A combined gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) with headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) method has been employed for the analysis of the flavor volatiles of some Iranian rice cultivars (Domsiah, Deylamani, Hashemi, Shirodi and Tarom). The samples were grown in different cities of Mazandaran province. The sampling procedure and chromatographic conditions were same for all sa...

Nanoporous carbons (CMK-3) were prepared and have been used as a fiber coating for headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME). The prepared materials were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and N2 adsorption/desorption isotherms. The efficiency of the fiber was evaluated using a gas chromatography (GC) system for the extraction of benzene (B) and c...

Bioconversion of coal to methane has gained increased attention in recent decades because of its economic and environmental advantages. However, the mechanism of this process is difficult to study in depth, partly because of difficulties associated with the analysis of intermediates generated in coal bioconversion. In this investigation, we report on an effective method to analyze volatile inte...


 Monolithic solid phase microextraction silica sorbent coated with silver nanopar ticles (Ag NPs) was successfully synthesized in a small quartz capillary. The tested headspace mode using various aromatic compounds followed by gas chromatography analysis. Due to the π-π electronic interaction between analytes systems and particles immobilized on surface, were extracted from sample determi...

The electrochemical coating technique was used for the preparation of a polypyrrole coating on a stainless-steel wire, and applied as a fibre for solid phase microextraction (SPME). The polypyrrole fibre was employed for analyzing four volatile aliphatic amines (ethylamine, propylamine, butylamine and pentylamine) in water by headspace SPME using gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (G...

The determination of VOCs is widely used in many fields of chemistry. Two common sample preparation techniques for this analysis are static and dynamic headspace. Static headspace is a relatively simple sampling method that is dependent upon the formation of equilibrium conditions in a closed system. Dynamic headspace continually sweeps the headspace of the sample concentrating the analytes ont...
