Sampling from liquid phases

Liquid extractions:1. Batch liquid-liquid extraction

Headspace sampling:• Static headspace (high concentrations)• Dynamic headspace (low-moderate concentrations)• Purge-and Trap (low concentrations)

Solid phase extractions:2. SPE – Solid Phase Extraction (transfer to another solvent)3. SPME – Solid Phase Micro-Extraction (solventless)

Solvent Extraction

1 Add immisibleextracting solvent

Repeat these steps 1 to 3 times

Combine the extracts and evaporate to reduce the volume

2 Shake or mixthoroughly

3 Separate the 2phases

Miscibility of solvents

Miscible if the two solvents can be mixed in all proportions without forming two phases

Solid Phase Extraction - SPE

Retention A liquid sample passed through a short column of solid sorbent, where the desired compounds are sorbed

Conditioning The sorbent is wetted and rinsed by the eluting solvent

Rinse Unwanted compounds are rinsed by elution with a suitable solvent

Elution The analytes are eluted by a suitable eluent

Acetonitrile

Water

Water samples

Methanol/water

Acetonitrile

The sorbent is conditioned by a pure solvent like the matrix

Page 8: Analytical Toxicology Instrumentation and Methodologies.

Solid phases for SPE

Most materials are bonded phases attached covalently to big porous silica particles(o.d. 50 m surface 50 m2g-1)

Non-polar sorbents (reversed phase):• C18 – C8 – C6 – C4 – C2• Cyclohexyl• Phenyl• Cyanoprolyl

Polar sorbents (normal phase):• Cyanopropyl• Bare Silica• Diol• Aminoalkyl

Ion exchange sorbents:• Strong Anion eXchanger• Strong Cation eXchanger• Weak anion- and cation exchangers

Endcapped sorbents:• accessible –SiOH are reacted

with trimethyl silane

SPE – Modes and eluents

Change of sample polarity:• dilute with appropriate solvent• exchange solvent by SPE

Sorption of analytes:• In situ extraction from headspace

or liquid samples• 1-60 min• NO SOLVENTS USED !

Thermal desorption:• Splitless injection in GC• (Interface for HPLC are known)

Liquid Stationary PhasesLiquid Stationary Phases

In general, the polarity of the stationary phase should In general, the polarity of the stationary phase should match that of the sample constituents ("like" dissolves match that of the sample constituents ("like" dissolves "like"). Most stationary phases are based on "like").
