Abstract: The volatile composition of fermented chili pepper was analyzed by solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and compared with that of native chili pepper. A total of 45 and 43 volatile compounds were identified in fermented and native chili peppers, respectively. Fermented chili pepper exhibited an increase in ester content and a decrease in alcohol content when compared with native one.

Key words: fermented Capsicum annuum, volatile components, solid-phase microextraction, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)
