A headspace solid-phase microextraction method with subsequent GC-MS (HS-SPME/GC-MS) was established for the quantitative analysis of volatile lignin derived phenolic monomers in complex aqueous solutions. Extraction was done using a polyacrylate fiber. The optimization of HS-SPME - parameters was performed

1. Metabolites of 1-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-2-propanone (HMP-one), a smoke flavour compound, were isolated from rat urine using hydrolysis, ether extraction, t.l.c. and g.l.c. 2. Three metabolites were identified by mass spectrometry and independent synthesis, namely: 1-(3, 4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2-propanone (Met I), 1-(3, 4-dihydroxyphenyl)-2-propanol (Met
