Editorial summary

The paper evaluates a passive flux sampler for locating indoor formaldehyde sources and estimating their surface emission rates. Laboratory validation and in-building measurements support the sampler's screening use, while FLEC is discussed as an established comparison approach rather than the instrument used by the authors.

Editorial, non-verbatim summary based on the publisher abstract and indexed record; no commercially reusable licence for the original abstract was verified.

FLEC use

FLEC mention, comparison or reference

The developed and tested device is a passive flux sampler. FLEC is part of the existing-method context, and accessible evidence does not support the site's previous claim of direct FLEC-SPME use.
