A 3D-printed device was designed and assembled using an open-source electronic platform.

Polyamide with 15% carbon fiber was used as the sorbent phase for microextraction.

The device was utilized with a 48-deep well plate system for simultaneous extractions, followed by LC-MS/MS analysis.

Main Results:

Optimal conditions involved 120 min extraction with PA + 15% C sorbent and 300 μL methanol:acetonitrile for desorption.
The method achieved high throughput with up to 48 simultaneous extractions and automated steps.
Validation demonstrated high coefficients of determination (>0.9841), low LODs/LOQs (0.03-3.0 μg L⁻¹ and 0.1-10.0 μg L⁻¹), and acceptable precision and accuracy for environmental water samples.

Conclusions:

The novel 3D-printed PANDA device, integrated with an open-source platform, provides a viable, automated alternative to existing methods.
The device is approximately 10 times cheaper than commercial alternatives, offering a cost-effective solution for laboratories.
This electronically controlled PANDA system opens avenues for greater automation in microextraction techniques.
