Geosmin is a volatile organic compound that is produced by certain types of bacteria, such as actinomycetes, and can be found in soil, water, and air. Geosmin has been identified as the cause of "earthy" or "musty" flavors in drinking water. Geosmin can be detected by olfactometry techniques and quantified using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The technique involves spiking a sample with an appropriate amount of geosmin to achieve the desired concentration for analysis. Geosmin can also be removed from samples using desorption methods. This process involves heating the sample at a high temperature to release geosmin from the surface adsorbed on the solid phase into the vapor phase where it can be collected on a trap. This method is used to analyze geosmin levels in environmental samples such as groundwater or surface water.
