The authors describe the design and evaluation of a new sysstem to quickly analyze the headspace of a previously equilibrated vial. Specifically, they report how routine analysis of volatiles from fruit juices can be sampled and concentrated using a static headspace method and rapidly analyzed by high-speed GC.
