Volatile Organic Compounds in Every Day Food

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) have been analyzed in drinking water and pharmaceuticals extensively in recent years. Now VOCs in food products have became a major interest among researchers. By utilizing an Atomx, an automated VOC sample prep system in conjunction with a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) will allow for the determination of VOCs in food products. The automated sample prep system will utilize two extraction methods; direct purge in the vial and automated methanol extraction.
