Abstract

The instrumental performances of a Thermo Desorption-Cooled Injection System coupled with a gas chromatography–mass spectrometer (GC–MS) were improved by a Plackett-Burman experimental design for the direct thermal extraction of volatile compounds from extra-virgin olive oils. The obtained experimental conditions were applied to the analysis of samples from West Liguria (cv. Taggiasca ≥90%) and Spain (cv. Arbequina), which shared such similar sensorial features that Taste Panel did not distinguish them. Principal component analysis (PCA) was then applied to the experimental data. Three linear combinations of the amounts of the lipoxygenase oxidation products proved to be decisive and sufficient in the differentiation of the two groups of samples.
