Fresh fruits and products made of them, especially fruit juice, provide the basic energetic substances (simple and complex sugars) and are a source of health beneficial vitamins, macro and microelements, antioxidants and compounds which are classified together with essential oils (for example terpenes), which positively affect human s health. The terpenes profile of cape gooseberry was determined by headspace solid--phase microextraction coupled with comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography with time-of-flight mass spectrometry (HS-SPME/GC×GC-TOFMS). The procedure was based on extraction and preconcentration of analytes to the stationary phase of the fiber from headspace phase and further thermal desorption from the fiber in the GCxGC injector port. The berries were found to contain around 110 terpenes identified by GC×GC—TOFMS.
