Analysis of triazine in water samples by solid-phase microextraction coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography.
Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the determination of triazine is described. Carbowax/templated resin (CW/TPR, 50mum), polydimethylsiloxane/divinylbenzene (PDMS/DVB, 60mum), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS, 100mum), and polyacrylate (PA, 85mum) fibers were evaluated for extraction of the triazines. CW/TPR and PDMS/DVB fibers were selected for further study. Several parameters of the extraction and desorption procedure were studied and optimized (such as types of fibers, desorption mode, desorption time, compositions of solvent for desorption, soaking periods and the flow rate during desorption period, extraction time, temperature, pH, and ionic strength of samples). Both CW/TPR and PDMS/DVB fibers are acceptable; a simple calibration-curve method based on simple aqueous standards can be used. The linearity of this method for analyzing standard solution has been investigated over the range 5-1000ngmL(-1) for both PDMS/DVB and CW/TPR fibers. All the correlation coefficients in the range 5-1000ngmL(-1) were better than 0.995 except Simazine and Atratone by CW/TPR fiber. The R.S.D.s range from 4.4% to 8.8 % (PDMS/DVB fiber) and from 2.4% to 7.2% (CW/TPR fiber). Method-detection limits (MDL) are in the range 1.2-2.6 and 2.8-3.4ngmL(-1) for the two fibers. These methods were applied to the determination of trazines in environmental water samples (lake water).
