LVSH Sample Platforms and Enclosures • Samples are placed in disposable vials, reducing potential for contamination of sample platforms. • Sample Platforms use quick connects, simplifying removal for oven bakeout.
Advantages of Large Volume Static Headspace (LVSH) • Cleaner. No aerosols or foaming to contaminate sample transfer lines • Larger Sample Loading • Low detection limits without sample heating. • Less chance of producing artifacts. • Sample remains in natural state. • Ideal for kinetic / aging studies • Outgassing rates • Effects of Atmosphere and Storage Temperature • Better recovery of reactive compounds • Strong carbon based adsorbents are avoided • Inert, Silonite tubing used throughout • No sample fractionation (SPME)

Large Volume Static Headspace (LVSH) is a new analytical tool available to food and beverage Chemists which enhances the detection of headspace components using GC and GCMS analysis. Maintaining the sample in a more natural state allows the analysis of “normally occurring” odor and flavor compounds. Inert flow paths and reduced temperature trapping increases the range of analytes that can be recovered, including oxygen, nitrogen, and sulfur containing compounds. Conclusion
