    Notes: ---This paper is concerned with the determination of volatile and semi-volatile organic components in air and gaseous (headspace) samples, focusing primarily on polar analytes. Samples were analyzed by preconcentration on different (ad)sorbents followed by thermal desorption and analysis by capillary gas chromatography. The performance of a cartridge filled with 100% polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) particles was compared to that of adsorbents like Tenax TA and Carbotrap 300. Though the PDMS phase is non-polar it showed adequate retention for both polar and non-polar components. The blank runs of the PDMS trap were significantly better than those of most adsorbents and did not deteriorate, as was the case with all the conventional adsorbents investigated. With respect to trapping efficiencies, the PDMS phase performed better for most of the analytes under investigation compared to the adsorbents. For a range of analytes including triethylamine, butanone, diacetyl, nicotine, and acetic acid the PDMS phase performed exceptionally well whereas all adsorbents showed unsatisfactory performance. The packed PDMS traps were employed for the determination of organic acids, PAH's and nitro-PAH's in air and for the analysis of the headspace of cacao and hop.

    Notes: ---Static and dynamic headspace sampling have been applied for the enrichment of volatiles emitted by living plants. For solid phase microextraction (SPME) the sorptive fibers polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and polyacrylate (PA) have been compared and, in accordance with the like-like principle, polar compounds exhibit more affinity for the PA fiber while apolar solutes favor the PDMS fiber. For dynamic sampling, tubes packed with PDMS particles show greater inertness than Tenax; some Tenax decomposition products, e.g. benzaldehyde and acetophenone, interfere with the analyses. With PDMS particles operated in the breakthrough mode, the obtained profiles are similar to those obtained by SPME on the PA fiber. Recoveries relative to a packed PDMS bed are 85% for Tenax, 2.4% for SPME-PDMS, and 6.2% for SPME-PA.

    Notes: A new method for the preconcentration of trace components from gaseous samples is described. The system is based on enrichment of the solutes on a packed bed of 100% polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) particles followed by thermal desorption and GC analysis. It was demonstrated that breakthrough volumes for packed PDMS traps can be calculated from theoretical equations. The PDMS material exhibits excellent thermal stability even after 200 consecutive runs. Additional advantages of packed sorbent beds over conventional adsorbent materials include high inertness, the absence of displacement effects and a reduced affinity for water. The practicality of the system was demonstrated by the analysis of air and natural gas using the system described here, components in the range of octane to benso[a] pyrene could be quantitatively trapped and thermally desorbed at mild temperatures. With the present set-up the detection limit is in the order of 0.1 ng/m3 (MSD detector).

    Notes: ---The use of sorptive extraction/thermal desorption (SE/TD) for the enrichment of amines from aqueous samples was investigated. The amines were derivatized in situ in the water sample by pentafluorobenzoyl chloride and subsequently enriched onto the SE cartridge. Two SE/TD cartridges were used, a commercially available polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) packed cartridge and a similar cartridge prepared with newly synthesized poly(butyl acrylate) (PBA). Blank profiles of PBA were not as good as those obtained from the PDMS phase. A complex chromatogram was obtained using mass spectrometric detection. Fortunately, the use of a nitrogen-phosphorus detector (NPD) resulted in clean blanks. The PBA phase showed superior performance for the enrichment of the polar amine derivatives from water samples compared to the PDMS material. Using a CGC-NPD set-up and only 1 mL samples, detection limits are in the sub-ppb range.
