Green Extraction Processes for Complex Samples from Vegetable Matrices Coupled with On-Line Detection System: A Critical Review. Molecules 2022; 27:molecules27196272. [PMID: 36234823 PMCID: PMC9571248 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27196272] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/22/2022] [Revised: 09/15/2022] [Accepted: 09/17/2022] [Indexed: 12/02/2022] Open
Abstract
The detection of analytes in complex organic matrices requires a series of analytical steps to obtain a reliable analysis. Sample preparation can be the most time-consuming, prolonged, and error-prone step, reducing the reliability of the investigation. This review aims to discuss the advantages and limitations of extracting bioactive compounds, sample preparation techniques, automation, and coupling with on-line detection. This review also evaluates all publications on this topic through a longitudinal bibliometric analysis, applying statistical and mathematical methods to analyze the trends, perspectives, and hot topics of this research area. Furthermore, state-of-the-art green extraction techniques for complex samples from vegetable matrices coupled with analysis systems are presented. Among the extraction techniques for liquid samples, solid-phase extraction was the most common for combined systems in the scientific literature. In contrast, for on-line extraction systems applied for solid samples, supercritical fluid extraction, ultrasound-assisted extraction, microwave-assisted extraction, and pressurized liquid extraction were the most frequent green extraction techniques.

Abstract
On-line hyphenation of extraction with chromatography has been explored in several different types of combinations. However, monitoring the complete process of a dynamic, continuous-flow extraction is not possible with any hyphenated system reported so far. The current work demonstrates that this challenging task can be effectively fulfilled by using a parallel sampling interface, which mimics the concept of comprehensive two-dimensional chromatography. In this study, pressurised hot water extraction was coupled on-line with ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography. The set-up was utilised in a kinetic study of dynamic pressurised hot water extraction of curcuminoids from turmeric powder. Compound-specific extraction curves were obtained, which clearly indicated the rate-limiting factors of the extraction processes under different conditions. Additionally, thermal degradation of curcumin during the extraction could also be demonstrated in some of the extractions.

Electrochemical detection of benzo(a)pyrene in acetonitrile-water binary medium. Talanta 2015; 138:46-51.

Abstract
Electrochemical oxidation of adsorbed benzo(a)pyrene (BaP) on the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was explored in acetonitrile-water. When the GCE was incubated in 100 nM BaP acetonitrile-water (V(water):V(acetonitrile)=1:1) for 10 min at open circuit, and then transferred into blank acetonitrile-water (V(water):V(acetonitrile)=1:1, pH= 0.70) for differential pulse voltammetry measurement, a distinct oxidation peak at 0.98 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) was observed. The peak potential was about 180 mV lower than that in acetonitrile. Importantly, the peak current was more than 22 times greater. The effects of water on BaP preconcentration on the electrode and electrochemical oxidation were revealed, respectively. Based on the results, an electrochemical assay for BaP detection was developed. The GCE was respectively incubated in acetonitrile-water (V(water):V(acetonitrile)=1:1)with BaP concentration ranged from 0 nM to 1000 nM, and then transferred into the corresponding blank acetonitrile-water (pH= 0.70) for DPV measurements. When the BaP concentration was increased, an increased oxidative current at 0.98 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) was observed, and a detection limit of 0.67 nM was achieved. Because all other priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons could not be electrochemically oxidized at 0.98 V, the electrochemical assay showed very high selectivity to BaP. Finally, the developed electrochemical assay was successfully applied to determination of BaP in a series of real world samples, such as drinking water, tap water, lake water and river water.

Abstract
This chapter highlights miniaturization in sample preparation as a valuable alternative for green analytical chemistry. The current state of the art is discussed on the basis of examples selected from representative application areas, including biomedical, environmental and food analysis, and involving conventional instrumental techniques for final determination of the target compounds. The emphasis is on those techniques and approaches that have already demonstrated their practicality by the analysis of real-life samples, and in particular on those dealing with the accurate determination of minor organic components. The potential of recent developments in this field for sample treatment simplification and complete hyphenation of analytical processes are discussed and the most pressing remaining limitations evaluated.

Abstract
The latest developments in sample preparation and extraction of synthetic pyrethroids from environmental matrices viz., water, sediment and soil were reviewed. Though the synthetic pyrethroids were launched in 1970s, to the best of authors' knowledge there was no review on this subject until date. The present status and recent advances made during the last 10 years in sample preparation including conservation and extraction techniques used in determination of synthetic pyrethroids in water, sediment and soil were discussed. Pre- and post-extraction treatments, sample stability during extraction and its influence upon the whole process of analytical determination were covered. Relative merits and demerits including the green aspects of extraction were evaluated. The current trends and future prospects were also addressed.

Abstract
On-line coupling of extraction and chromatographic separation allows the whole analysis to be performed in a closed system. On-line systems are particularly useful when the analytes are labile, the amount of sample is limited, or very high sensitivity is required. Many on-line systems have been developed both for liquid and for solid samples. This review discusses the different instruments that have been constructed and the factors that need to be considered in the coupling. Selected illustrative applications are described to illustrate the potential of the on-line systems.

Abstract
A rapid dynamic microwave-assisted extraction and on-line detection by spectrophotometry is proposed for the determination of safflower yellow in Flos Carthami. A high pressure and a peristaltic pump were used to deliver the solvent. A TM010 microwave resonance cavity was applied to concentrate the microwave energy and the forward power about 60 W was enough for the extraction. Other extraction conditions also were examined and optimized. In this work, the extraction process can be monitored by measuring the absorption of safflower yellow in the extract, which would be convenient for rapid optimization of the extraction process. The detection and quantification limits are 8 and 27 microg mL(-1), respectively. The within-day and between-day precision (R.S.D.) are 1.6-3.2% and 2.8-4.2%, respectively. Compared with off-line detection, the proposed method may provide more rapid measurement and is more convenient for obtaining continuous measurements.

Abstract
An on-line method, with a purely aqueous mobile phase, has employed linked superheated water extraction and superheated water separation for the analysis of triazine herbicides in spiked compost samples. After the superheated water extraction, a X-Terra solid-phase trap was used to collect and focus the extracted analytes. The trapped analytes were then released by thermal desorption and passed directly to a superheated water chromatographic separation using a PGC column. Two clean-up steps (prior to extraction and separation) were included to remove most of the interfering matrix components. The effects of the sample matrix and the extraction temperatures on the recovery of the triazines were investigated. Despite some thermal degradation of the chloro-triazines during the SWE, the on-line SWE-SWC method was sensitive and rapid. The coupled method could potentially reduce costs and labour and by using only water in every stage is compatible with the concepts of green chemistry.

Abstract
The increasing demand for faster, more cost-effective and environmentally friendly analytical methods is a major incentive to improve the classical procedures used for sample treatment in environmental analysis. In most classical procedures, the use of rapid and powerful instrumental techniques for the final separation and detection of the analytes contrasts with the time-consuming and usually manual methods used for sample preparation, which slows down the total analytical process. The efforts made in this field in the past ten years have led to the adaptation of existing methods and the development of new techniques to save time and chemicals, and improve overall performance. One route has been to develop at-line or on-line and, frequently, automated systems. In these approaches, miniaturization has been a key factor in designing integrated analytical systems to provide higher sample throughput and/or unattended operation. Selected examples of novel developments in the field of miniaturized sample preparation for environmental analysis are used to evaluate the merits of the various techniques on the basis of published data on real-life analyses of trace-level organic pollutants. Perspectives and trends are briefly discussed.

A miniaturised analytical method allowing the exhaustive extraction of environmentally relevant polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from fatty foodstuffs and the purification of the extracts in a single step has been developed. After dispersion of the freeze dried sample on silica modified with 44% (w/w) of sulphuric acid, the mixture was packed in a glass column on top of a multilayer silica column used for removal of the lipids and biogenic co-extracted material. Using this arrangement, a complete sample preparation can be accomplished by two successive 10 min static extractions with hexane followed by a brief dynamic step to ensure purging of the sample and sorbents. The analytical method showed a satisfactory performance, with recoveries of the endogenous PCBs studied in the 81-134% range of those found using a more conventional off-line procedure, even though as small an amount of sample as 0.1 g was used. Detection limits by gas chromatography with micro-electron capture detection (GC-ECD) were in all cases lower than 0.3 ng/g sample (freeze dried basis) and the repeatability of the complete analytical procedure better than 14% (except for PCB 167). When combined with GC and ion trap detection in the tandem mass spectrometry mode, the miniaturised method has been proved to be a valuable alternative to the more expensive high resolution mass spectrometry for fast screening of PCBs 77, 126, and 169, even if these congeners were not isolated from the bulk of PCBs.

Abstract
Atmospheric particles were collected with a high-volume sampling system at an urban site in Helsinki (Finland). The samples were analysed by on-line coupled supercritical fluid extraction-liquid chromatography-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SFE-LC-GC-MS). The aerosol sample was first extracted by SFE. The extract was then transferred to a liquid chromatograph where it was fractionated into four fractions according to polarity. Each fraction from the liquid chromatograph was transferred to a gas chromatograph by large-volume injection, where final separation was carried out. The first LC fraction (280 microl) contained nonpolar compounds, such as n-alkanes, hopanes and steranes. The second fraction (840 microl) included polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and alkyl-PAHs, while the third and fourth fractions (840 microl each) contained more polar compounds, such as n-alkan-2-ones, n-alkanals, oxy-PAHs and quinones.

Abstract
Pressurized hot liquid water and steam were used to investigate the possibilities of extracting insecticides (carbofuran, carbosulfan, and imidacloprid) from contaminated process dust remaining from seed-pellet production. Extraction temperature was the most important parameter in influencing the extraction efficiency and rate of extraction, while varying the pressure had no profound effect. A clean-up procedure of the water extracts using solid phase extraction (SPE) was found to be necessary prior to final analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Quantitative extraction (compared to a validated organic solvent extraction method) of imidacloprid was obtained at temperatures of 100-150 degrees C within 30 min extraction time. Temperatures above 150 degrees C were required to extract carbofuran efficiently. The most non-polar analyte of the investigated compounds, carbosulfan, gave no detectable concentrations with pressurized hot water extraction (PHWE). One reason might be its low solubility in water, and when attempts are made to increase its solubility by increasing the temperature it may degrade to carbofuran. This can explain recovery values above 100% for carbofuran at higher temperatures. A comparison of the PHWE results and those obtained with supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) revealed that PHWE is advantageous for polar compounds, where the solubility of the analyte in water is high enough that lower temperatures can be used. For non-polar compounds carbon dioxide based extraction is preferred unless the target analyte is highly thermostable.

Abstract
The importance of sample preparation methods as the first stage in an analytical procedure is emphasised and examined. Examples are given of the extraction and concentration of analytes from solid, liquid and gas phase matrices, including solvent phase extractions, such as supercritical fluids and superheated water extraction, solid-phase extraction and solid-phase microextraction, headspace analysis and vapour trapping. The potential role of selective extraction methods, including molecular imprinted phases and affinity columns, are considered. For problem samples alternative approaches, such as derivatisation are discussed, and potential new approaches minimising sample preparation are noted.

Abstract
Pressurised hot water extraction (PHWE) was coupled on-line with microporous membrane liquid-liquid extraction (MMLLE) and gas chromatography (GC) in the analysis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) compounds in soil. The MMLLE serves as a trapping device after the PHWE. Water from PHWE is directed to the donor side of the membrane unit and the analytes are extracted to the acceptor solution on the other side of the membrane. The role of MMLLE is to clean and concentrate the extract, which is then transferred on-line to the GC via a sample loop and an on-column interface using partially concurrent solvent evaporation. Separate optimisation of MMLLE and simulations of the PHWE-MMLLE connection were carried out before the actual on-line coupling. After optimisation of the whole on-line system, the efficiencies of the PHWE-MMLLE-GC and PHWE-solid-phase trap extractions were compared. The PHWE-MMLLE-GC method allowed on-line analysis of soil samples. The method was linear, with limits of detection in the range 0.05-0.13 ng and limits of quantification 0.65-1.66 microg g(-1). Comparison of the results with those obtained by other techniques confirmed the good performance.

Abstract
High performance liquid chromatography coupled with programmable fluorescence detection was employed for the determination of 15 priority pollutant polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PPPAHs) in water, sediment, and semipermeable membrane devices (SPMDs). Chromatographic separation using this analytical method facilitates selectivity, sensitivity (ppt levels), and can serve as a non-destructive technique for subsequent analysis by other chromatographic and spectroscopic techniques. Extraction and sample cleanup procedures were also developed for water, sediment, and SPMDs using various chromatographic and wet chemical methods. The focus of this publication is to examine the enrichment techniques and the analytical methodologies used in the isolation, characterization, and quantitation of 15 PPPAHs in different sample matrices.

Abstract
As the temperature of liquid water is raised under pressure, between 100 and 374 degrees C, the polarity decreases markedly and it can be used as an extraction solvent for a wide range of analytes. Most interest has been in its application for the determination of PAHs, PCBs, and pesticides from environmental samples, where it gives comparable results to Soxhlet extraction but more rapidly and without the use of significant volumes of organic solvents. Unlike SPE, n-alkanes are not extracted unless the pressure is reduced and steam is used. Other applications have included the extraction of essential oils from plant material where it preferentially extracts the economically more important oxygenated components compared to steam distillation. The aqueous extract has been concentrated in a number of different methods (solvent extraction, SPE, SPME, extraction disc) or the extraction can be linked on-line to LC or GC. In many cases the superheated water extraction is cleaner, faster and cheaper than the conventional extraction methods.

Abstract
This review updates our knowledge about pressurised liquid extraction (PLE) and subcritical water extraction (SWE), two sample preparation techniques which are increasingly used for the extraction of moderately and non-volatile organic pollutants from a variety of solid and semi-solid environmental matrices. Parameters influencing the extraction yield and selectivity are discussed. The results deriving from the analysis of several different classes of compounds in a variety of matrices are compared with a reference method, e.g., Soxhlet extraction. PLE and SWE are both promising techniques due to the short extraction times and low solvent consumption. In addition, SWE offers a wide range of polarities by changing the temperature and can easily provide class-selective extraction by temperature programming and/or the addition of modifier(s). This indicates that, even though many applications have already been reported, more can be expected.

Abstract
We are reporting the results of a small-scale batch extraction with and without in situ wet oxidation of soils polluted with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) using subcritical water (liquid water at high temperatures and pressures but below the critical point as the removal agent). Two types of soil; one spiked with four PAHs, and an aged sample were used. Experiments were carried out in a 300 ml volume reactor in the batch mode. In each experiment, the reactor was filled with 45-50 g of soil and 200-220 ml of double distilled water. For extraction without oxidation, the reactor was pressurized with nitrogen, while for those with the oxidation, an oxidizing agent (air, oxygen or hydrogen peroxide) was used. The extraction only experiments were carried out at 230, 250 and 270 degrees C for spiked soil samples, and at 250 degrees C for aged soil samples, while all of the combined extraction and oxidation experiments were carried out at 250 degrees C. Removal of PAHs from spiked soil in extraction-only experiments was from 79 to 99+% depending on the molecular weight of the PAH. This was in the range of 99.1% to excess of 99.99% for the combined extraction and oxidation. While 28-100% of extracted PAHs can be found in water phase in case of extraction alone, this reduces to a maximum of 10% if the extraction is combined with oxidation. With aged soil similar or comparable results were obtained. Based on these results, extraction with hot water, if combined with oxidation, would probably reduce the cost of post treatment for the water and can be used as a feasible alternative technique for remediation of contaminated soils and sediments.

Abstract
Pressurised hot water extraction (PHWE) was coupled on-line with liquid chromatography-gas chromatography (LC-GC) to determine brominated flame retardants in sediment samples. After extraction with pressurised hot water the analytes were adsorbed in a solid-phase trap. The trap was dried with nitrogen and the analytes were eluted to the LC column, where the extract was cleaned, concentrated and fractionated before transfer to the GC system. The fraction containing the brominated flame retardants was transferred to the GC system via an on-column interface. The PHWE-LC-GC method was linear from 0.0125 to 2.5 microg with limits of detection in the range 0.70-1.41 ng/g and limits of quantification 6.16-12.33 ng/g.

Abstract
The determination of the levels of pesticides in food products has prompted the development of sensitive and rapid methods of analysis that are solvent-free or utilize solvents that are benign to the environment and laboratory worker. In this study we have developed a novel extraction method that utilizes ethanol-modified subcritical water in combination with solid-phase microextraction (SPME) for the removal of atrazine from beef kidney. In situ sample cleanup was achieved using the technique of matrix solid-phase dispersion. A cross-linked polymer, XAD-7 HP, was utilized as a dispersing material for kidney samples. Subcritical water extractions were performed with a pressurized solvent extraction unit at 100 degrees C and 50 atm. Experimental parameters investigated were the volume of solvent and amount of modifier required for the complete extraction of atrazine and optimization of the extraction time. It was determined that 30% ethanol in water (v/v) is adequate for the complete extraction of atrazine. A Carbowax-divinylbenzene SPME fiber was used to sample the aqueous extracts. Analysis of the fiber contents was by ion-trap GC/MS utilizing the single ion mode. The total time of analysis for a single kidney sample is 90 min. The average percent recoveries from samples spiked to the concentrations of 2 and 0.2 microg/g were 104 and 111, respectively. The average relative standard deviations were 10 and 9, respectively. The method limit of detection for beef kidney spiked with atrazine was found to be 20 ng/g of sample.

Abstract
Solubility measurements in pure and modified water serve as a basis for optimizing the subcritical water extraction of target analytes such as food contaminants. The solvent strength of the water is affected by both the system's temperature and the amount and type of cosolvent modifier that is added to the water, which causes a reduction in the dielectric constant of water. In the present work, the solubilities of the triazine pesticides atrazine, cyanazine, and simazine were measured in pure and modified water at temperatures ranging from 50 to 125 degrees C and at a pressure of 50 atm. The solubility data were obtained using a static solubility apparatus with on-line liquid chromatographic (LC) detection. By increasing the temperature of the water, the solubilities of the triazine pesticides increased approximately 3-fold in pure water for each 25 degrees C temperature increment. Cyanazine was 5 times more soluble than atrazine and an order of magnitude more soluble than simazine at 100 degrees C. The solubility of atrazine was also measured in ambient and hot water modified with ethanol and urea. At 100 degrees C, the solubility of atrazine is doubled when the water is modified with urea, and is increased over an order of magnitude when ethanol is used as modifier. The data, therefore, indicate that adding a cosolvent to water in addition to increasing the system temperature increases the solubilities of triazine pesticides in subcritical water. It was further determined that the solutes do not thermally degrade or hydrolyze at the temperatures reported in this study.
