“…The DVB/CAR/PDMS coating contains both adsorbents that are layered to extend the molecular weight range of analytes extracted with one SPME fiber and the combination with the PDMS, an absorptive-type fiber that also confers a bipolar character ( Shirey, 2012 ; Godage and Gionfriddo, 2019 ; Carriço et al, 2020 ). This arrangement explains the high performance of the DVB/CAR/PDMS fiber for a wide range of chemical species and the fact that it is extensively used for profiling of volatile molecules released from various food items, such as table and fortified wine ( Perestrelo et al, 2011 ; Santos et al, 2013 ; Welke et al, 2014 ; Whitener et al, 2016 ; Rocha et al, 2021 ), beer ( Sterckx et al, 2010 ; Rodriguez-Bencomo et al, 2012 ; Romero-Medina et al, 2020 ), sea salt ( Donadio et al, 2011 ; Silva et al, 2015 ), pear ( Wang et al, 2019 ; Fonseca et al, 2020 ), distilled beverages ( Thibaud et al, 2020 ), coffee ( Ongo et al, 2020 ; Lopes et al, 2021 ), elderberry ( Salvador et al, 2016 ), hazelnut ( Cordero et al, 2010 ; Rosso et al, 2020 ), honey ( Čajka et al, 2007 ; Siegmund et al, 2018 ), dairy products ( Cardinali et al, 2021 ; Székelyhidi et al, 2021 ; Liu et al, 2022 ), virgin olive oil ( Purcaro et al, 2014 ; Ros et al, 2019 ), and cereals ( Buśko et al, 2010 ). Indeed, DVB/CAR/PDMS fiber exhibited the highest sorption capacity for a wide range of VOCs released from honey, comparing with six other fiber coatings ( Čajka et al, 2007 ).…”
