In the present work, a simple method of sample preparation for the determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water rich in colloidal particulate was developed. The technique was mainly based on the effect of the flocculation of aluminum sulfate and the adsorption of the flocculation aid florisil. The method contained three steps: flocculation, ultrasonic extraction, and solid-phase...
A new approach for the analysis of Co(II), Ni(II) and Pd(II) as morpholine-4-carbodithioate (MDTC) complexes in aqueous medium by using solid phase microextraction (SPME)–high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)–UV has been developed. The method involves sorption of metal complexes on PDMS fiber from aqueous solution followed by desorption in the desorption chamber of SPME–HPLC interface using...
Stir bar sorptive extraction and liquid desorption followed by high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (SBSE-LD-LC-DAD) is proposed for the determination of triclosan in personal care products, biological and environmental matrices, which is included in the priority lists, set by several international regulatory organizations. Instrumental conditions and experimental parameters...
In order to achieve reliable information on speciation analysis, it is necessary to assess previously the species stability in the sample to analyse. Furthermore, in those cases where the sample treatment for species extraction is time-consuming, an assessment of the species integrity in the extracts is of paramount importance. Thus, the present paper reports total arsenic and arsenic species stability...
In this paper, imidazolium-based ionic liquids [C 4 mim][PF 6 ], [C 6 mim][PF 6 ], [C 8 mim][PF 6 ], [C 6 mim][BF 4 ] and [C 8 mim][BF 4 ] were tested as extracting solvents for removal of 3-indole butyric acid (IBA) from aqueous media with subsequent determination using HPLC. Percent extraction of IBA was strongly affected...
A method for determination of seven polyphenols (chlorogenic acid, esculetin, caffeic acid, scopoletin, rutin, quercetin hydrate, kaempferol) by reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) combined with preconcentration was developed. The preconcentration was accomplished by adsorption–desorption method with a styrene-divinylbenzene resin (XAD-4), and the analytes were desorbed...
In this work, polyurethane foams (PU) were developed, characterized and applied as new generation polymeric phases for stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) using seven triazinic herbicides (simazine, atrazine, prometon, ametryn, propazine, prometryn and terbutryn) as model compounds in water matrices. Assays performed for PU synthesis and characterization demonstrated that seven formulations presented...
A novel on-line coupled HPLC–hydride generation (HG)–ICP/MS system was developed for rapid, direct and sensitive speciation of methyltins in seawater without any pretreatment step. Methyltin compounds were separated by reversed phase HPLC, and then on-line reacted with potassium borohydride and acetic acid to generate volatile hydride products. The volatile derivatization products were separated in...
A molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) has been synthesized by a thermo-polymerization method using methacrylic acid (MAA) as functional monomer, ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as cross-linker, acetonitrile as porogenic solvent, and 17β-estradiol as template. The MIP showed obvious affinity for 17β-estradiol in acetonitrile solution, which was confirmed by absorption experiments. After optimization...
A new simple, rapid and sensitive liquid chromatographic method has been developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of pseudoephdrine, pheniramine, guaifenisin, pyrilamine, chlorpheniramine and dextromethorphan in cough and cold pharmaceuticals. The separation of these compounds was achieved within 13min on a Kromasil C18 column using an isocratic mobile phase consisting of methanol–dihydrogenphosphate...
Microwave-assisted sample preparation using diluted nitric acid solutions is an alternative procedure for digesting organic samples. The efficiency of this procedure depends on the chemical properties of the samples and in this work it was evaluated by the determination of crude protein amount, fat and original carbon. Soybeans grains, bovine blood, bovine muscle and bovine viscera were digested in...
A novel method for determination of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) in an extract from mung bean sprouts using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with chemiluminescence (CL) detection is described. The method is based on the CL reaction of auxin (indole-3-acetic acid and indole-3-butyric acid) with acidic potassium permanganate (KMnO 4 ) and tris(2,2′-bipyridyl)ruthenium(II),...
A combined system of flow injection on-line dialysis sample pretreatment and high performance liquid chromatographic separation/detection (FID–HPLC) was developed for simultaneous determination of six organic acids (tartaric, malic, lactic, acetic, citric and succinic acids). A sample or mixed standard solution (400μL) was injected into a donor stream (water) of FID system and was pushed further through...
Determination of amino acids by mass spectrometry (MS) is an important technique to investigate soil nitrogen transformation and cycling as amino acids being the major nitrogen-containing compounds in soil organic matter. However, researchers have long faced a critical problem in coupling an efficient separation technique to a sensitive MS detection system simultaneously. In this context, we established...
Acidic potassium permanganate chemiluminescence was explored as a sensitive and selective mode of detection for phenolic phenethylamines (adrenergic amines) in consumer products containing Citrus aurantium extracts. Nine commercially available weight-loss products were analysed using rapid reversed-phase chromatography with a monolithic column (separation time of 4min). The results were in good agreement...
A method based on coupling of cloud point extraction (CPE) with high performance liquid chromatography separation and ultraviolet detection was developed for determination of xanthohumol in beer. The nonionic surfactant Triton X-114 was chosen as the extraction medium. The parameters affecting the CPE were evaluated and optimized. The highest extraction yield of xanthohumol was obtained with 2.5%...

Boronate affinity solid phase microextraction (BA-SPME) is a new format appeared recently with great potential for specific extraction of cis-diol-containing compounds. Unlike conventional SPME, BA-SPME relies on covalent interactions and thereby features with specific selectivity, eliminated matrix effect and manipulable capture/release. However, only on-fiber BA-SPME and its off-line combination...
A simple one-step in situ “click” modification strategy was developed for the preparation of hydrophobic organic monolithic columns for the first time.
