Optimisation And Validation Of A New Microextraction Method Employing Surfactant For The Determination Of Selected Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) In Sugarcane Samples

In the present study, a microextraction method termed ultrasound-assisted surfactant enhanced emulsification microextraction (UASEME) has been developed for the determination of phenanthrene (PHE) and fluoranthene (FLU) in sugarcane samples. Optimised extractions were obtained using the following co...

description In the present study, a microextraction method termed ultrasound-assisted surfactant enhanced emulsification microextraction (UASEME) has been developed for the determination of phenanthrene (PHE) and fluoranthene (FLU) in sugarcane samples. Optimised extractions were obtained using the following conditions: extraction solvent, toluene; volume of extraction solvent, 30 μL; surfactant, Tween 20; volume of surfactant, 15 μL; extraction time; 2 min and with no salt addition. Under the optimized conditions, the method demonstrated good linearity (r2 ≥ 0.9932) over a concentration range of 1 to 1000 μg L- 1.
