Clean-up techniques in the pressurized liquid extraction of abiotic environmental solid samples

Pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) uses high pressure and temperature to perform exhaustive extraction and is one of the extraction techniques widely used for determining contaminants in environmental solid samples. However, under these conditions, compounds from the matrix are also extracted. Therefore, clean-up strategies must be often applied to remove interferences and avoid matrix effect in the subsequent determination. There are different clean-up strategies that can be used in PLE, some of which are applied during the extraction procedure and some are applied to the PLE extract. The aim of this review is to critically discuss these clean-up techniques used in PLE of abiotic environmental solid samples in the last 10 years. We provide the readers with information about the weaknesses and strengths of each strategy so they can select the most suitable clean-up technique for a specific environmental analytical problem.     

Determination of ivermectin and transformation products in environmental waters using hollow fibre-supported liquid membrane extraction and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry

A simple and easy-to-use extraction method for aqueous samples based on hollow fibre-supported liquid membrane (HF-SLM) followed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was developed to determine ivermectin and transformation products, the monosaccharide (TP1) and the aglycon of ivermectin (TP2). The proposed method attained enrichment factors up to 80, after optimising parameters, such as fibre length, organic solvent, stirring speed, salt level, pH in samples/fibre, extraction time and fibre emptying technique. Method validation with tap and lake water samples provided good linearity and detection limits of 0.2, 1.6 and 0.9 microg/l for ivermectin, TP1 and TP2 in lake water with RSD below 15%.     

Solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry for the determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in environmental solid matrices

A solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry method for determining polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in environmental solid matrices is developed. Investigated matrices include seaweed (Undaria pinnatifida and Himanthalia elongata), humic substances (isolated from a wetland out-flow and purchased from Aldrich), and soil. Optimal conditions for a good SPME efficiency of 16 hydrocarbon compounds are obtained using a 100- micro m polydimethylsiloxane fiber directly immersed in aqueous carrier medium. The method is remarkable for presenting short extraction times and considerably high sensitivities. The SPME results obtained by using internal calibration give the total analyte concentration based on the identical partitioning behavior of native and spiked pollutants. The detection limits range from 0.001 to 0.1 mg of PAH per kilogram of dry matrix. SPME external calibration provides information regarding freely dissolved analytes. The detection limits range from 0.001 to 0.05 micro g of PAH per liter of carrier medium. The SPME with external calibration procedure can be applied to measure free concentrations of a target compound spiked into a carrier medium and onto a matrix. Based on a comparison of results obtained for the two samples, the partitioning of the target analyte between the matrix and the carrier medium is calculated.     

Determination of bisphenol A in milk by solid phase extraction and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry

A simple and reliable analytical method based on solid phase extraction (SPE) and liquid chromatography coupled with electrospray ionization mass spectrometry was developed for the determination of bisphenol A (BPA) in milk. The effects of the experimental parameters of the LC-ESI-MS system (mobile phase and additives, flow rate, temperature of the ionization source, cone voltage and capillary potential) on the obtained signal were assessed and the parameters were optimized to provide maximum sensitivity and detectability. In addition, the performance of three commercial SPE sorbents (C18, PS-DVB and hydroxylated PS-DVB) was evaluated using spiked water and milk, diluted with a mixture of water-methanol (8:1). By using C18 cartridges and BPA-d(16) as internal standard, the mean relative recoveries at three fortification levels ranged between 97 and 104% and the corresponding inter-day precision (RSD%) was below 6% for 50 and 500 ng/g and below 20% for 5 ng/g fortification levels. It is shown that the ion suppression during ESI, the losses from the sample preparation procedure and the inter-day instability of LC-ESI-MS were overcome by the use of the deuterated internal standard. The concentration of BPA found in commercial canned milk samples ranged from <1.7 to 15.2 ng/g.     

Some aspects of the analysis of environmental pollutants in sediments using pressurized liquid extraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

Pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) is a fully automated extraction technique for isolation of analytes from solid samples. This technique combines elevated temperature and pressure of liquid solvents during the extraction process. In this study the efficiency of a PLE system for the isolation of wide range of analytes (polychlorinated biphenyls and organic pesticides from sediments under different pressure and temperature conditions) was investigated. The temperature 100 degrees C and pressure 6.9 MPa (1000 p.s.i.; 1 p.s.i.=6894.76 Pa) were found to be the most efficient from all investigated conditions. Using these PLE parameters, the average recoveries for most of the analytes were in the range 80-105% and relative standard deviation was usually under 15%. The conditions of determination of analytes in the extracts using GC-MS were established. Some problems occurring during the analysis of real samples, such as coelution of analytes, were established. The influence of internal standard addition on the final analysis results was determined.     

An objective comparison of pre-processing methods for enhancement of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry data

Four data pre-processing methods have been applied with different settings to data sets obtained from the analysis of a pharmaceutical drug and its degradation products by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). The methods compared were the frequently used component detection algorithm (CODA) and three kinds of digital filters--matched filtration (MF), Gaussian second derivative (GSD) and Savitzky-Golay. The aim was to evaluate the performance and robustness of these methods for extracted ion chromatogram (XIC), total ion chromatogram (TIC) and base peak chromatogram (BPC) in the presence of different types of noise. In accordance with theory, the best improvements in signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of the XICs were obtained with MF under the ideal case with random white noise. However, when highly coloured noise was present, it was found that no improvements in XIC S/N could be obtained with any of the pre-processing methods studied. GSD and CODA did, however, improve the S/N for both TIC and BPC. GSD and CODA also significantly reduced the background in the spectral domain, thereby facilitating the interpretation of the mass spectra. Another advantage associated with CODA and to some extent also with GSD is their data reduction ability.     

Development of generic liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry methods using experimental design

Standard approaches to development of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) methods, either ion-pairing or reversed-phase liquid chromatography, have been through trial and error or intentional variation of experimental factors. These approaches to method optimization fail to take into account interactions between experimental factors and therefore the results may not be optimal for the combination of experimental factors. Another approach to optimization is through the use of chemometrics. Chemometric approaches can be more efficient than trial and error or intentional variation because chemometrics make use of multivariate designs; experimental factors are varied simultaneously at the various levels. Therefore chemometrics can take into account interactions between factors. The goal of this study was to develop a generic ion-pair LC-MS method for the analysis of acidic compounds using a chemometric approach called design of experiments (DOE). Four acidic compounds which cover three classes of acidic functional groups: 1-naphthyl phosphate (1), 1-naphthalenesulfonic acid (2), 2-naphthalenesulfonic acid (3), and (1-naphthoxy)acetic acid (4) were used as model compounds to develop the generic method. This study illustrates that LC-MS conditions can be optimized efficiently with minimal amount of experimentation using a chemometric approach to experimental design.

Confirmatory and quantitative analysis using experimental design for the extraction and liquid chromatography-UV, liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry/mass spectrometry determination of quinolones in turkey muscle

The aim of this work is to established methods for determination of quinolones (ciprofloxacin, danofloxacin, enrofloxacin, difloxacin and flumequine), regulated by European Union, and sarafloxacin in turkey muscle. An experimental design has been applied for the optimization of the factors that influence the extraction of quinolones from turkey muscle in order to determine the experimental conditions for their extraction with high recoveries. Liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (LC-UV), liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) and liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) have been used for the simultaneous quantification of quinolones antibiotics in turkey muscle. The proposed methods have been validated according to the Food Drugs Administration guideline and presents the limit of quantification below the maximum residue limits established by the European Union for quinolones in turkey muscle. The methods developed have been applied to quantification of enrofloxacin and its main metabolite ciprofloxacin in samples of turkey muscle obtained from animals treated with enrofloxacin.     

Extraction and clean-up strategies for the analysis of poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances in environmental and human matrices

The rapidly expanding field of per- and polyfluorinated alkyl substances (PFASs) research has resulted in a wide range of analytical methodologies to determine the human and environmental exposure to PFASs. This paper reviews the currently applied techniques for sample pre-treatment, extraction and clean-up for the analysis of ionic and non-ionic PFASs in human and environmental matrices. Solid phase extraction (SPE) is the method of choice for liquid samples (e.g. water, blood, serum, plasma), and may be automated in an on-line set-up for (large volume) sample enrichment and sample clean-up. Prior to SPE, sample pre-treatment (filtration or centrifugation for water or protein precipitation for blood) may be required. Liquid-liquid extraction can also be used for liquid samples (and does not require above mentioned sample pretreatment). Solid-liquid extraction is the commonly applied method for solid matrices (biota, sludge, soil, sediment), but automation options are limited due to contamination from polytetrafluorethylene tubings and parts applied in extraction equipment. Air is generally preconcentrated on XAD-resins sandwiched between polyurethane foam plugs. Clean-up of crude extracts is essential for destruction and removal of lipids and other co-extractives that may interfere in the instrumental determination. SPE, (fluorous) silica column chromatography, dispersive graphitized carbon and destructive methods such as sulphuric acid or KOH treatment can be applied for clean-up of extracts. Care should be taken to avoid contamination (e.g. from sample bottles, filters, equipment) and losses of PFASs (e.g. adsorption, volatilization) during sampling, extraction and clean-up. Storage at -20 degrees C is generally appropriate for conservation of samples.     

Microwave-assisted solvent extraction of solid matrices and subsequent detection of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

Concentrations of pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) in natural solids remain largely unknown. Contributing to this, is a lack of methods permitting the simultaneous detection of the diverse, low-level contaminants present in these complex matrices. We have developed a microwave-assisted solvent extraction (MASE)-based method targeting seven diverse PPCPs (caffeine, 17β-estradiol, ibuprofen, ketoprofen, musk ketone, naproxen, and triclosan) and a molecular marker for fecal waste (epicoprostanol). The method consisted of optimizing the following variables: derivatization of the polar target analytes, silica gel open column clean-up, and gas chromatographic-mass spectrometric (GC-MS) analysis of sample extracts for analysis and detection of the compounds noted above. Testing of the method on spiked soil allowed for 89.6 ± 2.89% recovery of three target compounds and 25.0 ± 1.93% recovery of five of the compounds. Although the latter recoveries were low, the precision across all recoveries was high, suggesting good reproducibility in application of the method. Furthermore, we suspect that matrix effects are likely responsible for the lower recoveries. Techniques with the exclusive incorporation of organic solvents were found inapplicable in the study of a pharmaceutical salt, diphenhydramine HCl. Application of the developed method to sediment collected directly downstream of the effluent pipe of a wastewater treatment plant allowed detection of ibuprofen, naproxen, ketoprofen, and epicoprostanol at ng-μg per gram dry weight concentrations. The observation of acidic pharmaceuticals, previously believed to exhibit insignificant sorption to solid matrices, in the tested sediment samples, coupled with application of biosolids for agricultural purposes, demonstrates the need for expanded investigation of PPCP contamination of natural solid matrices.

Optimization of pressurized liquid extraction and purification conditions for gas chromatography-mass spectrometry determination of UV filters in sludge

This work presents an effective sample preparation method for the determination of eight UV filter compounds, belonging to different chemical classes, in freeze-dried sludge samples. Pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) were selected as extraction and determination techniques, respectively. Normal-phase, reversed-phase and anionic exchange materials were tested as clean-up sorbents to reduce the complexity of raw PLE extracts. Under final working conditions, graphitized carbon (0.5 g) was used as in-cell purification sorbent for the retention of co-extracted pigments. Thereafter, a solid-phase extraction cartridge, containing 0.5 g of primary secondary amine (PSA) bonded silica, was employed for off-line removal of other interferences, mainly fatty acids, overlapping the chromatographic peaks of some UV filters. Extractions were performed with a n-hexane:dichloromethane (80:20, v:v) solution at 75°C, using a single extraction cycle of 5 min at 1500 psi. Flush volume and purge time were set at 100% and 2 min, respectively. Considering 0.5 g of sample and 1 mL as the final volume of the purified extract, the developed method provided recoveries between 73% and 112%, with limits of quantification (LOQs) from 17 to 61 ng g(-1) and a linear response range up to 10 μg g(-1). Total solvent consumption remained around 30 mL per sample. The analysis of non-spiked samples confirmed the sorption of significant amounts of several UV filters in sludge with average concentrations above 0.6 μg g(-1) for 3-(4-methylbenzylidene) camphor (4-MBC), 2-ethylhexyl-p-methoxycinnamate (EHMC) and octocrylene (OC).     

Determination of chloropropanols in foods by one-step extraction and derivatization using pressurized liquid extraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

3-Chloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) and 1,3-dichloro-2-propanol (1,3-DCP) were determined for the first time in bakery foods using pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) combined with in situ derivatization and GC-MS analysis. This one-step protocol uses N,O-bis(trimethylsilyl)trifluoroacetamide (BSTFA) as silylation reagent. Initially, screening experimental design was applied to evaluate the effects of the variables potentially affecting the extraction process, namely extraction time (min) and temperature (°C), number of cycles, dispersant reagent (diatomaceous earth in powder form and as particulate matter with high pore volume Extrelut NT) and percent of flush ethyl acetate volume (%). To reduce the time of analysis and improve the sensitivity, derivatization of the compounds was performed in the cell extraction. Conditions, such as the volume of BSTFA, temperature and time for the in situ derivatization of analytes using PLE, were optimized by a screening design followed to a Doehlert response surface design. The effect of the in-cell dispersants/adsorbents with diatomaceous earth, Florisil and sodium sulfate anhydrous was investigated using a Box-Behnken design. Using the final best conditions, 1 g of sample dispersed with 0.1 g of sodium sulfate anhydrous and 2.5 g diatomaceous earth was extracted with ethyl acetate. 1 g of Florisil, as clean-up adsorbent, and 70 μL of BSTFA were used for 3 min at 70°C. Under the optimum conditions, the calibration curves showed good linearity (R(2)>0.9994) and precision (relative standard deviation, RSD≤2.4%) within the tested ranges. The limits of quantification for 1,3-DCP and 3-MCDP, 1.6 and 1.7 μg kg(-1), respectively, are far below the established limits in the European and American legislations. The accuracy, precision, linearity, and limits of quantification provided make this analytical method suitable for routine control. The method was applied to the analysis of several toasted bread, snacks, cookies and cereal samples, none of which contained chloropropanols at concentrations above the legislation levels.

Analytical methods for the determination of fluoroquinolones in solid environmental matrices

We present a critical review of the analytical procedures proposed in the past decade for the determination of fluoroquinolones (FQs) by chromatographic methods in solid environmental matrices. We emphasize the overall analytical procedure, from sampling to final detection. We devote special attention to sample preparation, highlighting the problems involved in the analysis of real complex matrices, mainly soil, sediment, manure and sludge. We compare the different extraction techniques in terms of efficiency, time taken and environmental impact, pointing out advantages and drawbacks. We provide an overview on the role of photochemistry in the degradation of FQs in soils and sediments, and we underline the central position of analytical chemistry in environmental monitoring because FQs are emerging pollutants.
