Characterization of the Volatile Compounds of the Hardwood Portion of Betula papyrifera Marshall From Quebec, Canada

open access: yesChemistry &Biodiversity, Volume 22, Issue 11, November 2025.
The volatile profile of Betula papyrifera hardwood has been characterized using both hydrodistillation and HS‐SPME coupled with GC‐MS/FID. Hydrodistillation yields a fatty acid‐rich essential oil, while HS‐SPME reveals a broader range of low‐molecular‐weight volatiles, including aromatics and terpenoids.
