A rapid and simple microextraction method with a high sample clean-up, termed as tandem air-agitated liquid–liquid microextraction (TAALLME), is described. This method is based upon the tandem implementation of the air-agitated liquid–liquid microextraction (AALLME), and this approach improves the applicability of the dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (DLLME) methods in complicated matrices. With very simple tools, the three non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs diclofenac, ibuprofen, and mefenamic acid were efficiently extracted, with an overall extraction time of 7 min. By performing the first AALLME, these acidic analytes, contained in an aqueous sample solution (donor phase, 8.0 mL), were extracted into the organic solvent (1,2-dichloroethane, 37 μL), and their simple back-extraction into the aqueous acceptor solution (pH, 10.01, 51 μL) was obtained in 2 min by a second implementation of …
