Analysis of phenols in wastewater using capillary electrophoresis and solid phase extraction
A solid phase extraction (SPE) method was developed for phenol, 4-nitrophenol, 4-chlorophenol and 4-cyanophenol from the wastewater. The recoveries were 95%, 93%, 92% and 90% for phenol, 4-nitrophenol, 4-chlorophenol and 4-cyanophenol, respectively. The elution was carried out by methanol (1 mL) at 0.25 mL/min. flow rate. The optimisation of SPE was achieved by using different eluting solvents, ...

Determination of Pesticide Residues in Oranges by an Automated QuEChERS Extraction
Abstract With the rise in popularity of QuEChERS, due to its reliable multiresidue methods it has driven the need for automation of the QuEChERS extraction to increase productivity and throughput. The AutoMateQ40 streamlines the QuEChERS method from adding Acetonitrile (ACN) and buffering salts, shaking, mixing, centrifugating the sample, transferring to a dispersive solid phase extraction ...

Proficiency test of non-target screening with gas chromatography mass spectrometry to confirm a detected contamination of raw and drinking water
Much of the water supply industry has implemented online monitoring and warning systems for chemical or biological contaminations. When a contamination is detected, further investigations are necessary to confirm or to cancel the initial alarm. The proficiency of a non-target screening approach with solid phase extraction and GCMS in full-scan mode was examined. A selection of pesticides and ...

Uptake of perfluoroalkyl acids in the leaves of coniferous and deciduous broad‐leaved trees
Analytical methods for determining perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs) in leaves were developed to quantify a suite of analytes in both coniferous and deciduous broad‐leaved trees. Sodium hydroxide‐methanol and solid‐phase extraction was selected as extracting and cleaned‐up strategy for PFAAs analysis. Ten perfluorocarboxylic acids (PFCAs) and four perfluorosulfonic acids (PFSAs) were monitored in ...

Solid Phase Extraction of Pesticides from Fruits and Vegetables, for Analysis by GC or HPLC
Recovery rates for polar analytes, including carbamate and thiourea pesticides, are higher and less variable with ENVI-Carb carbon-based solid phase extraction tubes than with C8- or C18- silica-based tubes. Independent investigators found ENVI-Carb tubes to be an effective part of sample cleanup for more than 200 organochlorine, organophosphorus, nitrogen-containing, and carbamate pesticides, ...

How to Choose the Best Vacuum Pump for Your Lab
Vacuum pumps are a versatile piece of laboratory equipment for suctioning via negative pressure. They are routinely used in biological sciences for filtration, distillation and concentration of volatile solvents, solid phase extraction, freeze drying, and more. Even though vacuum pumps share a common function, there are many considerations to take into account when choosing a new pump. The ...

Solid phase extraction of trace amounts of cadmium(II) ions in water and food samples using iron magnetite nanoparticles modified by sodium dodecyl sulfate and 2-mercaptobenzothiazole
A new, simple and rapid method for solid phase extraction and preconcentration of trace amounts of cadmium ions using 2-mercaptobenzothiazole/sodium dodecyl sulfate immobilized on magnetite nanoparticles (MBT-SDS-MNPs) was proposed. The method is based on the extraction of cadmium ions via complexation with MBT immobilized on SDS-coated MNPs and their determination by flame atomic absorption ...

Determination of toxic heavy metals in sea water by FAAS after preconcentration with a novel chelating resin
A solid phase extraction procedure was developed for preconcentration of toxic heavy metals such as cadmium, cobalt, copper, manganese, lead and zinc in sea water samples. A microcolumn packed with 6-[(4-hydroxyphenyl)diazenyl]naphthalene-2,3-diol-formaldehyde (HPDN-F) resin acts as a sorbent to retain the analyte ions by forming metal chelates. The retained trace level metal was subsequently ...

Cleanup of Hazardous Waste Site Samples by Solid Phase Extraction
ENVI-Florisil solid phase extraction tubes meet the requirements for pesticide recovery from water, sediment, and soil samples taken from hazardous waste sites, as described in US EPA Contract Laboratory Program methodology. Mean recovery of nine pesticides was 82% or better, well within the specifications of the CLP method. A procedure for recovering the pesticides is described. ...

Determination of Pesticide Residues in Tea by an Automated QuEChERS Solution
Abstract The QuEChERS (Quick-Easy-Cheap-Effective-Rugged-Safe) sample extraction method was developed for the determination of pesticide residues in agricultural commodities. While originally QuEChERS has been developed for plant matrices the technique has since been adapted to be used in several applications and in many additional matrices such as dry tea samples. With the rise in popularity of ...

GC-MS/MS Analysis of Pesticides in Drinking Water
According to Japan’s list of drinking water quality control substances, pesticides are included as supplemental items subject to analysis. Designed to complement the standards, the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare encourages water utilities to monitor pesticide levels and achieve specified targets. Among the 102 listed pesticides, 84 are simultaneously analyzed using solid-phase ...

Solid-phase extraction of room-temperature imidazolium ionic liquids
Abstract Owing to their favorable properties, ionic liquids have recently gained recognition as possibly environmentally benign solvents. Now among the most promising industrial chemicals, they have already been labeled 'green' but this appellation seems due entirely to their very low vapor pressure. This growing interest in the various applications of ionic liquids will soon result in ...

A colorimetric microwell method for determining bromide concentrations
Bromide is commonly used as a tracer in studies of water and chemical transport in soil and rock because it is relatively nonreactive with soil and rock constituents and because of its low environmental background concentrations. Based on a largely ignored modification of an American Public Health Association standard colorimetric method for determining Br– using phenol red and chloramine-T(CT), ...

Analysis of Multi-Pesticide Residues in Vegetables, Food, and Fruits by SPE/GC-MS
Cleanup of matrices is the first, the most important, and the most critical step for both broad-spectrum screening and accurate determination of pesticides and their metabolites in vegetables,meats, drinks and fruits. In most cases, solid phase extraction (SPE) methods are used to clean up the extracts before the GC-MS analysis. The ideal SPE material(s) should remove the greatest number of food ...

Ecotoxicity Assessment of Landfill Leachates using a Battery of Bioassay and Toxicity Characterization of the Leachates
Abstract : The western part of Teshima Island in the Seto Inland Sea (Japan) had been used as an illegal dumping ground for more than 10 years and the accumulated waste was estimated to be about 510.000 tons. There has been no systematic toxicity assessment conducted on this waste. In this study, a battery of bioassays was applied to the collected leachates. Toxicity of the leachates was ...
