A gel permeation chromatographic (GPC) method, used by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), was modified for cleanup of soil, sediments, wastes, and oily wastes before determination of semivolatile organic pollutants. The modifications included new calibration procedures and control of the amount of material processed. The modifications were evaluated for soil and sediment matrixes in a 5-laboratory study where each laboratory processed a solution containing a phthalate, substituted phenols and benzenes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), nitroaniline, and pesticides. With the exception of nitroaniline, analyte recoveries were 87-112%, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 6.7-26%. Soil samples containing PCBs and fortified with 6 pesticides at 0.7-4 micrograms/g were also analyzed by the 5 laboratories. The mean recovery of the 6 pesticides was 100% with a mean RSD of 16%. Mean RSD for the determination of total PCBs was 8.9%. An additional modification for the processing of wastes and high concentration waste samples was attempted; this involved GPC processing of sample extracts dissolved in 1 + 1 butyl chloride-methylene chloride. This modification did not improve recoveries of the semivolatile analytes. Finally, the modified GPC protocol was applied to PCB-contaminated reclaimed waste oils samples. Two GPC cleanup steps were used to separate PCBs from the waste oil samples before PCBs were determined by gas chromatography combined with electron-capture detection (GC/ECD).  相似文献

Twenty-three laboratories from 13 countries in continental Europe, Scandinavia, the British Isles, and North America participated in a polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) Check Sample Program conducted under the auspices of the International Council for Exploration of the Sea (ICES). PCBs were determined in unspiked and spiked (1.00 mg Aroclor 1254/kg oil) herring (Clupea harengus harengus) oil by the participants, each of which used his or her own cleanup and quantitation techniques; a common Aroclor 1254 mixture was used as a standard and a common quantitation technique was used for comparative purposes. Results for the unspiked oil ranged from 0.48 to 3.416 mg PCB/kg oil, while spiked oil results ranged from 0.70 to 3.891 mg/kg. Calculated spike recoveries ranged from 22 to 136%. Serious deficiencies were found in most steps in the procedures. No evidence was found to support the use of a common PCB standard or a common method of calculation using packed column chromatography. The chromatographic stationary phase used appeared to affect the PCB levels obtained. Florisil cleanup adsorbent yielded higher mean results for both unspiked and spiked oils than did alumina. Large coefficients of variation were found (25-50%), the principal source of which was systematic error (interlaboratory).  相似文献

A simple and efficient method is presented for the extraction, cleanup, and liquid chromatographic (LC) determination of oxamyl residues in potato tubers. Samples are extracted with methanol, partitioned into dichloromethane, and cleaned up using Sep-Pak Florisil cartridges. LC determination is performed using a Zorbax PSM 60 size exclusion column with an acetonitrile-water (1 + 9) mobile phase and UV detection at 254 nm. Recovery of oxamyl from spiked control tubers averaged 94.1 and 85.9% at fortification levels of 0.4 and 0.08 micrograms oxamyl/g tuber, respectively. The minimum detectable concentration of oxamyl by this method is 0.01 micrograms/g.  相似文献

Determination of trace residues of polychlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PCDDs and PCDFs) in various matrixes is carried out by a limited number of laboratories in the United States, Canada, and other countries. Current methods for analysis of foods and biological tissues include a combination of preparation, extraction, cleanup, isolation, determination, and identity confirmation procedures. Soxhlet, liquid/liquid, solid-phase, and column extraction procedures are used as well as treatment with acid or base before solvent extraction. Cleanup and isolation steps include sulfuric acid partitioning; adsorption chromatography on Florisil, silica gel, or alumina; gel permeation chromatography; multi-stage column chromatography on sulfuric acid silica and alkali silica; carbon column chromatography; and liquid chromatography fractionation with size exclusion, normal-phase, and reverse-phase columns. Activated carbon and multistage chromatographic columns are widely used in cleanup schemes. Isomer-specific identification and quantitation of PCDD and PCDF congeners at parts-per-trillion levels or lower are carried out by high resolution (capillary) gas chromatography (HRGC) and multiple ion detection mass spectrometry. In addition to chemical methods, bioassay procedures have been recommended (e.g., use of monoclonal antibodies, for immunoassay determination of PCDDs and PCDFs).  相似文献

The N-heptafluorobutyryl isobutyl derivatives of proteic amino acids are well resolved by gas chromatography and form the basis of a convenient, rapid assay. The derivatives are prepared by acid-catalyzed esterification at 120 degrees C for 20 min in 3N HCl-isobutanol followed by acylation with heptafluorobutyric anhydride at 150 degrees C for 10 min. The reaction sequence is performed without any transfers or extractions and thus is compatible with microscale analysis. A complete proteic amino acid profile can be completed in less than 20 min by using a packed column or less than 10 min by using a capillary column in combination with an elevated oven temperature program rate. Physiological sample matrixes, which frequently contain a complex mixture of components, and thus require maximum resolution, can be assayed in less than 1 h using a program rate of 4 degrees C/min. A capillary column is recommended for this application. Capillary column chromatography, in combination with a nitrogen-specific detector, is useful for identifying and assaying nonproteic amino acids in physiological sample matrixes. Frequently, a prior cleanup of the sample can be avoided.  相似文献

A chemical cleanup procedure for low-level quantitative determination of aflatoxins in major economically important agricultural commodities using HPLC has been developed. Aflatoxins were extracted from a ground sample with MeOH/H2O (80:20, v/v), and after a cleanup step on a minicolumn packed with Florisil, aflatoxins were quantified by HPLC equipped with a C18 column, a photochemical reactor, and a fluorescence detector. Water/MeOH (63:37, v/v) served as the mobile phase. Recoveries of aflatoxins B1, B2, G1, and G2 from peanuts spiked at 5, 1.7, 5, and 1.7 ng/g were 89.5+/-2.2, 94.7+/-2.5, 90.4+/-1.0, and 98.2+/-1.1, respectively (mean+/-SD, %, n=3). Similar recoveries, precision, and accuracy were achieved for corn, brown and white rice, cottonseed, almonds, Brazil nuts, pistachios, walnuts, and hazelnuts. The quantitation limits for aflatoxins in peanuts were 50 pg/g for aflatoxin B1 and 17 pg/g for aflatoxin B2. The minimal cost of the minicolumn allows for substantial savings compared with available commercial aflatoxin cleanup devices.  相似文献

A method is presented for the determination of permethrin (m-phenoxybenzyl cis,trans-(+/-)-3-(2,2-dichlorovinyl)-2,2-dimethylcyclopropanecarboxylate) in bovine tissues. Fat and muscle samples were cleaned up first by liquid-liquid partition on a bonded phase chromatographic column. Final cleanup of fat and muscle was performed on a short Florisil column. Liver, kidney, spleen, and heart tissues only required cleanup on a Florisil column before quantitation of permethrin by electron capture gas-liquid chromatography.  相似文献

In the proposed method, a light petroleum solution of lanolin (wool fat) is adsorbed on diatomaceous earth in an Extrelut column, and the pesticides are eluted with acetonitrile saturated with light petroleum. After evaporation to a small volume, the extract is subjected to solid-phase extraction (SPE) on a C-18 column. The acetonitrile eluate is evaporated to dryness and the residue is taken up in light petroleum. Organophosphorus pesticides are determined by temperature-programmed gas chromatography (GC) on a wide-bore column using a flame photometric detector in the phosphorus mode. Organochlorine pesticides are determined after miniaturized Florisil cleanup by classic GC on an OV-17/QF-1 packed column, using an electron capture detector. This procedure is more rapid and straightforward than the time-consuming AOAC extraction method, 29.014. Cleanup was better and the results obtained were comparable. Recoveries for 13 organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides, frequently found in lanolin, ranged from 80 to 90%.  相似文献

A multicolumn solid-phase extraction cleanup for the determination of organophosphorus (OP) and organochlorine (OC) pesticides plus PCB congeners in virgin olive oil is presented. The method involves dissolution of the olive oil in hexane, followed by a cleanup system using a diatomaceous earth column (Extrelut-QE) with reversed (C(18)) and normal (alumina) phase SPE columns. Determination of OPs was by GC-NPD, while the OCs and PCBs were analyzed using GC-ECD. Recovery assays for OPs varied from 81.7% to 105.3%, for OCs ranged between 74.3% and 99.4%, while for PCBs were from 60.1% to 119.2%. Quantitation limits ranged from 10 to 25 microg/kg olive oil for OPs, and from 1 to 6 microg/kg olive oil for OCs and PCBs. In the case of positive samples, the confirmation of pesticide identity was performed by ion-trap GC-MS/MS. The applicability of the method was assayed with 19 virgin olive oil samples collected from different olive mills of Aragón (Spain). Only one OP pesticide (acephate) was detected in one sample at a concentration of 10 microg/kg. Organochlorine pesticides were found in 5-47% of samples at very low levels ranging from 1.5 to 5.2 microg/kg. PCBs were found in 20-90% of samples, showing concentrations between 2.3 and 17.3 microg/kg.  相似文献

A high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method has been developed for determining ochratoxin A and zearalenone in cereals. The sample is extracted with phosphoric acid and chloroform. The extract is cleaned by washing on a silica gel column with cyclohexane-ethylene dichloride-ethyl ether. After eluting zearalenone with chloroform, ochratoxin A is eluted with chloroform-formic acid. Zearalenone is extracted into alkaline solution, washed with chloroform, the pH is adjusted, and the zearalenone is extracted back into chloroform. Ochratoxin A is purified by chromatography on aqueous sodium biarbonate-Celite. The mycotoxins are determined by using a liquid chromatograph with 2 columns in series packed with Spherisorb ODS 10 micrometer and 5 micrometers, respectively. Ochratoxin A is detected with a speftrophotofluorometer, coupled in series with an ultra-violet detector for estimation of zearalenone. Detection limits are 1-5 micrograms/kg for ochratoxin A and 2 micrograms/kg for zearalenone.  相似文献

A method using gel permeation and Florisil column chromatographic cleanup techniques is described for determination of residues of nonpolar organohalogen pesticides and pesticide alteration products in vegetable oils and their refinery by-products. Supplemental Florisil separation and alkali cleanup techniques are used to facilitate determinations. Residues are determined with a 63Ni electron capture gas chromatographic detection system used in conjunction with 3 different gas chromatographic columns. Residue identities are confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Recoveries of 7 organohalogen pesticides, ranging from 90 to 103%, were determined by the supplemental Florisil separation technique to augment previously reported recovery data determined for initial GPC and Florisil cleanup steps. Soybean, peanut, and cottonseed deodorizer distillates and crude and refined oil, as well as additional refinery by-products, were analyzed. Nine to 13 organohalogen residues ranging from 0.5 to 6.3 ppm were determined in the 2 soybean deodorizer distillate samples used to develop and test the method. Identities of residues present at greater than or equal to 0.3 ppm were confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. An intralaboratory trial of the method provided additional recovery and residue determination data as follows: Recoveries ranging from 102 to 116% were obtained for 4 pesticides added to peanut oil deodorizer distillate. Residues determined in 1 soybean deodorizer distillate sample supported previously obtained data for this sample.  相似文献

A procedure is described for the isolation and cleanup of hexachlorobenzene (HCB) and mirex in fats and oils for gas-liquid chromatographic (GLC) analysis. The fat or oil is distributed on unactivated Florisil, and the HCB and mirex are eluted with acetonitrile. The pesticides are then partitioned into petroleum ether. Elution through activated Florisil with methylene chloride-hexane (20+80) is used for the final cleanup. HCB and mirex are then measured by GLC, using the appropriate electron capture conditions with a 15% OV-210 column for HCB and a 3% OV-101 column for mirex. The method demonstrates recoveries greater than 90% for HCB and mirex and allows screening at or below the 0.1 ppm level in fats with a 3 mg fat injection.  相似文献

A modification of the current revised AOAC method, 26.A10-26.A15, is described for the rapid analysis of aflatoxin M1 in milk and nonfat dry milk. The method incorporates chloroform extraction and eliminates the need for column chromatography by using liquid-liquid partition for sample extract cleanup. Quantitation is carried out by using fluorescence detection combined with high pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC) of aflatoxin M1 which has been converted to aflatoxin M2a with trifluoroacetic acid. The method has a detection limit of 0.014 micrograms/L (2 X signal/noise) for whole milk. For 6 samples of naturally contaminated nonfat dry and freeze-dried milk, the modified method gave an average result of 0.698 micrograms/L; the AOAC method gave an average result of 0.386 micrograms/L.  相似文献

A method for extraction, cleanup, and simultaneous gas chromatographic detection of carbofuran, metalaxyl, and simazine in soils has been developed. Pesticide residues were extracted from soil with acetone containing 10% 0.2M HCl-KCl buffer (pH 2.0), cleaned up with methylene chloride-carbonate buffer (pH 10.7) solvent partitioning and solid-phase extraction on disposable silica gel columns, and quantitated with gas chromatography using a Supelcowax 10 megabore capillary column and a nitrogen-selective detector. Method limits of detection were 0.02 microgram/g for the 3 pesticides in surface soils (0-30 cm depths) and 0.02, 0.02, and 0.005 microgram/g in soils below 30 cm (subsoils) for carbofuran, metalaxyl, and simazine, respectively. Recoveries for carbofuran, metalaxyl, and simazine were 92.6 +/- 5.5, 93.6 +/- 5.0, and 88.4 +/- 6.7%, respectively, when soil samples were spiked with pesticide concentrations ranging from 0.02 to 2.0 micrograms/g.  相似文献

As part of an epidemiology study, extraction methods and extract cleanup procedures were developed and validated for polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and DDE, an ubiquitous metabolite of DDT, in human milk, blood serum, and infant formula. Studies included quantitative and reproducible recovery of total lipids, and reproducible and reasonably high recoveries of these chlorinated compounds from the human body fluids and infant formula, including levels of environmental health interest. An extensive quality control and assurance program was designed for use with these methods. Some validation work on serum was done using radiolabeled 14C-Aroclor 1254. Dilution assays were developed to permit use of a constant procedure, which should minimize variability in results. Methods are based on selected organic solvent extraction and column chromatographic cleanup techniques and quantitation by electron capture gas chromatography (EC/GC). Using these extensively researched extraction and cleanup methods, the limits of detection for GC measurements were 10.0 and 2.00 ppb for PCBs and DDE, respectively, in milk and 4.00 and 0.80 ppb in serum.  相似文献

Determination of halogenated contaminants in human adipose tissue   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  
A method has been developed for determination of organochlorine contaminants in human adipose tissue. After fat extraction from the tissue with acetone-hexane (15 + 85, v/v), organochlorines were fractionated from fat by gel permeation chromatography with methylene chloride-cyclohexane (1 + 1, v/v) as solvent. After Florisil column cleanup, the GPC extract was analyzed by capillary column gas chromatography using 2 columns of different polarity. Compound identity was confirmed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using selected ion monitoring. Recoveries for fortification levels of 10-500 ng/g were greater than 80% except for trichlorobenzene and hexachlorobutadiene (ca 60%).  相似文献

A procedure was developed to determine chlorinated methylthiobenzenes and their respective sulfur oxidation products in fish. Perch samples fortified at the 0.1 ppm level with 2,4,5-trichloromethylthiobenzene, pentachloromethylthiobenzene, and their sulfoxides and sulfones were extracted and cleaned up using an adaptation of the official AOAC method for multiple residues of organochlorine pesticides. The Florisil column cleanup was modified; 200 mL 6% petroleum etherethyl ether eluted the methylthiobenzenes, 200 mL 50% PE-EE eluted the sulfones, and 200 mL EE eluted the sulfoxides. Recoveries determined by electron capture (ECD) gas chromatography (GC) were 75-101% for the methylthiobenzenes and their sulfones and 63-93% for the sulfoxides. Co-extracted materials in the Florisil eluates that interfered with the ECD/GC quantitation were removed by partitioning the sulfoxides and sulfones into sulfuric acid and by thin layer chromatography on silica gel, using methylene chloride-hexane (50 + 50) as the developing solvent. Seven fish samples containing residues of chlorinated benzenes or polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were examined for chlorinated methylthiobenzenes, methylthio-PCBs, and their oxidation products by matching GC retention times obtained with the EC detector and a flame photometric detector operated in the sulfur mode. These analytes were not found in the fish samples above a detection level equivalent to 0.02 ppm 2,4,5-trichloromethylthiobenzene.  相似文献

A simplified method for determining polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), phthalates, and benzene hexachlorides (BHCs) in air has been developed. Florisil is used as the adsorbent, and compounds are eluted by liquid chromatography with 10% 2-propanol in hexane. PCBs are separated from phthalates plus BHCs on a cyanopropyl column with a gradient containing 10% 2-propanol in hexane and 100% hexane as the mobile phase. Two fractions are collected: one contains PCBs and the other contains phthalates plus BHCs, which are then determined by gas chromatography using a 63Ni electron-capture detector and a DB-5-bonded, fused-silica capillary column.  相似文献

A gas chromatographic/mass spectrometric (GC/MS) method is described for determination of organic environmental pollutants in human and bovine adipose tissues. Compounds such as organochlorine pesticides, polychlorinated biphenyls, polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons, polychlorinated aromatics, and brominated aromatics are extracted with organic solvents and separated from coextracted lipids on a Florisil column. The eluate is concentrated and compounds are identified and quantitated by GC/MS analysis. The method was evaluated in a single laboratory for ability to recover compounds of environmental and regulatory importance. Except for a few more polar compounds, such as phthalates and phosphates, recoveries averaged about 85%. The elution system maximized recovery and allowed minimal coelution of lipid materials. Detection limits for most compounds studied were in the range of 5-50 ng/g (ppb).  相似文献
