This paper describes a dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (DLLME) procedure using room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) coupled with flame atomic absorption spectrometry detection with microsample introduction system capable of quantifying trace amounts of lead. In the proposed approach, ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (APDC) was used as a chelating agent and 1-hexyl-3-methylimmidaz...

A new method of dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) combined with graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS) was proposed for the determination ultra-trace copper. It based on reaction Cu(II) laboratory-prepared chelating agent 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-dimethylaminoaniline (5-Br-PADMA) in a HAc-NaAc buffer solution at pH 5.0 to form stable hydrophobic chelates, which...

This work describes the development of an HPLC-FLD methodology for separation five fluoroquinolones (ciprofloxacin, enrofloxacin, sarafloxacin, norfloxacin and levofloxacin) followed by optimization DLLME process clean-up preconcentration enrofloxacin in samples seawater river water. The mobile phase used chromatographic consisted methanol: phosphate buffer (NaHPO4 H2O 0.04 M pH 3 with H3PO4 85...

Sample preparation has been recognized as a major step in the chemical analysis workflow. As such, substantial efforts have been made in recent years to simplify the overall sample preparation process. Major focusses of these efforts have included miniaturization of the extraction device; minimizing/eliminating toxic and hazardous organic solvent consumption; eliminating sample pre-treatment an...

Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) are the potential group of chemicals used to improve agricultural productivity. The extensive use of pesticides to improve agricultural productivity played an important role in the last century. These compounds have been applied for decades in preventing, repelling or mitigating the effects of pests. OCPs are one of the most persistent organic pollutants present...

Abstract As the world population continues to grow, so does pollution of water resources. It is, therefore, important identify ways reducing as part our effort significantly increase supply clean and safer water. In this study, efficiency ultrasound-assisted dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (UA-DLLME) a fast, economical, simple method for extraction malachite green (MG) rhodamine B (RB)...

Background and Objectives: Furfural (F) and hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF) are cyclic aldehydes, which are formed during the heat processing of foods. These chemical contaminants have received much attention due to their suspected health hazards and heat damage indicators. The aim of the present study was extraction and determination of F and HMF in baby-foods using dispersive liquid-liquid micro...

A rapid and sensitive dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) has been developed for the extraction of selected polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), namely phenanthrene (PHE) fluoranthene (FLA) in green tea beverage samples. The extracted PAHs were separated determined by using high-performance liquid chromatography diode array detection (HPLC-DAD). An experimental design response ...

A simple and rapid microextraction procedure based on dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME) was developed for determination and speciation of trace amounts of chromium (Cr) by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). In the proposed approach, chloroform and methanol were used as extraction and dispersive solvents. A new Schiff's base ligand, bis(2-methoxy benzaldehyde) ethylene d...
