General description
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one of the four categories of Greener Alternatives . This product is a Biobased products, showing key improvements in Green Chemistry Principles “Less Hazardous Chemical Syntheses” and “Use of Renewable Feedstock”.
Acetoin is a volatile flavor compound with a buttery odor and flavor. It is mainly found in Kefir and yogurt. Acetoin is used as a flavoring agent in butter, milk, shortening and baked goods.
Application
- Role of Volatile Organic Compounds Produced by Kosakonia cowanii Cp1 during Competitive Colonization Interaction against Pectobacterium aroidearum SM2.: This study investigates the role of volatile organic compounds, including acetoin, produced by Kosakonia cowanii Cp1 in inhibiting Pectobacterium aroidearum SM2, highlighting the potential of acetoin in biocontrol applications (Mena Navarro et al., 2024).
- Chemical imitation of yeast fermentation by the drosophilid-pollinated deceptive trap-flower Aristolochia baetica (Aristolochiaceae).: The research explores how Aristolochia baetica mimics yeast fermentation, including the production of acetoin, to attract drosophilid pollinators, emphasizing acetoin′s role in plant-pollinator interactions (Rupp et al., 2024).
- Investigating the impact of various sorghum types on the key aroma compounds of Sichuan Xiaoqu Baijiu through application of the sensomics approach.: This study examines how different sorghum types influence the key aroma compounds, including acetoin, in Sichuan Xiaoqu Baijiu, demonstrating acetoin′s significance in food and beverage flavor profiles (Ma et al., 2024).
- Regulation of Tetramethylpyrazine Formation by the Phenolics-Fenton Coupled Redox Cycling System.: The research delves into the biochemical pathways regulated by acetoin in the formation of tetramethylpyrazine, providing insights into its role in flavor compound biosynthesis (Xu et al., 2024).
- Design of a synthetic enzyme cascade for the in vitro fixation of formaldehyde to acetoin.: This paper presents the development of a synthetic enzyme cascade to convert formaldehyde to acetoin, showcasing its potential in biotechnological applications for formaldehyde detoxification (Cui et al., 2024).

How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?
1 answer-
If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?
1 answer-
Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
