Direct analysis of samples, regardless their origin, is desirable although for the majority of cases unfeasible on account of the complexity of the sample matrix, inadequate concentration of the target analytes, or even incompatibility with the detector. In these cases, a sample pretreatment step is required for interference removal and analytes separation/preconcentration. Despite valuable adv...

In this work, two approaches based on Dispersive Liquid-Liquid MicroExtraction (DLLME) and Dispersive Liquid-Liquid MicroExtraction based on Solidification of Floating Organic Drop (DLLME-SFO) were compared for the extraction and preconcentration of crocin from saffron and biological samples. Different DLLME and DLLME-SFO parameters influencing the extraction efficiency were studied and opt...

abstract polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) are classified as persistent and carcinogenic organic pollutants. pahs contamination has been reported in water. many of relevant regulatory bodies such as eu and epa have regulated the limit levels for pahs in drinking water. in this study, 13 priority polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pahs) were determined in tap water samples of tehran and wat...

dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction technique based on solidification of a floating organic drop (dllme-sfo) combined with flame atomic absorption spectrometry was developed for determination of thallium in water sample. an appropriate mixture of acetone and 1-undecanol was rapidly injected into an aqueous sample containing tlcl4- which forms an ion pair with brilliant green reagent and as...

A simple and efficient homogenous liquid-liquid extraction method performed in a narrow tube combined with dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction method has been presented for the simultaneous determination of two antiepileptic drugs in urine followed by gas chromatography with flame ionization detection. In this method, a mixture of acetonitrile and urine sample (homogenous solution) is load...
