Abstract

Maltol compounds in the refinery process were determined, and each concentration of sweet-aroma of refinery molasses was compared by sensory test. The concentration of maltol compounds in molasses increased as boiling step proceeded and reached a maximum in final molasses. The intensity of sweet-aroma perceived by sensory test showed a similary tendency. There was a close relationship between them. Maltol compounds were produced more easily by the thermal degradation of fructose and glucose that of sucrose.
