To measure a method’s environmental friendliness and its sustainability, one must consider its productivity and analytical performance.

This article outlines the relevance of extraction techniques, including exhaustive and non-exhaustive ones, in onsite strategies.

Headspace-solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) is widely used for the analysis of volatile compounds from different kinds of samples.

Passive samplers come in many forms and can be used in various fields. Here, we review multiple advances made to this sampling strategy.

Vacuum-assisted headspace solid-phase microextraction (Vac-HS-SPME) is quickly becoming popular for enhancing the extraction of semi-volatile compounds.

Daniel Wolbrecht, senior technical sales consultant at Anton Paar, held a workshop at the Gulf Coast Conference in Galveston, Texas, focusing on how heated autosampler units can help analyze difficult samples.

In this article, the author reports the results from a survey of trends in sample preparation techniques.
