  • Title: Field evaluation of a passive sampler of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in an urban atmosphere (Bologna, Italy).
    Author: Stracquadanio M, Bergamini D, Massaroli E, Trombini C.
    Journal: J Environ Monit; 2005 Sep; 7(9):910-5. PubMed ID: 16121272.
    Abstract:
    A simple device consisting of a Petri dish containing cellulose paper soaked with paraffin oil (hereinafter defined "artificial leaf", AL) was deployed in a typical urban site and partitioning of a set of PAHs between the atmosphere and AL was investigated. Gas-phase PAHs rapidly equilibrate with AL, thus rendering it a promising cost-effective tool for spatial and temporal trends studies of air quality.
