  "term": "Single-drop microextraction",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A microextraction technique where a small drop of an immiscible organic solvent is suspended at the tip of a microsyringe needle and exposed to an aqueous sample. Analytes from the sample partition into the solvent drop, which is then retracted and analyzed, typically by gas chromatography. This method offers high enrichment factors and uses minimal solvent volumes.",
