Abstract: | The content of ten phenolic compounds present in four different biomass smoke materials: rock rose (Cistus monpelienisis), prickly pear (Opuntia ficus indica), pine needles (Pinus canariensis), and almonds skin (Prunus dulcis), have been evaluated. The sampling method mainly consisted of a trap alkaline solution to solubilize the phenols, and was optimized by an experimental design. Average sampling efficiencies of 78.1% and an average precision value of 10.6% (as relative standard deviation, RSD), were obtained for the selected group of phenols. The trapped phenolates were further analyzed by a headspace-single drop microextraction (HS-SDME) procedure, in combination with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV detection. The optimum variables for the HS-SDME method were: 1-decanol as extractant solvent, 3.5 μL of microdrop volume, 2 mL of sample volume, a pH value of 2, saturation of NaCl, an extraction temperature of 60 °C, and an extraction time of 25 min. The optimized HS-SDME method presented detection limits ranging from 0.35 to 5.8 μg mL−1, RSD values ranging from 0.7 to 7.4%, and an average relative recovery (RR) of 99.8% and an average standard deviation of 5.2. The average content of phenolic compounds in the biomass materials studied were 70, 161, 206 and 252 mg kg−1 of biomass for prickly pear, almonds skin, rock rose, and pine needles, respectively. The main components of the smokes were vanillin, phenol and methoxyphenols, in all smoking materials studied. |
