are limited and the released amount of total volatile organic
compounds (TVOCs) was defined as lower than 0.5 mg/m3.
InO¨ ko-TEX standard 200 [5], the organic compounds were
divided into two categories, volatile compounds and
odorous compounds, and their detections were specified to
be carried out in a defined size chamber. However, there are
no corresponding standards or definite methods to use for
VOC determination for the implement of the regulation.
The analysis of VOCs and semi-VOCs using solid phase
micro extraction (SPME) coupled with headspace has
received attention from many researchers [6,7]. Isidorov
et al. [8] reported that over 60 identified organic substances
of different classes can be found when SPME and gas
chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC/MS) were used to
analyze the composition of volatile emission of Scots pine
litter. An American standard [9] also employed SPME to
detect VOCs and semi-VOCs inwater. The work of Chen and
