Abstract.
The choice of the sample preparation method is crucial in chemical analysis, since it is often the most critical and time-consuming step of an analytical process. Some of the older methods are laborious, expensive, and offer no scope for automation. The newer sample preparation techniques can give higher yields, better sample clean-up, cost effectiveness worker safety and environmental protection. Some novel sample preparation methods are described their potential is illustrated with emphasis on bioanalytical applications.
