Since the introduction of solid-phase microextraction (SPME) in the 1990s, different types of coating have shown their crucial role in extraction efficiency. In the past decade, unique properties of nanostructured materials (e.g., large surface area, and remarkable thermal, mechanical and chemical stability) led to their application as desirable coatings in SPME.The current review classifies nanomaterial–based SPME coatings as based on carbon, polymer, silica or metal nanoparticles. It also briefly discusses new developments and methods in preparing nanomaterial-based SPME coatings.
