[PMID: 38615532 DOI: 10.1016/j.foodchem.2024.139298] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/30/2023] [Revised: 02/15/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/16/2024]
Abstract
A convenient, efficient, and green dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction based on the in situ formation of solidified supramolecular solvents combined with high performance liquid chromatography was developed for the determination of four phenylurea herbicides in liquid samples, including monuron, monolinuron, isoproturon, and chlortoluron. Herein, a novel supramolecular solvent was prepared by the in situ reaction of [P4448]Br and NH4PF6, which had the advantages of low melting point, high density, and good dispersibility. In addition, the microscopic morphology and physical properties of supramolecular solvent were characterized, and the extraction conditions were optimized. The results showed that the analytes had good linearity (R2 > 0.9998) within the linear range. The limits of detection and quantification for the four phenylurea herbicides were in the range of 0.13-0.19 μg L-1 and 0.45-0.65 μg L-1, respectively. The prepared supramolecular solvent is suitable for the efficient extraction of phenylurea herbicides in water, fruit juice, and milk.

Liu Y, Zhou W, Sun W, Chen Z. Analysis of fluorinated compounds by micellar electrokinetic chromatography - mass spectrometry. J Chromatogr A 2021; 1645:462123. [PMID: 33848655 DOI: 10.1016/j.chroma.2021.462123] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/30/2020] [Revised: 03/23/2021] [Accepted: 03/25/2021] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) is a good separation technique with high efficiency, high selectivity and simple preparation process. Hyphenation of MEKC with mass spectrometry (MS) could extend its application in complex sample analysis. However, direct coupling MEKC using commonly used surfactants like sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) with ESI-MS will lead to strong signal suppression. In this work, a MEKC-MS method using volatile ammonium perfluorooctanoate as surfactant was developed. The MS compatibility of ammonium perfluorooctanoate was investigated. The result revealed that there is no signal suppression even the concentration of ammonium perfluorooctanoate was up to 300 mM. Meanwhile, we found that ammonium perfluorooctanoate used as surfactant in MEKC provided powerful F-F interaction and hydrophobic interaction, which was beneficial for separation of fluorinated compounds. Using the ammonium perfluorooctanoate based MEKC method, several groups of fluorinated compounds, which cannot be separated using non-fluorinated surfactants like lauric acid and SDS based MEKC method, were baseline separated. Finally, the MEKC-ESI-MS method was successfully applied for analysis of two herbicides including fluometuron and fenuron in lake water samples with high separation efficiency, high sensitivity, good linearity and reproducibility.

Abstract
In this work, we successfully demonstrated the fabrication of a chemical sensor for toxic 1,1-dimethyl-3-phenylurea (fenuron) by using a hollow polypyrrole composite film. Here, we studied the interaction between negatively charged phosphate anions enclosed in the film with positively charged nitrogen atoms present in the fenuron. The electrochemical response of the film was characterized by cyclic voltammetry in which, interestingly, we observed that the bigger alkyl aryl sulphonate ions were replaced by smaller phosphate ions with the creation of hollow/pore composite films. Confirmation for ion replacement in the film and porosity of the film were studied by elemental analysis and field emission scanning electron microscopy, respectively. The tuning of hydrophilic to hydrophobic nature of the hollow composite film was tested by the wettability test (contact angle measurement). The electrocatalytic materials, as well as the fenuron sensing conditions such as pH and film thickness, were wisely optimized on glassy carbon (GC) electrodes for better performance. We can enhance the fenuron sensitivity by over 5 times as compared to that on the GC substrate. To our knowledge, this is the first electrochemical fenuron sensor based on a hollow polymer film by differential pulse voltammetry which can detect lower concentrations and show quick response compared to other reports. This method has potential applications in the electrochemical sensing platform with good sensitive and selective analysis in agriculture groundwater samples.

Abstract
The zirconium metal-organic framework (Zr-MOF) was used as a novel and effective adsorbent material for the enrichment of five phenylurea herbicides (fenuron, monuron, diuron, linuron and pencycuron) in natural products. The target analytes were determined by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography coupled with quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Some crucial experimental parameters, such as type of adsorbents, amount of adsorbent, type of eluent solvents and adsorption capacity were investigated and optimized. Under the optimum extraction conditions, the enrichment factors of fenuron, monuron, diuron, linuron and pencycuron were 90, 128, 148, 204 and 295 times, respectively. A good linearity was obtained in different concentration levels of target analytes with the determination coefficients (r2) larger than 0.993. In addition, the limits of detection varied from 0.05 to 0.36 ng/mL and the recoveries of the analytes were in the range of 85.19-99.13 %. The results demonstrated that the proposed miniaturized solid-phase extraction procedure coupled with Zr-MOF could become an effective tool to analyze phenylurea herbicides and would have the vast application prospect for the extraction of pesticide residue and more organic pollutants from Hawthorn, Dendrobii Officinalis Caulis and Salviae Miltiorrhizae Radix et Rhizoma samples.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Some trace amounts of urea herbicide residues can be transferred to humans via the food chain, thereby being potentially harmful to human health. The development of a robust analytical methodology for effective sample preparation and simultaneous determination of herbicide residues in vegetable samples is required for achieving food safety. RESULTS The diuron-molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) synthesized have excellent affinity and high selectivity to phenylureas (monolinuron, isoproturon, diuron and linuron) and tebuthiuron. A novel automated procedure with better selectivity for vegetable sample treatment was developed by integrated matrix solid-phase dispersion-accelerated solvent extraction clean-up in situ. Five herbicides can be baseline separated with runtime down to 5 min by ultra-performance liquid chromatography, and good linearity was obtained with a correlation coefficient (r) of 0.9999. The limit of quantification of the method was in the range of 0.8-2.3 µg kg-1 . Diuron residue in cherry tomato sample was found to be 40 µg kg-1 . CONCLUSION The developed method has satisfactory selectivity, good linearity, high sensitivity and accuracy as well as speediness, and can ensure rapid selective extraction and sensitive multi-residue analysis at low microgram per kilogram levels of the herbicides in vegetable food. © 2018 Society of Chemical Industry.
