To investigate the regularities and differences in oxidation products of phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and examine the influence of variations in fatty acid compositions and head groups on the kinds and contents of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) generated. A total of 42 VOCs were identified from PE (16:0-18:2), PC (16:0-18:2), and PC (16:0-18:1), with aldehydes and ketones being the main VOCs in three phospholipids (PLs). The content of most VOCs produced by PE (16:0-18:2), PC (16:0-18:2), and PC (16:0-18:1) increases with the increase of oxidation temperature and time. Reached peak at 175 °C for 60 min. The total VOCs contents generated by PE (16:0-18:2) and PC (16:0-18:2) were higher than those produced by PC (16:0-18:1), with PC (16:0-18:2) showing the highest total VOCs contents. PLs exhibited three mass loss processes with increasing temperature, namely stability, reduction, and stabilization. PC (16:0-18:2) experienced the highest mass loss, followed by PE (16:0-18:2), while PC (16:0-18:1) showed the least mass loss. These findings showed that polyunsaturated fatty acids were more susceptible to oxidation and degradation during oxidation, and the presence of choline groups in the form of PE may enhance the oxidative stability of fatty acyl groups compared to PC.

The aim of this study was to investigate the differences of quality indexes, bacterial community and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) of industrial-scale tiger skin chicken feet (TSCF) under air packaging (AP) and vacuum packaging (VP). The results showed that the pH, total volatile basic nitrogen, total number of bacterial colony, and sensory scores in VP group changed less than those in AP group during the storage period. Different packaging conditions also had significant effects on bacterial community at the genus levels.

Formaldehyde (HCHO), a major carbonyl compound in urban air, poses health risks due to its carcinogenic properties. However, the role of FT-PBL exchange in HCHO and the importance of vertical exchange on diurnal variations in HCHO remain unclear. This study investigated the diurnal variability of HCHO in Seoul's planetary boundary layer (PBL) during cold.

Background: Advances in imaging technology have enhanced the detection of pulmonary nodules. However, determining malignancy often requires invasive procedures or repeated radiation exposure, underscoring the need for safer, noninvasive diagnostic alternatives. Analyzing exhaled volatile organic compounds (VOCs) shows promise, yet its effectiveness in assessing the malignancy of pulmonary nodules remains underexplored.

Higher alkanes are a major class of intermediate volatile organic compounds (IVOCs) emitted by vehicles, which have been considered as important precursors of secondary organic aerosol (SOA) in urban area. Dynamometer experiments were conducted to characterize emissions from gasoline and diesel vehicles in China. Three types of higher alkanes, namely acyclic, cyclic, and bicyclic alkanes, were explicitly quantified through the novel proton transfer reaction time-of-flight mass spectrometer with NO ionization (NO PTR-ToF-MS) with time response of 1 second.

This study investigates the chemical complexity and toxicity of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from national petrochemical industrial parks and their effects on air quality in an industrial area of Nanjing, China. Field measurements were conducted from 1 December 2022, to 17 April 2023, focusing on VOC concentrations and speciations, diurnal variations, ozone formation potential (OFP), source identification, and associated health risks. The results revealed an average total VOC (TVOC) concentration of 15.
