Abstract
An increase in the ratio of surface to volume in strawberries and bananas using macerating enzymes does not result in an increase of the metabolic activities involved in aroma biosynthesis. Feeding strawberry segments with shortchain fatty acids as precursors under specific conditions causes a continuous increase of various fruit-typical aroma compounds and lasts for more than 36 h. In macerates of strawberries, upon addition of the above precursors, the biosynthesis of methyl esters of various unbranched fatty acids (C12-C18) is the most important GC-detectable change. The same maceration method applied to banana pulp yields macerates with an ester content which remains constant for some hours. A number of facts show that the enzymic commination of the fruit tissues is followed by a wound induced reorganisation of metabolic path-ways, with the principal capability to form carboxylic esters remaining for more than four days.
