In this study the modern microextraction by packed sorbent (MEPS) method followed by HPLC-UV analysis was optimised and evaluated for determination of l-ascorbic acid (AA) content in beverages. In this case 300μL of sample was passed through silica BIN (barrel insert and needle assembly) and entrapped AA was eluted by 60μL of methanol-water (10%, v/v) solution. Recovery of the proposed method for three concentration levels ranged between 97.46% and 106.88% with relative standard deviation 8.7% (low conc.), 2.49% (medium conc.) and 1.98% (high). Obtained results of AA contents in real samples were in the ranges 56.5-195.4μg/mL and 130.4-1090.0μg/mL for ice-tea and fruit juice samples, respectively. Proposed method was compared with iodometric titration and DPPH methods, but microextraction method was found to be more selective for AA determination in tested samples.

In an attempt to enhance the adsorptive properties while addressing the limitations associated with powdered nature, zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-67)-derived cobalt-doped nanoporous carbon (Co-NPC) was incorporated into chitosan and then shaped like hollow fiber by a simple casting method. Further modification with polyaniline (PANI) was also performed to improve extraction efficacy. The applicability of the modified hollow fibers was then investigated by packing them into a cartridge and utilizing them for conducting hollow fibers-packed in-cartridge micro solid-phase extraction (HF-IC µ-SPE) of parabens including methylparaben (MP), ethylparaben (EP), and propylparaben (PP) from human breast milk samples.

The release of harmful compounds, particularly dangerous metal ions, into the environment has drawn deep concern from the scientific community. Therefore, it has become common in research to evaluate and quantify the harmful concentrations in the presence of these metal ions in several real samples (food, water, and biological samples). To increase sensitivity and lessen the impact of the matrix, sample pretreatment is a helpful strategy to implement before analysis.

Article Synopsis
- Sample preparation is still a major challenge in analytical processes, despite improvements in instruments, with solid-phase extraction becoming favored over traditional methods due to its simplicity and reduced solvent needs.
- Various microextraction techniques, particularly in-tube solid-phase microextraction (IT-SPME), have been developed for more efficient sample handling and automation, offering a "green extraction technique" option that minimizes solvent use.
- Innovative materials like molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are enhancing extraction efficiency; MIPs are custom-designed adsorbents that are created through a specific fabrication process to recognize and selectively bind target molecules.
