Description

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) contribute substantially to the formation of ozone and other photochemical oxidants. Some VOCs have been identified as toxic or mutagenic pollutants. Then, a simple analysis of VOCs at low levels in the atmosphere was conducted using passive samplers, and the annual changes and origins of VOCs in Kyoto were analyzed. Furthermore, a portable, time efficient and sensitive instrument for the continuous analysis of VOCs was developed in order to elucidate the human health risk and environmental load, and was applied to indoors and environmental monitoring.
