The aroma profile of “tiger nut beverage” (orxata de
xufla) was investigated by headspace solid- phase micro-extraction (HS-SPME)
combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC- MS). Polidimethilsiloxane/divinylbenzene
(PDMS/DVB), carboxen/polydimethylsiloxane (CAR/ PDMS), polyacrylate (PA) and
divinylbenzene/carboxen/polydimethylsiloxane (DVB/CAR/PDMS) fibers were tested
and compared for sensitivity beyond conditions that might affect the SPME
procedure, such as temperature, concentration of ions and sample volume. The
SPME fiber coated with DVB/CAR/PDMS presented the most efficient extraction
compounds from the headspace of the product, particularly when the volatiles
were extracted at 60℃ with 2 mL of the sample volume. The addition of salt did
not show any significant advantage for the qualification of the volatile
fraction. Eighty-three compounds were identified or tentatively identified by
GC-MS, being terpenes the most abundant group.
