    abstract = {In this study, thermal desorption (TD) two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled to
time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC×GC-TOFMS) is applied to investigate the chemical
composition of the organic fraction of atmospheric particulate matter (PM). The
challenges of combining a TD process with GC×GC-TOFMS will be herein addressed with
focus directed to the investigation of analytical artifacts. The objective of this study is to
demonstrate how the TD process might alter the sample matrix, thus generating
uncertain qualitative and quantitative results.
Laboratory-generated secondary organic aerosol (SOA) derived from β-pinene oxidation
and PM from an urban site (Munich, Germany) were herein investigated. A multistep
TD/pyrolysis approach was applied for monitoring thermal decomposition products and
oxidations products from TD by varying the maximum desorption/pyrolysis temperature
and the temperature gradient ramp. Generally, it has been shown how the thermally
labile fraction of the sample matrix will thermally decompose following a trend which is a
function of the desorption temperature, the temperature gradient ramp of the heating
process, as well as the aerosol chemical composition.},
