In this research, a new microextraction method based on the solidification of settled organic drop (SSOD) was developed by coupling a novel tailor-made ultra-hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent (DES) with effervescence assisted emulsification microextraction.

A fast and efficient method was developed for the extraction and determination of organophosphorus pesticides in water samples. Organophosphorus pesticides were extracted by solid-phase extraction using magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes and determined by gas chromatography with ion-trap mass spectrometry. Parameters affecting the extraction were investigated. Under optimum conditions of the method, 10 mg magnetic multi-walled carbon nanotubes were added into 10 mL sample. After 2 min, adsorbent particles settled at the bottom of test tube with a magnet. After removing aqueous supernatant, the analytes were desorbed with acetonitrile. Then, 70 μL of acetonitrile phase was injected into the gas chromatography and mass spectrometry system that had an ion-trap analyzer. To achieve high sensitivity, the large-volume-injection technique was used with a programmed temperature vaporization inlet, and the ion-trap mass spectrometer was operated in single ion storage mode. Under the best conditions, the enrichment factors and extraction recoveries were in the range of 113-124 and 74-103%, respectively. The limits of detection were between 3 and 15 ng/L, and the relative standard deviations were < 10%. This method was successfully used for the determination of organophosphorus pesticides in dam water, lagoon water, and river water samples with good reproducibility and recovery.
