Solid−Liquid Extraction Laser Excited Time-Resolved Shpol'skii Spectrometry:  A Facile Method for the Direct Detection of 15 Priority Pollutants in Water Samples

Abstract: A unique method for monitoring polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons is reported for routine analysis of water samples. The assay consists of a three-step procedure. One hundred milliliters of water is processed through an octadecyl extraction membrane via solid-liquid extraction. The pollutants are eluted with 5 mL of n-hexane and directly determined in the eluting solvent by laser excited time-resolved Shpol'skii spectrometry. Seventy-seven K fluorescence measurements are made with the aid of an optical fiber pro… Show more

“…Attractive features include a simple experimental procedure and compatibility with portable instrumentation. Due to the non-destructive nature of luminescence measurements, extraction membranes can be brought to the lab for subsequent sample elution and fluorophore confirmation via high-resolution techniques [9][10][11][12].…”

“…Recently, Campiglia and coworkers (149)(150)(151)(152)(153)(154)(155)(156) resurrected the use of Shpol'skii spectrometry for the determination of PAHs. Whereas none of the early studies of Shpol'skii spectrometry focused on the EPA 16 PAHs, most of the efforts of Campiglia and coworkers (149)(150)(151)(152)(153)(154)(155)(156) were directed towards this list of PAHs.…”

“…Whereas none of the early studies of Shpol'skii spectrometry focused on the EPA 16 PAHs, most of the efforts of Campiglia and coworkers (149)(150)(151)(152)(153)(154)(155)(156) were directed towards this list of PAHs. In the early 2000s they reported improved methodology for laser-excited time-resolved Shpol'skii spectrometry (LETRSS) of PAHs at 77 K (liquid nitrogen) and 4.2 K (liquid helium) based on cryogenic fiber optic probes in the sample, excitation with frequency doubled tunable dye laser, and detection using an intensified coupled device (155).…”

“…In cases where the exact sample composition was unknown and the formulation of a correct blank for lifetime background subtraction was impossible, the fluorescence decay at the base of the target peak was used for background subtraction at the target wavelength. The accuracy of this procedure was investigated previously (18). Origin software (version 5, Microcal Software, Inc.) was used for curve fitting of fluorescence lifetimes.…”
