Abstract:
This review discusses the most recent developments and future challenges in the application of solid phase microextraction (SPME) for sampling of live biological samples. The emphasis is placed on applications of fiber SPME for analysis of volatile emissions and drugs in biological fluids. The method development section highlights the main parameters that need to be considered in the case of in vivo experiments: extraction techniques, selection of extraction phases, calibration procedures, determination of free concentrations, and automation.

Sampling Methods: Sample Types
Solid samples include a variety of substances, such as sediments from water bodies, soil, metals, and biological tissues. Two standard methods for extracting sediments from water bodies are grab sampling and piston coring. Grab sampling involves using a device to collect a discrete sediment sample from the bottom of a water body with minimal disturbance. Grab samples do not always represent the entire area due to...
