Branched chain aldehydes: production and breakdown pathways and relevance for flavour in foods [PDF]
Branched aldehydes, such as 2-methyl propanal and 2- and 3-methyl butanal, are important flavour compounds in many food products, both fermented and non-fermented (heat-treated) products. The production and degradation of these aldehydes from amino acids
