Nanomaterials for microextraction techniques in bioanalysis

• The analysis of biological samples (bioanalysis) always needs intensive sample cleanup (sample preparation) before it gets injected into the analytical instruments. In bioanalysis, sample preparation has an essential role because of the complexity of the biological matrix. Among popular sample preparation techniques, microextraction techniques received high attention because of needs of low volume of used solvent and sample. The sorbent may has high influence on the method selectivity and recovery. Because of their high surface area, ultra-small size, high physical and chemical stability properties, nanomaterials attained huge attention in sample preparation for analytical and bioanalytical trends. In this chapter, the different types and applications of nanomaterials in microextraction analysis and bioanalysis will be summarized and discussed. In addition, recently published papers on the relevance of nanomaterials as sorbents in microextraction for bioanalysis will be presented and the application of nanomaterials for online analysis procedures will be included.
