Headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) coupled with gas chromatography (GC) and multivariate data analysis were applied to classify different vinegar types (white and red, balsamic, sherry and cider vinegars) on the basis of their volatile composition. The collected chromatographic signals were

In order to develop a suitable radiotracer for the measurement of glial metabolism, we synthesized four different types of ester derivatives of [14C]acetate, namely, [14C]phenyl acetate, [14C]para-nitrophenyl acetate, [14C]2,4-dinitrophenyl acetate and [14C]benzyl acetate ([14C]BA), and evaluated their potencies in rats.
