In this study, the intentional incorporation of an air bubble into a solvent droplet is proposed for fully automated bubble-in-drop microextraction–gas chromatography–mass spectrometric (BID-GC–MS) analysis of selected organochlorine pesticides as model analytes.
By optimizing and fully automating the bubble-in-drop microextraction process, this sample preparation technique, combined with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) analysis, provides high precision and good figures of merit, as shown for selected organochlorine pesticides in the analysis of tap water and reservoir water samples.
In this extended special feature to celebrate the 30th anniversary edition of LCGC Europe, leading figures from the separation science community explore contemporary trends in separation science and identify possible future developments. We asked key opinion leaders in the field to discuss the current state of the art in sample preparation.
In this installment, the subject of LPME is reviewed, with emphasis on the use of hollow fibers.
