Application

  • Modulation of aroma and chemical composition of Albariño semi-synthetic wines by non-wine Saccharomyces yeasts and bottle aging This research identified ethyl 4-methylvalerate as significantly influencing the aroma profile of semi-synthetic wines, providing a distinct fruity note (D Pérez, M Denat, R Minebois, JM Heras… - Food …, 2022 - Elsevier).
  • Identification of aroma compounds in Zhuhoujiang, a fermented soybean paste in Guangdong China This article found ethyl 4-methylvalerate among key compounds contributing to the unique aroma intensity of the fermented product (Y Lu, Y Wang, G Zhao, Y Yao - Lwt, 2021 - Elsevier).
