title: A novel approach for simultaneous determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons by Shpol'skii non-linear variable-angle synchronous fluorescence spectrometry.
abstract: A new method of combining low-temperature Shpol'skii effect with non-linear variable-angle synchronous fluorescence spectrometry (L-NLVASFS) has been proposed to increase spectral resolution. This coupled method was applied successfully to the simultaneous identification and quantification of some polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in mixtures, which cannot be determined by non-linear variable-angle synchronous fluorescence spectrometry at room-temperature (R-NLVASFS). The usefulness of this method is demonstrated by the analyses of synthetic mixtures and several real samples of airborne particulates.
