Abstract: | Ambient air particulates were collected using high volume samplers at seven locations throughout Singapore. The particulates were analyzed for eleven polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with fluorescence detection. Several sample preparation techniques were used to determine which method would yield the most PAHs from the bulk sample matrix. PAH profiles (standardised against the concentration of benzo(a)pyrene) were obtained to characterise the different sampling sites chosen. |
