Fast and Sensitive Measurement of Off-Flavors in Recirculating Aquaculture Systems. [PDF]
Rapid Commun Mass SpectromABSTRACT Rationale Geosmin and 2‐methylisoborneol (2‐MIB) are odor‐active compounds responsible for earthy off‐flavors in fish, creating significant quality concerns in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS). Their extremely low odor thresholds make rapid and highly sensitive detection essential for maintaining product quality and consumer acceptance ...

G3: Genes, Genomes, Genetics, 2021 Geosmin, a degraded sesquiterpene molecule with earthy and musty odor, imbues table beet with its characteristic aroma. Geosmin is heritable and endogenously produced in table beet; its earthy aroma is sought by some consumers but deters others.

Biosynthesis of the Fully Saturated C<sub>16</sub> Homosesquiterpene Descartane Through Deprotonation With Cyclopropanation. [PDF]
Angew Chem Int Ed EnglA non‐canonical C16 sesquiterpene synthase from Morganella morganii produces the unusual scaffold descartane. Its cyclisation mechanism was rationalised by isotopic labelling experiments and DFT calculations. Site‐directed mutagenesis altered enzyme function, resulting in alternative products, including voltairene, which requires a different ...

Producers and drivers of odor compounds in a large drinking-water source
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023 IntroductionTaste and odor (T&O) problems have been affecting drinking water safety. As a eutrophicated drinking water reservoir in Tianjin city, the Yuqiao Reservoir was threatened by 2-MIB and geosmin in recent years.MethodsIn this study, quantile ...

Dryland Soil Rewetting Induces Strong Volatile Organic Compound Emissions With Potential to Form Ozone and Aerosols [PDF]
Global change biology.Rainfall after drought triggers strong petrichor VOC emissions from dryland soils. These emissions are chemically diverse, shaped by aridity and soil microbial community, and can increase regional ozone and secondary organic aerosol formation potentials.

The Chemical Ecology of Geosmin [PDF]
, 2021 Known as the smell of earth after rain, geosmin is an odorous terpene detectable by humans at picomolar concentrations. Geosmin production is heavily conserved in actinobacteria, myxobacteria, cyanobacteria, some fungi and red beets (Beta vulgaris L ...

Construction and application of the genome-scale metabolic model of Streptomyces radiopugnans
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023 Geosmin is one of the most common earthy-musty odor compounds, which is mainly produced by Streptomyces. Streptomyces radiopugnans was screened in radiation-polluted soil, which has the potential to overproduce geosmin.

Geosmin (Taste & Odor) Prediction Study
, 2023 Geosmin is an unpleasant taste and odor compound naturally occuring in some water bodies that requires treatment. It produces a musty, earthy smell and taste in drinking water; however, it is not harmful at levels present in drinking water.
