Every one of its 15 compounds carries a paper the library can cite.

• 1,8-cineolearomaterpenoidreads as camphor-like odor (PubChem)Measured in 38 of 338 ingredients.cite

  71 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents — the smallest identified compound at or above the 70 µg/L cut this profile uses — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'eucalyptol')
• eugenolaromaphenolreads as odor of cloves (PubChem)Measured in 19 of 338 ingredients.cite

  26 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents, classed by the table as a benzenoid/phenylpropanoid rather than a terpenoid — one of only five non-terpenoid identified compounds in the inventory. Included below the 70 µg/L cut because the paper states that in its bitters dataset 'clove aroma was spatially associated with eugenol and its derivatives', and clove is one of the two descriptors the panel used most for the whole Angostura mixture (8 counts out of twelve, tied with cola). — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'eugenol'; the sensory tie is stated in the Introduction's account of the authors' earlier bitters survey)
• linaloolaromaalcoholreads as spicy, citrus taste (PubChem)Measured in 91 of 338 ingredients.cite

  42 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents — the third value reconciling the supplementary inventory with the main-text table — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'linalool')
• alpha-pinenearomaterpenoidreads as odor of turpentine (PubChem)Measured in 71 of 338 ingredients.cite

  286 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'alpha-pinene')
• γ‑terpinenearomaterpenoidMeasured in 44 of 338 ingredients.cite

  715 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents, fourth-largest in the headspace inventory — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'gamma-terpinene')
• p-cymenearomaterpenoidreads as mild pleasant odor (PubChem)Measured in 42 of 338 ingredients.cite

  736 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents, third-largest in the headspace inventory — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'p-cymene')
• β-phellandrenearomaterpenoidreads as burning taste (PubChem)Measured in 18 of 338 ingredients.cite

  2123 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents — the second-largest component of the headspace, a terpenoid — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'beta-phellandrene')
• terpinolenearomaterpenoidreads as terpene taste (PubChem)Measured in 38 of 338 ingredients.cite

  275 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'terpinolene')
• beta-pinenearomaterpenoidreads as terpene odor (PubChem)Measured in 55 of 338 ingredients.cite

  79 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'Beta-pinene')
• sabinenearomaterpenoidMeasured in 32 of 338 ingredients.cite

  330 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'sabinene')
• limonenearomaterpenoidreads as pleasant lemon-like (PubChem)Measured in 91 of 338 ingredients.cite

  4521 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents — the largest single component of the Angostura headspace by a factor of two and about 40% of the table's stated 11,257 µg/L total; classed by the table as a terpenoid — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2 (Headspace volatile composition of Angostura bitters), row 'limonene')
• 3-carenearomaterpenoidMeasured in 19 of 338 ingredients.cite

  137 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents — the last identified compound above 100 µg/L in the inventory — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row '3-carene')
• myrcenearomaterpenoidreads as pleasant (PubChem)Measured in 68 of 338 ingredients.cite

  205 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'beta-myrcene')
• alpha-terpinyl acetatearomaterpenoidMeasured in 9 of 338 ingredients.cite

  535 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents, fifth-largest in the headspace inventory — the value that reconciles the supplementary table with the main text and proves the column mapping — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'alpha-terpinyl acetate')
• caryophyllenearomaterpenoidMeasured in 50 of 338 ingredients.cite

  84 µg/L in 2-undecanone equivalents — the second of the two values that reconcile the supplementary inventory with the main-text table — Johnson Arielle J. et al. 2019, Scientific Reports (Supplementary Table S2, row 'caryophyllene')
