We propose the analytical Eco-Scale as a novel comprehensive approach to evaluating the
greenness of analytical methodology. It is based on assigning penalty points to parameters …

This tutorial review summarises the current state of green analytical chemistry with special
emphasis on environmentally friendly sample preparation techniques. Green analytical …

The current state-of-the-art of passive sampling and/or extraction methods for long-term
monitoring of pollutants in different environmental compartments is discussed in this review …

Microextraction for analytical sample preparations became a reality with the introduction of
solid phase microextraction (SPME) in 1987–90, followed by the development over the next …

The beginning of green chemistry is frequently considered as a response to the need to
reduce the damage of the environment by man-made materials and the processes used to …

Examples of the application of green chemistry in the analytical laboratory are presented.
The principles of this approach include primary elimination or at least reduction of the …

On the basis of vast literature research, it can be concluded that analytics and, particularly,
environmental monitoring, are those areas of analytical chemistry that are expending most …

Chemical analysis requires solvents, reagents and energy and generates waste. The main
goal of green analytical chemistry is to avoid or reduce the undesirable environmental side …

60–80% of the analysis time for a significant number of analytical methods is taken up by the
preparation, treatment, and separation of individual sample components, and most of the …
