Abstract

Being suspected to have carcinogenic and estrogenic properties, the determination of phthalate esters in various environmental samples is very important for environmental risk assessment. In the present paper, a new solid-phase extraction system for HPLC determination of di-ethyl-phthalate, di-n-propyl-phthalate, di-iso-butyl-phthalate, and di-cyclohexyl-phthalate was developed. The four analytes were quantitatively adsorbed on multi-walled carbon nanotubes packed cartridge, then the analytes were quantitatively desorbed with acetonitrile, finally the analytes in acetonitrile eluate were determined by HPLC. Parameters influencing the extraction efficiency such as volume of sample solutions and eluent volume, were examined. Under the optimized conditions, detection limits of 0.18-0.86 ng ml(-1) were achieved for four phthalate esters. The proposed method had been used to determine the four phthalate esters in tap water, river water, and sea water samples. No phthalate esters were found in the river water and sea water samples. For the case of tap water sample, di-ethyl-phthalate, di-n-propyl-phthalate, and di-cyclohexyl-phthalate were not found, only 2.0 ng ml(-1) of di-iso-butyl-phthalate was found. The accuracy of the proposed method was tested by recovery measurements on spiked samples, the recoveries of 80.3-104.5% were obtained in most cases. (C) 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

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.
