Abstract

By application of the aroma extract dilution analysis of gulupa (Passiflora edulis Sims fo edulis), fruit pulp extract obtained by solvent-assisted flavour extraction, and also comparison of chromatographic, spectroscopic (mass spectrum), and odour properties with standards, β-ionone, γ-nonalactone, ethyl butanoate, and ethyl cinnamate were identified as volatiles exhibiting the highest flavour dilution (FD) factor. Among the nineteen odour-active compounds of gulupa, only those showing the highest FD factors were quantified by stable isotope dilution assay. After calculation of odour activity values (OAVs; ratio of concentration to odour threshold in water), ethyl butanoate, ethyl hexanoate, and β-ionone were identified as key aroma compounds in gulupa, responsible for the fruity and floral odour notes.
