Supercritical fluid extraction coupled on-line with mass spectrometry and spectroscopic techniques

  • Chapter
Analytical Supercritical Fluid Extraction Techniques

Abstract

Previous chapters have described the on-line coupling of supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) with a variety of chromatographic techniques, including: gas chromatography (GC), capillary supercritical fluid chromatography (cSFC), packed column supercritical fluid chromatography (SFC) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Three major advantages of coupling SFE with chromatography are that:

  • all of the extracted analytes can be transferred (if required) to the chromatographic system, this being particularly valuable in the case of ultra-tracelevel studies

  • provided robust on-line SFE procedures can be developed, considerable savings in analyses times can be achieved

  • potential errors associated with off-line sample preparation manipulations can be eliminated.
