In stored Kuerle fragrant pears, hexanal, ethyl hexanoate, ethyl butanoate, ethyl acetate, hexyl acetate, ethanol, α-farnesene and butyl acetate were among the dominant volatiles, gas chromatography–olfactometry indicated that the collected volatiles were responsible for the pear's aroma, and during storage some aroma-related volatiles increased while others, especially esters, decreased.
SCOPE
One pear variety (Pyrus serotina) over months of storage.
