Abstract

In this study three types of passive sampling devices (two samplers based on a silicone polymer sheet and semipermeable membrane devices) were calibrated for the measurement of time-weighted average (TWA) concentrations of hydrophobic micropollutants, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and organochlorine pesticides, in water.
