Abstract
Thermal desorption is a valuable method for the fractionation of plant volatile components, which can be carried out on-line with GC analysi s. The use of coupled GC-MS affords additional qualitative information , of special interest for plant species whose composition has not been previously studied. Some examples of the application of automatic the rmal desorption coupled to GC-MS to the identification and characteriz ation of volatile components of plants of different families are given .
