Abstract
Sea grape pulp was extracted and the extract analysed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, resulting in identification of 34 volatile pulp components; these included 20 carboxylic acids, and only two esters and three aldehydes. One volatile component, cyclopentylacetic acid had not been reported earlier as a food component or food flavouring. Components quantified in sea grape pulp were fructose, glucose, sucrose, and ascorbic acid as well as total acid content.
