Abstract
Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) combined with gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) has been applied to the analysis of various caffeinated beverages. Unlike the current methods, this technique is solvent free and requires no pH adjustments. The simplicity of the SPME-GC/MS method lends itself to a good undergraduate laboratory practice. This publication describes the analytical conditions and presents the data for determination of caffeine in coffee, tea, and coke. Quantitation by isotopic dilution is also illustrated.
