Flavor Compound Library

Catalog No. L6170

The flavor is a result of complex chemical process triggered by molecules influencing both olfactory and gustatory sensations. Flavor molecules can regulate metabolic processes as well as define taste and aroma. These molecules existing in nature have been indispensable throughout human history. However, synthetic replication has seen limited success. Flavor molecules are widely used across various sectors. For example, eugenol, extracted from cloves, is known for its strong clove aroma and is commonly used in candies and chewing gum to impart a distinctive flavor. Vanillin, a natural flavor with a rich vanilla aroma, is frequently used in baked goods, desserts, ice creams, and chocolates. Therefore, It’s of substantial value to establish a comprehensive library of flavor molecules, which encompass their natural sources, physicochemical properties, and sensory responses. According to data from FlavorDB, TargetMol has collected 420 flavor compounds. This library not only facilitates a deep understanding of the mechanisms and interactions behind flavors but also aids in optimizing formulations to enhance taste quality. The library provides a foundation for discovering natural flavor substances and helps explore the relationship between flavor compounds and health.
