The use of multidimensional chromatography in environmental analysis has been reviewed in the literature (1-6). Of the multidimensional systems described in previous chapters, GC-GC liquid chromatography LC-LC and LC-GC, whose applications to environmental analysis will be detailed in this chapter, are the ones most often used in environmental analysis. 

Other multidimensional systems, such as supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC-GC or LC-SFC), will not be described here because, although some applications to environmental analysis have been described (4, 7-9), they have not been very widely used in this field.

The development of sensitive and inexpensive immunoassays for low molecular weight pesticides has been an important trend in environmental and analytical sciences during the past two decades. 0.27-29 jq design an immunoassay for a pesticide, one can rely on the immunoassay literature for agrochemicals, " but many of the innovations in clinical immunoanalysis are also directly applicable to environmental analysis. - Conversely, the exquisite sensitivity required and difficult matrices present for many environmental immunoassay applications have forced the development of technologies that are also useful in clinical immunoassay applications. In the following discussion we will describe widely accepted procedures for the development of pesticide immunoassays.

Immunochemical methods have been reported for both APEs and their metabolites, especially APs. A discussion of the immunochemical methodologies reported to date, the effect of the immunizing haptens employed, and the features of these techniques were recently reviewed [169]. Unfortunately, the detectability achieved is usually far from what is necessary for direct application to environmental samples. Moreover, the selectivity for APs versus APEs is not always satisfactory. Thus, Goda et al. [ 148] developed a direct ELISA for NP with a LOD of 10 pg L 1 and a working range between 70 and 1,000 pg L, but APEs with one to ten ethoxylate units are also well recognized.

By the nature of its content, with contributions from experienced practitioners, the book aims to serve as a practical reference for researchers, post docs, PhD-students and postgraduates as well as risk assessors working on surfactants in environmental laboratories, environmental agencies, the surfactant industry, the water industry and sewage treatment facilities. Each chapter includes extensive references to the literature and also contains detailed investigations. The broad spectrum of the book and its application to environmental priority compounds makes it unique in many ways. 

Within Severn Trent a modified version of this procedure is utilised for the analysis of malodorous emissions. The most significant difference in this approach compared to those already discussed is the use of high resolution gas chromatography in combination with olfactory detection. This method also combines physico-chemical and olfactometric or sensory techniques but in an alternative manner. Utilisation of gas chromatography combined with odour detection is not a new concept and has been employed fairly commonly for the analysis of food aromas, essential oils and other fragrances. The technique is equally applicable to environmental problems and is used frequently in this laboratory for the analysis of atmospheric emissions and taste and odours in water. Three important benefits accrue from this approach in the context of odour emission analysis.

Applications to Environmental Samples — A number of publications arc available demonstrating that ICP will give accurate results for a variety of samples (C.A. NBS orchard leaves and bovine liver), but there are still a few reports that describe applications where the ICP has been used as the tool for the evaluation of an environmental problem. Some of the applications that are discussed will be accounts from personal communications, which because of propietary reasons may be only general descriptions of the application. 

Because of its exceptional selectivity, sensitivity and speed, IC is particularly suited to applications involving analysis of anions and cations in wastewater, natural waters, source effluents, workplace environments, ambient air and rain water. The analysis of organic as well as inorganic ions can be performed by 1C. Table I is a growing list of ions which have been successfully separated and detected. The principles of IC and selected applications to environmental pollutants are described in this paper. 

Because Ion Chromatography is a new technique, very little data has appeared in the literature describing its application to environmental analysis. The following discussion reviews what has been published and presents data on a number of new environmental applications.
