Application of Covalent Organic Porous Polymers-Functionalized Basalt Fibers for in-Tube Solid-Phase Microextraction.

ABSTRACT: To establish an online analytical method towards estrogenic pollutants, a covalent organic porous polymer (COP) was in-situ synthesized on the surface of basalt fibers (BFs) for in-tube solid-phase microextraction (IT-SPME). The extraction tube, obtained via placing the modified BFs into a polyetheretherketone tube, was combined with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to achieve online IT-SPME-HPLC analysis. The important parameters, including sampling volume, sampling rate, organic solvent content and desorption time, were carefully investigated. Under the optimized conditions, the online analytical method was established for five estrogenic targets, with low limits of detection (0.001-0.005 ?g/L), high enrichment factors (1800-2493), wide linear ranges (0.003-20, 0.015-20 ?g/L) and satisfactory repeatability. It was successfully applied to detect five estrogens in a wastewater sample and a water sample in a polycarbonate cup. The BFs functionalized with COPs displayed excellent extraction effect for estrogenic pollutants, furthermore it has great potential in sample preparation or other fields.
