LCGC International spoke to Adrián de la Fuente and Silvia Valverde Bastardo from the University of Valladolid, Spain, about the development of a miniaturized headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography–quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC–QTOF-MS) method for the analysis of biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) emitted by native Spanish trees.

University of Valladolid scientists used a miniaturized method for analyzing biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) emitted by tree species, using headspace solid-phase microextraction coupled with gas chromatography and quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC–QTOF-MS) has been developed.
