The mass spectrometer was made possible under a $67 000 grant to Dr. E. A. Day and Dr. H. W. Schultz from the National Institute of Health, U. S. Public Health Service. Studies on the chemistry of natural food flavors are compli cated because many compounds may constitute a single flavor, and most flavor compounds oc cur in extremely low concentra tions, it was noted. Flavors are also elusive and easily destroyed during isola tion from foods and subsequent identification. With the aid of mass spectrometry in combina tion with gas chromatography. Dr. Day and his associates hope to more clearly define food flav ors, learn what mechanisms are involved in flavor development and why flavors sometimes de teriorate in foods. Only One Dr. Day points out that OSU's Food Science Department is the only one in the country with a mass spectrometer. With the aid of the instrument, scientists will be able to obtain information on flavor compounds in a frac tion of the time required by conventional micro chemical methods. OSU's research program in flavor chemistry has two main objectives: to define natural flpvors, and to learn what mech anisms are responsible for flav or production and deterioration.
