“…(e.g. Prest et al, 1995;Palowitz, 1996;Hofelt and Shea, 1996;Marrucci et al, 2013 among others). The other type of passive sampler is a solid phase device such as polyethylene that acts as a sorbent for lipophilic contaminants such as PCBs and PAH and can be moored at desired places (e.g.…”

“…A recent survey of air and water sampling results using SPMDs was undertaken by Prest et al 19 Studies related to the use of SPMDs to monitor PAHs and organic pollutants have been undertaken by researchers in academe, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the United States Geological Survey (USGS). 20 -22 SPMDs are nonpolar membranes lined with a high-molecular-weight lipid (triolein) which act in a phenomenologically similar way to the biomembranes and fatty tissues of aquatic organisms.…”

The incorporation of Raman Spectroscopy into the undergraduate chemistry curriculum is discussed based on a survey of large, medium, and small undergraduate chemistry programs. Factors that determine the optimal instrument choice for Raman instruction in the undergraduate laboratory are considered. A student experiment that compares and contrasts the use of Raman spectroscopy with infrared spectroscopy identifies many of the common benefits associated with Raman spectroscopy such as spectral simplicity, limited sample preparation, and use with aqueous solutions. Additional examples of undergraduate laboratory experiments include Raman spectrographic analysis of foodstuff, gem and mineral analysis, saturation of oils, and future applications in forensic science and environmental analysis.

The principles of passive dosimetry, which has been known for over 100 years, are finding an ever increasing use in analytical practice and are being used as a convenient technique for isolation and enrichment of analytes from various environmental media. Due to its simplicity, a variety of designs, as well as the possibility of using a number of different final determination techniques, passive dosimetry has been applied in the analysis of organic and inorganic air pollutants, both in the outdoor and the indoor and workplace atmospheres, as well as in the monitoring of water and soil pollution. This paper is an attempt to review the designs of existing passive samplers, the media used to trap analytes and the techniques used for the release of the trapped analytes and their final determination.
