Summary
The testing of open cap vials in headspace solid-phase microextraction combined with capillary gas chromatography is reported. The losses of volatile analytes from such vials were analyzed theoretically and investigated experimentally. The benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene isomers spiked in water were used as model compounds. Extraction yields and precision obtained under optimized experimental conditions as exposure time, desorption time and temperature were compared applying vials with open caps or sealed with teflon lined septa.
