  Although analytical instrument has enjoyed unprecedented improvements in recent years, resulting in miniaturization, enhanced sensitivity, robust control systems as well as extended separation and detection capability, analytical and bioanalytical sample preparation still remain as the most challenging and time-consuming step in the analytical workflow. Collection of a representative sample is generally followed by a series of operations, collectively known as sample preparation and often include filtration, centrifugation, protein precipitation, analyte extraction, elution in organic solvent, solvent evaporation, and sample reconstitution. Many of these steps are carried out manually that ultimately prolongs the overall analysis time. Capsule Phase Microextraction (CPME), a green and new generation sample preparation technique, has been developed to streamline current state-of-the-ar.. View More»
