“…Up to now, some biocompatible materials, such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) [10,11], polypyrrole [8,[12][13][14][15], poly(ethylene glycol) [16,17], polyacrylonitrile (PAN) [9,[18][19][20][21][22], fluoropolymers [23], chitosan [24,25], collagen [26], and sol-gel coatings [27][28][29][30][31], have been reported as extraction phases for direct-immersion SPME (DI-SPME) for the determination of different analytes in blood, serum, and plasma. However, only a few coating chemistries, such as polypyrrole [12][13][14][15], poly(ethylene glycol) [16,17], PAN [19], and collagen [26], are used for in vivo blood sampling; even though, various drawbacks have hindered their further implementation [6,32].…”
