This paper introduced a direct assay which can overcome the difficulties of collection low concentration samples. In order to pre concentrate the trace low MW compounds, a small trapping column filled with absorbent must be used before thermal desorption of the collected samples onto chromatographic column(packed with Porapak Q) for separation. It has been proved that the characteristic of absorbent mainly influence the recoveries and the linear range of this method is from 0 05 ng to 5200 ng for pentane, methanol, ethanol and acetone.展开更多

The method simplified the sample pretreatment, saved time and increased the efficiency. With the on-line trap column, PAHs were separated availably even underground injecting 1.0 ml sample with relatively high column efficiency. The recoveries of the seven PAHs were from 85% to 120% for spiked atmospheric particulate sample. The limit of detection was 15.3-39.6 ng/L （S/N=3.3）. There were good linear correlations between the peak areas and concentrations of the seven kinds of PAHs in the range of 1-50 ng/ml with the correlation coefficients over 0.9970. Furthermore, it also indicated that the method is available to determine PAHs in atmospheric particulates well.展开更多
