Determination of Plant Volatiles Using Solid Phase Microextraction GC–MS

Abstract: This experiment combines analytical techniques of solid phase microextraction and gas chromatography−mass spectrometry with easily relatable and accessible plant volatile chemistry (floral and vegetative scents of local/available plants). The biosynthesis and structure of these chemicals are of interest in the areas of organic chemistry, biochemistry, and molecular biology. This laboratory exercise is well-suited for a broad range of cross-disciplinary topics in chemistry and biology courses. The methods descr… Show more

“…In previous studies [ 21 ], VOCs were collected from vines individually enclosed in bags using fibres coated with divinylbenzene (DVB), carboxen (CAR), and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) has proved to be a useful tool to collect plant VOCs [ 22 ]. It uses a fused silica fibre coated with a polymeric material to adsorb and pre-concentrate volatile compounds.…”

“…There is an ongoing trend for the use of miniaturized VOC sampling devices because of the simplicity of their application without consumption or interference of important peaks in the GC by organic solvents (Lan et al ., 2020). Since its introduction in the 1990s, solid phase microextraction (SPME) (Figures 1 and 2a) has become a widely popular tool to trap plant VOCs in the lab, the field, or even the classroom (Fung et al ., 2019b; Gharaei et al ., 2020; Van Bramer and Goodrich, 2015). The passive/static sampling technique relies on the adsorption and thermal desorption of compounds from an inert fiber, which is coated with different types of adsorbents of varying polarity and thickness depending on the type of collected compounds and their concentration (Tholl et al ., 2006; Zhu et al ., 2013).…”
