title: [GC-MS fingerprint analyses of fatty acids in peach seed].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To investigate the GC fingerprint of fatty acids in peach seed,and provide evidences for quality assessment on peach seed.
  
  
  METHODS
  Capillary gas chromatography was applied in analysis of fatty acids in peach seed, and the distinctive information was confirmed by GC-MS with hierarchical cluster and species similarity analysis.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The GC fingerprint containing distinctive information was obtained after investigation of peach seeds from 34 varieties and origins.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  With Good reproducibility, fingerprints established for peach seeds provided an effective method for quality control.
