Most methodologies for analysis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in food systems are laborious, time consuming and need organic solvents, specially for complex matrixes in which PAHs are strongly trapped due to their interaction with different components of the sample (Moret and Conte, 2000). Moreover, the sampling step may deteriorate the quality of several solid foods. Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) is an alternative technique that ean overeome some of these disadvantages. SPME integrates...
