Fast determination of chlorogenic acid in tobacco residues using microwave-assisted extraction and capillary zone electrophoresis technique.
In this work, for the first time, capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) technique combined with microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) was developed for the fast quantification of chlorogenic acid (CA) in tobacco residues. CA in tobacco residue samples were extracted by MAE technique, and then analyzed by CZE. As a new sample preparation method for tobacco residues, the MAE procedure is optimized, validated and compared with conventional methods including ultrasonic extraction (USE) and reflux extraction (RE). It is found that MAE gives the best result due to the highest extraction efficiency within shortest extraction time (only 4.0 min). Here, CA is determined by CZE based on the calibration curve of its authentic standard. The method linearity, detection limit, precision and recovery are studied. The results show that the combined MAE and CZE method has a linearity (R(2) 0.991, 0.003-0.5 mg ml(-1)), a limit of detection (0.003 mg ml(-1)), a limit of quantification (0.01 mg ml(-1)), good precision (R.S.D.=4.28%) and a finer recovery (89.0%). The proposed method was successfully applied to the analysis of CA in tobacco residue samples. The experiment results have demonstrated that the CZE combined with MAE is a convenient, fast, economical and reliable method for the determination of CA in tobacco residues.
