The present article briefly reviews the use of GC-O in the flavour investigation of dairy products (milk and cheese), coffee, meat and fruits. Particular attention has been devoted to extraction techniques, GC-O hardware commonly utilised and olfactometric assessment methods, which can be applied to food analysis. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V.
