“…The role and importance in atmospheric chemistry of organic compounds produced by human activity was recognized about 50 years ago by Haagen-Smit in his pioneering studies of Los Angeles' smog (Derwent, 1995), while scientific investigations on biogenic VOCs emissions were initiated in the Soviet Union in 1928 (Isidorov, Zenkevich, & Ioffe, 1993). Since that time the interest in the analysis of VOCs in air has been increased with growing concern for indoor and ambient air in virtually every urban city along with the concern of people for quality life in safe and clean environment.…”

“…Non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHCs) are an important group of VOCs in urban areas for two main reasons: their reaction with the hydroxyl radical (OH), which plays a critical role in atmospheric photochemical reactions (Derwent 1995;Finlayson-Pitts and Pitts 1999), and the potential health effects associated with prolonged exposure to such compounds as benzene (Bond et al 1986;Ye et al 1997) and 1,3 butadiene (Bond 1995;Melnick and Kohn 1995). In urban areas, motor vehicles represent one of the main sources of hydrocarbon emissions (Broderick and Marnane 2002).…”

“…Muitos COVs são substâncias tóxicas ou cancerígenas para a saúde humana, porém a situação se tornou mais expressiva nos últimos anos por conta da relação entre estes compostos e uma série de problemas ambientais de preocupação recente, dentre estes: formação de ozônio troposférico, destruição do ozônio estratosférico, contribuição com o efeito estufa global, acumulação e persistência no ambiente (DERWENT, 1995).…”
