Description

Fema 2194 CAS NO 7492-45-7 is a high-purity chemical compound, also known as 2-Methyl-3-furanthiol, valued for its potent, meaty aroma characteristics. This makes it an essential building block for creating authentic savory flavor profiles in a variety of consumer products. It is primarily sought after by flavor and fragrance manufacturers, food technologists, and R&D laboratories within the global food and beverage industry.

Application

• Flavor Creation: A key ingredient for replicating and enhancing meaty, savory, and roasted notes in reaction flavors, savory snacks, soups, sauces, and processed meats.
• Food & Beverage Industry: Used to impart authentic cooked meat, chicken, or beef aromas to vegetarian/vegan products, ready meals, and bouillons.
• Fragrance Formulation: Employed in trace amounts to add savory, roasted, or coffee-like nuances to fine fragrances and functional perfumery.
• Research & Development: Serves as a critical reference standard and intermediate for flavor chemists developing new flavor systems and studying Maillard reaction products.

Quality Control

Our Fema 2194 is produced and tested to meet stringent quality standards suitable for flavor and fragrance applications. Each batch is analyzed to ensure identity, purity, and organoleptic properties. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity (typically ≥98% by GC), specific gravity, refractive index, and organoleptic assessment is provided to guarantee consistency and compliance with customer and industry requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its highly volatile and light-sensitive nature, store in a cool, well-ventilated place at 2-8°C (refrigerated) or as specified on the label. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
