The use of green and sustainable extraction techniques is very popular topic in the multidisciplinary area of chemistry, biology and technology. There is no doubt that extraction constitutes a very important step of analytical procedures of separation, detection, identification and determination of wide spectrum analytes from samples characterized by complex and very often nonhomogeneous composition of matrix. Traditional techniques used for the solvent extraction of target compounds can be characterized by longer extraction time and lower extraction yield, use of large amount of toxic organic solvents and poor extraction efficiency. Nowadays use green extraction techniques is becoming more and more popular and widespread. In this chapter information on ultrasound assisted extraction technique as an environmental-friendly and economically viable alternative to conventional extraction techniques are presented. It also provides the necessary theoretical background about mechanism, recommendations for optimum operating conditions for maximizing the extraction yield and the possibility of coupling ultrasound assisted extraction with other analytical techniques. An overview of different applications of UAE has also been presented.
