Crosslinked polymeric ionic liquid (PIL)-based sorbent coatings were employed in the extraction of 21 polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from ocean water and bovine milk using solid-phase microextraction (SPME). The extraction temperature, time, and concentration of sodium chloride added to the matrix were optimized in order to determine the best extraction conditions for the extraction of PCBs. The...
A review of sample preparation and analytical techniques currently used to analyze pesticides in nutraceutical products is shown. Different sample treatments are commented, and the QuEChERS method is the most used (quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged and safe). For the chromatographic determination, gas chromatography (GC) and liquid chromatography (LC) are evaluated. Different detection modes are...
Two sorbents containing ZrO 2 (Z-Sep and Z-Sep+) were tested as a d-SPE clean-up in combination with the QuEChERS and ethyl acetate multiresidue method in the pesticide residues extraction in avocado. All extracts were analysed using gas chromatography coupled with a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer working in multi-reaction monitoring mode. GC QToF was used to compare the amount of matrix...
Head space (HS) solid-phase micro-extraction (SPME) combined with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) was used to analyze the volatile fraction of ambers of different geological origin. In particular, Romanian (romanite) and Baltic (succinite) amber samples were studied. Both types of amber have nearly similar bulk chemical compositions and could probably reflect only some differences of...
•Methodologies of processing surface-layered sorbents and estimates of their analytical capabilities are viewed.•The sorbents include micro-particles (sized ≤10μm) of charcoal embedded in micro-pores (ranging 0.5–1.0mm) of PTFE carrier.•The sorbents have higher efficacy than the same size particulars of charcoal.•The tried application of the sorbents is pre-concentrating of organic analytes in the...
Poly(ethylene glycol)-grafted graphene (PEG-g-G) was prepared and used as the solid phase microextraction (SPME) fiber coating for the extraction of seven volatile aromatic compounds (VACs) from water samples followed by the determination with gas chromatography-flame ionization detection. The PEG-g-G coating was characterized by both the thermal gravimetric analysis and scanning electron microscopy...
A triple quadrupole GC–QqQ–MS/MS method was optimized for multiresidue analysis of over 180 pesticides in blackcurrants. The samples were prepared by using a modified quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged and safe (QuEChERS) analytical protocol. To reduce matrix co-extractives in the final extract, the supernatant was cleaned up by dispersive-solid phase extraction (dispersive-SPE) with a mixture...
Multiple headspace solid-phase microextraction (SPME) has proved high efficiency in analysis of volatile compounds in complex samples. Fibers used in multiple headspace SPME must provide a logarithm relationship between peak areas and extraction times. The aim of this work was to investigate the potential of a carbon nanotube doped-polymeric ionic liquid (PILs) fiber for multiple headspace SPME of...
A method is described to determine vapor pressures of compounds in multicomponent systems simultaneously. The method is based on temperature-gradient analysis by comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography coupled to time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GCxGC-TOFMS). Vapor pressures are determined with the aid of known vapor pressure values of reference compounds eluting before and after the analytes...
A new headspace solid-phase micro-extraction (HS-SPME) method followed by gas chromatography with pulsed flame photometric detection (GC-PFPD) analysis has been developed for the simultaneous determination of 11 organotin compounds, including methyl-, butyl-, phenyl- and octyltin derivates, in human urine. The methodology has been validated by the analysis of urine samples fortified with all analytes...
Accurate understanding of analyte boiling points (BP) is of critical importance in gas chromatographic (GC) separation and crude oil refinery operation in petrochemical industries. This study reported the first combined use of GC separation and partial-least-square (PLS1) multivariate regression analysis of petrochemical structural activity relationship (SAR) for accurate BP determination of two commercially...
