| Summary: | Alcohol beverages have been widely consumed in several parts of the world. In this study, volatile organic compounds in alcoholic beverages including acetaldehyde, ethyl acetate, methanol, and higher ethanol were investigated and evaluated using a headspace gas chromatograph equipped with a mass spectrometer. This study evaluated the suitability of the chromatographic system, linearity, limit of detection, and limit of quantification, accuracy, and precision of the single and simultaneous determination of acetaldehyde, ethyl acetate, and methanol in thousand folds of ethanol. Results showed that the acetaldehyde concentration in local beer samples and local manual product liqueur samples ranged from 4.65 to 13.22 mg/L and from 5.55 to 75.96 mg/L, respectively, but in local industrial product liqueur samples, acetaldehyde was not detected. Methanol was only detected in a few local beer samples and locally manually produced liqueur samples within low concentrations. Ethyl acetate was only detected in all local beer samples, but it was not present in local industrial product liqueur samples. |
