PG - 45-52 LID - S0003-2670(14)00662-X [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.aca.2014.05.040 [doi] AB - A conducting copolymer of pyrrole and phenol was electrochemically synthesized on steel frits as a sorbent. The applicability of the frit was assessed for the solid-phase extraction of trace amounts of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in aqueous samples followed by HPLC-UV. The coating produced was very adherent and the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and FTIR spectrum for the coated frit were studied. The effects of various parameters on the efficiency of the solid-phase extraction process, such as the sample loading rate, elution solvent type, salt effect, volume and flow rate of sample and elution solvent were investigated. Under the optimal conditions, the calibration curves were obtained in the range of 0.1-500ngmL(-1) (r(2)>0.98) and the LODs (S/N=3) were obtained in the range of 0.01-0.08ngmL(-1). Relative standard deviations (RSDs) for intra- and inter-day precision were 2.7-10.2% and 3.6-11.4%, respectively. The recoveries (8 and 40ngmL(-1)) ranged from 79% to 115%. The simplicity of experimental procedure, short sample analysis, high extraction efficiency, and the use of low-cost adsorbent show the potential of this method for routine analysis of PAHs in real samples.
