PG - 17-22 LID - S0021-9673(15)01114-0 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.chroma.2015.07.106 [doi] AB - A solvent-free method for the rapid analysis of six benzophenone-type UV absorbers in water samples is described. The method involves the use of dispersive micro solid-phase extraction (DmSPE) followed by the simultaneous silylation and thermal desorption (SSTD) gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) operating in the selected-ion-storage (SIS) mode. A Plackett-Burman design was used for screening and a central composite design (CCD) for optimizing the significant factors was applied. The optimal experimental conditions involved immersing 1.5mg of the Oasis HLB adsorbent in a 10mL portion of water sample. After vigorous shaking for 1min, the adsorbents were transferred to a micro-vial, and were dried at 122 degrees C for 3.5min, after cooling, 2muL of the BSTFA silylating reagent was added. For SSTD, the injection-port temperature was held at 70 degrees C for 2.5min for derivatization, and the temperature was then rapidly increased to 340 degrees C to allow the thermal desorption of the TMS-derivatives into the GC for 5.7min. The limits of quantitation (LOQs) were determined to be 1.5-5.0ng/L. Precision, as indicated by relative standard deviations (RSDs), was equal or less than 11% for both intra- and inter-day analysis. Accuracy, expressed as the mean extraction recovery, was between 87% and 95%. A preliminary analysis of the municipal wastewater treatment plant (MWTP) effluent and river water samples revealed that 2-hydroxy-4-methoxybenzophenone (BP-3) was the most common benzophenone-type UV absorber present. Using a standard addition method, the total concentrations of these compounds ranged from 5.1 to 74.8ng/L. CI - Copyright (c) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
