Application:

  • Efficient identification of raw and ripe tung oil using headspace GC-MS.: This research demonstrates the use of headspace gas chromatography-mass spectrometry for identifying components, including methyl octanoate, in tung oil. The method offers applications in quality control and authentication of oil products (Xu et al., 2021 ).

  • Chemical kinetic study of the oxidation of a biodiesel-bioethanol surrogate fuel: methyl octanoate-ethanol mixtures.: The paper investigates the oxidation kinetics of methyl octanoate and ethanol mixtures, providing insights into their use as biofuels. This study is significant for the development of renewable energy sources (Togbe et al., 2010 ).
General description: Methyl octanoate has been identified in the volatile flavor fractions of blue cheese and soursop.
