The different between solid-phase extraction (SPE) and matrix solid-phase dispersion (MPSD) [14, 15].

No.SPE techniqueMPSD technique

1A method used to purify analytes from a sample by sorption onto a disposable solid-phase cartridge, followed by elution of the analyte with a solvent before analysis using liquid chromatography; this method can increase the selectivity of LCA method that involves simultaneous disruption and extraction of various solid and semisolid samples owing to the direct mechanical blending of the sample

2Sample should be prepared step-by-step, and some of the sample components should be dispersed during the process in order to make sure the analyte is suitable for SPE columnThis technique makes sure all the sample components are extracted, and none of them is discarded

3Only the specific analyte will be detectedAs none of the components are discarded, physical and chemical interactions inside the components occur

4Sample is absorbed onto the top of the column packing materialThis technique ensures the sample is not absorbed throughout the column
