Abstract: | A fast and effective sample cleanup procedure for the quantification of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in fish samples is presented. The procedure involved extraction of fish samples using acetonitrile and cleanup by an automated gel-permeation chromatography (GPC) following liquid?Cliquid partition into n-hexane. The extracted samples were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC?CMS). Electron ionization was employed in a single analysis for the determination of PAHs in the selected ion monitoring mode. Three different solvents were studied for the extraction step: acetonitrile/n-hexane, methanol/n-hexane and acetone/n-hexane. The best solvent was found to be acetonitrile/n-hexane. The cleanup technique resulted in a good separation of analytes from co-extractive matrix compounds. |
