Dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction followed by high-performance liquid chromatography as an efficient and sensitive technique for simultaneous determination of chloramphenicol and thiamphenicol in honey

Dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography-variable wavelength detector (HPLC-VWD) was developed for extraction and determination of chloramphenicol (CAP) and thiamphenicol (THA) in honey. In this extraction method, 1.0 mL of acetonitrile (as dispersive solvent) containing 30 μL 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane (as extraction solution) was rapidly injected by syringe into a 5.00-mL water sample containing the analytes, thereby forming a cloudy solution. After extraction, phase separation was performed by centrifugation and the enriched analytes in the sedimented phase were determined by HPLC-VWD. Some important parameters, such as the nature and volume of extraction solvent and dispersive solvent, extraction time, sample solution pH, sample volume and salt effect were investigated and optimized. Under the optimum extraction condition, the method yields a linear calibration curve in the concentration range from 3 to 2000 μg kg⁻¹ for target analytes. The enrichment factors for CAP and THA were 68.2 and 87.9, and the limits of detection (S/N = 3) were 0.6 and 0.1 μg kg⁻¹, respectively. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) for the extraction of 10 μg kg⁻¹ of CAP and THA were 4.3% and 6.2% (n = 6). The main advantages of DLLME-HPLC method are simplicity of operation, rapidity, low cost, high enrichment factor, high recovery, good repeatability and extraction solvent volume at microliter level. Honey samples were successfully analyzed using the proposed method.     

Analytical methods applied to the determination of pesticide residues in foods of animal origin. A review of the past two decades

Pesticides are widely used in agriculture and can be transferred to animals in a number of ways. Consequently, reliable analytical methods are required to determine pesticide residues in foods of animal origin. The present review covers published methods and research articles (1990-2010) in which pesticide residues have been extracted from meat and meat products, milk and dairy products, fish and seafood, and eggs, then cleaned up, and isolated by chromatographic techniques to be identified and quantified by various detection methods. Recovery rates, quantification limits, the matrix effect and related parameters have all been considered. Lastly, future developments in this field are outlined.

基于硒化锌薄膜法的食源性致病菌原位红外光谱检测

食源性致病菌是引发和威胁公众健康的主要因素之一。由于食源性致病菌种类繁多,常规检测方法复杂耗时要求高,因此迫切需要一种更加快速精确的致病菌检测技术。在传统红外光谱检测致病菌的流程中,如经典的溴化钾压片法,除了压片本身的操作之外通常还需对样品进行冷冻干燥（约需2 d）等耗时前处理过程,因而不利于高通量快速检测。本研究利用硒化锌薄膜法,在硒化锌窗片上直接滴加菌液、低温（48 ℃）烘干后进行原位检测,无需漫长的冻干处理,整个检测过程在50 min之内。同时,检测所需样品量少（10 μL）无需研磨等物理破坏性的制样过程,避免了常规溴化钾压片法中研磨颗粒粗细、制片厚薄误差及易碎片、吸潮等的不利影响。四种常见食源性致病菌（大肠杆菌DH5α;沙门氏菌CMCC 50041;霍乱弧菌SH04;金黄色葡萄球菌SH10）的硒化锌薄膜法与溴化钾压片法红外谱图对比分析表明：在相同的峰值检测阈值下（透过率大于0.05%）,本研究所采用的方法获得的二阶导数图谱在900～1 500 cm-1范围内可被识别的特征峰个数比溴化钾压片法明显增多（硒化锌薄膜法共计81个,溴化钾压片法共计58个）,特征峰在多个位置强度显著增加(1 119,1 085和915 cm-1等),且可将溴化钾压片法中较宽的单峰或不明显的双峰显示为较明显的双峰（大肠杆菌DH5α：1 441,1 391和1 219 cm-1等; 沙门氏菌CMCC 50041：1 490,1 219和1 025 cm-1;霍乱弧菌SH04：1 441和1 219 cm-1;金黄色葡萄球菌SH10：1 491,1 397和1 219 cm-1）,说明硒化锌薄膜法可以提高图谱分辨率及信噪比。基于硒化锌薄膜法的原位红外光谱法对常见食源性致病菌整体快速高通量检测将具有巨大的应用前景。     

Vacuum-assisted headspace solid phase microextraction: Improved extraction of semivolatiles by non-equilibrium headspace sampling under reduced pressure conditions

A new headspace solid-phase microextraction (HSSPME) procedure carried out under vacuum conditions is proposed here where sample volumes commonly used in HSSPME (9 mL) were introduced into pre-evacuated commercially available large sampling chambers (1000 mL) prior to HSSPME sampling. The proposed procedure ensured reproducible conditions for HSSPME and excluded the possibility of analyte losses. A theoretical model was formulated demonstrating for the first time the pressure dependence of HSSPME sampling procedure under non equilibrium conditions. Although reduced pressure conditions during HSSPME sampling are not expected to increase the amount of analytes extracted at equilibrium, they greatly increase extraction rates compared to HSSPME under atmospheric pressure due to the enhancement of evaporation rates in the presence of an air-evacuated headspace. The effect is larger for semivolatiles whose evaporation rates are controlled by mass transfer resistance in the thin gas film adjacent to the sample/headspace interface. Parameters that affect HSSPME extraction were investigated under both vacuum and atmospheric conditions and the experimental data obtained were used to discuss and verify the theory. The use of an excessively large headspace volume was also considered. The applicability of Vac-HSSPME was assessed using chlorophenols as model compounds yielding linearities better than 0.9915 and detection limits in the low-ppt level. The repeatability was found to vary from 3.1 to 8.6%.     

Deposition and electrostatic removal of gaseous organic contaminants on substrate surfaces

The adhesion behavior of di-n-butyl phthalate (DBP) onto different substrates (quartz, glass, and silicon) used as wafer surfaces was studied by using an in situ UV spectrophotometric technique. The results from the closed cell experiments revealed that greatest extent of DBP adhesion occurred on the quartz chip (0.154 μg cm⁻²), followed in the order by the glass (0.054 μg cm⁻²) and silicon (0.039 μg cm⁻²). By means of the in situ spectrophotometric observation, application of an electrical field at 290 V cm⁻¹ in the cell proved to be effective in inducing charging of DBP aerosols, which were consequently attracted towards the electrodes. This method can be applied to wafer storage and transport equipments to prevent wafer contamination from material outgassing representative by DBP.     

Disposable pipette tips extraction: Fundamentals,applications and state of the art

Disposable pipette tips extraction consists of a solid‐phase extraction in which the sorbent is poorly dispersed in a pipette tip, which allows a quick and dynamic contact between the aspirated analyte from the sample and the solid phase. It is a technique used particularly in food and forensic analysis, since it requires a small amount of sample and solvent. This article highlights the principles, advantages and disadvantages of the disposable pipette tips extraction method and reviews recent applications.
