Introduction to Electromembrane Extraction (EME) – A New, Efficient, and Green Sample Preparation Technique
Frederik André Hansen
Frederik received his PhD on EME at Department of Pharmacy (UiO) in 2021 and today continues to develop the capabilities of electromembrane extraction as a postdoctorial fellow at UiO. His has published more than 30 articles on EME, covering fundamentals, technical formats, solvent chemistry, method development strategies, application development, and may be considered one of the world’s leading experts in the field.

What to expect from the course?
Electromembrane extraction (EME) is a miniaturized sample preparation technique invented at University of Oslo, and commercialized in 2024. EME is characterized by extracting analytes from complex matrices into a neat aqueous solution in a single step using very little organic solvent, while providing very efficient clean-up of proteins, lipids, salts, endogenous metabolites (unless targeted), and many other matrix components. The course will introduce the principle of EME and its advantages, discuss methods and method development, give an overview of representative applications and demonstrate commercial equipment.
