Enhanced Odour Profiling of Strawberries Using TD–GC–TOF MS

This Application Note describes the application of a BenchTOF time-of-flight mass spectrometer to enhance the detection of trace-level components in the headspace gas above fresh strawberries. At the same time, the versatility of TargetView compound identification software is demonstrated by an ‘all-component’ search against NIST and by a targeted search for various odour-active sulfur compounds.
