Determination of the key aroma compounds in Sachima and using solid phase micro extraction (SPME) and solvent-assisted flavour evaporation (SAFE)-gas chromatography-olfactometry-mass spectrometry (GC-O-MS)

The aroma-active compounds present in Sachima samples purchased at retail from the same batch code and stored for different durations of the shelf life were analysed by two methods: solid phase micro extraction (SPME) and solvent-assisted flavour evaporation (SAFE)-gas chromatography-olfactometry-mass spectrometry (GC-O-MS). A total of 41 volatile key compounds were identified. Among them, the predominant compounds in Sachima were tentatively...
