Article Synopsis
  • - A new method was developed to measure six specific thiols in hops and beer without using organic mercury compounds, involving silver ion solid phase extraction and gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.
  • - The method showed good linearity and recovery rates (74-100% for hops and 79-113% for beer), with low limits of detection for the thiols below their odor thresholds in beer.
  • - Among the measured thiols, 4-methyl-4-sulfanylpentan-2-one (4MSP) and 3-sulfanyl-4-methylpentan-1-ol (3S4MP) are particularly significant for contributing to the flavor of different hop varieties in beers. *
