Fast isolation of hydrophobic organic environmental contaminants from exposed semipermeable membrane devices (SPMDs) prior to GC analysis

Occupational and indoor air exposure to persistent organic pollutants: A review of passive sampling techniques and needs

“…Improvements on the extraction steps can be made by using an ultra sonication extraction system or a microwave-assisted extraction, which can reduce both the time needed for accomplishment of the isolation step and use of extraction solvents. [86][87][88][89] Another possibility may be pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) which can shorten the extraction step for POPs but it has so far mainly been used for extraction of solid material (food, soil, sediments, organisms) and to our knowledge not on PAS. 90 However, ideally, for a fast and costeffective sampling, the sampling step could be directly integrated with the analytical step with elimination of solvent use.…”

Concentration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in water samples from different stages of treatment

“…These membranes mimicking the biological membranes, thus allow selective diffusion of dissolved low molecular weight organic compounds, and their condensation in triolein. The technique is important for estimating risks associated with exposure of living organisms to contaminants, because allows to easily determine the time-weighted average concentration of the analytes dissolved and absorbed biologically for long periods of time [13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20]. Many studies have shown that this technique is appropriate for sampling water from various areas like the marine environment [21,22], rivers [23][24][25][26][27] and lakes [15].…”
