  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-006699",
  "term": "Liquid-phase microextraction",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A sample preparation technique that involves the extraction of analytes from an aqueous sample into a small volume of an immiscible organic solvent. This method uses a microdrop of solvent or a solvent-impregnated membrane to achieve high enrichment factors for target compounds. It is often employed for environmental and biological sample analysis due to its low solvent consumption.",
