PREPARO DE AMOSTRAS ASSISTIDO POR CAMPO ELÉTRICO: FUNDAMENTOS, AVANÇOS, APLICAÇÕES E TENDÊNCIAS

Sample preparation is commonly considered a key step to achieve selective, sensitive, and reliable chemical analyses, particularly those involving complex matrices. Although the application of electric fields to improve the speed and efficiency of sample preparation methods has been proven, this approach is still considered to be state-of-the-art; hence, further development is necessary to improve future applications. This review describes the fundamentals, advances, applications, and perspectives of using electric fields to enhance sample preparation techniques such as liquid-liquid and solid-liquid extractions in conventional and microscale devices.
