“…Finally, on-line automated SPE extraction procedures hyphenated to LC-MS (Marín et al, 2006;Perreau et al, 2007;Pirard et al, 2007) or GG-MS (Planas et al, 2006) systems have been tested, aiming to minimize the time and cost of the sample preparation step. In some cases of fatty samples, gel-permeation chromatography (GPC) and/or GPC followed by SPE (Ballesteros, Sánchez, & H s e l p m a s r e t a W s e d i c i t s e p 0 0 3 -1 Greulich, & Alder, 2008 171 pesticides Fruits, vegetables, Botitsi et al, 2007 136 pesticides Fruit and Mol et al, 2007 187 pesticides Fruit and (Continued) Díez et al, 2006;Fernández Moreno et al, 2006;Garrido Frenich et al, 2006;Guardia-Rubio et al, 2006Pang et al, 2006a;Zhang et al, 2006;Huang et al, 2007;Liu et al, 2007;Van der Lee et al, 2008) or counter-current chromatography (CCC) (Goto et al, 2006a) are required for better clean up. Dispersive SPE (DSPE) or matrix-solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) involves treatment of the sample with a sorbent material either directly or after SE (Banerjee et al, 2007;Mol et al, 2007;Plaza Bolaños, Garrido Frenich, & Martínez Vidal, 2007;Kruves et al, 2008;Ramos et al, 2008;Patil et al, 2009;Radišic' et al, 2009).…”
