[Simultaneous determination of 21 perfluorinated and polyfluoroalkyl substances in plant oils by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-triple quadrupole mass spectrometry].

Edible plant oils are a key component of the daily human diet, and the quality and safety of plant oils are related to human health. Perfluorinated and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) are pollutants that can contaminate plant oil through the processing of raw materials or exposure to materials containing these substances. Thus, establishing a sensitive and accurate analytical method for the determination of PFASs is critical for ensuring the safety of plant oils.

Enantioseletive bioaccumulation and metabolization of diniconazole in earthworms (Eiseniafetida) in an artificial soil.

Degradation and enantioselective bioaccumulation of diniconazole in earthworms (Eiseniafetida) in artificial soil was investigated using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) method under laboratory condition. Three exposure concentrations (1 mg/kg, 10 mg/kg and 25 mg/kg) of diniconazole in soil (dry weight) to earthworms were used. The uptake kinetics fitted the first-order kinetics well.

Enantioselective bioaccumulation of diniconazole in Tenebrio molitor larvae.

The enantioselective bioaccumulation of diniconazole in Tenebrio molitor Linne larva was investigated with liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry based on the ChiralcelOD-3R[cellulose tri-(3,5-dimethylphenyl carbamate)] column. In this study we documented the effects of dietary supplementation with wheat bran contaminated by racemic diniconazole at two dose levels of 20 mg kg(-1) and 2 mg kg(-1) (dry weight) in Tenebrio molitor. The results showed that both doses of diniconazole were taken up by Tenebrio molitor rapidly in the first few days, the concentrations of R-enantiomer and S-enantiomer at high doses reached the highest level of 0.

The enantioselective pharmacokinetics metabolism of diniconazole in quail (Coturnix coturnixs japonica).

The pharmacokinetics of diniconazole enantiomers in quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) were investigated by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Quails were exposed to racemic diniconazole in capsule by oral at dose of 10 mg/kg (body weight). The maximal concentrations observed in blood, heart, liver, and kidney were 3.

Capillary electrophoretic fingerprint investigation of gel pen inks.

In this study, two capillary electrophoresis modes, capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) and micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC), were employed for the examination of gel ink fingerprints. The optimized CZE conditions were as follows: running buffer, 0.2M boric acid and 0.

Determination and safety evaluation of difenoconazole residues in apples and soils.

Difenoconazole was a triazole fungicide with proven bio-efficacy which leads to morphological and functional changes in the fungal cell membrane. In this work, field trials were conducted in three apple orchards. Sampling methods were improved in both the terminal residual and dissipation experiments.

Citrinin selective molecularly imprinted polymers for SPE.

Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) for citrinin (Cit) with 1-hydroxy-2-naphthoic acid (HNA) as mimic template were prepared and the molecularly imprinted SPE method was developed for the detection of Cit in rice with HPLC. The adsorption properties of HNA and Cit on the MIPs and nonimprinted polymers were investigated. It proved that MIPs showed higher selectivity adsorption to HNA and Cit than nonimprinted polymers were.

The study of the interactions between heavy metals with sulfonylurea herbicides using ACE.

The affinity capillary electrophoresis method was used in the study of interactions between heavy metals (Pb, Mn, La, Cd, and Ni) and the sulfonylurea herbicides (thifensulfuron, nicosulfuron and sulfometuron). A buffer of 50 mM acetate (pH 5.85) was employed in the study.

Ultra-high concentration of amylose for chiral separations in capillary electrophoresis.

In the present study, a capillary electrophoresis method using high concentration of amylose solutions as separation medium has been developed with the aid of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) as co-solvent. The best buffer conditions for primaquine, trihexyphenidyl (THP), sulconazole and cetirizine enantiomers were optimized as 20mM sodium phosphate buffer with DMSO/water (40/60, v/v) as solvent at a pH of 3.0, containing 10% (w/v) amylose.

Enantioseparation of esbiothrin by cyclodextrin-modified microemulsion and micellar electrokinetic chromatography.

A comparison between chiral cyclodextrin-modified microemulsion electrokinetic chromatography (CD-MEEKC) and cyclodextrin-modified micellar electrokinetic chromatography (CD-MEKC) for the enantiomeric separation of esbiothrin was carried out. For both methods, the separation conditions were optimized by varying CD types and concentration, running buffer pH and compositions, organic modifiers, and temperature. The optimal CD-MEEKC conditions were 0.

Simultaneous determination of inorganic anions and cations in explosive residues by ion chromatography.

A non-suppressed ion chromatographic method by connecting anion-exchange and cation-exchange columns directly was developed for the separation and determination of five inorganic anions (sulfate, nitrate, chloride, nitrite, and chlorate) and three cations (sodium, ammonium, and potassium) simultaneously in explosive residues. The mobile phase was composed of 3.5mM phthalic acid with 2% acetonitrile and water at flow rate of 0.
