Volatile fingerprinting by Headspace-Solid-Phase Microextraction followed Direct Injection Mass Spectrometry (HS-SPME DIMS) has been assessed for the first time as an alternative approach to gas chromatographic methods GC-MS) rapid classification of honey botanical origin. In order fully evaluate potential SPME authentication, samples from different sources (eucalyptus, citrus, acacia, rosemary...

background and objectives: analytical methods for volatile organic compounds (vocs) in different samples need extraction of compounds, by applying hazardous solvents. solid phase micro-extraction (spme) is a solvent-free equilibrium extraction method, in which proper calibration can allow quantitative determinations of vocs at a very good sensitivity without the use of any organic solvent. vocs...

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a common mycotoxin present in agricultural and food products. Therefore, rapid screening methods must be developed for AFB1 detection with high sensitivity good selectivity. In this study, we an analytical method based on the combination of solid-phase microextraction (SPME) carbon fiber ionization (CFI)-mass spectrometry (MS) to detect presence trace from complex samples...

Abstract An analytical method using gas chromatography isotope ratio mass spectrometry (GC-IRMS) combined with solid phase micro-extraction (SPME) was developed to measure the δ 13C values of six typical volatiles commonly occurring in wine (isoamyl acetate, 2-octanone, limonene, 2-phenylethanol, ethyl octanoate and decanoate) for first time. SPME selected a divinylbenzene/carboxen/polydimethyl...

Smokeless powder additives are usually detected from an extraction of post-blast residues or unburned powder particles followed by chromatographic analyses. This work presents the first comprehensive study of the detection of volatile and semi-volatile additives of smokeless powders using solid phase microextraction (SPME) as a sampling and pre-concentration technique. The goal of this study is...

Determination of quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) often is considered to be a challenging undertaking owing to secondary interactions of the analytes' permanently charged quaternary ammonium head or hydrophobic tail with the utilized labware. Here, for the first time, a micelle assisted thin-film solid phase microextraction (TF-SPME) using a zwitterionic detergent 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dime...
