Abstract
Urine is one of the biological matrices most used for detecting human contamination, as it is representative and easily obtained via noninvasive sampling. This study proposes a fast, accurate, and ecological method based on liquid-liquid microextraction with low-temperature partition (μLLE/LTP). It was validated to determine nine pesticides (lindane, alachlor, aldrin, chlorpyrifos, dieldrin, endrin, DDT, bifenthrin, and permethrin) in human urine, in association with gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The technique was optimized through a factorial design. The best conditions for the simultaneous extraction of the analytes comprised the addition of 600 µL of water and 600 µL of acetonitrile (extracting solvent) to a 500-µL urine sample, followed by vortexing for 60 s. By freezing the samples for 4 h, it was possible to extract the pesticides and perform the extract clean-up simultaneously. The parameters selectivity, linearity, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), precision, and accuracy were used to appraise the performance of the method. Good values of selectivity and linearity (R2 > 0.990), LOQ (0.39-1.02 μg L-1), accuracy (88-119% recovery), and precision (%CV ≤ 15%) were obtained. The μLLE/LTP-GC-MS method was applied to authentic urine samples collected from volunteers in Southeast Brazil.

CHEMOSPHERE 2021; 264:128487.

Abstract
EDTA and soluble Cr(III) are usually both present in wastewaters coming from treatment plants handling tannery effluents. A well-established method to determine EDTA is based on the conversion of free and complexed EDTA into its Fe(III) complex. This procedure gives inconsistent data when Cr(III)-EDTA is present. This fact was here demonstrated by studying the kinetics of the exchange reaction between Fe(III) and Cr(III)-EDTA at 90 °C and various pH values, from acidic to neutral. The reaction is very slow (several weeks); the slow kinetics of conversion of Cr(III)-EDTA to Fe(III)-EDTA is even more accentuated at room temperature and the low concentrations of reactants in wastewaters. The presence of EDTA complexes of Fe(III) and Cr(III) was demonstrated in industrial effluents and wastewaters by developing a selective method based on liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), which was able to detect free and complexed EDTA at concentration levels <1 μM. A systematic underestimation of the EDTA expressed as Fe(III) complex was demonstrated in samples containing Cr(III)-EDTA. Cr(III)-EDTA was identified for the first time as a component of wastewater samples at a concentration level of about 2 μM and turned out to be an inert species that significantly contributes to the final soluble Cr amount. This study gives new insights into the inertness of Cr(III) toward metal exchange equilibria of EDTA complexes, resolves a bias in the analysis of total EDTA in samples containing Cr(III)-EDTA, allowing the direct determination of free and complexed EDTA by LC-MS.
