title: [Advances in the fiber coating of solid phase micro-extraction].
abstract: Solid phase micro-extraction (SPME) is a simple and effective sample preparation technique and fiber coatings play a very important role in SPME process. The discussion begins with a brief historical perspective from the very early work conducted almost a decade ago. At the moment, more than 20 alternatives of fiber coatings and size are available. In this paper, the coatings are divided into two categories: commercial fibers and custom-made fibers. A novel so-gel method has been introduced for the preparation of the coatings.
