in this paper, the possibility of using a new ordered nanoporous carbon as a new fiber in headspace solid phase microextraction (hs-spme) to determine of mononitrotoluenes (mnts) in waste water is demonstrated. the structural order and textural properties of the ordered nanoporous carbon were studied by x ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) images and nitrogen adsorption i...

in this study, a sensitive method of dispersive liquid phase microextraction based on ion-pair combined with the flame atomic absorption spectrometry was proposed for the determination of trace ni(ii) using aliquat 336-chloride as ion pair agent. several factors which have effect on  the microextraction efficiency of ni(ii), such as ph, extraction and dispersive solvent type and their volume, c...

an efficient separation-preconcentration procedure namely hollow fiber solid/liquid phase microextraction (hf-slpme) was developed for determination of trace amounts of palladium in water samples by differential pulse voltammetry. in this method, a hybrid sorbent utilizing functionalized nanoparticles incorporated in an organic solvent was used as the extractor phase. the nanoparticle dis­perse...

The basic principles for the preparation of SPME fibers with satisfying selectivity, sensitivity, loading capacities and stabilities are summarized here in terms of the physicochemical properties of the coating materials and the supporting substrates of SPME fibers. While the main part of this chapter focuses on the advances in developing the most widely used coating materials, including ionic ...

Tubifex tubifex metabolizes 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) to 2-amino-4,6-dinitrotoluene (2ADNT) and 4-amino-2,6-dinitrotoluene (4ADNT). Elimination rates of metabolically-generated ADNTs are low compared to ADNTs absorbed directly from water, suggesting that metabolically-generated ADNTs may be bound or sequestered within tissue and therefore less available for elimination. A solid phase microext...

A new SPME device was developed and applied for quick solventless extraction/enrichment of small molecules from complex matrices. Subsequently, the device was coupled as a transmission mode substrate to DART resulting in limits of detection in the low pg mL(-1) level in less than 3 minutes with reproducibility below 5% RSD.

A new analytical method coupling a (off-line) solid-phase microextraction with an on-line capillary electrophoresis (CE) sample enrichment technique was developed for the analysis of ketoprofen, naproxen and clofibric acid from water samples, which are known as contaminants of emerging concern in aquatic environments. New solid-phase microextraction fibers based on physical coupling of chromato...

A fast headspace solid-phase microextraction gas chromatography method for micro-volume (0.1 mL) samples was optimized for the analysis of haloacetic acids (HAAs) in aqueous and biological samples. It includes liquid-liquid microextraction (LLME), derivatization of the acids to their methyl esters using sulfuric acid and methanol after evaporation, followed by headspace solid-phase microextract...

We report the application of the dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction coupled to hollow-fibre membrane-assisted liquid-phase microextraction and its application for extraction of atrazine and triclosan. Under optimum conditions, namely, 25 μL of a 1 : 4 chlorobenzene : ethyl acetate mixture dispersed in 1 mL of aqueous sample, 10% (m/v) NaCl, a magnetic stirrer speed at 600 rpm, and 10 minu...
