I am trying to detect the air diffusable metabolytes generated during fruit growing so they act as odorant atracters for fruit flies.<br>Besides ethylene oxide, what other gas compounds could be found in the inmediate atmosphere to the fruit?&nbsp;&nbsp;Lipids maybe? Perhaps aldehydes? Other?<br>Looking forward for your answers.
