Keywords:

  • instrumental analysis of seafood flavour;
  • complex flavour of seafood - important nonvolatile taste- and aroma-active components;
  • volatile (aroma) constituents - key to flavour perception;
  • headspace sampling techniques - taking advantage of aroma compound volatility;
  • static headspace sampling (SHS) - simplest among headspace techniques;
  • solid phase microextraction (SPME), new technique for rapid, solventless extraction of volatile compounds;
  • in-tube sorptive and headspace sorptive extractions - in field of food analysis;
  • Tandem GC-MS, technique of choice for analysis of volatile food flavour;
  • electron impact mass spectrometry (EI-MS) - common mass spectral technique used in flavour analysis;
  • classic tandem GC-MS based method - most predominant
