二甲基三硫化物（DMTS）是一种挥发性硫化物（VSC），是油菜类蔬菜的主要香气成分。啤酒老化过程中会形成二甲基三硫化物。据报道，它是造成常见恶臭的真菌癌症样本。是一种重要的味觉和嗅觉（TO）引起的化合物在中国，主要与脓毒性/沼泽气味有关。它已通过微胞藻属鉴定为产生气味的常见化合物（腐烂时）。颗粒状活性炭（GAC）对藻类气味剂二甲基三硫化物的吸附已有报告。 Dimethyl trisulfide (DMTS), a volatile sulfur compound (VSC), is a major aroma consituent in cooked Brassicaceous vegetables. Dimethyl trisulfide formation is reported during beer aging. It has been reported to be responsible for common malodour from fungating cancer samples. It is an important taste and odor (T&O)-causing compound in China, mainly associated with the septic/swampy odor. It has been identified as a common odor-producing compound by Microcystis (on its decay). Granular activated carbon (GAC) adsorption of dimethyl trisulfide, an algal odorant, has been reported. Dimethyl trisulfide is reported as a major aroma component in cooked Brassicaceous vegetables. Trap baits containing dimethyl trisulfide have been used to capture Calliphora loewi and other blowflies. Dimethyl trisulfide along with dimethyl sulfide and dimethyl disulfide have been confirmed as volatile compounds given off by the fly-attracting plant known as dead-horse arum (Helicodiceros muscivorus). These flies are attracted to the odor of fetid meat and help pollinate this plant.
