Facile fabrication and application of poly(ortho-phenetidine) nanocomposite coating for solid-phase microextraction of carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons from wastewaters.

The waters and wastewaters around industrial areas are heavily polluted and have adverse effects on the ecosystems. The present study is mainly focused on the electropolymerization of ortho-phenetidine and co-deposited on a steel wire along with graphene oxide nanosheets as a novel coating for solid-phase microextraction of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) from aqueous media prior to gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. PAHs are composed of multiple aromatic rings which have been linked to skin, lung, bladder and liver.

Preparation of polypyrrole/nanosilica composite for solid-phase microextraction of bisphenol and phthalates migrated from containers to eye drops and injection solutions.

This paper describes the electrodeposition of polyphosphate-doped polypyrrole/nanosilica nanocomposite coating on steel wire for direct solid-phase microextraction of bisphenol A and five phthalates. We optimized influencing parameters on the extraction efficiency and morphology of the nanocomposite such as deposition potential, concentration of pyrrole and polyphosphate, deposition time and the nanosilica amount. Under the optimized conditions, characterization of the nanocomposite was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy.

Preparation and Application of Nanostructure Ion-Imprinted Polymer for Selective Solid-Phase Extraction of Pb Ions in Water, Hair, and Food Samples.

In this research, nanostructure Pb(II) ion-imprinted polymer (IIP) was prepared by formation of 1,5-diphenylthiocarbazon (dithizone) complex. Polymerization was performed via bulk polymerization, with methacrylic acid as the functional monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate as the cross-linking monomer in the presence of ammonium persulfate as the initiator. To characterize the synthesized IIP, FTIR spectroscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy were used.

Poly(o-anisidine)/graphene oxide nanosheets composite as a coating for the headspace solid-phase microextraction of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes.

A poly(o-anisidine)/graphene oxide nanosheets (PoA/GONSs) coating is fabricated by a simple and efficient electrochemical deposition method on steel wire. The incorporation of PoA and GONSs allows preparing a nanocomposite that can successfully integrate the advantages of both. Then, the prepared fiber is applied to the headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) and gas chromatographic analysis of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and xylenes.

Preparation and application of carbon nanotubes/poly(o-toluidine) composite fibers for the headspace solid-phase microextraction of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes.

A novel nanocomposite coating of poly(o-toluidine) and oxidized multiwalled CNTs (MWCNTs, where CNTs is carbon nanotubes) was electrochemically prepared on a stainless-steel wire. The applicability of the fiber was assessed for the headspace solid-phase microextraction of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes in aqueous samples followed by GC with flame ionization detection. In order to obtain an adherent and stable composite coating, several experimental parameters related to the coating process, such as polymerization potential and time, and the concentration of o-toluidine and oxidized MWCNTs were optimized.

A simple and rapid dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction based on solidification of floating organic drop method combined with flame atomic absorption spectrometry for preconcentration and determination of copper.

A simple and rapid dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction based on solidification of floating organic drop method prior to flame atomic absorption spectrometry was developed for preconcentration and determination of copper. In this technique, simultaneous complex formation and extraction was performed with rapid injection of a mixture containing ethanol, 1-undecanol, and 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol into a water sample spiked with Cu(II). After centrifugation, the test tube was cooled in an ice bath, and solidified extract transferred into a conical vial.

Determination of the isoflavone genistein in soybeans by high-performance liquid chromatography following cloud point extraction.

A simple and sensitive method has been developed for preconcentration and determination of genistein in soybeans. This method is based on cloud point extraction (CPE) of genistein from soybeans using ethylene glycol monoalkyl ether (Genapol X-080) as a nonionic surfactant. The concentration of extracted genistein was determined by HPLC with a UV detector.

Simultaneous separation/preconcentration of ultra trace heavy metals in industrial wastewaters by dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction based on solidification of floating organic drop prior to determination by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry.

In the present work, an efficient microextraction method was applied to separation and preconcentration of Ni(II), Co(II), Pb(II) and Cr(III). This method is dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction based on solidification of floating organic drop, which overcomes the most important problems of each aforementioned technique. The influences of analytical parameters, including pH, extraction solvent volume, disperser solvent type and its volume, concentration of chelating agent, salt effect and extraction time on the quantitative recoveries of nickel, cobalt, lead and chromium ions were investigated.
