IOFI recommended practice for the use of predicted relative‐response factors for the rapid quantification of volatile flavouring compounds by GC‐FID

This recommended practice enables the quantification of volatile compounds in flavourings to be made by gas chromatography with flame‐ionization detection, without having authentic compounds available, and also in many cases it can avoid time‐consuming calibration procedures. The relative‐response factors (RRF) can be predicted from the molecular formula of the compound, and this approach can be applied to compounds containing the atoms C, H, O,...
