durian due to disappearance of the major sulfur
compounds in fresh durian such as diethyl trisulfide,
N-dimethylthioisophinyl-3-amino and dipropyl
disulfide, and generation of some alcohol, ester and
carboxylic acid components in fermented durian.
There was also no substantially change of the major
non sulfur compounds responsible to the fruity aroma
such as ethyl 2-methyl butanoate and ethyl propanoate,
however there were absence of 6 flavor volatile ester.
Nevertheless, the flavor of fermented durian was
relatively not nice and lack of fruity aroma. This is
because of the composition of the flavor components
in fermented durian may have to possess a not wellbalanced
fruity and sulfur like aroma. This finding
suggests that there is need in depth understanding and
controlling the mechanisms of volatile compounds
synthesis, in particularly the sulfur compounds,
during durian pulp lactic fermentation.
