Sample preparation is an essential step in the analytical process. It involves preparing a sample so that it can be analyzed accurately. The goal is to extract the analyte, the substance you want to measure, from the sample while removing any components that may interfere with the analysis. Sample preparation techniques vary depending on the physical state of the sample.

Bulk or large solid samples are typically reduced in size using grinding, crushing, or milling techniques to increase the sample surface area and provide a more efficient analysis. After grinding, the sample is sieved and mixed to ensure a uniform composition. The powdered sample is then dissolved in a suitable solvent to extract the analyte from the solid matrix. The solvent choice depends on the analyte's nature and the solubility characteristics of the sample components.

Liquid samples that contain suspended solid particles or precipitates are conventionally subjected to filtration or centrifugation to separate the solid impurities from the liquid. Filtration involves passing the liquid through a filter, while centrifugation uses centrifugal (spinning) force to separate the solids from the liquid phase. If the analyte is present in trace amounts, the liquid samples are subjected to pretreatment of concentration steps to increase the analyte concentration for better detection.

Sample preparation is usually unnecessary for analyzing gaseous analytes as the gas sample can be directly introduced into the analytical instrument.
