Solid-phase extraction: method development, sorbents, and coupling with liquid chromatography
TL;DR: The objective of this review is to provide updated information about the most important features of the new solid-phase extraction (SPE) materials, their interaction mode and their potential for modern SPE.
Journal ArticleDOI
Agriculture, pesticides, food security and food safety
TL;DR: The use of agrochemicals, including pesticides, remains a common practice especially in tropical regions and South countries, but remain popular in developing countries as discussed by the authors, as a consequence, persistent residues of these chemicals contaminate food and disperse in the environment.

Determination of pesticides and their degradation products in soil: critical review and comparison of methods
Vicente Andreu,Yolanda Picó +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the most relevant analytical methods for determining pesticides and their transformation products in soils are discussed and critically evaluated, such as liquid extraction methods (pressurized liquid extraction or microwave assisted extraction) and solid phase based methods (headspace solid-phase microextraction, solid phase micro-extraction or matrix-solid phase dispersion).
