Abstract
In this work, a recently developed extraction technique for sample preparation aiming the analysis of volatile and semi-volatile compounds named gas-diffusion microextraction (GDME) is applied in the chromatographic analysis of aldehydes in beer. Aldehydes—namely acetaldehyde (AA), methylpropanal (MA) and furfural (FA)—were simultaneously extracted and derivatized with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH), then the derivatives were separated and analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography with spectrophotometric detection (HPLC–UV). The identity of the eluted compounds was confirmed by high-performance liquid chromatography–atmospheric pressure chemical ionization–mass-spectrometry detection in the negative ion mode (HPLC–APCI–MS). The developed methodology showed good repeatability (ca. 5%) and linearity as well as good limits of detection (AA–12.3, FA–1.5 and MA 5.4 μg L −1) and quantification (AA–41, FA–4.9 and MA 18 μg L −1); it also appears to be competitive in terms of speed and cost of analysis.
