顶空固相微萃取-气相色谱-质谱联用测定饮用水中的2-甲基异莰醇和土臭素

2-甲基异莰醇(2-methylisoborneol, 2-MIB)和土臭素(geosmin, GSM)在水源水中大量分泌排放是造成饮用水土霉异味突发事件、引发居民用水恐慌的重用因素之一。使用顶空固相微萃取(HS-SPME)与气相色谱-质谱联用技术(GC-MS)建立了水库水、水库附近土壤、居民自来水中2-MIB和GSM的测定方法。结合正交分析优化了加盐量、萃取温度、萃取时间条件,在电子轰击(EI)-选择离子扫描(SIM)模式下进行了目标物的定性定量分析。结果表明:在5~1000 ng/L范围内,2-MIB和GSM的色谱峰面积与其质量浓度的线性关系良好(r²≥0.998), 2-MIB与GSM的检出限分别为0.72 ng/L和0.34 ng/L,定量限分别为2.40 ng/L和1.13 ng/L;目标物加标水平为10~600 ng/L时,平均回收率为93.6%~107.7%,相对标准偏差(RSD)≤6.1%(n=6)。基于上述方法,对辽宁省某地区水库水、水库附近土壤、居民自来水中的目标物进行检测,结果表明:水库水目标物质量浓度范围为3.0~3.6 ng/L,水库附近土壤中提取的2-MIB为8.1 ng/L、提取的GSM为17.8 ng/L,居民自来水中的目标物未检出。该方法操作简便、准确可靠,灵敏度高,无需有机溶剂,适合于饮用水中2-MIB和GSM的分析检测。

Determination of 2-methylisoborneol and geosmin in drinking water using headspace solid phase micro-extraction coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

The odorous compounds of 2-methylisoborneol (2-MIB) and geosmin (GSM) heavily produced and released in water source are one of the most important factors leading to off-flavor emergencies and resident water consumption panic in drinking water. A headspace solid phase micro-extraction (HS-SPME) combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method was established for the simultaneous determination of these two trace earthy and musty compounds in reservoir water, reservoir soil and tap water. The conditions of HS-SPME, such as salt amount, extraction time and extraction temperature, were optimized based on orthogonal analysis. The qualitative and quantitative analyses of 2-MIB and GSM were carried out in the electron impact (EI)-selective ion scanning mode. The results showed that the linear relationship between peak area and concentration of 2-MIB and GSM was good enough (r²≥0.998) from 5 to 1000 ng/L, the limits of detection were 0.72 ng/L for 2-MIB, 0.34 ng/L for GSM and the limits of quantification were 2.40 ng/L for 2-MIB, 1.13 ng/L for GSM. When the target samples spiked in the range of 10-600 ng/L, the average recoveries of the target compounds were 93.6%-107.7% (RSD≤6.1%, n=6). Based on the above method, the target compounds in reservoir water, reservoir soil and tap water in a certain region of Liaoning Province were analyzed. The results showed that the two target odors in reservoir water were 3.0-3.6 ng/L. As for the extract of the soil around the reservoir, 2-MIB was 8.1 ng/L and GSM was 17.8 ng/L. The odorous substances were not detected in the tap water. This method is simple, accurate, reliable, highly sensitive and no need of organic solvents. And it is suitable for the detection of 2-MIB and GSM in drinking water.
