Chemistry and Technology of Flavours
A.Y. 2025/2026
Learning objectives
"The educational objective of the course is to provide students knowledge on the structure of aroma compounds
of vegetable origins, nature-identical, obtained by chemical synthesis or from biorechnological processes. The course will also provide students knowledge on extraction technologies of aroma compounds from vegetables, as well as the basics of chemical synthesis to obtain food aroma compounds. The course will provide students principles of food formulation and analytical chemistry of aroma compounds."
