a

Letters within a row indicate significant difference using the Bonferroni family error rate α = 0.05; if no letters are present, then no significant differences were observed for that compound.

b

RT = retention time in minutes.

c

Qion = quantifier ion by GC-MS.

d

Measured using direct injection method.
