In this study, a novel monolithic capillary column based on a NH2-MIL-53(Al) metal–organic framework (MOF) incorporated in poly (3-acrylamidophenylboronic acid/methacrylic acid-co-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) (poly (AAPBA/MAA-co-EGDMA)) was prepared using an in situ polymerization method. The characteristics of the MOF-polymer monolithic column were investigated by scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometry, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, and thermogravimetric analysis. The prepared MOF-polymer monolithic column showed good permeability, high extraction efficiency, chemical stability, and good reproducibility. The MOF-polymer monolithic column was used for in-tube solid-phase microextraction (SPME) to efficiently adsorb trace sulfonamides from food samples. A novel method combining MOF-polymer-monolithic-column-based SPME with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) was successfully developed. The linear range was from 0.015 to 25.0 µg/L, with low limits of detection of 1.3–4.7 ng/L and relative standard deviations (RSDs) of < 6.1%. Eight trace sulfonamides in fish and chicken samples were determined, with recoveries of the eight analytes ranging from 85.7% to 113% and acceptable RSDs of < 7.3%. These results demonstrate that the novel MOF-polymer-monolithic-column-based SPME coupled with UHPLC-MS/MS is a highly sensitive, practical, and convenient method for monitoring trace sulfonamides in food samples previously extracted with an adequate solvent.

In this work, we present novel kinds of γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-NH2-CMC/MOF5 and γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-NH2-CMC/IRMOF3 magnetic metal–organic framework (MOF) nanoparticles which possess both magnetic characteristics and fluorescent properties. Here, [Zn4O(bdc)3] (MOF-5, bdc=1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) is a kind of shell. IRMOF3, a known MOF with a cubic topology prepared from Zn(NO3)2⋅4H2O and 2-amino-1,4-benzene dicarboxylic acid, is another kind of shell which is attractive due to its highly porous, crystalline structure and the presence of non-coordinating amino groups on the benzenedicarboxylate (bdc) linker, which are amenable to post-synthetic modification. γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-NH2-CMC magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) could be prepared by covalent modification of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC). The structure of γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles could be determined by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra could be used for the characterisation of γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-NH2, γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-NH2-CMC, γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-NH2-CMC/MOF5, and γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-NH2-CMC/IRMOF3 nanoparticles. Magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) of enrofloxacin (Enr) experiments exhibited that, for γ-Fe2O3@SiO2-NH2-CMC/IRMOF3, the best effects of adsorption could be obtained at pH 4 and 6, while elution conditions of 0.1mol L−1 NaOH and 1% sodium dodecyl sulfate could achieve the best elution effect. The addition of Tb3+ ions could sensitise the fluorescence of Enr. At the same time, via the addition of Tb3+ ions, coordination could occur between nanoparticles and Tb3+ ions, which could be verified by XPS.

Chlorophenoxy acid herbicides (CAHs), which are widely used on cereal crops, have become an important pollution source in grains. In this work, a highly hydrophobic poly (octadecyl methacrylate-co-trimethylolpropane trimethacrylate) [poly (OMA-co-TRIM)] monolithic column has been specially prepared for hydrophobic in-tube solid-phase microextraction (SPME) of CAHs in rice grains. Due to the hydrophobicity of CAHs in acid conditions, trace CAHs could be efficiently extracted by the prepared monolith with strong hydrophobic interaction. Several factors for online hydrophobic in-tube SPME, including the length of the monolithic column, ACN and trifluoroacetic acid percentage in the sampling solution, elution volume, and elution flow rate, were investigated with respect to the extraction efficiencies of CAHs. Under the optimized conditions, the limits of detection of the four CAHs fell in the range of 0.9–2.1 μg/kg. The calibration curves provided a wide linear range of 5–600 μg/kg and showed good linearity. The recoveries of this method ranged from 87.3% to 111.6%, with relative standard deviations less than 7.3%. Using this novel, highly hydrophobic poly (OMA-co-TRIM) monolith as sorbent, a simple and sensitive online in-tube SPME-HPLC method was proposed for analysis of CAHs residue in practical samples of rice grains.

AbstractThe main objective of this study was to develop an ultrasound-assisted dispersive solid-phase microextraction (UADSPME) method for separation and preconcentration of tellurium (Te) and thallium (Tl) in environmental samples prior to inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry determination. The MPC@SiO2@Fe3O4 nanocomposite was used as a nanoadsorbent in the UADSPME method. The nanocomposite was prepared using a coprecipitation and sol–gel method, and it was characterized using scanning electron microscopy/energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and X-ray powder diffraction techniques. The Box–Behnken design and response surface methodology were used for the optimization of experimental parameters (such as pH, extraction time and mass of adsorbent) affecting the preconcentration procedure. Under optimized conditions, the limits of detection were 0.05 and 0.02 µg L−1 and the limits of quantification were 0.17 and 0.07 µg L−1 for Te and Tl, respectively. The precision expressed as the relative standard deviation (%RSD) was 2.5% and 2.8% for Te and Tl, respectively. Finally, the developed method was applied for the analysis of Tl and Te in real samples.

Carbonized aramid fiber was prepared as a new type of adsorbent for in-tube solid-phase microextraction. The surface structure, chemical composition, and graphitization degree of the resulted fiber was determined and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Raman spectrometry. The prepared fiber was packed in a stainless-steel tube instead of the sample loop of a six-port and tested for the extraction of five environmental estrogen hormones coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography. Several parameters affecting the estrogens’ extraction including the sampling volume, sampling rate, NaCl content, and desorption time were investigated in detail. The extraction tube with carbonized aramid fiber exhibited remarkable extraction performance towards five estrogen targets. The analysis method was established, and it exhibited a wide linear range (0.5–10.0 μg/L) with good linearity (correlation coefficient ≥0.9906), low limits of detection (0.011–0.13 μg/L), and high enrichment factors (178–1335) for the five analytes. Relative standard deviations (n = 3) for intraday (≤4.8%) and interday (≤4.0%) tests indicated that the extraction material had satisfactory repeatability. Bisphenol A released from a polycarbonate (PC) bottle was quantitatively detected with a concentration of 8.3 μg/L. The relative recoveries spiked at 5 and 10 μg/L were investigated, and the results were in the range of 74.3–121% for real water samples.

Abstract Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) was supported on graphene oxide (GO) by hydrothermal method. The resulting nanocomposite (MoS2-rGO) was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The experiments show that at pH 2, MoS2-rGO has a great affinity for adsorption of hexavalent chromium ions while Cr(III) ions remain in aqueous sample. In the adsorption process, the dominant role plays chemisorption. The determined adsorption capacity is 583.5 mg g−1. Parameters affecting the extraction process, namely sample pH, sample volume, contact time, and matrix ions, were investigated by sequential batch tests. Under optimal conditions (pH 2, sample volume 50 mL, sonication time 10 min, adsorbent mass 1 mg), the calibration curve covers the 1–200 ng mL−1 range with a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.998. The recovery of the method is 97 ± 3%. Other data of merit include a relative standard deviation of < 3.5%, enrichment factor of 3350, and detection limit of 0.050 ng mL−1. The accuracy of the method was confirmed by analysis of the reference materials QC1453 (chromium VI in drinking water) and QC3015 (chromium VI in seawater). The method was successfully applied to chromium speciation in water samples, including high salinity ones. The concentration of Cr(III) was calculated as the difference between the total concentration of chromium (after oxidation of Cr(III) to Cr(VI) with potassium permanganate) and the initial Cr(VI) content.
