Alcohols vs Aldehydes
Threshold values of alcoholic “green” odors range from 8.1 x 109 to 8.1 x 1011 molecules/ cm3 while the threshold values of aldehyde “green” odors range from 8.1 x 107 to 8.1 x 1011 molecules/ cm3. Statistical analysis shows that the aldehyde “green” odors scored significantly lower thresholds than alcohol “green” odors (Wilcoxon signed rank test; p< 0.01).
