TLDR
In this paper, the absorption and desorption processes of benzene, toluene, and p-xylene were described and compared with experimental results for solid-phase microextraction using poly(dimethylsiloxane)-coated fused silica optical fibers.
Abstract
Mathematical descriptions of the absorption and desorption processes were developed and compared with experimental results for solid-phase microextraction (SPME) using poly(dimethylsiloxane)-coated fused silica optical fibers. Extraction times for benzene, toluene, and p-xylene using a coating thickness of 55 {mu}m are under 10 min and can be shortened substantially using agitation. Detection limits and distribution coefficients for several organic compounds are presented. 20 refs., 13 figs., 1 tab.

Electrochemistry of conducting polypyrrole films

TL;DR: In this paper, the same authors showed that polypyrrole, poly-N-methylpyrron and poly-phenyl pyrrole polymers can be electrochemically driven between the oxidized (conducting) form and the neutral (insulating) form.

Enzyme entrapment in electrically conducting polymers. Immobilisation of glucose oxidase in polypyrrole and its application in amperometric glucose sensors

TL;DR: A technique is described for the entrapment of glucose oxidase in a polypyrrole matrix electrochemically deposited on a printed platinum electrode, with the enzyme activity incorporated into the polymer found to be proportional to the activity in the electropolymerisation medium.
