Abstract
New cauliflower-like phloroglucinol-glyoxylic acid resin microspheres (PGRMs) with controllable diameters and tuneable surface roughness were prepared using a one-step environmentally-friendly method without a catalyst. The PGRMs obtained exhibited a rough surface, narrow size distribution, and excellent adsorption capacity for polar compounds. The PGRMs were employed as an adsorbent for solid phase extraction (SPE) of kinetin (KT) and 6-benzyladenine (6-BA) in cucumbers and demonstrated better extraction recoveries and purification efficiency than phloroglucin-formaldehyde resin and common commercial adsorbents. Our PGRMs-SPE-HPLC method showed good linearity (r ≥ 0.9997) ranging from 0.04 to 4.00 μg/g for KT and 6-BA, and recoveries at three spiked concentration ranged from 77.8% to 104.4% with RSDs ≤ 6.8%. This PGRMs-SPE-HPLC method was applied successfully to determine of KT and 6-BA in cucumbers.
