Miniaturized matrix solid‐phase dispersion coupled with supramolecular solvent‐based microextraction for the determination of paraben preservatives in cream samples

An analytical method is presented for the determination of paraben preservatives in semisolid cream samples by matrix solid‐phase dispersion combined with supramolecular solvent‐based microextraction. Due to the oily and sticky nature of the sample matrix, parabens were first extracted from the samples by matrix solid‐phase dispersion using silica as sorbent material with a clean‐up performed with tetrahydrofuran in the elution step. The eluate (500 μL), 1‐decanol (120 μL), and water (4.4 mL) were then mixed in a polyethylene pipette to form supramolecular solvent. Finally, the analytes in the supramolecular solvent were separated and determined by liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. Under optimal extraction conditions, the extraction recoveries of the studied compounds were obtained in the range of 63–83%. The limits of detection for the analytes were between 0.03 and 0.04 μg/g. The precision of the method varied between 4.0–6.7 (intraday) and 6.2–7.9% (interday). Finally, the optimized procedure was applied to the determination of the target preservatives in a variety of cream samples (diaper rash, skin allergy, face and hand moisturizing) with satisfactory recoveries (86–102%).     

Poly(ionic liquids)‐coated stainless‐steel wires packed into a polyether ether ketone tube for in‐tube solid‐phase microextraction

An in‐tube solid‐phase microextraction device was developed by packing poly(ionic liquids)‐coated stainless‐steel wires into a polyether ether ketone tube.

Compared with estrogens and plasticizers, extraction coating shows better extraction efficiency for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.     

Comparison of headspace solid‐phase microextraction and solvent extraction method for the simultaneous analysis of various soil fumigants in soil or water by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry

The quantity of soil fumigants has increased globally that has focused attention on their environmental behavior. However, simultaneous analysis of traces of fumigant residues is often unreported because analysis methods are not readily available to measure them at low concentrations. In this study, typical solvent extraction methods were compared with headspace solid‐phase microextraction methods. Both methods can be used for simultaneously measuring the concentrations of five commonly used soil fumigants in soil or water. The solvent extraction method showed acceptable recovery (76–103%) and intraday relative standard deviations (0.8–11%) for the five soil fumigants. The headspace solid‐phase microextraction method also showed acceptable recovery (72–104%) and precision rates (1.3–17%) for the five soil fumigants. The solvent extraction method was more precise and more suitable for analyzing relatively high fumigant residue levels (0.05–5 μg/g) contained in multiple soil samples. The headspace solid‐phase microextraction method, however, had a much lower limits of detection (0.09–2.52 μg/kg or μg/L) than the solvent extraction method (5.8–29.2 μg/kg), making headspace solid‐phase microextraction most suitable for trace analysis of these fumigants. The results confirmed that the headspace solid‐phase microextraction method was more convenient and sensitive for the determination of fumigants to real soil samples.

During extraction, important factors such as extraction time, pH, temperature, and ionic strength were optimized. The fabricated fiber, which is firm, inexpensive, stable, and efficient, is a vital material used in solid‐phase microextraction. Under optimum conditions, the calibration curve was linear and in the range of 1–20 μg/L (r² = 0.9747). The high extraction efficiency was obtained for phthalates with a detection limit of 0.12 μg/L.

The determination of 15 pyrethroids in soil and water samples was carried out by gas chromatography with mass spectrometry. Compounds were extracted from the soil samples (4 g) using solid–liquid extraction and then salting‐out assisted liquid–liquid extraction. The acetonitrile phase obtained (0.8 mL) was used as a dispersant solvent, to which 75 μL of chloroform was added as an extractant solvent, submitting the mixture to dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction.

The solvent was evaporated and reconstituted with 100 μL acetonitrile before injection. Matrix‐matched calibration is recommended for quantification of soil samples, while water samples can be quantified by standards calibration. The limits of detection were in the range of 0.03–0.5 ng/g (soil) and 0.09–0.24 ng/mL (water), depending on the analyte. The analyzed environmental samples did not contain the studied pyrethroids, at least above the corresponding limits of detection.

Molecularly imprinted polymer as a novel solid‐phase microextraction coating for the selective enrichment of trace imidazolinones in rice,peanut, and soil

The development and application of an imazethapyr molecularly imprinted polymer‐based solid‐phase microextraction coating were investigated. A novel molecularly imprinted polymer coating with imazethapyr as template was firstly prepared by a one‐step in situ polymerization method, and demonstrated specific selectivity to imidazolinone herbicides in complicated samples. The structural characteristics and extraction performance of the imazethapyr molecularly imprinted polymer coating were studied.

A rapid, low‐cost, and simple method is proposed based on a miniaturized solid‐phase extraction named microextraction in packed syringe coupled with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry for the preconcentration and determination of some organophosphorous pesticides including diazinon, ethion, and malathion. For the first time, natural nanoperlite is used as a safe sorbent. Based on this technique, the analytes are adsorbed on the solid phase and then eluted by a desorbing solvent. The influence of some important parameters such as the solution pH, type, and volume of the organic desorption solvent on the microextraction efficiency of the selected pesticide technique is investigated. The proposed method showed a good linearity in the range of 1.0–35.0 μg/L for ethion and 0.4–30.0 μg/L for both diazinon and malathion. The limits of detection in the range of 0.1–0.38 μg/L were obtained using the selected ion‐monitoring mode of the mass spectrometer. The reproducibility of the method was found to be in the range of 2.8–8.9% for the studied pesticides. To evaluate the matrix effect, the developed method is also applied to the preconcentration and determination of the selected pesticides in real water samples.     

Solid‐phase microextraction Arrow for the volatile organic compounds in soy sauce

A novel solid‐phase microextraction Arrow was used to separate volatile organic compounds from soy sauce, and the results were verified by using gas chromatography with mass spectrometry. Solid‐phase microextraction Arrow was optimized in terms of three extraction conditions: type of fiber used (polydimethylsiloxane, polyacrylate, carbon wide range/polydimethylsiloxane, and divinylbenzene/polydimethylsiloxane), extraction temperature (40, 50, and 60°C), and extraction time (10, 30, and 60 min). The optimal solid‐phase microextraction Arrow conditions were as follows: type of fiber = polyacrylate, extraction time = 60 min, and extraction temperature = 50°C. Under the optimized conditions, the solid‐phase microextraction Arrow was compared with conventional solid‐phase microextraction to determine extraction yields. The solid‐phase microextraction Arrow yielded 6–42‐fold higher levels than in solid‐phase microextraction for all 21 volatile organic compounds detected in soy sauce due to the larger sorption phase volume. The findings of this study can provide practical guidelines for solid‐phase microextraction Arrow applications in food matrixes by providing analytical methods for volatile organic compounds.

The detection frequencies of tefuryltrione, a new type of 4‐hydroxyphenyl‐pyruvate dioxygenase inhibitor herbicide, are rarely reported, probably because of the paucity of analytical methods. Herein, an effective and sensitive analytical method has been developed to detect tefuryltrione in vegetables (tomato and cucumber), cereals (rice and corn), soil, and water by ultra high performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. Comparisons of the performances of dispersive solid‐phase extraction and multiplug filtration cleanup methods were carried out for tefuryltrione in complex matrices. Extraction solvents and purification sorbents were further optimized for dispersive solid‐phase extraction. Tefuryltrione was analyzed with electrospray ionization in the positive mode within 2.0 min. Mean recoveries for tefuryltrione were 75.4–108.9% with relative standard deviations less than 11.0% at three fortification levels (10, 100, 500 μg/kg) in the sample matrixes. Limits of quantification ranged from 0.70 to 5.12 μg/kg, and an excellent linearity (R ² ≥ 0.9902) was obtained for tefuryltrione at concentrations of 5–1000 μg/L. The results showed that the developed dispersive solid‐phase extraction method could serve as an effective, sensitive, and robust method for routine monitoring of tefuryltrione residue in plants and environmental samples.

The application of layered double hydroxide–Al₂O₃–polymer mixed‐matrix disks for solid‐phase extraction is reported for the first time. Al₂O₃ is embedded in a polymer matrix followed by an in situ metal‐exchange process to obtain a layered double hydroxide–Al₂O₃–polymer mixed‐matrix disk with excellent flow‐through properties. The extraction performance of the prepared disks is evaluated as a proof of concept for the automated extraction using sequential injection analysis of organic acids (p‐hydroxybenzoic acid, 3,4‐dihydroxybenzoic acid, gallic acid) following an anion‐exchange mechanism. After the solid‐phase extraction, phenolic acids were quantified by reversed‐phase high‐performance liquid chromatography with diode‐array detection using a core–shell silica–C18 stationary phase and isocratic elution (acetonitrile/0.5% acetic acid in pure water, 5:95, v/v). High sensitivity and reproducibility were obtained with limits of detection in the range of 0.12–0.25 μg/L (sample volume, 4 mL), and relative standard deviations between 2.9 and 3.4% (10 μg/L, n = 6). Enrichment factors of 34–39 were obtained. Layered double hydroxide–Al₂O₃–polymer mixed‐matrix disks had an average lifetime of 50 extractions. Analyte recoveries ranged from 93 to 96% for grape juice and nonalcoholic beer samples.

In this study, the viability of two membrane‐based microextraction techniques for the determination of endocrine disruptors by high‐performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection was evaluated: hollow fiber microporous membrane liquid–liquid extraction and hollow‐fiber‐supported dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction. The extraction efficiencies obtained for methylparaben, ethylparaben, bisphenol A, benzophenone, and 2‐ethylhexyl‐4‐methoxycinnamate from aqueous matrices obtained using both approaches were compared and showed that hollow fiber microporous membrane liquid–liquid extraction exhibited higher extraction efficiency for most of the compounds studied.

The optimal conditions for the method were supported liquid membrane with 1‐octanol for 10 s, sample pH 7, addition of 15% w/v of NaCl, extraction time of 30 min, and liquid desorption in 150 μL of acetonitrile/methanol (50:50 v/v) for 5 min. The linear correlation coefficients were higher than 0.9936. The limits of detection were 0.5–4.6 μg/L and the limits of quantification were 2–16 μg/L. The analyte relative recoveries were 67–116%, and the relative standard deviations were less than 15.5%.

The limit of detection and limit of quantification for the present method were 0.5–1.1 and 1.8–4.0 ng/g, respectively. The recoveries of the target analytes ranged from 80.2 to 103.2%. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the analysis of five triazole fungicides in traditional Chinese medicine samples, and satisfactory results were obtained.     

On‐line extraction and determination of two herbicides: Comparison between two modes of three‐phase hollow fiber microextraction

Two different modes of three‐phase hollow fiber liquid‐phase microextraction were studied for the extraction of two herbicides, bensulfuron‐methyl and linuron. In these two modes, the acceptor phases in the lumen of the hollow fiber were aqueous and organic solvents. The extraction and determination were performed using an automated hollow fiber microextraction instrument followed by high‐performance liquid chromatography. For both three‐phase hollow fiber liquid‐phase microextraction modes, the effect of the main parameters on the extraction efficiency were investigated and optimized by central composite design. Under optimal conditions, both modes showed good linearity and repeatability, but the three‐phase hollow fiber liquid‐phase microextraction based on two immiscible organic solvents has a better extraction efficiency and figures of merit. The calibration curves for three‐phase hollow fiber liquid‐phase microextraction with an organic acceptor phase were linear in the range of 0.3–200 and 0.1–150 μg/L and the limits of detection were 0.1 and 0.06 μg/L for bensulfuron‐methyl and linuron, respectively. For the conventional three‐phase hollow fiber liquid‐phase microextraction, the calibration curves were linear in the range of 3.0–250 and 15–400 μg/L and LODs were 1.0 and 5.0 μg/L for bensulfuron‐methyl and linuron, respectively. The real sample analysis was carried out by three‐phase hollow fiber liquid phase microextraction based on two immiscible organic solvents because of its more favorable characteristics.
