In the course of our continuing work on transformation of monoterpenes by microorganisms, the biotransformation of (+)- and (-)-carvone was carried out. The metabolites formed during microbial transformations were screened using a simple, rapid and efficient technique: Headspace-solid phase microextraction (SPME)/GC-MS. The results as well as the application of this technique are described.
