Abstract:

Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) technique is a method to extract bioactive components from liquid or solid materials by supercritical fluid. As one of the methods in green analytical chemistry, it has been widely applied to analyze hazardous substances in food, feedstuff and environmental samples. Since cereal grains are the most important raw materials of food, pesticide contamination in cereal grains becomes one of the main concerns in food safety. In this paper, current applications of unmodified and modified supercritical fluid in analyzing the pesticide residues of cereal grains are reviewed. Besides, future development trends of SFE are also discussed.

Key words: supercritical fluid extraction, cereal grains, pesticide residue
