Improvements in materials for microextraction techniques in pesticide analysis of fruit juices: Update of the last decade

Abstract

This review presents an overview of the recent advancements in microextraction techniques for pesticide residues analysis in fruit juices, focusing on the period from 2014 to 2024. Research articles were screened through the Scopus database using pesticides, juice, and microextraction as keywords. Emphasis is devoted to newly introduced solid supports and advanced materials employed in both micro solid-phase and liquid-phase extraction techniques. By evaluating various representative studies, the review highlights the synthesis of novel sorbent materials and their application efficiency. Additionally, the Blue Applicability Grade Index is utilized to assess the practicality and effectiveness of each microextraction technique, identifying both their strengths and weaknesses. The review aims to guide future research directions in the development of more efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally friendly microextraction methods for pesticide residues analysis in juices.
