Application of Dispersive Liquid-Liquid Microextraction in Forensic Toxicological Analysis
Abstract:
Currently, the main sample pretreatment methods for forensic toxic analysis are liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) and solid-phase extraction (SPE). As a simple, convenient, and low-cost LLE method, dispersion liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) has high enrichment factor and good extraction efficiency, and therefore has attracted the attention of many researchers in the field of toxicology analysis in recent years. As a multi-functional microextraction method, DLLME has been widely used in the analysis of pesticides, sleeping sedatives, drugs and heavy metal poisons in forensic toxic analysis. Meanwhile, it can also be used in combination with such a variety of analytical instruments as gas chromatography-electron capture detectors (GC-ECD), high performance liquid chromatography-diode array detectors (HPLC-DAD). As a sample pretreatment method, DLLME has the advantages of simple operation, less use of organic solvent, reliable results and good reproducibility, thus can meet the requirements of modern court toxic analysis.
