Abstract:		"The mycelium of T. borchii (characterized by DNA analysis) grown in sterile liquid medium produced some VOCs. The VOCs were retained on carbographs by passing a flow of helium, isolated and characterized in a GC-MS equipment after a thermal desorption. The compounds present in the VOCs from the mycelium cultures, but not in the VOCs from the control cultures, contained 29 compounds. The main compounds were 1,3-ditertbutylbenzene (16.1 ng/l), 3-methylheptane (9.2 ng/l), butan-2-one (8.8 ng/l), ethynylbenzene (5.6 ng/l), and octan-3-one (4.9 ng/l)"
