The determination of olive oil authenticity is currently carried out using techniques that provide data regarding its quality, sensory attributes, and composition. Such analytical techniques include: Volatile compound analysis using SPME-GC/MS, stable carbon isotope ratio analysis (SCIRA), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), specific natural isotopic fractionation nuclear magnetic resonance (SNIF/NMR), proton transfer mass spectrometry (PTR/MS), isotope ratio mass spectroscopy (IRMS), gas chromatography (GC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), high performance liquid chromatography/ mass spectroscopy (HPLC/MS), inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy (ICP) as well as DNA techniques.
