Abstract
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are hazardous organic contaminants that pose a significant chemical risk to consumers. One of the main sources of PAHs occurrence in food is the oil spills that can reach the seafood chain. The extraction of PAHs from such matrices can be challenging. Here, we describe the association of matrix solid-phase dispersion (MSPD) and pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) to extract and concentrate PAHs from several seafood matrices such as mussels, oysters, fish, and prawns, resulting in extracts that can be analyzed using GC-MS/MS.
