Abstract The separation and analysis of volatile N-nitrosamines in meat products are difficult tasks because they are present at trace levels. In this paper, advances in techniques for the detection of volatile N-nitrosamines in meat products are summarized. Five pretreatment techniques including steam distillation, solid-phase extraction, solid-phase micro-extraction, microwave-assisted extraction coupled with dispersive liquid-liquid micro-extraction and dispersive solid-phase extraction are outlined. The application of gas chromatography and liquid chromatography in qualitative and quantitative analysis of volatile N-nitrosamines is also reviewed. Finally, the difficulties in the development of new techniques for the detection of volatile nitrosamines in meat products and future trends are discussed.
