COMPARATIVE STUDY OF C18- AND STYRENE-DIVINYLBENZENE-BASED SORBENTS FOR THE ENRICHMENT OF PHENOLS FROM WATER
2001
The potential of solid-phase extraction with C18- and styrene divinylbenzene-based sorbents for the preconcentration of phenols from water samples has been evaluated for a variety of phenols of different polarities: phenol, o-, m- and p-cresol, 2-chlorophenol, and 4-chloro-3-methylphenol. The extraction efficiencies have been calculated for different volumes of samples containing the analytes at different concentration levels. The UV limits of detection were of 1–5 ng/mL, for the method using Bond Elut C18 cartridges and sample volumes of 25 mL, and 0.05–0.1 ng/mL (except for 4-chloro-3-methylphenol) for the method using the polymeric sorbent Bond Elut PPL and 1000 mL of the samples. Possib…
Improved detection limit for ammonium/ammonia achieved by Berthelot's reaction by use of solid-phase extraction coupled to diffuse reflectance spectr…
2005
Abstract The proposed procedure is based on the extraction of the indothylmol blue into C 18 solid-phase extraction (SPE) membranes and direct quantification on the membrane surface by diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The analytical performance of the proposed method has been evaluated for standard solutions of ammonium using reflectance values, R , as well as the Kubelka–Munk function, F ( R ). The results have been compared with those obtained by the conventional method, which uses UV–vis absorption spectroscopy with a sensor-based method. The described methodology provided satisfactory linearity and reproducibility within the ammonium concentration intervals 25–250 μg L −1 and 25–500 μg…
Determination of N-nitrosodiethanolamine in cosmetic products by reversed-phase dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction followed by liquid chromatog…
2016
A new analytical method for the determination of N-nitrosodiethanolamine (NDELA), a very harmful compound not allowed in cosmetic products, is presented. The method is based on a new approach of dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) useful for extraction of highly polar compounds, called reversed-phase DLLME (RP-DLLME), followed by liquid chromatography-ultraviolet/visible (LC-UV/Vis) determination. The variables involved in the RP-DLLME process were studied to provide the best enrichment factors. Under the optimized conditions, a mixture of 750µL of acetone (disperser solvent) and 125µL of water (extraction solvent) was rapidly injected into 5mL of toluene sample solution. The e…
Preconcentration and dansylation of aliphatic amines using C18 solid-phase packings
2002
Abstract Precolumn preconcentration and derivatization on solid sorbents (Bond Elut C18 solid-phase extraction cartridges) of low-molecular-mass aliphatic amines in water samples have been performed using dansyl chloride (Dns-Cl) as derivatization reagent. Conditions for analyte preconcentration and derivatization such as volume sample, reagent concentration, time, pH and temperature reaction were optimised. On the basis of these studies a rapid and sensitive method for screening of aliphatic amines in waters is presented. Up to volumes of 5 ml, samples are drawn through the sorbent, the analytes retained are dansylated at basic pH, at 100 °C for 10 min or 85 °C for 15 min. The derivatized …
A headspace solid-phase microextraction method of use in monitoring hexanal and pentane during storage: Application to liquid infant foods and powder…
2006
The determination of two secondary lipid oxidation compounds (hexanal and pentane) in liquid infant foods using a headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatographic (HS-SPME-GC) method has been developed and validated. The HS-SPME analytical conditions (fibre position, equilibration and sampling times) were selected. The analytical parameters of the method (linearity: hexanal from 2.48 to 84.78 ng/g, pentane from 6.21 to 79.55 ng/g; precision: hexanal 2.87%, pentane 2.343.46%; recovery: hexanal 106.60%, pentane 95.39%; detection limit: hexanal 3.63 ng and pentane 4.2 ng) demonstrate the usefulness of the method. Once optimized, the method was applied to liquid infant foods based on m…
In-tube solid-phase microextraction and liquid chromatography using a monolithic column for the selective determination of residual ethylenediamine i…
2009
The selective determination of the diamine ethylenediamine (EDA) in the presence of a higher amount of residual dimethylamine in cationic polymers has been developed. The strategy uses both a solution derivatization with a selective agent of primary amines such as o-phthaldialdehyde-N-acetyl-L-cysteine (OPA-NAC) and an in-tube solid-phase microextraction (IT-SPME) coupled to liquid chromatography (LC). A 70 cm long, 0.32 mm internal diameter, and 3 microm thick commercially available capillary column coated with 95% polydimethylsiloxane and 5% polydiphenylsiloxane was employed to replace the injection loop of a Rheodyne injection valve. A volume of 1 mL of derivatized sample was passed thro…
A cost-effective method for estimating di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate in coastal sediments.
2013
This study describes the development of a new method for the analysis of di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP) using 0.1-0.3 g of sediment sample, based on matrix solid phase dispersion (MSPD) using C18 as dispersant phase (0.4 g) and acetonitrile-water as eluting solvent (3.4 mL 1:3.25, v/v). No evaporation step is required. 3 mL of extracts were processed on-line by in-tube solid phase microextraction (IT-SPME) coupled to capillary liquid chromatography (CapLC) and diode array detector (DAD). A short analytical column Zorbax SB C18 (35×0.5 mm, 5 μm) provided suitable results. FTIR-ATR was employed for characterizing sediment samples and MSPD procedure. The total analysis time was less than 20 …
Rapid screening of organophosphorus pesticides in honey and bees by liquid chromatography—Mass spectrometry
2002
Twenty-two organophosphorus pesticide residues were simultaneously determined in honey and honeybee samples by extraction procedures based on solid-phase and liquid chromatography-atmospheric pressure chemical ionization-mass in positive and negative ionization modes. Pesticides in honeybee samples were extracted by matrix solid phase dispersion with C18 silica and subsequently eluted with a mixture of dichloromethane-methanol (85∶15, v/v). The average recoveries from spiked honeybees (0.5–10 μg g−1) ranged from 76% for coumaphos to 100% for omethoate, with relative standard deviations between 3 and 17%. Limits of detection were ≤0.13 μg g−1 and limits of quantification were ≤0.43 μg g−1. H…
Automated on-line in-tube solid-phase microextraction-assisted derivatization coupled to liquid chromatography for quantifying residual dimethylamine…
2008
Abstract A method for the analysis of dimethylamine (DMA) by automated in-tube solid-phase microextraction (IT-SPME)-supported chemical derivatization coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography was developed. Extraction, derivatization and desorption were studied by using a capillary coated with 95% polydimethylsiloxane and 5% polydiphenylsiloxane. Solution derivatization and automated IT-SPME derivatization using 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC) were compared. The proposed procedure provided adequate linearity, accuracy and precision in the 0.2–2.0 μg/mL concentration interval, and the limit of detection (LOD) was 50 ng/mL. The main advantages of the proposed procedure are: …
Determination of pesticides in soil samples by solid phase extraction disks
1993
A systematic study comparing the methodology and analytical results obtained in an investigation of seven pesticide residues (Molinate, Atrazine, Carbofuran, Pirimicarb, Prometryn, Malathion and Tetrachlorvinphos) in soil samples is reported. Solid-phase extraction (SPE) using glass columns and 47 mm disks of octyl and octadecyl-bonded silica was used in the pesticide analysis. The best extraction efficiency and clearest extracts are obtained with C8 disks. The analyses were carried out by capillary gas chromatography with nitrogen and phosphorus detection. Recovery experiments were performed at ppb levels in spiked soil samples. The average recoveries of the compounds were 53–77%. Detectio…
