“…Conversely, this environmental‐friendly miniaturized MSPDE applied β‐cyclodextrin (β‐CD) as adsorbent and IL as eluent, which was particularly spent less time and consumed few samples and less reagent than the other extraction methods. Some imidazolium ILs were reported to be resistant to biotic degradation processes, which might lead to water pollution and algae toxicity (Pieczyńska et al, ). However, a few investigations about degradation, removal, and reuse of ILs have been reported by scholars particularly (An, Zong, & Wu, ; Coleman & Gathergood, ; Modelli, Sali, Galletti, & Samorì, ; Siedlecka, Stolte, & ˛biowski M.
