Oyster vs Mace: shared flavor compounds
0 of 141 flavor compounds are shared (Jaccard 0.00) — the molecular basis for whether Oyster and Mace pair well or work as substitutes. Full side-by-side breakdown below.
“Reported” counts reflect the compounds characterized for each ingredient across the studies and databases we aggregate — a measure of coverage, not an exhaustive census. Different analyses target different compound classes and methods, so read these as what has been characterized, not the total number of molecules present. Jaccard measures shared coverage, so it rewards overlap rather than highlighting the ratio differences that distinguish two ingredients.
Where they differ: aroma character
Profile distance 0.64The Jaccard above measures overlap; this compares each ingredient’s aroma-family mix side by side — the wider the gap between the two bars, the more that family sets the ingredients apart. Oyster reads left, Mace reads right.
Shares are fractions of each ingredient’s labeled compounds (102 of 107 for Oyster, 32 of 34 for Mace) — compositional lean, not concentration. Aroma labels come from our compound enrichment and cover most, but not all, characterized molecules.
