Abstract: | A method is proposed for the determination of the adulteration of olive oil with hazelnut oil which is based on the study of the enantiomeric makeup of (E)-5-methylhept-2-en-4-one (filbertone). The possibilities of either using a sample preparation technique or performing direct injection of the samples (i.e., without any kind of sample pretreatment) are considered and both simultaneous distillation extraction followed by gas chromatographic analysis and direct injection in on-line coupled reverse-phase liquid chromatography to gas chromatography are used. In both cases, a chiral stationary phase is employed in the gas chromatography step and the determination of the enantiomeric composition of filbertone is recommended for an accurate evaluation and quick control for detecting the adulteration of olive oil with hazelnut oil.
