Abstract:
Fabric phase sorptive extraction (FPSE) has gradually become more widespread as a novel sorptive extraction technique since it has a number of advantages including a wide range of available materials, cheap and easy performance and highly efficient extraction. Because of this, FPSE has been applied in different fields to extract various types of analytes from different kinds of samples. In particular, it has been widely used in environmental applications.This review covers the use of FPSE in environmental samples. It discusses the optimization of the variables involved during FPSE and presents novel FPSE approaches applied to environmental samples. It also reviews figures of merit obtained using the FPSE methods developed and summarizes data on the occurrence of contam-inants in different types of environmental samples. This is done by looking at a selection of different studies in which FPSE is applied to analyze environmental samples.
