Objective:
To Analyze the volatile chemical components of Ficus carica fruits.
Methods:
The volatile components of Ficus carica fruits were extracted by the three extraction methods such as SPME, SD and SE, and then analyzed by GC-MS.
Results:
A total of 91 peaks were identified by GC-MS. 61 compounds came from the extraction methods of SPME, 7 compounds from SD, and 30 compounds from SE.
Conclusion:
The volatile components extracted by the three methods are not quite similar. Among of them, the volatile components extracted by SPME method are the most and have the highest resolution.
