  1. aStatistical analysis was performed by Independent Sample T-Test (compounds marked with T) and by Mannā€“Whitney U test (compounds marked with U). bZero values indicate emission rates below the detection limit. Emboldened values indicate statistical significance. VOC emission data was temperature standardized at 30Ā°C.
