Determination of the dynamic nature of vapor/odor release has application in a wide variety of systems. This study applies automated solid-phase microextraction (SPME) utilizing an externally sampled internal standard (ESIS) to determine the vapor–time profile of odor delivery devices for three classes of explosive compounds. The profiles of delivery systems for target odorants 2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT), 2-ethyl-1-hexanol (2-EH), and triacetone triperoxide (TATP) as canine training aids were compared over a period of 70 h. Strategies for evaluating the vapor–time profile of components with widely differing volatility are considered. An approach to quantifying the vapor concentration is described. The differences in the vapor–time profiles are examined and suggestions for selecting the best representative odor delivery technique are outlined.
► A new approach (SPME-ESIS) was used to provide vapor–time profiles.
► Sampling times optimized for the internal standard and unknown analytical sample.
► An approach to vapor quantitation using SPME-ESIS is presented.
► The vapor–time profiles of a number of training aid materials are determined.
► ‘Infusion’ of volatile components into polydimethylsiloxane disks stabilizes TATP.
