Bisphenol A (BPA) is a xenoestrogen that widely used in manufacture of plastics. Concern is mounting up when the application of BPA is widespread. A simple sample pre-treatment technique termed membrane-protected liquid phase microextraction (MP-LPME) combined with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-fluorescence detection (FD) was developed for the determination of BPA in beverages and environmental water samples. The MP-LPME technique utilized a nylon membrane to hold the extractant (1-octanol) and prevent the extractant from dissolution into sample solution during agitation. Under optimal extraction conditions, the MP-LPME-HPLC-FD demonstrated ultratrace detection of BPA and insignificant matrix effect extraction with good relative recoveries in the range of 87.1-99.7% from spiked beverage and environmental water samples. The membrane can be reapplied in the MP-LPME after the first usage and offered relative recovery of > 94%. The MP-LPME technique is eco-friendly as it consumes only minute amounts of organic solvent which is supportive to green analysis.
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.
