The sampling train consists of a cassette that will collect the PAHs in particulate
form, followed by the sampling tube that will adsorb the PAHs in vapour form.
This tube is connected directly to the pump by Tygon tubing. After sampling, the
samples must be stored in the freezer protected from light. The tubes and filters
must be shipped together. Ten hydrocarbons are determined simultaneously:
acenaphthene, fluorene, phenanthrene, anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene,
chrysene, benz(a)anthracene, benzo(e)pyrene et le benzo(a)pyrene.

Before and after sampling, tubes must be stored in a freezer.
Eleven aldehydes are determined simultaneously: acetaldehyde,
isobutyraldehyde, isovaleraldehyde, propionaldehyde, butyraldehyde, furfural,
heptanal, hexanal, valeraldehyde, acroleine and formaldehyde. This method must
not be used for the specific evaluation of formaldehyde; the methods to be used
in this case are 295-1 and 357-1.
