Determination of volatile organic compounds from truffles via SPME-GC-MS

J Chromatogr Sci. 2004 Jul;42(6):299-305. doi: 10.1093/chromsci/42.6.299.

Abstract

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of nine Tuber species and two corresponding forms are identified via solid-phase microextraction-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry analysis. Seventy-five compounds are identified. The most abundant are dimethylsulphide, 2- and 3-methylbutanal, 2-methylpropanol, and butanone.
