Important parameters, such as the sample pH, the concentration and volume of eluent, sample flow rate and volume, and interference of coexisting ions, were investigated. The obtained results indicated that proposed method possessed an excellent analytical performance. The linear range, the detection limit, and precison (RSD) were 1–100 ng/mL (R(2) = 0.9993), 0.32 ng/mL and 2.88%, respectively. The results showed that copper could be adsorbed quantitatively on the pretreated MWCNTs with potassium permanganate, and proposed method was very useful in the monitoring of copper in the environment.展开更多

The MWCNTs were oxidized by potassium permanganate under appropriate conditions before use as preconcentration packing. Parameters influencing the recoveries of target analytes were optimized. Under optimal conditions, the target analyte exhibited a good linearity (R^2=0.9992) over the concentration range 0.5-50 ng/ml. The detection limit and precision of the proposed method were 0.15 ng/ml and 2.06%, respectively. The proposed method was applied to the determination of cadmium in real-world environmental samples and the recoveries were in the range of 91.3%-108.0%. All these experimental results indicated that this new procedure could be applied to the determination of trace cadmium in environmental waters.展开更多

Anilines were extracted onto OMWCNT disk and then determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with UV detector. Several parameters on the recovery of the analytes were investigated. The experimental results showed that it was possible to obtain quantitative analysis when the solution pH was 8 using 200 mL of validation solution containing 2 ug of anilines and 10 mL of acetonitrile/ethanol (8/2, v/v) as an eluent. Relative standard deviations for five determinations were 7.5% (2-NA), 6.5% (4-NA) and 3.8% (2,4-DCA) under optimum conditions. The linear range of calibration curves were 0.5 ng.mL 1 to 15 ng.mL-1 for each analyte with good correlation coefficients. The detection limits (3S/N) of 2-NA, 4-NA and 31 pg.mL -1 and 26 pg.mL-1 was successfully applied to 2,4-DCA were 30pg.mL -1, respectively. Our method the determination of aniline compounds in fiver water sample with high precision and accuracy.展开更多

In this study, two important auxins were selected as model analytes, namely indole-3- butyric acid (IBA) and 1-naphthylacetic acid (NAA). They could be extracted and concentrated due to their π-π stacking interactions with MWCNT. Then HPLC-UV was introduced to detect IBA and NAA after sample pretreatment. Factors that may affect the enrichment efficiency were investigated and optimized. Comparative studies showed that MWCNT was superior to CI 8 for the extraction of the two analytes. Validation experiments showed that the optimized method had good linearity (0.9998 and 0.9960), high recovery (81.4%-85.4%), and low detection limits (0.0030 mg/L and 0.0012 mg/L). The results indicated that the novel method had advantages of convenience, good sensitivity, high efficiency, and it was feasible for the determination of auxins in plant samples.展开更多

The resulting magnetic MOF-5-derived porous carbon (Fe304@MOF-5-C) was then used for the magnetic solid-phase extraction of chlorophenols (CPs) from mushroom samples prior to high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and N2 adsorption were used to characterize the adsorbent. After experimental optimization, the amount of the adsorbent was chosen as 8.0 mg, extraction time as 10 min, sample volume as 50 mL, desorption solvent as 0.4 mL (0.2 mL × 2) of alkaline methanol, and sample pH as 6. Under the above optimized conditions, good linearity for the analytes was obtained in the range of 0.8-100.0 ng g 1 with the correlation coefficients between 0.9923 and 0.9963. The limits of detection (SIN= 3) were in the range of 0.25-0.30 ng g-1, and the relative standard deviations were below 6.8%. The result showed that the Fe304@MOF-5-C has an excellent adsorption capacity for the analytes.展开更多

The four aromatic acids could be directly captured by g-C3N4@SiO2 from CW samples within 5 rain. Thus, a rapid, simple and effective method for the analy- sis of four aromatic acids in CW samples was developed by coupling g-C3N4@SiO2-based SPE with high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet(HPLC-UV) detection. The linearity of the developed method was in the range of 20--1000 ng/mL and its limit of detection was in the range of 1.9--5.7 ng/mL, which were signi- ficantly lower than those of the reported similar methods. The intra-day and inter-day precisions(based on the relative standard deviation, n=3) of the four aromatic acids were under 9.5% and 10.4%, respectively. The developed method was applied to determining the four aromatic acids in real CW samples and the spiked recoveries varied from 81.1% to 121.8%.展开更多

Copper was used as a solid support, which was at first coated by 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysi- lane. A stationary phase of oxidized multi walled carbon nanotube (MWCNTs)) was bonded to the surface of the copper wire. The developed SPME was characterized by IR and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and coupled to gas chromatography for separation of the analytes. Stability of the fiber, the effect of coating thickness and recovery time were optimized. The MWCNTs film thickness was about 5 μm which was perfect for a rapid mass transfer. The detection limits were at the range of 0.005 to 0.1 μg·L<sup>-1</sup>. The calibration curves were linear R<sup>2</sup> > 0.9813 in the range of 0.01 to 5 μg·L<sup>-1</sup>. The method has been successfully applied for real samples with standard addition of 5 μL<sup>-1</sup> of each sample. Stability study of the fiber to acid and alkali shows that it can be used for more than 50 times.展开更多
