Scientific Poster: Increasing Pesticide Extraction Efficiency from Wet Samples with Accelerated Solvent Extraction
9 September 2016
Traditional drying techniques, which involve mixing the wet sample with an inorganic salt that has a high affinity for the aqueous phase, are unsuitable for in-cell extraction. This study presents the use of a novel polymer for in-line drying of a wet sample for the analysis of organochlorine pesticides and polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in different matrices. Data showing recoveries for each of these target compounds in different matrices are presented.
