A rapid solid-phase extraction and HPLC/DAD procedure for the simultaneous determination and quantification of different benzodiazepines in serum, blood and post-mortem blood.

A rapid and quantitative method for the determination of benzodiazepines using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with diode-array detection (DAD) is reported. The drugs were extracted from serum, blood or post-mortem blood using C18 extraction columns. Brotizolam was used as internal standard. Experiments with spiked serum/blood samples resulted in recoveries between 75% and 94% for all investigated benzodiazepines. Excellent linearity was obtained over the concentration range 5-1500 ng benzodiazepine/ml. The limit of detection was approximately 2 ng/ml. The detection of low therapeutic serum levels of highly potent benzodiazepines is also possible.

Solid-phase extraction of piribedil and its metabolites from plasma and urine without and after deconjugation, by high performance liquid chromatography.

A new high performance liquid chromatographic procedure has been developed for the simultaneous quantification of piribedil (PD) and its three main basic metabolites in rat plasma and urine, without and after hydrolysis. The procedure relies on isolation of the compounds from plasma and urine constituents using the Sep-Pak C18 cartridge, with satisfactory recovery and specificity, and resolution by acetonitrile gradient elution on a C18 reversed phase column coupled to a UV detector monitored at 240 nm. The assay was linear over a wide range of concentrations for all compounds in both body fluids with mean within-day and day-to-day coefficient of variation (CV) and relative error (RE) generally below 10%. Plasma concentrations of PD and its metabolites at selected intervals and urinary recoveries of all compounds before and after enzymatic hydrolysis are presented.

Enrichment of iron(III), cobalt(II), nickel(II), and copper(II) by solid-phase extraction with 1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone anchored to silica gel before their determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry.

A chelating matrix prepared by immobilizing 1,8-dihydroxyanthraquinone on silica gel modified with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane has been characterized by use of cross-polarization magic angle spinning (CPMAS) NMR, diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transformation (DRIFT) spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis and used to preconcentrate Fe(III), Co(II), Ni(II), and Cu(II) before their determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. The optimum pH ranges for quantitative sorption are 6.5-8.0, 6.0-7.0, 6.0-8.0, and 7.0-8.5 for Cu, Fe, Co, and Ni, respectively. All the metal ions can be desorbed with 2 mol L(-1) HCl or HNO3. The sorption capacity ( micromol g(-1) matrix) and preconcentration factor were 226.6, 250; 365.6, 300; 101.8, 150; and 109.0, 250 for Cu, Fe, Co, and Ni, respectively. The lowest concentration for quantitative recovery was 4.0, 3.3, 6.6, and 4.0 ng mL(-1), respectively for the four metal ions. The limits up to which electrolytes NaNO3, NaCl, NaBr, Na2SO4, and Na3PO4 and cations Ca(II) and Mg(II) can coexist with the four metal ions during their sorption without adverse effect are reported. The simultaneous enrichment and determination of all the four metals is possible if the total load of metal ions is less than the sorption capacity. Flame AAS was used to determine the metal ions in underground, tap, and river water samples (RSD<or=7.1%) after their enrichment with the matrix. The cobalt content of pharmaceutical samples (multivitamin tablet) preconcentrated by use of this silica gel matrix and determined by FAAS was found to be 2.00 microg g(-1), with RSDtilde;1.7% (reported concentration level, 1.99 microg g(-1)).

Determination of ultratrace elements in natural waters by solid-phase extraction and atomic spectrometry methods.

A study was carried out on the preconcentration of ultratrace amounts of cadmium, lead, manganese, copper and iron from high-salinity aqueous samples and determination by atomic spectrometry methods. Sample volume, amount of resin, loading flow rate, and elution volume were optimized in order to obtain the simultaneous preconcentration of all the analytes. Quantitative recoveries were obtained by using 200 mg of iminodiacetic resin with a loading flow rate of 2 mL min(-1), elution volume of 3 mL and sample volume of 50-450 mL. Only copper in seawater samples was not completely retained by the resin (60-70% recovery), due to unfavorable competition of iminodiacetic-active groups with organically bound metal.To quantify the metals in the eluates, two atomic spectrometry techniques were compared: electrothermal atomization atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) and inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) with simultaneous CCD detection system. Both techniques are suitable for sample analysis with detection limits of 1.0, 4.7, 3.3, 6.8, and 53 ng L(-1) using ETAAS and 12, 122, 3.4, 17, and 21 ng L(-1) using ICP-OES for Cd, Pb, Mn, Cu, and Fe, respectively. Relative standard deviations of the procedures ranged from 1.7 to 14% at the sub-microg L(-1) concentration level. The accuracy of both methods was verified by analyzing various certified reference materials (river water, estuarine water, coastal and off-shore seawater).

Analysis of pesticide residues in essential oils of citrus fruit by GC-MS and HPLC-MS after solid-phase extraction.

A robust reliable method for the analysis of residues of pesticides in citrus groves was developed. Residues of twelve pesticides were extracted from citrus essential oils by SPE, separated by liquid chromatography and analyzed by GC-MS. In addition, ten pesticides were extracted by SPE, separated and analyzed by electrospray HPLC-MS. In the case of lemon essential oils, all twenty residues were separated by liquid/solid extraction on a mixed Florisil-C(18) cartridge. The method enabled the analysis of the twenty pesticide residues at levels of 2 to 30 ppm with limits of detection ranging between 0.02 to 0.50 mg L(-1).

Lead ultra-trace on-line preconcentration and determination using selective solid phase extraction and electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry: applications in seawaters and biological samples.

In this work, a new chelating resin [1,5-bis (2-pyridyl)-3-sulphophenyl methylene] thiocarbonohydrazide immobilised on aminopropyl-controlled pore glass (550 A; PSTH-cpg) was synthesised and packed in a microcolumn which replaced the sample tip of the autosampler arm. The system was applied to the preconcentration of lead. When microliters of 10% HNO3, which acts as elution agent, pass through the microcolumn, the preconcentrated Pb(II) is eluted and directly deposited in a tungsten-rhodium coated graphite tube. With the use of the separation and preconcentration step and the permanent modifiers, the analytical characteristics of the technique were improved. The proposed method has a linear calibration range from 0.012 to 10 ng ml(-1) of lead. At a sample frequency of 36 h(-1) with a 90 s preconcentration time, the enrichment factor was 20.5, the detection and determination limits were 0.012 and 0.14 ng ml(-1), respectively and the precision, expressed as relative standard deviation, was 3.2% (at 1 ng ml(-1)). Results from the determination of Pb in biological certified reference materials were in agreement with the certified values. Seawaters and other biological samples were analysed too.

The stability of non-ionic surfactants and linear alkylbenzene sulfonates in a water matrix and on solid-phase extraction cartridges.

The stability of nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPEO), alcohol ethoxylates (AEO), coconut diethanol amides (CDEA) and linear alkylbenzene sulfonates (LAS) in a water matrix and preconcentrated on SPE cartridges was studied. A stability study was carried out in a water matrix (spiked ground water and real-world waste water) comparing different pretreatment procedures (addition of sulfuric acid to pH = 3, preservation with 1% and 3% of formaldehyde). When stored in a water matrix serious qualitative and quantitative changes occurred in waste water during the period of time studied (30 days). The losses of C12-C14 alcohol ethoxylates ranged from 72% to 88% when the sample was preserved with acid and from 17% to 86% when the sample was preserved with formaldehyde (3%). Simultaneously, an enrichment of the shorter alkyl chain homologues (C7EO and C10EO) was observed. The losses of NPEO were from 45% (sample preserved by acidification or by addition of 3% of formaldehyde) to 85% (sample preserved with 1% of formaldehyde). Additionally, an increase in concentration of polyethylene glycols (PEGs) and formation of different acidic forms, such as monocarboxylated (MCPEGs) and dicarboxylated polyethylene glycols (DCPEGs) were observed. The stability of surfactants preconcentrated on SPE cartridges was studied as a function of storage time and storage conditions (room temperature, 4 degrees C and -20 degrees C). The results indicate that disposable SPE cartridges can be recommended for the stabilization of non-ionic surfactants and LAS. Storage at -20 degrees C is feasible for long periods (up to 3 months for ground water and up to 2 months for waste water), while storage at 4 C can be recommended for a maximum of 1 month. When cartridges were kept at -20 degrees C the losses of AEOs (n = 12, 13 and 14), preconcentrated from waste water, ranged from 17 to 29% (after 60 days) and other compounds suffered small losses (maximum of 14% for C13LAS). At room temperature, after 7 days, the losses were less than 11%, indicating that shipping of samples by mail can be done without any special requirements.

Quinalizarin anchored on Amberlite XAD-2. A new matrix for solid-phase extraction of metal ions for flame atomic absorption spectrometric determination.

Amberlite XAD-2 has been functionalized by coupling it to quinalizarin [1,2,5,8-tetrahydroxyanthraquinone] by means of an -N = N- spacer. Elemental analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, and infrared spectra were used to characterize the resulting new polymer matrix. The matrix has been used to preconcentrate Cu(II), Cd(II), Co(II), Pb(II), Zn(II), and Mn(II) before their determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS). UO2(II) has been preconcentrated for fluorimetric determination. The optimum pH values for maximum adsorption of the metals are between 5.0 and 7.0. All these metal ions are desorbed (recovery 91-99%) with 4 mol L(-1) HNO3. The adsorptive capacity of the resin was found to be in the range 0.94-5.28 mg metal g(-1) resin and loading half-life (t1/2) between 5.3 and 15.0 min. The effects of NaF, NaCl, NaNO3, Na2SO4, Na3PO4, Ca(II), and Mg(II) on the adsorption of these metal ions (0.2 microg mL(-1)) are reported. The lower limits of detection for these metal ions are between 1 and 15.0 microg L(-1). After enrichment on this matrix flame AAS has been used to determine these metal ions (except the uranyl ion) in river water samples (RSD < or = 6.5%); fluorimetry was used to determine uranyl ion in well water samples (RSD < or = 6.3%). Cobalt from pharmaceutical vitamin tablets was preconcentrated by use of this chelating resin and estimated by FAAS (RSD approximately 4%).

Multidimensional on-line solid-phase extraction (SPE) using restricted access materials (RAM) in combination with molecular imprinted polymers (MIP).

A novel, multidimensional SPE sample-processing platform for complex fluids, which relies on the combination of small LC columns packed with restricted access materials (RAM) and molecular imprinted polymers (MIP) is described. It is called the Six-S ProcEdure (Six-SPE). Six-SPE involves a size-selective sample-separation step followed by a solvent-switch. Six-SPE efficiently removes interfering matrix components of complex aqueous samples and creates optimal conditions for selective recognition, i.e. binding of the imprinted target analyte(s). A Six-SPE analysis cycle consists of four distinct steps: 1. separation of a given sample (e.g. plasma, urine, saliva, milk, etc.) by adsorptive extraction (e.g. reversed-phase partitioning) of low molecular weight components on to the stationary phase of a RAM column and simultaneous size-exclusion, i.e. quantitative disposal of macromolecular matrix constituents to waste; 2. desorption and transfer of the extract from the RAM column on to a series-connected MIP column using a pure organic mobile phase (e.g. acetonitrile) [solvent switch]; 3. molecular recognition, i.e. selective binding of the target analyte(s) by a tailor-made MIP column; and 4. desorption and transfer of the analyte fraction on to a series-connected separation (e.g. HPLC) and/or detection system (e.g. UV, FD, MS). As a first application we coupled the Six-SPE platform to a conventional HPLC system for on-line analysis of the analgesic drug Tramadol in human plasma using LiChrospher ADS RP-18 as a RAM precolumn for the fractionation step in the first and second chromatographic dimension and a Tramadol imprinted polymer for the molecular recognition step, i.e. third chromatographic dimension.

Solid-phase extraction of urinary 11-dehydrothromboxane B2 for reliable determination with radioimmunoassay.

In this paper we elaborate a one-step procedure for the selective extraction of urinary 11-dehydrothromboxane B2 on octylsilyl silica cartridges for reliable determination with radioimmunoassay. The immunoreactivity profile of nonselectively extracted urine after HPLC separation showed that as much as 70% of the total 11-dehydrothromboxane B2 immunoreactivity comigrates with polar interfering material. Its amount could be considerably decreased using acetonitrile:water (18:82, v/v) as wash solvent before elution of 11-dehydrothromboxane B2 from the cartridge. Alternatively, very high immunoreactive purity was achieved without the preceding wash step by selective elution of the analyte with dichloromethane:hexane (70:30). After both optimized steps in the extraction procedure were combined, immunoreactivity was found only in HPLC fractions corresponding to the retention volume of authentic 11-dehydrothromboxane B2. The homogeneity of this immunoreactivity was confirmed by two-step HPLC separation. A significant correlation of values was observed between samples measured after extraction and those measured after subsequent HPLC purification. A high correlation was also found with concentrations determined by radioimmunoassay using four different antisera. The values of 24 h excretion of 11-dehydrothromboxane B2 in 10 male volunteers (595 +/- 114 ng/g creatinine, mean +/- SD) as well as the inhibitory effect of acetylsalicylic acid (80 +/- 13%) closely correspond with those reported in the literature. This selective extraction procedure provides a high validity in radioimmunoassay without requiring any further purification step.
