| Abstract: | "In this study, in-door air semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) including 2-ethyl-1-hexanol, 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol monoisobutyrate (texanol), and 2,2,4-trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol diisobutyrate (TXIB), which are scheduled for adding as regulated compounds concerning indoor air reference values in Japan, were quantitatively extracted using a solid-phase extraction-type collection device, followed by sensitively determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. The developed method has shown a good extraction recovery up to an air sampling volume of 900 L. The extracted analytes were quantitatively and rapidly eluted by 7 mL of acetone. The limit of quantification of the analytes were 0.7, 2.1 and 0.2 ng L(-1) in air sample at a sampling volume of 300 mL without any concentration of a desorption solvent. The developed method was applied to simultaneous determinations of the investigated target analytes and phthalate esters in real indoor air samples" |
