The final determination stage was performed via UV-visible spectrophotometry. The key parameters (extraction time, HDES type and volume, dispersant volume, pH and sample volume) of the AA-HDES-DLLME method were optimized in detailed using Box-Behnken design. Analysis of variance was used for statistical analysis. Under the optimized conditions, limit of detection (12.1 mu g L-1), limit of quantification (40 mu g L-1), linearity range (40-1000 mu g L-1), and preconcentration factor (140) were determined. While the accuracy of the AA-HDES-DLLME method was investigated with the standard addition approach, its precision was investigated with intraday/interday studies. The method proved to be effective for routine analytical practice for a wide variety of samples. The novelty of the AA-HDES-DLLME method is that it enables the extraction of benzoic acid without the need for heating or centrifugation steps. In this way, the AA-HDES-DLLME method enabled selective extraction of benzoic acid in a shorter time and using less energy compared to similar studies.en10.1016/j.scp.2024.101464info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCarboxylic acidsFood analysisGreen chemistryFood pollutionQuality controlAromatic compoundsArticle382-s2.0-85183987114Q1WOS:001178901800001N/A
