A rapid and effective method, the dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction(DLLME) with gas chromatography, has been developed for the extraction and determination of OCP in environmental water samples. The factors relevant to the efficiency of DLLME were investigated and optimized. Under the optimum conditions, such as 150μL of dichloromethane as extraction solvent, 1.2 mL acetone as dispersive agent, 8 minutes extraction time, and without salt addition, the linear response of this method was in the range of 0.5~5000μg L−1 (r = 0.9981), the relative standard deviation (RSD) for 500μg L−1 and 1000μg L−1 of OCP was 5.2% and 12.6% (n = 6), respectively. The detection limit (3σ) was 0.08 μg L−1. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of trace amount of OCP in three kinds of real environmental water samples, the spiked recoveries were in the range of 87.4%~108.0%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
