Abstract
Methyl isothiocyanate (MITC) is used as soil fumigant for several vege table diseases and as antifermentative agent in wine. A new headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) method for analysis of MITC in w ine is here described. This method is fast, inexpensive and does not r equire any solvent. Moreover, it shows a low minimum detectable Limit and a wide linearity range. The quantification of MITC is performed by the standard additions method and does not require the use of interna l standard, as in other methods.
