Development and comparative analysis of single-drop and solid-phase microextraction techniques in the residual determination of 2-phenoxyethanol in fish.

Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and single-drop microextraction (SDME) in headspace mode, were used in the residual determination of the anesthetic 2-phenoxyethanol in fish fillets, to ensure food safety. For the optimization of the methodologies the experimental central composite design (CCD) was used, resulting in accurate evaluations with less amount of analysis. The developed methodologies presented good precision in the evaluated range, o limits of detection (LD) and quantification (LQ) for SDME were 0.

Residual determination of anesthetic menthol in fishes by SDME/GC-MS.

The SDME-GC/MS method was applied to residual determination of anesthetic menthol in fish. The extractions took place from the headspace of the sample using 1.8µL of octane as the extraction solvent.
