Chromium-based metal organic framework for pipette tip micro-solid phase extraction: an effective approach for determination of methyl and propyl parabens in wastewater and shampoo samples.

ABSTRACT:

Background

A chromium-based metal organic framework was synthesized and employed as an efficient sorbent for pipette tip micro-solid phase extraction and preconcentration of parabens from wastewater and shampoo samples up to sub-ppb level before their spectrophotometric analysis.

Results

Factors affecting preconcentration including volume and type of solvent, amount of sorbent, number of extraction, and volume and pH of samples were optimized employing one-variable-at-a-time and response surface methodology. Obtained analytical characteristics of the method proves its usefulness for analysis of real samples. Linear range of the method for parabens was 1.0-200.0 μg/L. Detection limit of the protocol was 0.24 µg/L for propyl paraben and 0.25 µg/L for methyl paraben. Reproducibility of the protocol defined as % RSD was better than 5.78%. Synthesized adsorbent can be re-used for at least 20 extractions.

Conclusion

The method showed a good detection limit and precision for determination of methyl- and propyl-paraben in wastewater and shampoo samples.

Determination of profenofos in seawater and foodstuff samples after its molecularly imprinted polymer pipette-tip micro solid phase extraction optimized by response surface methodology.

Project description:BackgroundIn this research, a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was synthesized and employed as a sorbent for pipette-tip micro solid phase extraction of profenofos insecticide in seawater, rice, and fish samples. The instrument employed for quantitation was spectrophotometry.ResultsVarious factors affecting the microextraction protocol, including type and volume of the elution solvent, weight of MIP, pH and volume of sample solution, and number of cycles of loading and desorption were considered and optimized using one-factor-at-a-time, central composite design and Box-Behnken design. Factors optimized at: pH 4.0, amount of sorbent 2.5 mg, volume of methanol:acetic (9:1) acid as eluent 250 µL, both the number of extraction and elution cycles 5, and volume of sample 8.0 mL. At optimized conditions, an enrichment factor of 31 was achieved and the linearity range of the method was between 1.0 and 1000.0 µg/L. A good detection limit of 0.33 µg/L with a reproducibility better than 5.6% (as RSD) was observed.ConclusionThe technique showed good analytical features for determination of profenofos in seawater, rice, and fish samples. Simplicity of operation of spectrophotometry and lack of using expensive HPLC grade solvents are other points of strengths of this method. The total analysis time was about 10 min, which is far less than techniques such as HPLC. Comparison between optimization with central composite design and Box-Behnken design showed better performance of the former.

A Rapid LC-HRMS Method for the Determination of Domoic Acid in Urine Using a Self-Assembly Pipette Tip Solid-Phase Extraction.

Project description:In this study, we developed a self-assembly pipette tip solid-phase extraction (PTSPE) method using a high molecular weight polymer material (PAX) as the adsorbent for the determination of domoic acid (DA) in human urine samples by liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS) analysis. The PTSPE cartridge, assembled by packing 9.1 mg of PAX as sorbent into a 200 ?L pipette tip, showed high adsorption capacity for DA owing to the strong cationic properties of PAX. Compared with conventional SPE, the PTSPE is simple and fast, and shows some advantages in the aspects of less solvent consumption, low cost, the absence of the evaporation step, and short time requirement. All the parameters influencing the extraction efficiency such as pH, the amount of sorbent, the number of aspirating/dispensing cycles, and the type and volume of eluent in PTSPE were carefully investigated and optimized. Under the optimized conditions, the limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) values of DA were 0.12 ?g/L and 0.37 ?g/L respectively. The extraction recoveries of DA from the urine samples spiked at four different concentrations were in a range from 88.4% to 102.5%. The intra- and inter-day precisions varied from 2.1% to 7.6% and from 2.6% to 12.7%, respectively. The accuracy ranged from -1.9% to -7.4%.

A new approach for cytokinin isolation from Arabidopsis tissues using miniaturized purification: pipette tip solid-phase extraction.

Project description:UnlabelledBackgroundWe have developed a new analytical approach for isolation and quantification of cytokinins (CK) in minute amounts of fresh plant material, which combines a simple one-step purification with ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-fast scanning tandem mass spectrometry.ResultsPlant tissue samples (1-5 mg FW) were purified by stop-and-go-microextraction (StageTip purification), which previously has only been applied for clean-up and pre-concentration of peptides. We found that a combination of two reverse phases and one cation-exchange phase, was the best tool, giving a total extraction recovery higher than 80%. The process was completed by a single chromatographic analysis of a wide range of naturally occurring cytokinins (bases, ribosides, O- and N-glucosides, and nucleotides) in 24.5 minutes using an analytical column packed with sub-2-microne particles. In multiple reaction monitoring mode, the detection limits ranged from 0.05 to 5 fmol and the linear ranges for most cytokinins were at least five orders of magnitude. The StageTip purification was validated and optimized using samples of Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings, roots and shoots where eighteen cytokinins were successfully determined.ConclusionsThe combination of microextraction with one-step high-throughput purification provides fast, effective and cheap sample preparation prior to qualitative and quantitative measurements. Our procedure can be used after modification also for other phytohormones, depending on selectivity, affinity and capacity of the selected sorbents.

Application of response surface methodology for optimization of metal-organic framework based pipette-tip solid phase extraction of organic dyes from seawater and their determination with HPLC.

Project description:This paper describes the application of response surface methodology (RSM) to develop a miniaturized metal organic framework based pipette-tip solid phase extraction for the extraction of malachite green (MG), rhodamine B (RB), methyl orange (MO) and acid red 18 (AR) dyes from seawater samples and their determination by high performance liquid chromatography. The effects of various parameters such as pH of the sample solution, type and amount of added salt, type and volume of eluent solvent, concentration of surfactant (triton X-114), sample volume, and number of cycles of extraction and desorption were investigated and optimized by two methods of one-variable-at-a-time and RSM based on Box-Behnken design. Under optimum conditions, the linear range of the method was 0.5-200.0 µg/L for RB and MG and 1.0-150.0 µg/L for AR and MO. Limits of detection of the analytes were obtained in the range of 0.09-0.38 µg/L. Reproducibility of the method (as RSD %) was better than 6.4%. The method has been successfully used for analysis of four dyes in seawater of Chabahar Bay.

Accessible Telemedicine Diagnostics with ELISA in a 3D Printed Pipette Tip.

Project description:We report herein a novel pipet-based "ELISA in a tip" as a new versatile diagnostic tool featuring better sensitivity, shorter incubation time, accessibility, and low sample and reagent volumes compared to traditional ELISA. Capture and analysis of data by a cell phone facilitates electronic delivery of results to health care providers. Pipette tips were designed and 3D printed as adapters to fit most commercial 50-200 μL pipettes. Capture antibodies (Ab1) are immobilized on the inner walls of the pipet tip, which serves as the assay compartment where samples and reagents are moved in and out by pipetting. Signals are generated using colorimetric or chemiluminescent (CL) reagents and can be quantified using a cell phone, CCD camera, or plate reader. We utilized pipet-tip ELISA to detect four cancer biomarker proteins with detection limits similar to or lower than microplate ELISAs at 25% assay cost and time. Recoveries of these proteins from spiked human serum were 85-115% or better, depending slightly on detection mode. Using CCD camera quantification of CL with femto-luminol reagent gave limits of detection (LOD) as low as 0.5 pg/mL. Patient samples (13) were assayed for 3 biomarker proteins with results well correlated to conventional ELISA and an established microfluidic electrochemical immunoassay.

Determination of Cyclaniliprole in Fruits and Vegetables Using Disposable Pipette Extraction Cleanup and Ultrahigh-Performance Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry.

Project description:Despite an outstanding agent for control of Lepidoptera, the diamide insecticide cyclaniliprole (CYCP) is a suspected carcinogen. In the present study, an analytical method was developed for the determination of CYCP in six fruits and vegetables (apple, grape, peach, bell pepper, lettuce, and tomato) using ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. Sample preparation was carried out by the acetonitrile-salting-out extraction followed by simple and fast cleanup of disposable pipette extraction tip containing styrene divinyl benzene and/or graphitized carbon black. Satisfactory linearity (r > 0.99) was obtained in the calibration range of 0.001-1 µg mL-1. Matrix effects decreased from -9.9--17.9% to -1.0--7.6% after the cleanup. The recoveries of CYCP at three spike levels (0.01, 0.1, and 1 mg kg-1) from different matrices were between 75.7% and 111.5%, with the intra-day (n = 5) and inter-day (n = 15) relative standard deviations lower than 12.1%. The limit of quantification was 0.01 mg kg-1. The developed method provides a good reference for routine monitoring of CYCP in these fruits and vegetables.

Ultrasound-assisted dispersive micro-solid phase extraction using molybdenum disulfide supported on reduced graphene oxide for energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometric determination of chromium species in water.

Project description:Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) was supported on graphene oxide (GO) by hydrothermal method. The resulting nanocomposite (MoS2-rGO) was characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The experiments show that at pH 2, MoS2-rGO has a great affinity for adsorption of hexavalent chromium ions while Cr(III) ions remain in aqueous sample. In the adsorption process, the dominant role plays chemisorption. The determined adsorption capacity is 583.5 mg g-1. Parameters affecting the extraction process, namely sample pH, sample volume, contact time, and matrix ions, were investigated by sequential batch tests. Under optimal conditions (pH 2, sample volume 50 mL, sonication time 10 min, adsorbent mass 1 mg), the calibration curve covers the 1-200 ng mL-1 range with a correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.998. The recovery of the method is 97 ± 3%. Other data of merit include a relative standard deviation of < 3.5%, enrichment factor of 3350, and detection limit of 0.050 ng mL-1. The accuracy of the method was confirmed by analysis of the reference materials QC1453 (chromium VI in drinking water) and QC3015 (chromium VI in seawater). The method was successfully applied to chromium speciation in water samples, including high salinity ones. The concentration of Cr(III) was calculated as the difference between the total concentration of chromium (after oxidation of Cr(III) to Cr(VI) with potassium permanganate) and the initial Cr(VI) content.Graphical abstract Schematic presentation of a method for determination of chromium species by energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometry after preconcentration on molybdenum disulfide supported on reduced graphene oxide.

Micro-remediation of chromium contaminated soils.

Project description:Bacteria are tiny organisms which are ubiquitously found in the environment. These microscopic living bodies are responsible for the flow of nutrients in biogeochemical cycles and fertility imparted to the soil. Release of excessive chromium in agricultural soils due to rapid growth of industries may result in minimizing the fertility of soil in future, which will lead to reduction in crop production. Plant growth promoting bacteria (PGPB) are beneficial to the environment, some of which can tolerate chromium and protect plants against heavy metal stress. The current study aims to identify such chromium-tolerant auxin-producing rhizobacteria and to investigate their inoculation effects on the growth characteristics of Lens culinaris in chromium polluted soils by using two different chromium salts i.e., K2Cr2O7 and K2CrO4 in varying concentrations (0, 50, 100, 200, 400 and 500 µgml-1). The results revealed that Bacillus species are efficient in significantly reducing the deleterious effects of Cr. These effective bacterial strains were able to stimulate the growth of metal effected plants of Lens culinaris which were grown in chromium contaminated environment. Therefore, these plant growth promoting rhizobacteria PGPRs, having both auxin production potential and chromium-resistance ability, are considered as efficient micro-factories against chromium pollution.

Transcriptome analysis reveals differences in developmental neurotoxicity mechanism of methyl-, ethyl-, and propyl- parabens in zebrafish embryos

Project description:Limited studies on comparison of developmental (neuro)toxicity of parabens have been conducted and unharmonized concentrations between phenotypic observations and transcriptomic analysis hamper understanding of their differential molecular mechanism. Developmental toxicity testing was conducted with commonly used methyl- (MtP), ethyl- (EtP) and propyl-paraben (PrP) in zebrafish embryos. Based on benchmark dose 5% (BMD5), embryonic mortality based-point of departure (M-PoD) values of three parabens were determined and changes in locomotor behavior were evaluated at concentrations of 0, M-PoD/50, M-PoD/10, and M-PoD in which transcriptomic analysis was conducted to explore the underlying neurotoxicity mechanism. Higher long-chained parabens were more toxic than short-chained parabens, as determined by M-PoD values of 154.1, 72.6, and 24.2 µM for MtP, EtP, and PrP, respectively. While exposure to EtP resulted in hyperactivity, no behavior effect was observed by MtP and PrP. Transcriptomics analysis revealed that abnormal behaviors in EtP-exposed group are associated with the distinctly enriched pathways in signal, transport, calcium ion binding, and metal-binding. In contrast, exposure to MtP and PrP mainly disrupted the membrane and transmembrane, which are closely linked to abnormal embryonic development rather than neurobehavior changes. According to the changes in expression of signature mRNAs, tentative transcriptomic-based PoD (T-PoD) values for each paraben were determined as MtP (2.68 µM), EtP (3.85 µM), and PrP (1.4 µM).

Chromatographic Determination of Total Selenium in Biofortified Allium sp. following Piazselenol Formation and Micro-Solid-Phase Extraction.

Project description:Herein, a method based on selective piazselenol formation is applied for total selenium determination in biofortified Allium species. Piazselenol is formed by reacting Se(IV) with an aromatic diamine, namely 4-nitro-1,2-phenylenediamine, in acidic medium. Samples were digested in a nitric acid/hydrogen peroxide open system, followed by selenate reduction in hydrochloric acid. Reaction conditions were optimized in terms of pH, temperature, reaction time, and other auxiliary reagents for interference removal, namely, EDTA and hydroxylamine. For the extraction of the selectively formed 4-nitro-piazselenol, micro-solid-phase extraction (μSPE) was applied, and the analysis and detection of the corresponding complex was performed by HPLC coupled with DAD. An external standard calibration curve was developed (R2 = 0.9994) with good sensitivity, and was used to calculate the total selenium content from several Allium plants material, with good intermediate precision (RSD% < 16%). The accuracy of the method was evaluated using both, a comparison with an accepted reference method from our previously published data, as well as three certified reference material with recoveries between 84-126%. The limit of detection was determined to be 0.35 μg/g (in solids) and 1.1 μg/L (in solution), while the limit of quantification was 1.07 μg/g and 3.4 μg/L (in solution). Using the proposed method, selenium content can be quickly and accurately determined in several types of samples. In addition, this study present experimental conditions for overcoming the interferences that might be encountered in selenium determination using piazselenol.
