Abstract Electromembrane extraction (EME) was invented in 2006 as a miniaturized sample preparation technique for the separation of ionized species from aqueous samples. This concept has been investigated in different areas of analytical chemistry by different research groups worldwide since the introduction. Under the influence of an electrical field, EME is based on electrokinetic migration of the analytes through a supported liquid membrane (SLM), which is an organic solvent immobilized in the pores of the polymeric membrane, and into the acceptor solution. Up to date, close to 150 research articles with focus on EME have been published. The current review summarizes the performance of EME with different organic solvents and discusses several criteria for efficient solvents in EME. In addition, the authors highlight their personal perspective about the most promising organic solvents for EME and have indicated that more fundamental work is required to investigate and discover new organic solvents for EME.

电膜萃取中的有机溶剂：最新见解

摘要 电膜萃取 (EME) 于 2006 年发明，作为一种微型样品制备技术，用于从水样中分离离子物质。自引入以来，世界各地的不同研究小组在分析化学的不同领域对这一概念进行了研究。在电场的影响下，EME 基于分析物通过支持液膜 (SLM) 的电动迁移，该液膜是一种固定在聚合物膜孔中的有机溶剂，并进入受体溶液。迄今为止，已发表近 150 篇以 EME 为重点的研究文章。本综述总结了使用不同有机溶剂时 EME 的性能，并讨论了 EME 中有效溶剂的几个标准。此外，
