How natural cork stoppers were described

Macerates of three natural cork stoppers in a wine-like medium were described as sweet, toasted, sweet wood and flowery-muscat, and gas chromatography–olfactometry found complex profiles of 10 to 20 aromatic compounds in them, unlike five synthetic stoppers.

SCOPE

Stoppers soaked in a wine-like liquid, not dry cork in air; the abstract does not name the natural stoppers' compounds.

SUPPORT CHECK

The statement the claim rests on was found word for word in the abstract fetched from the named service, and an editor read the full abstract against every part of the claim. Abstract from Europe PMC (ebi.ac.uk/europepmc).
