This work proposes for the first time, a metric tool that gives prominence to sample
preparation. The developed metric (termed AGREEprep) was based on 10 categories of …

The ten principles of GSP are presented with the aim of establishing a road map toward the
development of overall greener analytical methodologies. Paramount aspects for greening …

In this work, blue applicability grade index (BAGI) is proposed as a new metric tool for
evaluating the practicality of an analytical method. BAGI can be considered complementary …

Green analytical chemistry encourages reducing the use of toxic chemicals/reagents, using
energy-efficient equipment, and generating minimal waste. The recent trends in analytical …

Green analytical chemistry (GAC) is a concept to encourage using energy-saving
instruments, decreasing the use of toxic agents or compounds, and producing waste with a …

Metrics for green chemistry are to identify features of a chemical process that adhere to the
green chemistry principles. Several metrics are available for assessing analytical method …

Abstract The concept of White Analytical Chemistry (WAC) is presented as an extension
of​​ Green Analytical Chemistry (GAC). We propose the 12 WAC principles as an …

Sample preparation is a key step in most analytical methods, generally regarded as the least
green step of the entire procedure. The existing green metrics assess the greenness of …

Green chemistry principles have been incorporated into various disciplines of chemistry,
including analytical chemistry, as an ongoing awareness and interest in the state of the …

Green analytical chemistry focuses on making analytical procedures more environmentally
benign and safer to humans. The amounts and toxicity of reagents, generated waste, energy …
