Summary:
Current solid-phase microextraction coating technology is an expensive and tedious process. Ohio State researchers have discovered a method to use electrospun fiber-based coatings for solid phase microextraction. This method greatly simplifies the process and costs less.
Potential Applications:
- Laboratory chromotography
- Sensing element for portable biohazard and chemical detectors
- Larger range of surface functionalities
- Higher surface areas
- Thinner coatings
- Higher sample capacities
