| 1 | Design of experiment in the development of SPME method for the determination of pesticide residues in fruits and vegetables |
The various microextraction techniques have been developed in order to reduce sample preparation time, improve sensitivity and selectivity as well as to corroborate the recent advances in the development of highly sensitive and efficient analytical instrumentation. The current trend is aimed at the simplification and miniaturization of extraction steps, which has led to the combination of multi-step extraction and analytical analysis into single uninterrupted step. The method development involves the screening and subsequent optimization of both gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and solid phase microextraction (SPME) parameters using multivariate experimental design, which has been shown to be efficient and effective with little experimental runs. The use of microextraction has been very effective in the analysis of contaminants in food, water and the environments to ensure they are safe and does not pose any health risk to human | Abdulra’uf, L.
