Development and validation of a dynamic vapor sorption-fast gas chromatography-flame ionization detection method for rapid analysis of volatile release from glassy matrices.
Historically, saturated salt solutions in desiccators have been used to investigate the effects of increasing relative humidity and temperature on the volatile retention efficiency of amorphous glasses. Obtaining data using desiccators is a static process that gives the researcher discrete data points with which to draw conclusions. Dynamic vapor sorption (DVS; SMS, London, U.K.) is a humidification system that creates specific relative humidity and temperature environments within a chamber that contains the material being investigated. This study had two specific aims: (1) to develop a DVS-fast GC-FID method that dynamically evaluates the effects of humidification and temperature increases on volatile release from amorphous carbohydrate glasses and (2) to evaluate the validity of the DVS-fast GC-FID method. Artificial cherry Durarome (Firmenich, Plainsboro, NJ) was used as the model system. The DVS-fast GC-FID method proved to be an innovative, accurate, and precise technique that can be used to conduct humidification/temperature-volatile release studies.
