Effect of gamma-Irradiation on the Volatile Organic Compounds from Leek (Allium tuberosum R.)

  • 1. Chosun University, Gwangju (Korea, Republic of)

Description

Volatile compounds of γ-irradiated leeks (Aillum tuberosum R.) were isolated by simultaneous steam distillation and extraction method (SDE) and analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) along with the non-irradiated sample. Leeks were irradiated at dose of 20 kGy and non-irradiated samples were considered as control sample. 56 and 54 compounds were identified in non-irradiated and irradiated samples, respectively. These components included the functional groups; alcohols, aldehydes, esters, ketones, N- and S-containing compounds
