Abstract

A deep eutectic solvent based magnetic nanofluid was coupled with stir bar sorptive dispersive microextraction as a hyphenated sample preparation technique. The neodymium core magnetic stir bar was coated physically with nanofluid of magnetic carbon nanotube nanocomposites and deep eutectic solvents. The prepared nanofluid has magnetic and strong sorbing properties and is compatible with gas chromatography. In this nanofluid, the deep eutectic solvent acts simultaneously as both carrier and stabilizer for magnetic nanotubes. The predominant experimental variables affecting the extraction efficiency of nitroaromatic compounds were evaluated. Under the optimized conditions, the limit of detection and enrichment factor were in the range of 0.2–4.9 ng/L and 852–1480, respectively. The relative standard deviations were between 5.6 and 10.2% (n = 6). Method validation was performed by both spiking–recovery method and comparison of results with other methods. Finally, the proposed method was successfully applied for the extraction and pre‐concentration of nitroaromatic explosives in water samples, followed by determination by gas chromatography with micro‐electron capture detection.

  • In the fluids, HDES acted simultaneously as both carrier and stabilizer for magnetic nanotubes.

    “In the fluids, HDES acted simultaneously as both carrier and stabilizer for magnetic nanotubes.”

    From Hydrophobic deep eutectic solvents in microextraction techniques–A review (2020) · cites this paper as [136]

    Section 2.5 says magnetic multiwalled carbon nanotubes were dispersed in resorcinol–choline chloride DES, supporting its role as the carrier. The Introduction describes the intended nanofluid as stable, but our copy does not identify the solvent as HDES or establish that it acted specifically as a stabilizer. (LLM, conf=0.82)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Zarei et al. reported LODs for 2-NT, 3-NT, 2,6-DNT, 2,4-DNT, and TNT of 4.92, 3.19, 0.25, 0.45, and 0.22 ng/L, respectively.

    “The LOD of the analytes were 4.92 for 2-NT, 3.19 for 3-NT, 0.25 for 2,6-DNT, 0.45 for 2,4-DNT, and 0.22 ng/L for TNT.”

    From Microextraction Techniques with Deep Eutectic Solvents (2020) · cites this paper as [71]

    Table 1, reproduced in section 3.5 (page not available), gives the claimed LODs in ng/L for 2-NT, 3-NT, 2,6-DNT, and 2,4-DNT. The table text in our copy cuts off before a TNT row, and section 3.4 gives only an overall LOD range; neither verifies the claimed 0.22 ng/L for TNT. (LLM, conf=0.88)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • Zarei et al. reported linear ranges of 20-1500 ng/L, 15-1500 ng/L, 1-1500 ng/L, 2-1500 ng/L, and 1-1500 ng/L for 2-NT, 3-NT, 2,6-DNT, 2,4-DNT, and TNT, respectively.

    “The related linear ranges were between 20–1500 ng/L, 15–1500 ng/L, 1–1500 ng/L, 2–1500 ng/L, and 1–1500 ng/L, respectively, for each target compound.”

    From Microextraction Techniques with Deep Eutectic Solvents (2020) · cites this paper as [71]

    Table 1, reproduced in section 3.5, gives the claimed linear ranges for 2-NT, 3-NT, 2,6-DNT, and 2,4-DNT. Section 3.4 says linearity was investigated up to 1500 ng/L, but the TNT row is absent from our copy of Table 1, so its claimed lower limit of 1 ng/L cannot be verified. (LLM, conf=0.88)

    Experimental — accuracy not yet measured
  • The prepared nanofluid was characterized by strong magnetic and sorbing properties, providing high extraction efficiency and low LOD and LOQ values.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
