“…Given a comprehensive consideration of all the method procedures as well as the aspects of cost-effectiveness, testing speeding, convenience, method performance, purpose, degree of difficulty for introducing the testing, robustness, accuracy, safety, and environmental protection, it is evident that all of these methods have their advantages and disadvantages. The improvement history of MMA testing shows that the method procedures basically consist of one or more of the following steps: multistep solid-phase extraction (SPE), derivations, protein precipitation, and ultrafiltration, while to complete the above step, at least one of the processes of evaporations, incubations, heating, dryings, reconsititutions, or centrifugations is required [ 14 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 ]. Improvements in procedures have usually focused on reducing these steps by changing different reagents or materials or by applying new materials [ 14 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 ].…”
