Abstract:

Objective: To analyze the volatile components of vanilla beans from different habitats. Methods: The contents
of volatile components from vanilla beans were determined by peak area normalization method. The separated volatile
components were identified by GC-MS. Results: Totally 104 volatile components were identified preliminarily. There were
differences in volatile components of vanilla beans from different habitats. Conclusion: The analytical method presented in
this study is reliable and stable and can be applied for the analysis of volatile components of vanilla beans.

Key words: vanilla bean, volatile components, headspace solid phase micro extraction, cluster analysis, principal component analysis
