“…The popular choice of mass selective detector for most environmental analysis is because of its specificity and discrete monitoring capabilities; particularly when operated in the selective-ion mode (63). As part of its wide-reaching application, GC/MS has been used in environmental monitoring programmes to assess sediment quality in terms of concentration of total PAHs (64), to investigate the amount of PAHs in the topsoil of a tar-contaminated industrial site (65), for the fingerprinting analysis of some environmental sediments containing unsaturated priority PAHs [66], and to monitor the bioremediation of PAH-contaminated soil through invessel composting with fresh organic wastes (67). But, despite its widespread application, a major drawback of the GC/MS is that it requires volatile and thermally stable analytes; as such, only about 10 % of organics are amenable to GC/MS analysis (68).…”

In the analysis of petroleum hydrocarbon-contaminated soils for total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), the role spectroscopic and non-spectroscopic techniques play are inseparable. Therefore, spectroscopic techniques cannot be discussed in isolation. In this report, spectroscopic techniques including Raman, fluorescence, infrared, visible-near-infrared spectroscopies, as well as mass spectroscopy (coupled to a gas chromatograph), and non-spectroscopic techniques such as gravimetric, immunoassay and gas chromatography with flame ionization detection are reviewed. To bridge the perceived gap in coverage of the quantitative applications of the vis-NIR spectroscopy in the rapid determination of TPHs and PAHs in soils, a detailed review of studies from the period 1999-2012 are presented. This report also highlights the strength and limitations of these techniques and evaluates their performance from the perspectives of their attributes of general applicability, namely: economic, portability, operational time, accuracy, and occupational health and safety considerations. Overall, the fluorescence spectroscopic technique had the best performance (85% total score) in comparison to others, while the gravimetric technique performed the least (60% total score). Method-specific solutions geared towards performance improvement have also been suggested.

“…To investigate the performance of the proposed MSPE method, MNPs/TEOS-CNPrTEOS as adsorbent was compared with some other recently reported methods [15,[23][24][25][29][30][31]. As it is obvious in Supporting Information Table S1, the proposed method offers 2500, 500, 70, and 65 times lower LODs compared with Ti-CNPrTEOS, PDMS-CNPrTEOS, Carbograph, and SiO 2 /C 3 -CN, respectively, which were reported in other studies.…”

The precise control of pesticide residues in foodstuffs depends significantly on the clean extraction of analytes using specifically designed separation methods. In this study, a one-pot sol-gel process was used for the preparation of a magnetic hybrid silica gel tetraethylortho silicate-cyanopropyltriethoxy silane nanocomposite. The prepared material was characterized using energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, single-point specific surface area, and scanning electron microcopy. The synthesized magnetic hybrid material was used as a solid phase extraction sorbent for the extraction and preconcentration of some organophosphorus pesticides before gas chromatography with a microelectron capture detector. The performance of the proposed magnetic solid-phase extraction technique was validated by linearity (0.05-2 ng/mL), correlation coefficients (r = 0.9993-0.9997), limit of detection (0.02-0.06 ng/mL, S/N = 3, n = 3), and intraday (RSD = 1.5-8.7%, n = 3) and interday precision (RSD = 5.5-9.3%, n = 12), while the recovery in real samples and equilibrium adsorption capacity was 72.02-103.84% and 8-20 mg/g, respectively. The magnetic solid-phase extraction based on the hybrid nanocomposite revealed a high enrichment factor, an appropriate dynamic range, and great absorptive ability toward the selected organophosphorus pesticides spiked in real water samples.

“…Several commercially available SPE cartridges were evaluated to identify the optimal packing media and minimize consumption of solvents. Previous work has shown that selective SPE cartridges were a good alternative to traditional glass packed columns for the fractionation of petroleum oil into aliphatic and aromatic fractions 26. Table 1 reports the test results of fractionation efficiencies for selected representative target aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, and major FAMEs for selected SPE cartridges under various solvent volume and eluent polarities.…”

A method based on the combination of solid-phase extraction (SPE) with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS) for detailed chemical fingerprinting of biodiesel/petrodiesel blends was developed in the present study. Forensic identification, commonly referred to as chemical fingerprinting, is based on the relative distributions of individual aliphatic hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, fatty acid alkyl esters, and free sterols. Fractionation of fuel samples is optimized for the separation of fatty acid esters and free sterols from petroleum hydrocarbons into four fractions: aliphatic, aromatic, fatty acid ester, and polar components. The final recoveries of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons were determined to be in the range of 65-103%, 73-105% for FAMEs, and 78-103% for free sterols in the polar fraction. Excellent separation with negligible crossover of components with different polarities between fractions was observed. Quantitative analysis of blend levels and individual chemical distribution were achieved. The method has great potential for the identification of biodiesel in diesel fuel blends and could form the basis of a method for characterization of biodiesel-contaminated environmental samples.
