General description

Dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS), a volatile sulfur compound (VSC), is a major aroma consituent in cooked Brassicaceous vegetables. Dimethyl trisulfide formation is reported during beer aging.[1] It has been reported to be responsible for common malodour from fungating cancer samples.[2] It is an important taste and odor (T&O)-causing compound in China, mainly associated with the septic/swampy odor. It has been identified as a common odor-producing compound by Microcystis (on its decay). Granular activated carbon (GAC) adsorption of dimethyl trisulfide, an algal odorant, has been reported.

Application


  • Exploring the binding affinity and characteristics of DcitOBP9 in citrus psyllids.: This study investigates the binding properties of dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS) with DcitOBP9, an odorant-binding protein in citrus psyllids, providing insights into the potential role of DMTS in pest management strategies (Pei et al., 2024).

Changes in the aroma of sake during aging were investigated by aroma extract dilution analysis (AEDA) and quantitative analysis using the stir bar sorptive extraction method. In AEDA, more odor zones were detected in aged sake than in fresh sake.

Some advanced cancer patients suffer from pungent sulfury malodor. To determine the chemical identity of the odorant, we performed gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-olfactometry analysis of volatiles from fungating cancer wounds. We identified the source of the characteristic smell as dimethyl trisulfide

Hop S-methylcysteine sulfoxide has previously been postulated as the precursor of dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS) in beers. The present data point to 3-methylthiopropionaldehyde, the Strecker aldehyde issued from methionine, as another potential precursor in aged beers. Spiking either fresh beer or

Questions

  1. What means 'Sample-K'? Which amount is it?

    1 answer
    1. The SAMPLE-K quantities vary from product to product and lot to lot. There is no established quantity assigned. These are typically gram quantities intended for use in formulation evaluation, however some more expensive compounds may contain smaller amounts.
