An aquatic passive sampling device is disclosed comprising a
diffusion-limiting membrane and a receiving phase itself comprising an
immobilised solid phase material supported by a solid support. The solid
support and membrane features enable the device to be adapted for use
forcontinuously monitoring a variety of micropollutants, including polar
organic, non-polar organic and inorganic analytes. Furthermore, the
analytes may be collected by short column extraction rather than batch
extraction.
