Summary

Summary

Presents the most advanced methods of isolating volatile compounds from plants. Explores how different methods yield different isolates, allowing for identification of the volatile substances responsible for the aromas of flowers, fruits and vegetables. Also covers some of their medicinal, physiological, and psychological effects on humans. Describes some of the latest studies on insect attractants and repellants that show the correlation between volatile compounds from plants and insect responses. Includes contributions from notable perfume and flavor chemists, from industry, government, and academia.
