Abstract:Large yellow croaker（Larimichthys crocea）is the largest marine fish cultured in China and Ningde area of Fujian province is the largest farm of L.crocea in China.The aim of the present study was to comprehensively analysis the volatile components of farmed large yellow croaker.The volatiles were respectively extracted by solid-phase microextraction（SPME）and simultaneous distillation extraction（SDE），which were analyzed using gas chromatography mass spectrometry（GC-MS）and relative odor activity value（ROAV）.The results showed that 49 kinds of volatile components were detected，the volatile components extracted by SPME and SDE were significantly different.In comparison，the SPME extract were mainly consisting of aldehydes，alcohols，hydrocarbons and aromatic hydrocarbons；and ketones and esters were the main volatile compounds in the SDE extract.Nine key aroma components were identified by ROAV analysis，including octanal，nonanal，（E）-2-octenal，（E，E）-2，4-decadienal，1-octen-3-ol，（E，Z）-2，6-nonadienal，（E）-2-necenal and limonene.The two extraction methods combined GC-MS analysis could sufficiently detect the volatile compounds of farmed large yellow croaker in Ningde area of Fujian Province.
