“…Regardless of the form of steroids determined during the analysis, the quantification of steroid hormones at trace levels necessitates preliminary sample concentration. The most commonly employed techniques for this purpose include liquid-liquid extraction [ 19 , 20 , 21 ], solid-phase extraction [ 22 , 23 , 24 ], and dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction [ 25 , 26 , 27 ]. In addition, it is imperative to consider that performing non-targeted steroid screening, encompassing estrogens, androgens, progestins, and corticosteroids simultaneously, poses significant challenges due to the switching the polarity required during analysis.…”
