Abstract
An effervescent powder-assisted floating organic solvent-based dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction was introduced for determination of 13 organochlorine pesticides in water samples. In this method, a less toxic low-density organic solvent was used as extraction solvent. The extraction solvent was dispersed in to the aqueous sample via CO2 bubbles, in-situ generated up on addition of water to a falcon tube containing the mixture of effervescent powder precursors as well as the extraction solvent. Various experimental parameters such as effervescent and its weight fractions, extraction solvent type and its volume, the total mass of effervescent precursors, and the effect of salt were investigated and the optimal conditions were established. Under the optimum conditions, the proposed method exhibited good linearity for all target pesticides with the coefficient of determinations varying from 0.9981 to 0.9997. The limits of detection and quantification were within the range of 0.03-0.24 and 0.26-0.75 μg/L, respectively. The intra- and inter-day precisions which were expressed in terms of the relative standard deviation ranged from 0.33 to 4.47 and 0.51-5.52%, respectively. The enrichment factors and recoveries ranged from 24 to 293 and 76-116%, respectively. The proposed method could be used simple, cheap, fast, and environmentally friendly alternative for analysis of organochlorine pesticides from environmental water and other similar matrices.

Abstract
In order to effectively remove grease for the detection of sulfonamides, a non-toxic and low-cost hierarchical porous zirconia material was synthesized using the dual template method. The lipid impurities in an animal-derived food matrix can be absorbed by hierarchical zirconia. A ZrO2 prepolymer was synthesized by mixing amphiphilic triblock copolymer poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(propylene glycol)-block-poly(ethylene glycol) (P123) with tannin extract as the double template and Zr(SO4)2 as the metal source. After aging, drying and calcination at high temperature, the prepolymer transforms into a hierarchical porous structure. The synthesized materials were characterized using SEM, XRD, FT-IR, and BET. The results show that the material has an abundant pore structure and hierarchical pore structure. The adsorption conditions were optimized. The hierarchical porous ZrO2 synthesized by this method is relatively uniform, and is characterized by large specific surface area as well as high lipid impurity adsorption capacity. Through the optimization experiment of adsorption conditions, we found that hierarchical porous ZrO2 can reach the maximum adsorption capacity in 60 min under weak acidic conditions. The samples are used for actual sample testing such as HPLC of sulfadiazine (SD), sulfamethazine (SM2), sulfamethoxydiazine (SMD), sulfamethoxazole (SIZ) and sulfadimethoxine (SDM), and the recovery experiment of sulfonamides in chicken was carried out. The recoveries were 80.9-97.6% and the detection limit was 3.8-17.6 μg L-1. This work provides a new strategy for oil removal using hierarchical porous materials.

Abstract
Sulfonylurea herbicides (SUHs) are widely used in agriculture because of their low dosage, low cost, and high selectivity. However, due to improper use and lack of effective management, their residues pose a threat to the human health through environment and food pollution. Therefore, there is a need for simple, quick, economical, and effective methods to analyze SUHs in plant-derived foods, crops, and environmental samples. The present article presents a comprehensive review of the pretreatment and analytical technologies used for SUHs in various sample matrices, focusing on the developments since 2010. The main pretreatment methods include liquid-liquid extraction, solid-phase extraction, QuEChERS, and different microextraction methods, whereas analytical methods mainly include liquid chromatography coupled with different detectors, capillary electrophoresis, among others. In addition, the present study also compared the advantages and disadvantages of the methods and the future development is prospected.

Abstract
In this work, a combination of QuEChERS and dispersive micro-solid phase extraction (D-μ-SPE) based on dissolvable layered double hydroxide (LDH) has been established for preconcentration and enrichment of sulfonylurea herbicides (SUHs) in wolfberry samples. The QuEChERS was used for extraction and purification of SUHs, followed by D-μ-SPE for further enrichment of targeted analytes to obtain superior extraction performance. Dissolvable LDH nanosheets were used as absorbents, thus eliminating the elution step needed in traditional D-μ-SPE. The main influence experimental variables including pH of sample solution, amount of LDH, vortex time and volume of acidic solution were optimized in detail. Under the optimized conditions, the proposed method shows high precision (RSDs < 12.7%), low limits of detection (0.01-0.5 ng/g) and limits of quantitation (0.1-2.0 ng/g), acceptable recovery (80.1%-97.1%), thus making it a good alternative analytical strategy for the determination of SUHs residues at the low nanogram per gram range with desirable sensitivity.

Abstract
In this study, we propose a simple, cost-effective, and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography method with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD) for the simultaneous determination of the three bisphenols (BPs): bisphenol A bis (2,3-dihydroxypropyl) ether (BADGE 2H2O), bisphenol F (BPF), and bisphenol E (BPE) in human urine samples. The dispersive solid phase extraction (d-SPE) coupled with solid phase extraction (SPE) procedure performed well for the analytes with recoveries in the range of 74.3-86.5% and relative standard deviations (RSD%) less than 10%. The limits of quantification (LOQs) for all investigated analytes were in the range of 11.42-22.35 ng mL-1. The method was validated at three concentration levels (1 × LOQ, 1.5 × LOQ, and 3 LOQ). During the bisphenols HPLC-FLD analysis, from 6 min a reinforcement (10 or 12) was used, therefore analytes might be identified in the small volume human urine samples. The results demonstrated clearly that the approach developed provides reliable, simple, and rapid quantification and identification of three bisphenols in a urine matrix and could be used for monitoring these analytes.

Abstract
In this study, we propose a simple, cost-effective, and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD) for the simultaneous determination of seven bisphenols (bisphenol F (BPF), bisphenol E (BPE), bisphenol B (BPB), BADGE (bisphenol A diglycidyl ether), BADGE∙2H2O, BADGE∙H2O, BADGE∙2HCl) in human breast milk samples. The dispersive solid phase extraction (d-SPE) coupled with solid phase extraction (SPE) procedure performed well for the majority of the analytes with recoveries in the range 57–88% and relative standard deviations (RSD%) of less than 9.4%. During the d-SPE stage, no significant matrix effect was observed thanks to the application of different pairs of salts such as zirconium-dioxide-based sorbents (Z-Sep or Z-Sep +) and primary secondary amine (PSA) or QuEChERS Enhanced Matrix Removal-Lipid (EMR-Lipid) and PSA. The method limits of quantification (mLOQs) for all investigated analytes were set at satisfactory low values in the range 171.89–235.11 ng mL−1. Analyte concentrations were determined as the average value from human breast milk matrix samples. The results show that the d-SPE/SPE procedure, especially with the application of EMR-Lipid and PSA, could be used for further bisphenol analyses in human breast milk samples.

Abstract
An efficient matrix cleanup method was developed for the rapid screening of 92 illegal adulterants (25 erectile dysfunction drugs, 15 steroids, seven anabolic steroids, 12 antihistamines, 12 nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), four diuretics, and 17 weight-loss drugs) in soft-gel-type supplements by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole/time of flight-mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q/TOF-MS). As representative green chemistry methods, three sample preparation methods (dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction (DLLME), “quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe” dispersive solid-phase extraction (QuEChERS-dSPE), and enhanced matrix removal-lipid (EMR-Lipid) dSPE) were evaluated for matrix removal efficiency, recovery rate, and matrix effect. In this study, EMR-Lipid dSPE was shown to effectively remove complicated matrix contents in soft-gels, compared to DLLME and QuEChERS-dSPE. For the rapid screening of a wide range of adulterants, extracted common ion chromatogram (ECIC) and neutral loss scan (NLS) based on specific common MS/MS fragments were applied to randomly collected soft-gel-type dietary supplement samples using UHPLC-Q/TOF-MS. Both ECICs and NLSs enabled rapid and simple screening of multi-class adulterants and could be an alternative to the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) method. The developed method was validated in terms of limit of detection (LOD), precision, accuracy, recovery, and matrix effects. The range of LODs was 0.1–16 ng/g. The overall precision values were within 0.09–14.65%. The accuracy ranged from 81.6% to 116.6%. The recoveries and matrix effects of 92 illegal adulterants ranged within 16.9–119.4% and 69.8–114.8%, respectively. The established method was successfully applied to screen and identify 92 illegal adulterants in soft-gels. This method can be a promising tool for the high-throughput screening of various adulterants in dietary supplements and could be used as a more environmentally friendly routine analytical method for screening dietary supplements illegally adulterated with multi-class drug substances.

Abstract
A method for sensitive analysis of 19 anabolic steroids (AS) in animal oil using enhanced matrix removal lipid (EMR-Lipid) cleanup and ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) was developed. Oil samples were extracted with 20 mL of acetonitrile aqueous solution and purified using EMR-Lipid cartridges. The eluent was evaporated to dryness under nitrogen and analyzed by UHPLC-MS/MS using 0.1% formic acid-acetonitrile and 0.1% formic acid-water solutions as the mobile phase via gradient elution. The method effectively removed unwanted matrix co-extractives better than other extraction cleanup techniques while still delivering acceptable recovery results for most of the AS. The established quantification method showed AS recovery in the range of 72.9-110.7% with good precision (relative standard deviation < 15%).

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sulfonylureas are potentially toxic broad-spectrum herbicides. They pose a persistent threat to food safety and the environment. It is therefore important to develop a rapid and efficient pretreatment and detection method to prevent their harmful effects on human health. RESULTS In the present work, a novel and highly selective absorbent for chlorosulfuron (CS) detection was prepared by the simple self-polymerization of dopamine on the surface of magnetic graphene oxide using a CS template. The resultant imprinted nanoparticles (MGO@PDA-MIPs) were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, vibrating-sample magnetometry, thermogravimetric analysis, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption. The adsorption experiments demonstrated that the MGO@PDA-MIPs have excellent selectivity with regard to CS, with a high imprinting factor of 3.41 compared with a non-imprinted polymer. The nanoparticles rapidly achieve adsorption equilibrium and efficient desorption because there are numerous binding sites on the thin polydopamine imprinting layer. Under optimized conditions, the MGO@PDA-MIPs can be used to detect sulfonylurea residues in cereal samples by magnetic solid phase extraction coupled with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The nanoparticles have a satisfactory recovery rate (80.65-101.01%) with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of less than 7.15%, and a limit of detection with regard to CS of 1.61 μg kg-1 (S/N = 3). They can also be re-used at least seven times. CONCLUSION The MGO@PDA-MIPs have outstanding recognition performance, and can be prepared by a facile, single-step, and environmentally friendly process. They therefore have excellent potential for the recognition and separation of trace sulfonylurea herbicides in complex matrices. © 2020 Society of Chemical Industry.

Abstract
A method for simultaneous determination of ten pyrethroid insecticides residues in edible mushrooms was developed. The samples were pretreated by a quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged (QuEChERS) method. The ten pyrethroid insecticides were extracted from six kinds of edible mushrooms using acetonitrile and subsequently cleaned up by octadecylsilane (C18) or primary secondary amine (PSA). Instrumental analysis was completed in 16 min using gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS/MS). The overall average recoveries in the six kinds of edible mushrooms at three levels (10, 100 and 1000 μg kg-1) ranged from 72.8% to 103.6%. The intraday and interday relative standard deviations (RSD) were lower than 13.0%. The quantification limits were below 5.57 μg kg-1 in different matrices. The results demonstrated that the method is convenient for the quick detection of pyrethroid insecticides in edible mushrooms.

Abstract
This work proposes a novel Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe (QuEChERS) method in combination with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry for the determination of sulfonylurea residues in edible seeds. The chromatographic separation of nine sulfonylureas was accomplished in less than 5.5 min, using a Luna Omega C18 column (50 × 2.1 mm, 1.6 µm). Mobile phase was supplied at 0.55 mL min-1 and consisted of 0.01% (v/v) aqueous acetic acid as eluent A and a mixture methanol/acetonitrile (80/20, v/v) as eluent B. Column temperature was established at 25 °C. A QuEChERS procedure was investigated as sample treatment for sulfonylureas extraction and sample clean-up. Different clean-up agents (i.e. PSA, Z-Sep+, EMR-Lipid and C18) were evaluated, selecting Z-Sep+ (25 mg) as the best option. The proposed method provided an extraction efficiency greater than 86.2%, while absolute matrix effect was lower than 50.1%. Matrix-matched calibration curves were required for analyte quantification. The analytical method was characterized according to SANTE/11813/2017 guideline, and including limits of detection and quantification, precision, and trueness. Linear dynamic ranges were established from 5 to 150 µg kg-1 for all analytes. Linearity (R2 ≥ 0.9974) and precision in terms of repeatability and intermediate precision (relative standard deviation ≤ 14.7%) are reported. The reporting limit was established at 5 µg kg-1, which is above the limits of quantification of the proposed method (≤ 1.64 µg kg-1) and below the maximum residue levels currently established by European legislation. In general, trueness is within the range of 70-120%. Despite greater recoveries were obtained at the reporting limit (i.e. 120-138%), relative standard deviations lower than 20% were obtained at this concentration level, so fulfilling the requirements of SANTE/11813/2017 guideline. This work represents the first analytical method intended for the analysis of sulfonylureas in sunflower, pumpkin and chia seeds, which are complex matrices due to their high content of fat as well as of growing interest due to their current commercialization as nutraceuticals.

Abstract
In recent years, the determination of phenolic compounds in vegetable oil has aroused broad attention because these compounds have beneficial effects on health. In this work, a novel method based on the quick, easy, cheap, effective, rugged, and safe (QuEChERS) method and LC-MS/MS was developed for the analysis of phenolic compounds. A total of 18 mL of acetonitrile, 3 mL of water, and 270 mg of C18 sorbent were utilized in the optimized QuEChERS procedure. The LC-MS/MS analysis was performed in a C18 column under gradient-elution conditions with eluent of acetonitrile and water with 0.1% acetic acid. The QuEChERS approach achieved decent extraction recoveries (75.32-103.93%) for most phenolic compounds. The QuEChERS-LC-MS/MS method was validated in terms of accuracy, precision, sensitivity, and linearity. The proposed method was further evaluated using different prepared rapeseed oils. The result demonstrated that QuEChERS-LC-MS/MS is a rapid and reliable method for determining phenolic compounds in rapeseed oils.

Abstract
Multiresidual pesticide determination in a biological sample is essential for an immediate decision and response related to various pesticide intoxications. A rapid and simultaneous analytical method for 260 pesticides in human urine was developed and validated using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). High speed positive/negative switching electrospray ionization (ESI) mode was used, and scheduled multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) was optimized. Three versions of scaled-down QuEChERS procedures were evaluated, and the procedure using non-buffer reagents (magnesium sulfate and sodium chloride) and excluding cleanup steps was selected for optimum pesticide extraction. The limit of quantitation (LOQ) in this methodology was 10 ng/mL for each target pesticide, and correlation coefficient (r2) values of calibration curves were ≥0.988 (linearity range; 10–250 ng/mL). In accuracy and precision tests, the relative error ranges were −18.4% to 19.5%, with relative standard deviation (RSD) 2.1%–19.9% at an LOQ level (10 ng/mL), and −14.7% to 14.9% (RSD; 0.6%–14.9%) at higher concentrations (50, 150, and 250 ng/mL). Recovery range was 54.2%–113.9% (RSD; 0.3%–20.0%), and the soft matrix effect (range; −20% to 20%) was observed in 75.4% of target pesticides. The established bioanalytical methods are sufficient for application to biomonitoring in agricultural exposures and applicable in the forensic and clinic.
