Combination of dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction and solid–phase microextraction: An efficient hyphenated sample preparation method

Abstract

Two well-known microextraction methods, dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (DLLME) and solid–phase microextraction (SPME), were combined, resulting in as an encouraging method. The method, named DLLME–SPME, was performed based on total vaporization technique. For the DLLME step, 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane and acetonitrile were used as extraction and disperser solvents, respectively. Halloysite nanotubes–titanium dioxide was used as the fiber coating in the SPME step. The method was applied for the extraction of diazinon and parathion (as the test compounds) in environmental water samples and fruit juices, and gas chromatography–corona discharge ion mobility spectrometry was used as the determination apparatus. Desorption temperature and time, extraction temperature and time, and the volume of the extracting solvent in the DLLME step were optimized as the effective parameters on the extraction efficiency. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) of intra-day were found to be 4–7% and 6–8% for diazinon and parathion, respectively. Also, the RSDs of inter-day were 7–9% and 8–10% for diazinon and parathion, respectively. The limits of quantification and detection were obtained to be 0.015 and 0.005 μg L−1 for diazinon, and 0.020 and 0.007 μg L−1 for parathion. A good linearity range (r2 ˃ 0.993) was obtained in the range of 0.015–3.000 and 0.020–3.000 μg L−1 for diazinon and parathion, respectively. The high enrichment factors were obtained as 3150 and 2965 for diazinon and parathion, respectively. This method showed high sensitivity with good recovery values (between 87 and 99%) for the extraction of target analytes in the real samples. Overall, the results revealed that the developed DLLME–SPME method had better extraction efficiency than DLLME and SPME alone.

1 Introduction

The analysis of compounds at ultra-trace level encouraged the researchers to develop new sample preparation methods in the separation science. In the last two decades, several microextraction methods have been introduced for the sample preparation and preconcentration of various organic and inorganic analytes. Basically, microextraction methods are divided in two general categories: i) sorbent-based techniques such as solid–phase extraction (SPE) [1], micro solid–phase extraction (-SPE) [2], stir–bar sorptive extraction [3], and solid–phase microextraction (SPME) [4]; and ii) solvent-based methods such as single–drop microextraction [5], hollow–fiber liquid–phase microextraction [6], and dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (DLLME) [7].

SPME was introduced by Pawliszyn and co-workers in 1990 [4]. In this method, the analyte is extracted by a sorbent coated on a fiber. Based on the vapor pressure of the target analytes, SPME can be applied in the headspace or immersion mode. The main advantages of SPME include simplicity, the feature of being solvent-free, high enrichment factor, capability of the analysis of analytes in different types of matrices (gas, liquid and solid), in vivo sampling and easy automation. The polarity of the fiber coating can be a quasi-selective parameter for the extraction of polar, semi-polar and non-polar compounds. Therefore, the choice of sorbent phase can offer selectivity in this method. On the other hand, SPME has a few considerable limitations; for example, there are limited polarsorbent coatings for the extraction of polar analytes [8]; also the addition of salt, existence of non-volatile particles, the use of the organic solvent, and acidic or basic solution may damage the fiber coating. Further, the partitioning of the analyte among the sample, headspace and fiber coating can affect the extraction efficiency [9,10]. In complex matrices (e.g. foodstuff and biological samples), the macro molecules and other particles are immobilized on the surface of the fiber coating. This effect lead to damaging the coating structure and/or loss of some adsorption sites on the fiber coating, finally decreasing the extraction efficiency. Despite the above mentioned limitations, the high recovery in complex matrices with low relative standard deviation (RSD) can be regarded as the important features that make SPME a favorable method in analytical chemistry.

Dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction as a high-performance technique was introduced by Assadi and co-workers in 2006 [7]. Briefly, in this method, a low volume of extraction and disperser solvents is mixed and rapidly injected into an aqueous sample. A cloudy solution is formed and then the solution is centrifuged. So, analytes are extracted with small volume of the extraction solvent. High enrichment factor and clean-up efficiency, short extraction time and easy performance are the main advantages ofthis method. Based on the density of the solvent extraction, DLLME can be performed using both low-density and high-density solvents [11,12]. Besides the good advantages, DLLME is suffering from some limitations. The matrix effect and the use of toxic solvents are the main drawbacks of DLLME; the particles or non-volatile compounds can be introduced into the analytical instrument by liquid injection, resulting in instrumental malefaction. Additionally, after the centrifuge step, the collected extraction solvent is about 10–50 L and just a portion of it (∼1 L) can be injected to the detection system. This results in a considerable reduction of sensitivity, thereby making analysis more challenging, especially in ultra-trace scales in complex samples. Generally, most studies in the field of sample preparation have been published annually with the subjects of DLLME and SPME. According to the privileges and capabilities of the two described methods, it can be of interest to have the advantages of both methods together, as a novel designed method, while their drawbacks can be lessened. To promote the extraction and clean-up capability of the sample preparation step, a few combined methods such as solid–liquid phase microextraction (SLME) and combination of DLLME with SPE and -SPE as sorbent-based extraction techniques have been previously reported for the extraction of different compounds in various samples [13–15]. SLME has advantages like high enrichment factor, easy performance, feature of being no memory effect and no stripping ofthe coating. However, this method suffers from the limitations for the selection of solid sorbent and analysis of high volatile compounds. Also, the main benefits of DLLME with SPE and -SPE are high enrichment factor and high clean up capability. But, the challenges of two mentioned methods are use of large sample and solvent volumes, multi-step procedure and need the vacuum. More importantly, using the large volumes of toxic organic solvents are risky and unfriendly for the environment. Therefore, it is desirable to develop a combined method to obtain a better extraction efficiency with green aspects.
