Green Chemistry Methods for Food Analysis: Overview of Sample Preparation and Determination

Narcos Ozkan

This article provides an in-depth overview of the application of green chemistry principles in food analysis, with a specific focus on sample preparation and determination techniques. Green chemistry, also known as sustainable chemistry, emphasizes the design of environmentally benign processes and methodologies. In the realm of food analysis, this approach aims to reduce chemical waste, minimize energy consumption [1], and employ safer solvents and reagents. The article discusses various green sample preparation techniques, including solid-phase microextraction, supercritical fluid extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction, and microwave-assisted extraction [2]. Additionally, it explores green analytical determination methods such as high-performance liquid chromatography, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, capillary electrophoresis, and biosensors. The applications of green chemistry in pesticide residue analysis, food contaminant detection, and nutritional analysis are highlighted. By adopting green chemistry principles, the food analysis field can contribute to a more sustainable and environmentally responsible approach to ensuring food safety and quality [3].
