In this study, solid phase micro-extraction (SPME) was optimized to improve the sensitivity and accuracy in formaldehyde determination for plywood panels. Further work has been carried out to compare the newly developed technique with existing method which reacts formaldehyde collected in desiccators with acetyl acetone reagent (DC-AA). In SPME, formaldehyde was first derivatized with O-(2,3,4,...

Volatile fingerprinting by Headspace-Solid-Phase Microextraction followed Direct Injection Mass Spectrometry (HS-SPME DIMS) has been assessed for the first time as an alternative approach to gas chromatographic methods GC-MS) rapid classification of honey botanical origin. In order fully evaluate potential SPME authentication, samples from different sources (eucalyptus, citrus, acacia, rosemary...

The diagnostic potential and health implications of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in human feces has begun to receive considerable attention. Headspace solid-phase microextraction (SPME) has greatly facilitated the isolation and analysis of VOCs from human feces. Pioneering human fecal VOC metabolomic investigations have utilized a single SPME fiber type for analyte extraction and a...

The high beef price triggers adulteration of and other non-halal animal meat, such as wild boar rats. An appropriate effective analytical method is needed to differentiate halal meat. SPME/GC-MS could authenticate meat based on specific volatile compounds in each objective this study was characterize determine the marker raw beef, rat, their mixtures using SPME/GC-MS. chemometrics principal com...

The volatile components of Citrus aurantium L. flowers were characterized by GC-MS with two different extraction techniques, hydrodistillation (HD) and ultrasonic-assisted headspace solid phase microextraction (UA-HS-SPME). In the SPME method, the volatile components of the samples, irradiated by ultrasonic radiation, were collected on a polydimethyl siloxane (PDMS) commercial fiber as...

A fiber coating from polyaniline (PANI) was electrochemically prepared and employed for Solid phase micreoextraction (SPME). The PANI film was directly electrodeposited on the platinum wire surface using cyclic voltametry (CV) technique. The same method was applied for the preparation of SPME fiber coated by polyaniline multiwalled carbon nanotubes (PANI/MWCNTs) composite. The concentration of ...

Substances classified as unknown or variable composition, complex reaction products biological origin (UVCB) present a challenge for environmental hazard and risk assessment. Here, we novel approach whole-substance bioconcentration testing applied to cedarwood oil—an essential oil composed of volatile, hydrophobic organic chemicals. The method yields whole-body elimination rate constants mixtur...
