The objective of this study is determination the volatile compounds of Matricaria chamomilla of an inorganic–organic hybrid material based on ZnO nanoparticles anchored to a composite made from polythiophene and hexagonally ordered silica (ZnO/PT/SBA-15) as a solid-phase fiber microextraction (SPME). Microextraction techniques with nanoparticles ZnO/PT/SBA-15 resulted in a more efficient analyt...

This article reviews the recent developments in Bio-Analytical sample preparation techniques and gives an update on basic principles, Applications and comparative discussion on the advantages and limitations of each technique. Conventional Solid-Phase Extraction (SPE), Molecularly Imprinted Polymer SPE techniques are have been considered as methods of past. Developments in SPE techniques such a...

A novel procedure based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)/silica reinforced hollow fibre solid-phase microextraction combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry has been developed to analyse trace phthalate acid esters in beverage and alcoholic samples. Because of their excellent adsorption capability towards hydrophobic compounds, functionalized MWCNTs, acting as solid-phase sor...

The investigation of aroma compounds of the essential oils of dried fruits of black pepper (Piper nigrum) and black and white "Ashanti pepper" (Piper guineense) from Cameroon by means of solid-phase microextraction (SPME) was carried out for the first time to identify the odorous target components responsible for the characteristic odor of these valuable spices and food flavoring products. By m...

This review aims at summarizing the most recent updates in the field of acrylamide (AA) formation (mechanism, conditions) and the determination of AA in a number of foods (fried or baked potatoes, chips, coffee, bread, etc). The methods applied for AA detection [Capillary Electrophoresis-Mass Spectrometry (CE-MS), Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS), Non-Aqueous Capillary Electropho...

A solid bar microextraction (SBME) method containing sorbent materials 2 mg in the lumen of a porous hollow fiber membrane 2.5 cm for the extraction of carbamazepine, diclofenac and ibuprofen from river water samples is described. The desorbed analytes were analyzed using reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection. In order to achieve optimum performance, s...

In this paper, the possibility of using a new ordered nanoporous carbon as a new fiber in headspace solid phase microextraction (HS-SPME) to determine of mononitrotoluenes (MNTs) in waste water is demonstrated. The structural order and textural properties of the ordered nanoporous carbon were studied by X Ray Diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images and nitrogen adsorpti...
