The nonaqueous lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution of racemic 2-methyl-1-pentanol in a continuously operated fixed bed reactor was theoretically and experimentally studied. A 2-dimensional mathematical model was developed to predict the performance of the heterogeneous enantioselective biotransformation and to optimize the productivity

Volatile compositions and sensory characteristics of 11 commercially distilled soju samples were investigated using headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and sensory descriptive analysis. A total of 59 major volatile compounds, consisting of 32 esters, 10 alcohols

The effects of single and twofold continuous pressure change technology (PCT) applications on the volatiles and sensory characteristics of pineapple juice were studied. Fresh and thermally pasteurised juices were additionally characterised. 128 volatiles were tentatively assigned in the four juices.
