Lemon samples

The cluster analysis is shown Fig. 5. All of the essential oils, except for lime oil E, were classified into the species clusters. As stated above, the most likely reason for lime oil being the outlier was that the sample was a mixture of oils. Regarding the yuzu oils, it is noteworthy that the essential oils from Yamagata, Kochi, Shizuoka and Tokushima prefectures, which each had a high sensory evaluation, were classified into the same cluster, which is in accordance with the findings in our previous report. (10) The artificial lemon flavor essence and the lemon CPO from Wakayama Prefecture in Japan were classified into the same cluster as the commercial lemon samples. This clearly shows that the artificial lemon flavor essence is based on a natural lemon CPO starting material.

The determination of hydrocarbons is not often required, but is a matter of some importance in the case of the so-called terpeneless and sesquiterpeneless oils, especially those of lemon, many commercial samples of which contain appreciable quantities of hydrocarbons. 

FICURE10.il A pH meter is a voltmeter that measures the pH electrochemically. The two samples are (a) orange juice and (b) lemon juice. Notice that the lemon juice has a lower pH and hence a higher concentration of hydronium ions. 

The preparation of the lemon juice for analysis was simple, a sample of the lemon juice was filtered and 5 pi placed on the column. The separation was carried out on a novel bonded phase carrying amino-propyl groups. The separation obtained is shown in figure 11.

The concentrations of O17 used in the work of Jackson, Lemons, and Taube proved too low for very accurate determination of hydration numbers. Water samples more highly enriched in O17 should provide the basis for important studies of solvation phenomena in solution. This approach could be extended to other solvent systems such as liquid ammonia, amines, and acetonitrile (N14 or N16 resonances), ethers, sulfur dioxide, and di-methylsulfoxide (O17), and BrF3 (F19). 

Viability of Starch Derivatives as Flavoring Encapsulants. The capillary GC vapor phase flux term (defined by a percent external standard or ZEStD flux) previously described (34) was used to screen starch derivatives (oxidized, dextrinized and/or covalent amino acid linkage) as to their flavor encapsulation potential. The samples were prepared as previously described (34) with the exception of an added reduced pressure deaeration step, thus allowing the use of the headspace diffusivity versus retention standard curves to predict volatile lemon oil retention following spray drying. 

The finished polymer was to act as an "improved" wall material and, therefore, the ablity of this polymer to reduce the vapor-phase flux of lemon oil (from an aqueous sample) was the preselected flagging procedure. 

Figures 1-4 illustrate the IFT behavior of four citrus oils against water as a function of time at different temperatures. All but one of the lemon oil 2 and orange oil 2 runs were made with triple distilled water. All lemon oil 1 and orange oil 1 runs were made with mono distilled water. Surface tension of the two water samples differed by 0.2 dynes/cm (mean of 6 runs). This difference is not believed to make a major contribution to the IFT aging behavior observed.

Aldehyde content is considered an important flavor note included in the standard of identities for citrus oils. The flavor strength of an oil is based on the aldehyde content, where higher is better. The two major aldehydes are acetaldehyde and octanal. The quantification of aldehydes is based on the reaction of citral in the sample with a hydroxylamine solution, followed by titration with KOH in the presence of ethyl orange indicator. It is modified from AOAC Method 955.32 (AOAC, 1990c Redd et al., 1986). This method was originally developed for lemon oils however, it is applicable to other citrus oils. 

A lower pH value indicates a more acidic sample due to more free H30+, and a higher pH value indicates a more basic sample. For example, lemon juice has an acidic pH (pH 2), whereas egg whites have a basic pH (pH 9). An accurate pH measurement is usually determined instrumentally with a pH meter. 

During the course of the reduction small samples are abstracted by means of a rod. It will be noticed that at first a yellowish-red crystalline solid is formed on the rod, then a red crystalline solid, and ultimately all trace of red disappears and a lemon-yellow crystalline solid is formed. When this stage is reached further addition of zinc is stopped, and the whole is allowed to run for J hour, external heat being applied. In all about 160 gms. of zinc dust will be necessary, the amount, of course, depending on the metallic content of the dust.
