Flavors and Fragrances from natural sources are both unique and effective. Some early flavors came from natural sources such as spices from the Far East and lemons from the Mediterranean. Early perfumes were based on a mixture of one or more essential oils, such as cinnamon, ginger, and rose in an alcoholic base. Today, flavors and fragrances can be found in many locations, from the kitchen to the bathroom, and the pharmacy to the spa.
Production of the elements of these flavors and fragrances can vary from extractions from harvested crops to purification from fermentation broths. Research into the chemistry of natural flavors and fragrances will further our understanding of the intricacies and appreciation of the nuances experienced by our olfactory and taste senses.
The Robertet Group: From Scientific Collaboration to Industrial CPC
Founded in 1850, The Robertet Group is a key player in the design and composition of fragrances, flavors, and natural raw materials. Working on a worldwide scale, the company generates net sales of more than 500 million euros per year. Gilson has been helping the company explore the potential of centrifugal partition chromatography (CPC) for almost six years.
The VERITY CPC Pilot System combines the PLC 2500 Purification System with a VERITY CPC 1000 PRO for high-level target compound purification. This automated, cost-effective, liquid-liquid purification technique utilizes reusable, silica-free chromatographic columns to streamline your workflow and allows you to quickly isolate specific molecules with high yields and purity.
The VERITY GPC Cleanup System is an ideal solution for post-extraction cleanup of high-molecular weight interfering substances from environmental samples, food products, and animal tissue prior to analysis using gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Removal of these contaminants leads to more reliable results, fewer sample repeats, and less downtime for downstream chromatography instruments.
