Application


  • Differentiation of Rums Produced from Sugar Cane Juice (Rhum Agricole) from Rums Manufactured from Sugar Cane Molasses by a Metabolomics Approach.: This study uses a metabolomics approach to differentiate between rums made from sugar cane juice and those from molasses, focusing on key flavor compounds such as gamma-dodecalactone. This research provides insight into the flavor chemistry of rum, supporting better understanding of food flavor and authenticity (Franitza et al., 2018).
