the aroma profile diferences between the two tea samples were studied by aroma profle tests, and the results showed that the main aroma diferences of SDBT and SFBT were caused by β-ionone, epoxydihydrolinalool II, Me salicylate, geranylacetone, nerolidol, benzaldehyde, benzyl acetate, nonanal, trans,trans-2,4-heptadienal and 1-octen-3-ol, in addition, defned SFBT’s ‘fungi fower aroma’ and SDBT’s ‘aged fragrance’ from the level of aroma monomer. In addition to this study using Methyl Salicylate, there are many other studies that have used Methyl Salicylate(cas: 119-36-8Quality Control of Methyl Salicylate) was used in this study.
Methyl Salicylate(cas: 119-36-8) has been used: as a component of clarifying solution for treating Mongolian gerbil cochlea intact for immunofluorescence analysis, as a plant elicitor to test its effect on reducing the whitefly population from tomato plants.Quality Control of Methyl Salicylate
