Organoleptic Properties

Odor Type: Meaty
meaty, roasted, scallion, onion, sulfurous, meaty roasted meaty, savory, chicken
General comment At 0.10 % in propylene glycol. meaty roasted scallion onion sulfury
Mosciano, Gerard P&F 26, No. 5, 68, (2001) At 1.00 % in propylene glycol. Sulfurous, strong roasted meaty with a note reminiscent of sulfurol, savory, au jus and chicken nuances
Flavor Type: Meaty
meaty, sulfurous, brothy, roasted, savory, cooked, onion, garlic, pepper black pepper
Mosciano, Gerard P&F 26, No. 5, 68, (2001) At 0.00 - 0.10 ppm. Strong meaty, sulfurous, brothy with a hint of thiamin, roasted savory, with nuances of cooked onion, sauteed garlic and black pepper
Has a full meat flavour and a ccoked meat aroma when used in soup base at a concemntration of 0.2ppm. Has a full meat flavour
METHYLFURYL DISULFIDE adds along with its typical meaty profile, nice creamy and milky effects. It can be used in lower dosages (5 to 10 ppb) to add fatty notes to hazelnut and chocolate flavors. Very powerful meaty, brothy and roasted notes
