“…In addition, this technique does not require any sample pre-treatment such as drying or pre-concentration and is thus well suited for oxygenated VOCs, which cannot be quantified from canister samples used in a traditional chemical analysis method. PTR-MS has been widely used in atmospheric, food, environmental science, forensic investigation and medical research (Blake et al, 2009;Boscaini et al, 2004;Filella and Penuelas, 2006;de Gouw and Warneke, 2007;Granitto et al, 2007;Hewitt et al, 2003;Jobson et al, 2005;Kato et al, 2004;Lindinger et al, 1998Lindinger et al, , 2001Lindinger et al, , 2008Lirk et al, 2004;Mayr et al, 2003;Steeghs et al, 2004;Van Ruth et al, 2007;Wang and Stout, 2007;Warneke et al, 2003;Wehinger et al, 2007;Whyte et al, 2007). On the other hand, there have been rare studies in the field of indoor air quality utilizing this technique with a few exceptions (Bunge et al, 2008;Fang et al, 2008;Weschler et al, 2007;Wisthaler et al, 2007).…”
