Abstract

In this review, we summarize the methods of sample introduction into a gas chromatograph. For volatile organic compounds, headspace measurements and purge-trap methods have been used traditionally. Recently, the trapped headspace method has been used in water quality testing. In addition, various solid-state adsorption methods have been developed, including a method in which the adsorbent is placed inside a needle, while new adsorbents and their applications have also been introduced.
