Simultaneous determination of nitroimidazole residues in honey samples by high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection

A rapid and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography (LC) method was developed for the simultaneous determination of metronidazole (MNZ), dimetridazole (DMZ), ronidazole (RNZ), tinidazole (TNZ), and 2-hydroxymethyl-1-methyl-5-nitroimidazole (HMMNI) in honey. After extraction with ethyl acetate and evaporation, the residue containing the nitroimidazoles was dissolved in ethyl acetate-hexane and subjected to solid-phase extraction cleanup by amine extraction columns. The effluent was evaporated to dryness, and residues were dissolved and determined by LC with an ultraviolet detector set at 315 nm. The limits of detection were 1.0-2.0 ng/g for MNZ, DMZ, RNZ, TNZ, and HMMNI in honey. Average recoveries ranged from 71.5-101.4% in honey fortified at 10, 20, 50, and 100 ng/g. The method was validated for the analysis of real honey samples.

Development and evaluation of microwave‐assisted and ultrasound‐assisted methods based on a quick,easy, cheap,effective, rugged,and safe sample preparation approach for the determination of bisphenol analogues in serum and sediments

Microwave‐ and ultrasound‐assisted methods based on a quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe sample preparation approach followed by high‐performance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry were developed for the simultaneous determination of eight bisphenol analogues in serum and sediment. The developed methods provided satisfactory extraction efficiency for the energy provided by microwaves and ultrasound. Compositions of commercial sorbents (primary secondary amine, MgSO₄, octadecyl‐modified silica, and graphitized carbon black) were evaluated. The ultrasound‐assisted method was suited for serum using primary secondary amine, MgSO₄, and octadecyl‐modified silica as sorbents and a mixture of hexane and ethyl acetate as extraction solvent. The microwave‐assisted method worked better for sediment with tetrahydrofuran and methanol as solvents and primary secondary amine, MgSO₄, octadecyl‐modified silica, and graphitized carbon black as sorbents. Other experimental parameters, such as extraction temperature and time, were also optimized. The inter‐ and intraday relative standard deviations ranged from 2.7 to 5.5%. The limits of detection were between 0.1 and 1.0 ng/mL for serum and between 0.1 and 0.5 ng/g dry weight for sediment. The proposed methods were successfully applied to seven sediment and 20 human serum samples. The results showed that the developed methods were practical for the analysis and biomonitoring of bisphenols in sera and sediment.     

Application of sugaring-out extraction for the determination of sulfonamides in honey by high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection

A simple sugaring-out assisted liquid-liquid extraction method combined with high-performance liquid-chromatography with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FL) was developed for the extraction and determination of sulfonamides in honey.

An efficient sample extraction and clean‐up method was developed for simultaneous determination of five amide herbicides (alachlor, acetochlor, propisochlor, metazachlor, and butachlor) in fish samples. The protocol consisted of ultrasound‐assisted solvent extraction and solid‐phase extraction clean‐up. In detail, aliquots of homogenized fish flesh were thoroughly mixed with 20 mL of n‐hexane and then extracted with ultrasonication for 40 min. Each sample was centrifuged and the supernatant was collected for the subsequent clean‐up. For the sample preparation, the above supernatant was processed with a C₁₈ column with 3 mL of dichloromethane/n‐hexane (1:1, v/v) as the eluant. Then the samples were analyzed by gas chromatography with electron capture detection. The correlation coefficients of the five calibration curves were 0.9976–0.9998 (n = 3). The limits of detection (S/N = 3, n = 11) and limits of quantification (S/N = 10, n = 11) were 0.19–0.42 and 0.63–1.39 μg/kg, respectively. The recoveries of this method were 71.2–92.6% with good precision (<4.7% relative standard deviations, n = 6). The developed method was successfully applied to monitor the five amide herbicides in fish samples collected from different cities.

The feasibility of developing a quick, easy, efficient procedure for the simultaneous determination of organochlorinated pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls in aquatic samples using gas chromatography with electron capture detection based on solid‐phase extraction was investigated. The extraction solvent (n‐hexane/acetone, cyclohexane/ethyl acetate, n‐hexane/dichloromethane, n‐hexane) for ultrasound‐assisted solid–liquid extraction and solid‐phase extraction columns (florisil, neutral alumina, acidic alumina, aminopropyl trimethoxy silane, propyl ethylenediamine, aminopropyl trimethoxy silane/propyl ethylenediamine, graphitized carbon black and silica) for cleanup procedure were optimized. The gas chromatography with electron capture detection method was validated in terms of linearity, sensitivity, reproducibility, and recovery. Mean recoveries ranged from 75 to 115% with relative standard deviations <13%. Quantification limits were 0.20–0.40 ng/g for organochlorinated pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls. The satisfactory data demonstrated the good reproducibility of the method with relative standard deviations lower than 13%. In comparison to other related methods, this method requires less time and solvent and allows for rapid isolation of the target analytes with high selectivity. This method therefore allows for the screening of numerous samples and can also be used for routine analyses.

Matrix Solid Phase Dispersion‐Accelerated Solvent Extraction for Determination of OCP Residues in Fish Muscles

A rapid, sensitive and accurate matrix solid phase dispersion‐accelerated solvent extraction (MSPD‐ASE) method for selective determination of sixteen organochlorine pesticide (OCP) residues in fish samples has been developed and validated. 2 g fresh fish muscle was dispersed with 10 g anhydrous sodium sulfate and 2 g acid alumina thoroughly, and loaded into the stainless‐steel extraction cell containing 6 g of acid alumina and 10 g anhydrous sodium sulfate. The temperature 60 °C and two extraction cycles of 5 min gave adequate extraction efficiency using DCM‐hexane (3:7, v/v) mixture as solvent. Not only the lipids, but also other co‐extracts, which peaks mostly located in the forepart of chromatograms and maybe interfere the identification or quantitation of analytes, were eliminated exhaustively, while analytes were extracted selectively. Sixteen OCPs were identified by retention time of standards and quantified using mirex as internal standards. These detected OCPs were confirmed by GC‐MS in real samples. The performance of proposed method was evaluated and validated: the detection limits were 0.008‐0.05 ng g^‐1, relative standard deviations were 1.9‐5.0%, and recoveries were 91.0‐104.1% spiked at 10 ng g^‐1 level. The accuracy and precision of proposed method were equal to or better than that of traditional Soxhlet extraction method.

Good linearity was obtained between 0.025 and 10,000 µg/mL for plasma and between 0.025–200,000 µg/g for tissue samples (r > 0.999). The limit of detection was 6 ng/mL in plasma, 8 ng/g in heart and 12.5 ng/g in other tissues. The limit of quantitation was 25 ng/mL in plasma and heart, 125 ng/g in other tissues. The intra‐ and inter‐day assays of precision and accuracy for all bio‐samples ranged from 1.38 to 9.60% and from 83.6 to 114.5%, respectively. The extraction recoveries ranged from 70.1 to 109.5%. Samples were stable during three freeze–thaw cycles or stored in a freezer at ?20 °C for 30 days. The assay method was successfully applied to a study of the pharmacokinetics and tissue distribution of novel PTX lung targeting liposomes. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Comparison of palladium-magnesium nitrate and ammonium dihydrogenphosphate modifiers for cadmium determination in honey samples by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry

The occurrence of certain trace elements, such as cadmium, in honey bee can be considered as an indication of environmental pollution. In the present work, two methods for Cd determination in honey by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry, using palladium-magnesium nitrate and ammonium dihydrogenphosphate as chemical modifiers, have been developed. In none of these cases honey samples required pretreatment. Honey was diluted in water (20% w/v), and hydrogen peroxide, nitric acid, and Triton X-100 were added to minimize the matrix effect. For the first method, 21.6 μg of palladium and 4.5 μg of magnesium were added as chemical modifier; for the second method, 60 μg of ammonium dihydrogenphosphate were employed. The limits of detection obtained were 0.32 ng g⁻¹ for ammonium dihydrogenphosphate method and 0.54 ng g⁻¹ for palladium-magnesium nitrate method. The characteristic mass was 0.7 and 1.0 pg for ammonium dihydrogenphosphate and palladium-magnesium nitrate methods, respectively. The relative standard deviation (<10%) and the analytical recovery (98-105%) were comparable in both methods. The optimised methods were applied to the determination of the cadmium content in unpolluted Galician honey samples. Cd has been detected the analysed samples in the range (n.d.—4.3 ng g⁻¹).

A novel and rapid solventless microwave‐assisted extraction coupled with low‐density solvent‐based in‐tube ultrasound‐assisted emulsification microextraction has been developed for the efficient determination of nine organophosphorus pesticides in soils by GC analysis with microelectron capture detection. A specially designed, homemade glass tube inbuilt with a scaled capillary tube was used as an extraction device to collect and measure the separated extractant phase easily.

Detections were linear in the range of 0.25–10 ng/g with detection limits between 0.04 and 0.13 ng/g for all target analytes. The applicability of the method to real samples was assessed on agricultural contaminated soils and the recoveries ranged between 91.4 and 101.3%. Compared to other methods, the present method was shown to be highly competitive in terms of sensitivity, cost, eco‐friendly nature, and analysis speed.

DSD‐FWAs in prepared samples were ultrasonically extracted with acetonitrile/water/triethylamine (40:60:1, v/v/v), separated on the C₁₈ column with the mobile phase containing tetrabutylammonium bromide, and then detected by a fluorescence detector. The limits of detection were 0.12–0.24 mg/kg, and the calibration curves showed the linear correlation (R² ≥ 0.9994) within the range of 8.0–100 ng/mL, which was equivalent to the range of 0.80–10 mg/kg in the sample. The average recoveries and the RSDs were 81–106% and 2–9% at two fortification levels (1.0 and 5.0 mg/kg) in paper bowls, respectively. The successful determination of 11 DSD‐FWAs in food‐contact paper and board obtained from local markets indicated that the newly developed method was rapid, accurate, and highly selective.

The performance of the proposed method was compared with traditional liquid–liquid extraction and solid‐phase extraction clean‐up methods, and comparable efficiencies were obtained. It is concluded that this method can be successfully applied for the determination of polychlorinated biphenyls in different water samples.
