Application

  • Odor compound prioritization in water: A study employed machine learning models combined with non-target analysis to prioritize odorous compounds like 2-Methylisoborneol in surface water, enhancing the effectiveness of environmental monitoring and treatment strategies (Huang et al., 2024).
  • Water treatment with carbon materials: The study explored the use of Spirulina-based carbon materials as adsorbents for removing 2-Methylisoborneol from drinking water, also assessing the cyto-genotoxic effects, thus contributing to safer and more effective water treatment solutions (Antonopoulou et al., 2024).
  • Quantification in aquaculture: Improved methods for quantifying 2-Methylisoborneol in farmed fish were developed using stable isotope dilution gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, facilitating better management of water quality in aquaculture environments (Dupre et al., 2024).

The occurrence of the taste and odour compounds geosmin and 2-methyl isoborneol (2-MIB) affects the organoleptic quality of raw waters from drinking water reservoirs worldwide. UV-based oxidation processes for the removal of these substances are an alternative to adsorption and

Globally, aquaculture systems with water recirculation experience increasing problems with microbial taste and odor compounds (TOCs) such as geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol (MIB). This study investigated the content of geosmin and MIB in water and the flesh of 200 rainbow trouts
Lior Guttman et al.
Applied and environmental microbiology, 78(2), 363-370 (2011-11-15)
Using a relatively simple enrichment technique, geosmin and 2-methylisoborneol (MIB)-biodegrading bacteria were isolated from a digestion basin in an aquaculture unit. Comparison of 16S rRNA gene sequences affiliated one of the three isolates with the Gram-positive genus Rhodococcus, while the

A variety of factors affecting water quality in recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS) are associated with the occurrence of off-flavours. In this study, we report the impact of water quality on the bacterial diversity and the occurrence of the geosmin-synthesis gene
Kishore Kumar Krishnani et al.
Reviews of environmental contamination and toxicology, 194, 1-27 (2007-12-12)
Microbially derived off-flavors can adversely affect the beverage, food, water, and aquaculture industries. Off-flavor can temporarily be controlled by adopting best management practices such as proper aeration, liming, and dredging, and, more importantly, by avoidance of excessive nutrient use. Research
