Introduction
Here, we characterize and differentiate a raw broccoli sample and a broccoli sample that was processed to be sold frozen. Information on the volatile and semi-volatile compounds in food samples is often of interest because of their important contributions to taste, odor, and sometimes nutrition.
The Pegasus® BT rapidly provided information on these analytes in order to determine those that were sample-distinguishing showing some changes that occur during food processing. ChromaTOF brand software's automated data analysis tools and peak property filters were used to specifically focus on sulfur-containing compounds. GC-TOFMS let you uncover more than in your standard analysis.
