In 1973, Grob introduced the closed-loop stripping analysis (CLSA) system for the analysis of trace organics in water [227-230]. In CLSA, volatiles from the water sample are stripped by a recirculating stream of air and trapped in a small active-carbon filter.

This observation led us to examine whether Arabidopsis flowers emit terpene volatiles. However, standard volatile collection and analysis techniques did not result in readily detectable levels of terpenes. We, therefore, adapted a closed loop stripping method developed initially by Donath and Boland for the detection of Arabidopsis volatiles. This method (Fig. 1.3A) is based on a continuous circulation of air in the headspace of whole plants or plant parts placed in a 1-3 liter glass bell...
