      <text>Small volume of sample in a headspace vessel maintained at a temperature sufficient to cause complete evaporation of analytes.</text>
      <notes>
        <item>The full-evaporation technique is used with both static headspace analysis and dynamic headspace analysis.</item>
        <item>Equilibrium between the condensed and vapor phases no longer exists. As a consequence, the possibility of matrix interferences is reduced and the fraction extracted for low-volatility compounds is increased.</item>
