Abstract
Needle Trap Device (NTD) as a novel, versatile, and eco-friendly technique has played an important role in analytical and environmental chemistry. The distinctive role of this interdisciplinary technique can be defended through the sampling and analysis of biological samples and industrial pollutants in gaseous and liquid environments. In recent years, significant efforts have been made to enhance the performance of the needle trap device resulting in the development of novel extraction routes by various packing materials with improved selectivity and enhanced adsorption characteristics. These achievements can lead to the facilitated pre-concentration of desired analytes. This review tries to have a comparative and comprehensive survey of the three important areas of NTD technique: I) Fabrication and preparation procedures of NTDs; II) Sampling techniques of pollutants using NTDs; and III) Employed materials as adsorbents in NTDs. In the packing-material section, the commercial and synthetic adsorbents such as carbon materials, metal-organic frameworks, aerogel, and polymers are considered. Furthermore, the limitations and potential areas for future development of the NTD technique are presented.

Abstract
In this study, a fiber-packed needle trap device (NTD) was developed by packing heat-resistant fibers with a polyethylene glycol sol-gel coating into a 21-gauge, stainless steel needle. The polyethylene glycol sol-gel coating has numerous advantages, including uniform roughness and a large specific surface area. The prepared NTD was used for headspace extraction of five polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in water samples, determined by gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector (GC-FID). The main experimental parameters, including the extraction and desorption conditions, ionic strength, and fiber bundles, were investigated to improve the extraction efficiency. After optimization, satisfactory linearity (r > 0.99) in the concentration range of 0.02–500 μg/L was obtained, and the enrichment factor of NTD for the five PCBs was between 1150 and 9537 times. The limit of detection (S/N = 3) of five PCBs were measured in ranges of 0.0021–0.01 μg/L. Furthermore, the fiber-packed NTD has excellent durability, and can be reused for 60 cycles. After being stored at room temperature for three days, the storage ability of the NTD had a loss of PCBs less than 10%, and the relative standard deviation (RSD) was less than 10%. When analyzing the PCBs in real water samples, good accuracies (spiked recoveries were in the range of 92.19–98.56%) and precision (the RSD was lower than 12.8%) was obtained.

Abstract
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are a large group of chemicals mostly found in indoor environments such as homes and workplaces. Long term exposure to certain VOCs can cause symptoms in some individuals and therefore, monitoring and controlling air quality can help better manage chronic respiratory diseases. In this study, we aimed to develop an easy-to-use, economical, in house needle trap-based methodology to detect certain VOCs to be used for public and occupational health. For this purpose, a multi-bed (packed with PDMS/Carbopack-X/Carboxen-1000) needle trap device (NTD) was utilized for sampling, enrichment, and injection of the VOCs into the gas chromatography. The performance of the developed method was investigated for the analysis of the group known as BTEX (benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylene). Operational and instrumental parameters such as sampling flow rate and relative humidity, desorption time and temperature were optimized, and the analytical figures of merit of the proposed method have indicated that very low levels of BTEX in air samples can be easily determined by this new method. Overall results have shown that multi-bed NTD offers a high sensitive procedure for sampling and analysis of BTEX in concentration range of 0.002-0.298 mg/m3 in indoor air.

Abstract
Semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs), such as phthalates, organophosphates, and polybrominated diphenyl ethers, are emerging as an important class of pollutants that are of serious health concerns. Determining concentrations of these pollutants is of great importance for environmental and exposure studies. In this work, a needle trap device (NTD) method was developed to measure the concentration of SVOCs in air samples. Sorbents were packed in the NTD to capture SVOCs with the aid of a sampling pump. NTD operational parameters, such as desorption temperature, desorption time, and sampling flow rate, were optimized for the target SVOCs. The limit of detection for air sampling by the NTD method ranged between 5 pg and 1 ng, depending on the SVOC compound. The variations in terms of NTD repeatability and reproducibility were lower than 14% for all cases. In addition, the influence of other experimental parameters, such as sampling temperature and humidity, breakthrough volume, NTD storage time, as well as carryover effect were examined. Finally, NTDs were used to determine emissions of gas-phase SVOCs from various consumer products in an emission cell and to collect total airborne SVOC samples (gas and particle phases) in an office. The results of NTD method were in an agreement with data obtained by conventional active sampling methods using Tenax® sorbent tubes and polyurethane foam samplers, but with improvements of relative standard deviation, sensitivity, and sampling time. The results demonstrated that the NTD method is a simple, sensitive, effective, reusable, and inexpensive technique for sampling and analyzing SVOCs in the concentration range from 2 ng m-3 to 100 μg m-3 in air.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A needle trap device (NTD) was packed with Carbotrap/silica composite sorbent and applied for field sampling of halogenated volatile organic compounds (HVOCs) followed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) separation and determination. METHODS Carbotrap B, as a highly pure surface sorbent, was prepared using sol-gel method to improve its surface properties for adsorption/desorption of the target analytes. The effects of important experimental variables on the sampling and determination of trichloroethylene (thrCE) and tetrachloroethylene (tetCE) using the proposed NTD-GC/MS strategy were evaluated and optimized. RESULTS The results showed that sampling temperature and relative humidity interfered with sampling efficiency of the developed method and peak area responses of the analytes decreased with increasing temperature and relative humidity. The peak areas of the analytes increased with raising desorption temperature from 180 to 250 °C, and increasing desorption time from 1 to 3 min. The carryover experiments showed that the carryover effect disappeared after 3 min of desorption time. The Limits of Detection (LODs) and Limits of Quantitation (LOQs) of the analytes were in the range 0.01-0.03 and 0.05-0.09, respectively. CONCLUSIONS The results indicated that the developed NTD-GC/MS procedure can be used as a technology with high sensitivity for the field sampling and determination of HVOCs.

Abstract
To characterize the chemical differences of volatile components between crude and processed Baizhu Shaoyao San (BSS), a classical Chinese herbal formula that is widely applied in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases, we developed a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-based needle trap device combined with multivariate data analysis to globally profile volatile components and rapidly identify differentiating chemical markers. Using a triple-bed needle packed with Carbopack X, DVB and Carboxen 1000 sorbents, we identified 121 and 123 compounds, respectively, in crude and processed BSS. According to the results of principal component analysis and orthogonal partial least-squares discriminant analysis, crude and processed BSS were successfully distinguished into two groups with good fitting and predicting parameters. Furthermore, 21 compounds were identified and adopted as potential markers that could be employed to quickly differentiate these two types of samples using S-PLOT and variable importance in projection analyses. The established method can be applied to explain the chemical transformation of Chinese medicine processing in BSS and further control the quality and understand the processing mechanism of Chinese herbal formulae. Besides, the triple-bed needle selected and optimized in this study can provide a valuable reference for other plant researches with similar components. Furthermore, the systematic research on compound identification and marker discrimination of the complex components in crude and processed BSS could work as an example for other similar studies, such as composition changes in one plant during different growth periods, botanical characters of different medicinal parts in same kind of medicinal herbs and quality identification of one species of medicinal herb from different regions.

Abstract
In this research, a needle trap device (NTD) packed with nanoporous silica aerogel as a sorbent was used as a new technique for sampling and analysis of formaldehyde and acrolein compounds in aqueous and urine samples. The obtained results were compared with those of the commercial sorbent Carboxen1000. Active sampling was used and a 21-G needle was applied for extraction of gas in the sample headspace. The optimization of experimental parameters like salt addition, temperature and desorption time was done and the performance of the NTD for the extraction of the compounds was evaluated. The optimum temperature and time of desorption were 280 °C and 2 min, respectively. The ranges of limit of detection, limit of quantification and relative standard deviation (RSD) were 0.01-0.03 μg L-1, 0.03-0.1 μg L-1 and 2.8-7.3%, respectively. It was found that the NTD containing nanoporous silica aerogel had a better performance. Thus, this technique can be applied as an effective and reliable method for sampling and analysis of aldehyde compounds from different biological matrices like urine, exhalation and so on.

Abstract
A green, environmental friendly and sensitive method for determination of volatile organohalogen compounds was described in this paper. The method is based on a homemade sol-gel single-walled carbon nanotube/silica composite coated solid-phase microextraction to develop for sampling and analysis of Carbon tetrachloride, Benzotrichloride, Chloromethyl methyl ether and Trichloroethylene in air. Application of this method was investigated under different laboratory conditions. Predetermined concentrations of each analytes were prepared in a home-made standard chamber and the influences of experimental parameters such as temperature, humidity, extraction time, storage time, desorption temperature, desorption time and the sorbent performance were investigated. Under optimal conditions, the use of single-walled carbon nanotube/silica composite fiber showed good performance, high sensitive and fast sampling of volatile organohalogen compounds from air. For linearity test the regression correlation coefficient was more than 98% for analyte of interest and linear dynamic range for the proposed fiber and the applied Gas Chromatography-Flame Ionization Detector technique was from 1 to 100 ngmL(-1). Method detection limits ranged between 0.09 to 0.2 ngmL(-1) and method quantification limits were between 0.25 and 0.7 ngmL(-1). Single-walled carbon nanotube/silica composite fiber was highly reproducible, relative standard deviations were between 4.3 to 11.7 percent.

Abstract
A needle-trap device, with immobilized sorbent inside the syringe, coupled with GC-MS was applied for air sampling and determination of chlorinated volatile organic compounds such as dichloromethane, trichloromethane, and tetrachloromethane. The application of a needle trap packed with combination of three sorbents including Tenax TA, Carbopack X, and Carboxen 1000 resulted in detection limits of few pg for chlorinated volatile compounds and recoveries of 99.2-102.8%. The extraction and desorption parameters were optimized within the study. As a result, the precision determined as RSD was equal to 5.05 and 3.03 and 6.52% for dichloromethane, trichloromethane, and tetrachloromethane, respectively. The storage time for chlorinated compounds up to 48 h and reusability of the needle-trap device were verified. The obtained results have proved the ability of needle traps to compete with other solventless sampling and sample preparation extraction techniques.
