General description

Ethyl benzoate belongs to the class of aromatic esters.
This substance is listed on the positive list of the EU regulation 10/2011 for plastics intended to come into contact with food. Find all available reference materials for compounds listed in 10/2011 here

Application

Ethyl benzoate may be used as an analytical reference standard for the determination of ethyl benzoate in:
  • Japanese soy sauce by headspace solid-phase microextraction-aroma extraction dilution analysis-gas chromatography-olfactometry (HS-SPME-AEDA-GC-O) as well as GC combined with mass spectrometry (GC-MS).
  • Honeybush tea (Cyclopia spp.) by HS-SPME and comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography (GC x GC) with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TOFMS).
  • Cherry wine samples by HS-SPME coupled to GC-MS equipped with electron impact (EI) ionization, and selective ion monitoring (SIM) detection.
  • Monstera diliciosa fruits by HS-SPME-GC with quadrupole EI-MS.

The volatile composition of honeybush (Cyclopia) species was studied by comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled to time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC-TOF-MS). Headspace-solid phase micro-extraction (HS-SPME) was used to extract the volatile compounds from tea infusions prepared from the three species C.
