| Abstract | Much effort has been made to characterise chemical species responsible for the formation of secondary organic aerosol. After one of the first chemical characterisation studies used GC/MS with a prior derivatisation to show cis-pinonic acid and cis-norpinonic acid as constituents of -pinene originating SOA (Wilson et al., 1972), this technique became a popular tool to elucidate SOA compounds. Since then it has been shown that SOA compounds are highly polar in nature, and techniques that are more suitable for the analysis of polar organic compounds such as LC/MS have largely replaced the GC/MS based techniques, and have provided more information about a wide palette of compound classes that are present in SOA. Nevertheless, only a small fraction of both ambient and laboratory generated SOA is characterised at a molecular level and little is known about the identity of a large fraction of SOA constituents. |
