1. The document discusses analytical methods used for identification, separation, and quantification of fragrance and flavor materials. It describes several instruments commonly used including gas chromatography (GC), high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), infrared spectroscopy (IR), mass spectrometry (MS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and electronic nose (E-nose). 2. Examples of applications of these analytical techniques are provided, including the characterization of aroma compounds in soy paste and various Rhododendron species. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was used to analyze lemon essential oils and cinnamon bark oil. 3. One study used gas chromatography-olfactometry (GC-O)
