Large-pore covalent organic framework as solid phase extraction absorbentforefficientdetermination of polypeptide antibiotics in animal-derived foods.

The precise determination of polypeptide antibiotics (PPTs) in foods has been always challenging because of the interference of various endogenous peptides in complex matrix. Herin, a novel large-pore covalent organic framework (TABPT-SPDA-COF) with accessible pore size of 7.9 nm was synthesized as a solid phase extraction (SPE) absorbent for efficiently enriching four PPTs existed in foods originating from animals.

Online solid-phase extraction based on size-controllable spherical covalent organic framework for efficient determination of polybrominated diphenyl ethers in foods.

An analytical method of microspheric brominated covalent organic framework (Br-COF)-online solid-phase extraction integrated with high-performance liquid chromatography (online SPE-HPLC) was proposed for efficiently enriching six polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in foods. The Br-COF microspheres were facilely prepared with uniformity and dispersion by a size-controllable synthesis at the room temperature. Attributed to multiple interactions of the halogen bonding, Van der Waals forces, hydrophobic interaction along with size-matching effect, Br-COF performed satisfactory extraction capacity for PBDEs compared with commercial adsorbents.
