About
Fatemeh S. Mirnaghi has made pioneering contributions to the development of high-throughput solid-phase microextraction (SPME) technologies, with a particular focus on advancing bioanalytical sample preparation. Her key research areas include the design and optimization of biocompatible thin-film coatings for automated SPME systems, enabling efficient extraction of analytes from complex biological matrices. Her most cited work (170 citations) systematically evaluated three coating preparation methods—dipping, brush painting, and spraying—for a C18-polyacrylonitrile (PAN) coating on a 96-blade SPME system coupled with LC–MS/MS, demonstrating that the spraying method produced the most uniform and reproducible coatings. This breakthrough significantly improved throughput and robustness for analyzing complex samples. In a related study (53 citations), she developed a thin-film octadecyl-silica glass coating for automated 96-blade SPME, successfully applied to the analysis of benzodiazepines. Mirnaghi’s work has been instrumental in translating SPME from manual, low-throughput formats to automated, high-performance platforms, directly impacting fields such as clinical toxicology, environmental monitoring, and pharmaceutical analysis. Her contributions continue to shape modern bioanalytical chemistry by providing faster, cleaner, and more reliable sample preparation solutions.
