Abstract In this paper volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from durum wheat cultivars and landraces were analyzed using PTR-TOF-MS. The aim was to characterize the VOC’s profile of wholemeal flour kernel find out if any VOCs specific varieties sample matrices. VOC data is accompanied by SDS-PAGE analyses storage proteins (gliadins glutenins). Statistical carried both on signals obtained MS protein profiles. difference between two or preparations same - matrices, in case vs can be very subtle; high resolution PTR-TOF-MS down levels as low pptv made it possible recognize these differences. effects grinding profiles SIMPER Tanglegram statistical methods. Our results show that describe samples data.
