Modification of cellulose substrate by in situ synthesis of metal-organic framework-5 for thin film microextraction of some non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and their measurement by high-performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detector

This work, reports the successful preparation a thin film by a simple and inexpensive process for quantification of a model analytes in the urine sample using HPLC-UV. To this end, cellulose paper was employed as a substrate for the in-situ synthesis of MOF-5, to increase the resistance of the prepared film. The prepared film can be reused 26 times with no reduction in its performance. The thin film prepared by MOF-5 modified cellulose substrate was utilized in thin film microextraction (TFME) method for the extraction and preconcentration of naproxen, aspirin, tolmetin, and celecoxib. Under optimal conditions, the linear dynamic range of the target analytes was 2-500 µg L-1 with correlation coefficients (R2) ranging from 0.9961 to 0.9990. Also, the limits of detection (LODs), the limits of quantification (LOQs) and relative standard deviation (RSD%) of the proposed method for selected analytes ranged between 0.57 and 0.77 µg L-1, 1.7 to 2.3 and 3.5 % to 6.2 %, respectively. Moreover, relative recoveries varied from of 94 % to 108 %, indicating the absence of matrices effect in the proposed method. Eventually, the TFME was successfully used for the extraction of selected analytes from urine samples.

Hybrid porous material supported in a cellulose acetate polymeric membrane for the direct immersion thin-film microextraction of parabens in water

A simple and sensitive direct immersion thin-film microextraction (DI-TFME) method based on MIL-101(Cr) modified with carbon nanofibers supported in cellulose acetate (CA-MIL-101(Cr)@CNFs) polymeric membrane was developed for the extraction and preconcentration of parabens in environmental water samples. A high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD) was used for the determination and quantification of methylparaben (MP) and propylparaben (PP). The factors affecting the DI-TFME performance were investigated using central composite design (CCD). The linearity of the DI-TFME/HPLC-DAD method obtained under optimal conditions was 0.04-0.04-500 µg/L with a correlation coefficient (R2) greater than 0.99, respectively. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) for methylparaben were 11 ng/L and 37 ng/L; for propylparaben, they were 13 ng/L and 43 ng/L, respectively. The enrichment factors were 93.7 and 123 for methylparaben and propylparaben. The intraday (repeatability) and interday (reproducibility) precisions expressed as relative standard deviations (%RSD) were less than 5%. Furthermore, the DI-TFME/HPLC-DAD method was validated using real water samples spiked with known concentrations of the analytes. The recoveries ranged from 91.5 to 99.8%, and intraday and interday trueness values were less than ±15%. The DI-TFME/HPLC-DAD approach was effectively used for the preconcentration and quantification of parabens in river water and wastewater samples.

Keggin type phosphotungstic acid intercalated copper-chromium-layered double hydroxide reinforced porous hollow fiber as a sorbent for hollow fiber solid phase microextraction of selected chlorophenols besides their quantification via high performance liquid chromatography

Herein, a copper-chromium-layered double hydroxide (Cu/Cr-LDH) was synthesized by the co-precipitation method. The Cu/Cr-LDH was intercalated to the Keggin-type polyoxometalate (H₃PW₁₂O₄₀). The modified LDH accommodated in the pores of hollow fiber (HF), to prepare the extracting device for the HF-solid phase microextraction method (HF-SPME). The method was used for the extraction of 4-chlorophenol, 2,4-dichlorophenol, and 2,4,6- trichlorophenol from tap water, river water, and tea sample. The extracted target analytes were quantified via high-performance liquid chromatography-UV detection. The figures of merit of the method such as, linear dynamic ranges (LDRs), limit of detections (LODs) and, limit of quantifications (LOQs), were determined based on the obtained optimum condition. Based on the results, the LDR was between 1 and 500 μg L ^- 1 and r² higher than 0.9960. The LODs and LOQs were obtained in the ranges of 0.28-0.36 µg L ^- 1 and 0.92-1.1 µg L ^- 1, respectively. The relative standard deviations ((RSDs% for inter-and intra-day) of the method for the extraction of target analytes were calculated in two different concentrations of (2 and 10 μg L ^- 1) and (5 and 10 μg L ^- 1) between 3.70% - 5.30% and 3.50% - 5.70%-respectively. The enrichment factors were obtained between 57 and 61. In order to investigate the accuracy of the method, also the relative recovery was obtained, between 93 and 105%. Finally, the proposed method was used for the extraction of the selected analytes in different water and tea samples.

The electrospun polyacrylonitrile/covalent organic framework nanofibers for efficient enrichment of trace sulfonamides residues in food samples

In this work, the electrospun polyacrylonitrile/covalent organic frameworks Tp-BD nanofibers (PAN/Tp-BD) were synthesized and applied as an adsorbent for thin film microextraction (TFME) of seven sulfonamides in animal derived food samples. The morphology, structure, porosity, and stability of the prepared nanofibers were investigated. The PAN/Tp-BD nanofibers exhibited good chemical stability, high flexibility, porous fibrous structure, and excellent extraction efficiency. Based on the PAN/Tp-BD nanofibers as the adsorbent, a thin film microextraction-high performance liquid chromatography (TFME-HPLC) method for the determination of seven sulfonamides (SAs) in food samples was developed. Under the optimal conditions, the TFME-HPLC exhibited the low limit of detection (0.10-0.18 ng·mL^-1), the low limit of quantitation (0.33-0.60 ng·mL^-1), the wide linear range (0.5-50 ng·mL^-1) with correlation coefficients between 0.994 and 0.998, and good enrichment factors between 39.7 to 170.1 towards 20 ng/mL SAs solution. The relative standard deviation (RSD) was lower than 11% in the interday and intraday analysis. Furthermore, the applicability of PAN/Tp-BD nanofibers was demonstrated for measuring trace SAs residues in the spiked food samples with recoveries ranging from 85.3% to 115.2%. The results demonstrated that the PAN/Tp-BD nanofibers have great potential for the efficient extraction of sulfonamides from complex food samples.
