We have developed an analytical method for the determination of urinary 5-chloro-2-(2,4-dichlorophenoxy)phenol (triclosan), which utilizes stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) and thermal desorption (TD)-gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Human urine sample is de-conjugated by treatment with beta-glucuronidase and sulfatase. A stir bar coated with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is added to the urine sample in a vial and the sample is stirred for 60 min at room temperature (25 degrees C). Then, the PDMS stir bar is subjected to TD-GC-MS. The detection limit of triclosan is 0.05 ng mL(-1). The method shows linearity over the calibration range (0.1-10 ng mL(-1)) and the correlation coefficient (r) is higher than 0.993 for triclosan standard solution. The average recoveries of triclosan in human urine sample are 102.8-113.1% (RSD: 2.4-6.7%). This simple, sensitive, and selective analytical method may be used in the determination of trace amounts of triclosan in human urine samples.

3D printing is an additive manufacturing technology based on digital model files. 3D printing has become a popular manufacturing tool in various fields. Stereolithography offers a series of advantages compared to its counterparts, such as smooth prints, appropriate resolution in all the axes, acceptable organic solvent compatibility and sufficient tightness to the flowing of solutions/solvents at moderate/high pressure.

Background: Edible oils are susceptible to contamination with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) throughout production, storage, and transportation processes due to their lipophilic nature. The necessity of quantifying PAHs present in complex oil matrices at trace levels, which bind strongly to impurities in oil matrices, poses a major challenge to the accurate quantification of these contaminants. Therefore, the development of straightforward and effective methods for the separation and enrichment of PAHs in oil samples prior to instrumental analysis is paramount to guaranteeing food safety.

Although vinegar is a product obtained by a well-known bioprocess from a technical point of view, the complex microbiota responsible for its production and their involvement in the organoleptic profiles are not clear yet. In this work, three acetification profiles in submerged culture using both synthetic and raw materials from Andalusia (Spain) were characterized by metagenomic (16S rRNA amplicon sequencing) and metabolomic tools (stir-bar sorptive extraction with thermo-desorption coupled to gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (SBSE-TD-GC-MS) and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)). A total of 29 phyla, 208 families, and many more genera were identified, comprising bacteria and archaea as well as 75 metabolites, including minor volatile compounds, amino acids, biogenic amines, and other nitrogenous compounds.

In this study, a novel imidazolium-based ionic liquid (IL) coating was developed for stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) using a sol-gel method. The effects of different counterions, conditioning temperatures and polymer compositions were investigated. The stir bar with bis((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl) amide 1-butyl-3-(3-(triethoxysilyl)propyl)-1H-imidazol-3-ium showed good mechanical and thermal stability with high resistance to water solubilization.

A covalent organic framework (COF) based on imine was synthesized using 2,5-dihexoxyterephthalaldehyde (DHT) and 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenyl) benzene (TAPB) as starting materials. The TAPB-DHT-COF exhibited satisfactory chemical stability, making it a promising adsorbing material for stir bar sorptive extraction (SBSE) of four estrogens, including estrone (E1), β-estradiol (E2), hexestrol (HES), and mestranol (MeEE2), in ambient water samples. The extracted analytes were subsequently analyzed using a high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector (HPLC-DAD).
