Abstract Seven laboratories collaboratively studied 3 methods for sampling water-based insecticides in pressurized cans. Method 1 was a direct sampling method where the sample was collected continuously from an aerosol outlet into the solvent, using a U-shaped sampling assembly. Method 2 was an indirect method, in which the sample was collected in the solvent from an open can after the propellent was discharged under frozen conditions. Method 3 was an extension of Method 1, where ≥3 samples were collected continuously from an aerosol outlet into the solvent through a U-shaped sampling assembly. The solvent, which contained the active ingredient, was concentrated and transferred to a suitable volumetric flask for gasliquid chromatographic (GLC) analysis. The means of the analytical results for Methods 1 and 3 did not show a significant difference at the 95% confidence level. However, a significant difference was found at the 95% confidence level for the mean value for Method 2 compared with the means for Methods 1 and 3. Methods 1 and 3 have been adopted as official first action for sampling pressurized cans containing aerosols.

The construct, “organizational commitment” has been a subject of interest for a long time for the people who study the organizational psychology. Employees’ organizational commitment is a complex matter and there are many factors which affect the organizational commitment of employees. Even though the organization has important role in it, demographic and individual characteristics of employees have also significant influence on organizational commitment. In this study a cross-sectional survey was conducted using a convenience sample of 336 security employees in a military organization to establish possible relationship between organisational commitment and important demographic variables (nationality, rank, gender, age, education, marital status, tenure). The data obtained by the survey were analysed using the SPSS 21.0 package program. In statistical analyses, T-test and variance (ANOVA) analyses were used. The results of the data showed that affective commitment of employees who had been working between 11-15 years was significantly differentiated from those of working years over 25 years. The results of this study also showed that officers had more normative commitment than civilians and the supervisors had less normative commitment than non-supervisors. The analysis also showed that males and younger employees differed significantly in normative commitment than their female counterparts and older employees. However, no statistically significant difference was found in education and marital status.
