“…Traditional Soxhlet extraction which is recommended by ISO (ISO/DIS 16703:2011) and US EPA (EPA Method 9071A), accelerated solvent extraction, solid phase micro extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, ultrasonic solvent extraction, and supercritical fluid extraction are the most frequently used extraction methods. [11][12][13][14][15][17][18][19] Soxhlet extraction provides stable test results, however, it takes lengthy extraction times (4 h per sample) and large volumes of organic solvents. [19][20][21][22] Accelerated solvent extraction, solid phase micro extraction, and supercritical fluid extraction need special and expensive instruments, and they are not well suited for routine analysis.…”
