Abstract:		"Real-time measurements of many low-abundance volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in breath and air samples are already feasible due to progress in analytical technologies, such as proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS). Nevertheless, the information content of real-time measurements is not fully exploited, due to the lack of suitable data handling methods. This study develops a data scientific procedure to enhance data analysis and interpretation of longitudinal, multivariate data sets from real-time, in vivo, aroma-release studies. The developed procedure includes an automated data preprocessing and a multivariate assessment of the test panel performance. A large multifactorial PTR-MS data set is investigated that includes four experimental protocols, two tested food products, four aroma compounds, and eight panelists. Real-time measurements are converted into standardized breath profiles by preprocessing, and 10 kinetic parameters are derived. Next to this, panel performance is evaluated per experimental protocol and food product. Comprehensive information about panel performance, individual panelists, studied products, aroma compounds, and kinetic parameters is extracted, demonstrating the great value of the developed approach"
