| Abstract: | This study was conducted to determine the volatile flavor composition of fresh changpo (Acorus calamus var. angustatus Bess) leaves quantitatively and qualitatively by use of two internal standards and to determine which volatile compounds are primarily responsible for the aroma of this aquatic herb. The headspace composition of fresh changpo leaves was also analyzed by a solid-phase microextraction method. Aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA) and sniffing test by gas chromatography-olfactometry were used for the detection of aroma-active compounds of this herb. According to the instrumental analyses of the changpo oil, octanoic acid (49.13%), alpha-cedrene (16.71%), alpha-phellandrene (4.46%), and gamma-elemene (3.75%) were the most abundant compounds. n-Butylidene dihydrophthalide (8.61%), trans,trans-farnesyl acetate (7.29%), and trans-2-dodecenal (7%) were the main components of changpo headspace. cis-beta-Farnesene was evaluated as the key aroma compound of this herb from results of AEDA and sniffing test. |
