Figure 3
Enhanced floral volatiles in scented tea probably due to tea adsorption. (a) Volatiles with high abundances present in the scented tea; (b) volatiles with less abundances present in the scented tea; (c) volatiles present in scented tea only. (d) Volatiles present in the headspace of fresh jasmine flowers. ST: scented green tea infusion; NT: nonscented tea infusion; JF: jasmine flower; ND: not detected. Duncan’s new multiple range test was performed and the columns labeled with the same letter within the same compound had no significant difference among the tested samples, . NS: no significant difference detected.
