Determination of terpenoids in wines by solid phase extraction and gas chromatography

A new method for determination of volatile terpenoids in wine is proposed. An off-line solid phase extraction—gas chromatographic method has been used for the determination. The influence of several extraction variables was studied, including the solid phase employed (C-18 versus divinylbenzene-based), eluting solvent (n-pentane, dichloromethane, ethanol and methanol), volume of eluting solvent (1-4 ml) and drying time (0-20 min). Complete recovery of volatile terpenoids from several kinds of wines was obtained under the optimized conditions.     

Preparation and evaluation of hydrophilic C18 monolithic sorbents for enhanced polar compound retention in liquid chromatography and solid phase extraction

Hydrophilic C18 monolithic polymer sorbents were synthesized for use in solid phase extraction (SPE) and in capillary liquid chromatography (LC). The approach involved incorporating both hydrophobic and hydrophilic monomers into a monolithic material, by copolymerization of stearyl methacrylate (SMA), poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMEMA) and ethylene dimethacrylate (EDMA) in the presence of selected porogens, to produce translucent mesoporous monolithic materials in bulk (SPE) or white macroporous monoliths inside fused silica capillary columns (capillary LC). A capillary column containing one of the hydrophilic C18 monoliths (i.e. poly(SMA-co-PEGMEMA-co-EDMA) with 15% (w/w) PEGMEMA) demonstrated nearly 35% reduction in retention of polycyclic aromatic compounds and greater than 40% increase in retention of phenols compared to a hydrophobic C18 monolithic column. In addition, the hydrophilic monolith demonstrated significantly improved resolution of phenols. Similar monolithic materials prepared in bulk were ground and sieved to obtain 45-65 μm particles with desired rigidity for SPE. To achieve optimum extraction performance for phenols, several parameters, including sample pH and volume, and eluent type and volume, were investigated. Under optimized experimental conditions, the method demonstrated good sensitivity (1.6 ng/mL LOD) and linearity (R(2)>0.97 for 10-200 ng/mL). Again, incorporation of 15% (w/w) PEGMEMA in the monolith increased the extraction efficiency of phenols in water from approximately 20% to 67-92% compared to a hydrophobic C18 monolithic material. Increased wettability of the sorbent by the aqueous sample matrix and the presence of hydrogen-bonding interactions are responsible for the improved retention of polar compounds.

Initial bandwidth resulting from splitless and solid phase microextraction gas chromatographic injections

The initial width of the injected solute bands is a major determinant of the final measured peak width. While the individual processes contributing to this intial width have been observed and described qualitatively by many authors, little attention has been focused on their quantitative relationship. Using solid phase microextraction (SPME) and splitless injections of a hydrocarbon test mixutre the contributions to overall peak variance in SPME and splitless injections can be separated and quantitated. In SPME, it is seen that thermal focusing or rapid desorption must serve to provide focused bands. In splitless, thermal fucusing and solvent effects provide focusing. Variance contributions for each of these are calculated and shown.     

Determination of pesticides in water samples by solid phase extraction and gas chromatography tandem mass spectrometry

A multiresidue method for the determination of more than 80 pesticides in water has been developed and validated. The proposed method is based on SPE followed by GC coupled to MS/MS. Different variables affecting SPE procedure, such as cartridges, sample volume and solvents were studied, and mass spectrometric conditions were optimised in order to increase selectivity and sensitivity. Calibration curves were linear over the range of 0.03-0.5 microg/L. Recoveries were in the range of 70-110% and repeatability was below 20% for the lowest calibration point. LODs ranged from 0.001 to 0.025 microg/L and LOQs from 0.003 to 0.076 microg/L. Finally, the method was successfully applied to the analysis of water samples from southeast of Spain.

Determination of chlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in water by solid‐phase extraction coupled with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry

Given the potential risks of chlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, the analysis of their presence in water is very urgent. We have developed a novel procedure for determining chlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in water based on solid‐phase extraction coupled with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry. The extraction parameters of solid‐phase extraction were optimized in detail. Under the optimal conditions, the proposed method showed wide linear ranges (1.0–1000 ng/L) with correlation coefficients ranging from 0.9952 to 0.9998. The limits of detection and the limits of quantification were in the range of 0.015–0.591 and 0.045–1.502 ng/L, respectively. Recoveries ranged from 82.5 to 102.6% with relative standard deviations below 9.2%. The obtained method was applied successfully to the determination of chlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in real water samples. Most of the chlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons were detected and 1‐monochloropyrene was predominant in the studied water samples. This is the first report of chlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in water samples in China. The toxic equivalency quotients of chlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in the studied tap water were 9.95 ng the toxic equivalency quotient m^?3. 9,10‐Dichloroanthracene and 1‐monochloropyrene accounted for the majority of the total toxic equivalency quotients of chlorinated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in tap water.     

Trace enrichment and HPLC analysis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in environmental samples,using solid phase extraction in connection with UV/VIS diode-array and fluorescence detection

Summary Both the separation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH's) on tailor made HPLC phases, and their chromatographic enrichment and quantitative determination are of great interest. Because of the generally low concentrations of PAH's in the environment, and the low limiting values in German legislation for drinking water, methods for selective enrichment and sensitive detection are indispensable. On account of their relatively high amounts in soil, the determination of PAH's is valuable for the assessment of the potential danger to ground water by waste materials. These requirements can be fulfilled by used of solid phase extraction on enrichment columns, and fluorescence or UV/VIS diode array detection. For the detection of PAH's in the picogram range, the wavelengths for excitation and emission were time programmed over the chromatogram. With this feature, it is possible to detect all the individual compounds at the highest sensitivity, over the entire analysis.

Determination of chloroethenes in environmental biological samples using gas chromatography coupled with solid phase micro extraction

Summary An analytical method has been developed to determine the chloroethene series, tetrachloroethene (PCE), trichloroethene (TCE),cisdichloroethene (cis-DCE) andtransdichloroethene (trans-DCE) in environmental biotreatment studies using gas chromatography coupled with a solid phase micro extraction (SPME) technique. The volatile chlorinated compounds in aqueous solution can be analyzed directly without solvent extraction, purge and trap, or thermal heating. The calibration curves have demonstrated good linear relationships within 50.0 to 3000.0 g L^–1 concentration range. Detection limits are 18.0, 5.0, 25.0, and 42.0 g L^–1, for PCE, TCE,cis-DCE andtrans-DCE, respectively. Factors which affect the SPME process, such as sample adsorption time, thermal desorption time, and concentration of salt in the matrix, have also been evaluated.     

Organochlorine residue analysis of commercial milks by capillary gas chromatography

The determination of organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls in milks requires the use of efficient extraction methods. A rapid procedure has been developed, based on extraction of organochlorine residues from milk on to octadecylsilica solid phase extraction cartridges and elution with hexane. The addition of different organic solvents to the milk before solid phase extraction has been studied. The use of methanol to disrupt the fat globules enables almost complete recovery of the residues with minimum extraction of fatty substances. Recovery experiments were performed for eighteen compounds present at ppb levels in whole, two per cent, and skimmed milks. The average recoveries of the compounds from two per cent and skimmed milks were 73–84%; values for whole milk were lower. The residues were determined by gas chromatography using two kinds of capillary column (non-polar and semi-polar) and electron capture detection. The procedure shows low lipid carry over, and extraneous interferences are minimal. The method has been applied to the detection of organochlorine pesticides and nine individual polychlorinated biphenyls in commercial milks. The results obtained demonstrated the presence of very low levels of organochlorine residues in the commercial milks analyzed.

Simultaneous determination of flumequine and oxolinic acid in chicken tissues by solid phase extraction and capillary electrophoresis

This paper describes capillary electrophoresis (CE) methodology for simultaneous determination of oxolinic acid (OXO) and flumequine (FLU) in spiked chicken tissue using norfloxacin (NOR) as internal standard (IS), with diode array detection. The analytes were extracted using dichlorometane and NaOH and pre-concentrated by solid phase extraction (SPE).The recoveries obtained were 94 and 84% for oxolinic acid and flumequine , respectively. The detection and quantification limits achieved were 15 and 48 μg kg⁻¹ for oxolinic acid, respectively, and 10 and 30 μg kg⁻¹ for flumequine. The sensitivity of the method proposed allows the determination of these drugs at a residue level far below their maximum residue limit (MRL) established by the European Union (EU).     

Structure-type separation of diesel fuels by solid phase extraction and identification of the two- and three-ring aromatics by capillary GC-mass spectrometry

A simple and effective solid phase extraction (SPE) method using silica gel micro glass columns has been developed for the separation of diesel fuel into groups of aliphatic, and mono-, di- and polyaromatic hydrocarbons. It is based on a stepwise gradient of dichloromethane in n-pentane. The resulting fractions were analyzed by capillary gas chromatography with a flame ionization detector and coupled gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Commercially available standards, and retention indices and mass spectra were used for identification of individual aromatic compounds. The principal polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in diesel fuel are naphthalene, biphenyl, fluorene, phen-anthrene and their alkylated derivatives. Sulfur-containing PAHs are mainly represented by methyl-substituted dibenzo-thiophenes.     

Analysis of chemical warfare agents in water by solid phase extraction and two-channel capillary gas chromatography

Solid phase extraction with commercial C-18 cartridges has been applied to the analysis of some well known chemical warfare agents in water samples. Different sample pretreatment and cartridge conditioning procedures, and different extraction solvents were tested to study the optimum conditions for efficient extraction and recovery of the compounds of interest. The eluates were analyzed with a two-channel gas chromatograph equipped with an autosampler and a retention index monitoring system. The suitability of this technique for real samples is discussed: the rapid hydrolysis of many of the compounds studied and the poor recoveries of the polar degradation products are practical limitations of the method.     

Screening of domperidone in wastewater by high performance liquid chromatography and solid phase extraction methods

Domperidone is a dopamine D₂ receptor antogonist, which has been used as antiemetic agent in human beings. It has been found in wastewater released by some pharmaceutical industries leading to the contamination of surface and ground water. Therefore, a sensitive, inexpensive and reproducible HPLC-SPE method was developed for the analysis of domperidone in the wastewater. The column used was Waters symmetry C₁₈ (15 cm × 0.46 mm, 5 μm). The mobile phase used was phosphate buffer (50 mM, pH 3.5) acetonitrile (80:20, v/v) at the flow rate 2.0 mL/min. The detection was achieved by using UV mode at 230 nm. The retention, separation and resolution factors were 2.63, 3.00 and 3.20, respectively. The percentage recovery of domperidone from wastewater was 95.0%. Celiprolol was used as the internal standard to access the percentage extraction of domperidone from wastewater.
