Novel phenazine-based microporous organic network for selective and sensitive determination of trace sulfonamides in milk samples.

Background: Sulfonamide (SA) residues in food of animal origin possess a potential threat to human health and environment. However, due to the polar and ionic characteristics and trace level of SAs and the complexity of food matrices, direct measurement of SAs in these samples is still very difficult. Development of efficient sample pretreatment method for sensitive and selective extraction of trace SAs is of great significance and urgently desired.

A national-scale characterization of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in intertidal sediment of China: Occurrence, fate and influential factors.

Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) have been restricted for application for about 30 years in China. Intertidal zone is a sink for anthropogenic pollutants, and to better understand the current pollution status of OCPs in China, 324 surface sediment samples collected from 14 typical intertidal zones of China were analyzed for 22 OCPs. The total concentrations of OCPs ranged from 0.
