Determination of 4-nonylphenol in river-water samples by LC/MS using solid-phase sorbents

HCl- Etched Steel Fiber for Determination of Phthalates in Water Samples by Solid-Phase Microextraction

In the present work, a stainless steel wire was etched by hydrochloric acid during a chemical etching process. The obtained black layer on the surface of the fiber was used as sorbent for extraction of trace amount of phthalates in the aqueous samples by solid phase microextraction. New fiber efficiency was investigated using a home-made solid-phase microextraction (SPME) device and gas chr...

Determination of 4-nonylphenol in water samples using 4-(2,6-dimethylhept-3-yl)phenol as new internal standard.

A new method for determining the endocrine disrupting substance 4-nonylphenol (technical grade=mixture of isomers, 4-NP) from water samples has been developed by using 4-(2,6-dimethylhept-3-yl)phenol (4-sec-NP) as model compound. This branched monoalkylphenol is shown to serve as internal standard (IS) for the determination of technical 4-nonylphenol. To the best of our knowledge, 4-(2,6-dimeth...

Determination of bisphenol A and 4-nonylphenol in human milk using alkaline digestion and cleanup by solid-phase extraction.

A highly sensitive and selective method based on alkaline digestion for the simultaneous determination of bisphenol A (BPA) and 4-nonylphenol (NP) was developed. The method consists of digestion of the matrix with ethanolic KOH, extraction with diethyl ether under a mild alkaline condition, cleaning with successive aminopropyl (NH2) cartridges and derivatization followed by a GC-MS analysis. Th...

Differential Pulse Voltammetric Method for 4-Nonylphenol Determination in Water Samples

A novel assay for the electrochemical detection of 4-nonylphenol (4-NP) based on carbon nanotubes modified screen-printed carbon electrodes (CNTs-SPCEs) has been investigated. The electrochemical behavior of the modified SPCEs and the mechanism of the oxidation of NP were investigated using cyclic voltammetry. The differential pulse voltammetry parameters were optimized for quantitative determi...
