This book offers comprehensive information on the developments and applications of the solid
phase microextraction (SPME) technique. The first part of the book briefly introduces readers
to the fundamentals of SPME while subsequent sections describe the applications of SPME
technique in detail including environmental analysis (air water soil sediments) food
analysis (volatile nonvolatile compounds) and bioanalysis (plants animal tissues body
fluids). The advantages and future challenges of the SPME technique are also
discussed.Including recent research advances and further developments of SPME the book offers
a practical reference guide and a valuable resource for researchers and users of SPME
techniques. The target audience includes analytical chemists environmental scientists
biological scientists material scientists and analysts as well as students at universities
institutes in related fields.Dr. Gangfeng Ouyang is a Professor at the School of Chemistry and
Chemical Engineering Sun Yat-sen University China.Dr. Ruifen Jiang is an Associate Professor
at the School of Environment Jinan University China.
