Determination of Volatile Compounds in Red Wine by Headspace-Solid Phase Microextraction (SPME) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS)

The volatile compounds in red wine were extracted by HS-SPME. Ninety-four compounds were detected and identified by GC-MS. Among of them, esters and alcohols were the main compounds in red wine on the basic of their concentration. The results indicated that HS-SPME combined with GC-MS was a good technique for analyzing volatile compounds in red wine. Compared with traditional methods, such technique was simple to operate and better results could be achieved.
