Solid-phase microextraction(SPME) is an innovation of solvent free sample preparation technology which successfully overcomes traditional sample preparation methods by integrating sample handling operations such as extraction,pre-concentration,and instrumental analysis into a single step.It has been widely used to analyze flavor components due to its simple,inexpensive,solvent-free,time-efficient,portable and easy-to-automate properties.Aquatic products are popular among customers because of its special aroma.Study on volatile flavor compounds of aquatic products is to provide some reference on freshness evaluation,processing and quality control.This review describes the solid-phase microextraction technique and its development.It summarizes the current research in aquatic products.Meanwhile,the promising prospect of SPME for future application in aquatic products is also discussed.
