  • Patent number: 11119011
    Abstract: A method for extracting and detecting volatile organic compounds includes steps as follows. At least one effervescent tablet is provided, wherein the effervescent tablet is produced by mixing an acidic compound and an alkaline compound homogeneously. An extraction and detection apparatus is provided, wherein the extraction and detection apparatus includes an extraction chamber, an injection tube and a detection instrument. An extraction step is performed, wherein a liquid matrix is put into the extraction chamber, and the effervescent tablet is added into the liquid matrix to generate bubbles, the volatile organic compounds are extracted from the liquid matrix by the bubbles, and the bubbles enter into the headspace of the extraction chamber. A detection step is performed, wherein the volatile organic compounds extracted during the extraction step are transferred to the detection instrument via the injection tube so as to detect the volatile organic compounds.
