Abstract | Biota samples represent one of the most challenging matrices to handle regarding organic micropollutant analysis due to complex matrix constituents including different lipids and proteins amongst others. In this chapter, a broad overview of the state-of-the-art sample preparation methods and their most recent applications including respective advantages and limitations is presented for multi-residue analysis. The advancements in analytical instrumentation and methods over the last decades have opened new possibilities and a better understanding of the monitoring of organic micropollutants in biota. Research interest has shifted from developing specific methods for a small number of hydrophobic organic contaminants with similar properties to multi-residue target screening methods for a wide range of chemicals with diverse properties including chemicals of emerging concern. High-resolution mass spectrometers preceded by chromatographic separation have become one of the main instrumentations hence opening up for suspect and nontarget screening in biomonitoring studies. All these developments require a change in sample handling strategies for biota samples. Considering these aspects, with this chapter, we aim to provide a guidance document for researchers working with biota samples to make the most of their samples and existing instrumentation. |
