ABSTRACT

Microextraction Techniques in Analytical Toxicology provides the information readers need to include about cutting-edge sample preparation techniques into their everyday analytical practice, including comprehensive information about principles and state-of-the-art microextraction sample preparation techniques for the analysis of drugs and poisons in biological specimens, especially in forensic and clinical settings.

This book also focuses on theoretical discussions of solid-based and liquid-based microextraction techniques, their method development, validation, and applications. A detailed compilation of analytical protocols based on published microextraction procedures to aid in method development, synthesis, and the application of green solvents (ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvents) and new sorbents, such as molecularly imprinted polymers, and their application in microextraction techniques are also covered.

Features:

  • Provides a systematic review of microextraction techniques applied in analytical toxicology
  • A comprehensive guide for the practical implementation of microextraction techniques in forensic, clinical, and analytical laboratories
  • Contains figures and tables for easy understanding and quick adaptation of the parameters of microextraction techniques
  • Fundamentals, development, and applications of microextraction techniques as a sample preparation procedure are discussed in detail
  • Extremely useful for the researchers and academicians engaged in analytical method development using microextraction techniques

This book appeals to a wide readership of forensic, clinical, and analytical toxicologists, as well as academicians and researchers. Written by eminent scientists and leading experts on sample preparation techniques, this book serves as a desk reference for routine laboratory analysis and as an indispensable teaching tool in the classroom for graduate and Ph.D. students.
