The provided JSON configuration outlines a detailed prompt for generating a comprehensive entry for a flavor and fragrance material, specifically (-)-cis-whiskey lactone (CAS: 80041-00-5), for FlavScents.com. The prompt is designed for a technical research assistant and emphasizes clarity, accuracy, and relevance to formulation and safety contexts. Here's a breakdown of the key components and requirements:
-
Identity & Chemical Information: This section requires detailed chemical identifiers, including common names, IUPAC name, CAS number, and other relevant identifiers. It also includes a brief discussion on the functional groups and structure-odor relevance.
-
Sensory Profile: Describes the odor and flavor characteristics, including intensity and typical sensory roles.
-
Natural Occurrence & Formation: Covers known natural sources and formation pathways, relevant to "natural flavor" or "natural fragrance" designations.
-
Use in Flavors: Details flavor categories, functional roles, typical use levels in ppm, and stability considerations.
-
Use in Fragrances: Describes fragrance families, functional roles, concentration ranges, and volatility.
-
Regulatory Status (Regional Overview): Summarizes regulatory treatment across different regions, including the US, EU, UK, Asia, and Latin America.
-
Toxicology, Safety & Exposure Considerations: Discusses safety in the context of oral, dermal, and inhalation exposure routes.
-
Practical Insights for Formulators: Provides expert insights on the material's value, synergies, and common formulation pitfalls.
-
Confidence & Data Quality Notes: Summarizes well-established data, industry practices, and known data gaps.
-
QA Check: A checklist to ensure all required sections are present, citation hooks are included, and specific requirements are met.
The prompt enforces a depth requirement, ensuring each section is substantively covered, with a target word count for single-compound materials and complex natural materials. It also specifies the use of citation hooks for linking to authoritative sources, ensuring the entry is well-supported by credible references. The output format is markdown, with a structured, numbered heading style.
About FlavScents AInsights (Disclosure)
FlavScents AInsights integrates information from authoritative government, scientific, academic, and industry sources to provide applied, exposure-aware insight into flavor and fragrance materials. Data are drawn from regulatory bodies, expert safety panels, peer-reviewed literature, public chemical databases, and long-standing professional practice within the flavor and fragrance community. Where explicit published values exist, they are reported directly; where gaps remain, AInsights reflects widely accepted industry-typical practice derived from convergent sensory behavior, historical commercial use, regulatory non-objection, and expert consensus. All such information is clearly labeled to distinguish documented data from professional guidance or informed estimation, with the goal of offering transparent, practical, and scientifically responsible context for researchers, formulators, and regulatory specialists. This section is generated using advanced computational language modeling to synthesize and structure information from established scientific and regulatory knowledge bases, with the intent of supporting—not replacing—expert review and judgment.
