Relationships of Apple Sensory Attributes to Headspace Volatiles, Soluble Solids, and Titratable Acids

Abstract
Correlations between sensory attributes and concentrations of headspace volatiles, soluble solids, and titratable acids of ‘Golden Delicious’ and ‘York Imperial’ apples (Malus domestica Borkh.) were examined. Stepwise regression analysis indicated that variation of sweetness of ‘York Imperial’ and acidity of ‘Golden Delicious’ and ‘York Imperial’ can be accounted for in part by soluble solids, titratable acids, and headspace volatiles of apples. Astringency, mustiness, starchiness, and floral-fruitiness correlated poorly with the volatiles, soluble solids, and titratable acids.
