In this work, a dynamic-electromembrane extraction (d-EME) device was developed for the extraction of neuropeptides. On the basis of a thin polypropylene hollow fiber (50 μm of wall-thickness and 280 μm i.d.), this setup allowed for a continual renewal of the acceptor compartment. Because of the reduced size of the device, high preconcentration factors were obtained (up to 50-fold). The extraction remained constant regardless of the extraction time (from 15 to 45 min); accordingly, this new setup minimized the effect of electrolysis on extraction performance while enabling high extraction yield (up to 72%) for most lipophilic neuropeptides.

In the present research, dynamic electromembrane extraction (DEME) was introduced for the first time for extraction and determination of ionizable species from different biological matrices. The setup proposed for DEME provides an efficient, stable, and reproducible method to increase extraction efficiency. This setup consists of a piece of hollow fiber mounted inside a glass flow cell by means of two plastics connector tubes.
