Analysis of polar triazines and degradation products in waters by in-tube solid-phase microextraction and capillary chromatography: an environmentally friendly method.

This paper describes a new method for the determination of polar triazines, including some degradation products, which combines online in-tube solid-phase microextraction (IT-SPME) and capillary liquid chromatography with UV-diode array detection (DAD). Different extractive coatings have been evaluated for IT-SPME, a capillary column with a polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) coating, and the same coating modified with carboxylated single-wall carbon nanotubes (c-SWCNTs) and carboxylated multiwall carbon nanotubes (c-MWCNTs). On the basis of the results obtained, a new method is presented for the identification and determination of triazines in water samples.
