Background:The sample preparation is the most crucial step in the analytical method development. Taking this into account, it is easily understood why the domain of sample preparation prior to detection is rapidly developing. Following the modern trends towards the automation, miniaturization, simplification and minimization of organic solvents and sample volumes, green microextraction techniques witness rapid growth in the field of food quality and safety. In a globalized market, it is essential to face the consumers need and develop analytical methods that guarantee the quality of food products and beverages. The strive for the accurate determination of organic hazards in a famous and appreciated alcoholic beverage like wine has necessitated the development of microextraction techniques.Objective:The objective of this review is to summarize all the recent microextraction methodologies, including solid phase extraction (SPE), solid phase microextraction (SPME), liquid-phase microextraction (LPME), dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME), stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE), matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD), single-drop microextraction (SDME) and dispersive solid phase extraction (DSPE) that were developed for the determination of hazardous organic compounds (pesticides, mycotoxins, colorants, biogenic amines, off-flavors) in wine. The analytical performance of the techniques is evaluated and their advantages and limitations are discussed.Conclusion:An extensive investigation of these techniques remains vital through the development of novel strategies and the implication of new materials that could upgrade the selectivity for the extraction of target analytes.

In USA and Europe, medicines agencies force the development of child-appropriate medications and intend to increase the availability of information on the pediatric use. This asks for bioanalytical methods which are able to deal with small sample volumes as the trial-related blood lost is very restricted in children. Broadly used HPLC-MS/MS, being able to cope with small volumes, is susceptible to matrix effects. The latter restrains the precise drug quantification through, for example, causing signal suppression. Sophisticated sample preparation and purification utilizing solid-phase extraction was applied to reduce and control matrix effects. A scale-up from vacuum manifold to positive pressure manifold was conducted to meet the demands of high-throughput within a clinical setting. Faced challenges, advances, and experiences in solid-phase extraction are exemplarily presented on the basis of the bioanalytical method development and validation of low-volume samples (50 μL serum). Enalapril, enalaprilat, and benazepril served as sample drugs. The applied sample preparation and extraction successfully reduced the absolute and relative matrix effect to comply with international guidelines. Recoveries ranged from 77 to 104% for enalapril and from 93 to 118% for enalaprilat. The bioanalytical method comprising sample extraction by solid-phase extraction was fully validated according to FDA and EMA bioanalytical guidelines and was used in a Phase I study in 24 volunteers.

Abstract Due to the extensive use of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) for agricultural purposes and their high persistence and low biodegradability, they have become an important group of contaminants. Detection and quantification of pesticide residues in food, particularly fruits and vegetables, is of growing concern for producers, consumers, and governments. The most widely used pretreatment for the extraction of pesticides in plants is based on solvent extraction liquid-solid extraction (LSE). LSE can be carried out using Soxhlet, shake-flask, homogenization, sonication, and, more recently, microwave-assisted extraction, pressurized liquid extraction, and supercritical fluid extraction. Furthermore, new analytical procedures using the extraction with sorbents, such as solid-phase micro-extraction, stir bar sorptive extraction, and matrix solid-phase dispersion, have also been used. On the other hand, a wide range of cleanup methods (liquid–liquid extraction, solid-phase extraction, gel permeation chromatography, and dispersive solid-phase extraction; and chromatographic techniques with electron capture detector and mass spectrometry detector; and HPLC with a ultraviolet detector are reported in the literature. This article reviews the applicability, advantages, and disadvantages of various sample preparation techniques (traditional and new techniques) for the analysis of OCPs in different plants and plant materials. It covers more than 15 years of published methods in which pesticide residues have been determined in a wide range of vegetation samples (fruits, horticultural samples, medicinal plants, tree leaves, etc.) by the use of chromatographic techniques after various sample preparation steps. A great number of applications in different plant material are provided. To the best of the authors' knowledge, previously published reviews have not covered as wide and exhaustive range of vegetation matrixes as presented here. A summary of pesticide levels cited in the literature is included.

Objective: To develop a method for the determination of diphenhydramine hydrochloride in syrups.Methods: The developed method is based on the active ingredient recovery from the pharmaceutical formulation using a cartridge for selective solid phase extraction. This procedure is simple and fast as compared to the methods that require liquid/liquid extraction. Once the sample is eluted from the cartridge, it is injected directly into a reversed-phase chromatographic system containing a mixture of acetonitrile: 10 mmol ammonium acetate: triethylamine 60:39.5:0.5.Results: The proposed method fulfilled the validation parameters (linearity R2>0.99, precision CV<2% and accuracy 98-102%).Conclusion: The proposed method proved to be reliable when it was applied in the quantification of diphenhydramine hydrochloride of two commercial syrup products.
