Digests were suitable for Cl, Br, and I determination by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) or inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). Fluorine determination was performed with ion selective electrode (ISE). The power radiation and the digestion solution were evaluated. The accuracy was evaluated by comparing the results with those obtained after neutron activation analysis (NAA) for Cl and Br or using microwave-induced combustion (MIC) as sample preparation for F and I. Two certified reference materials (CRM) of low-density polyethylene (ERM EC680k and EC681k) were evaluated, and no differences were observed (<em>t</em>-test, 95% confidence level) between the results and the certified values. Quantitative recoveries for Cl, Br, and I were obtained using 200 mg of the sample using diluted acid solution (15 mL of 0.5 mol L⁻¹ HNO₃ plus 10.6 mol L⁻¹ of H₂O₂), with a 40 min radiation program (700 W, 25 min ramp). No statistical differences (ANOVA, 95% confidence level) were observed between the MAWD-UV and ICP-MS results and the reference values for Cl, Br, and I for several samples. However, results were lower than the reference values for fluorine, indicating that digestion efficiency was poor for this analyte, which was probably as an organic molecule (likely polytetrafluoroethylene). The limit of quantification (LOQ) was 0.216 mg g⁻¹ for Cl, 3.33 µg g⁻¹ for Br, and 0.036 µg g⁻¹ for I using ICP-MS. The main advantage of MAWD-UV is that it enables decomposing several polymer-based matrices using diluted acid without halogen losses. The developed method represents an important contribution to the digestion of these hard-to-digest matrices and in compliance with green analytical chemistry, thereby being an advance in sample preparation.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100052,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Sample Preparation","volume":"4 ","pages":"Article 100038"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772582022000353/pdfft?md5=9172df7e09c50ff85ea0f156b3553e74&pid=1-s2.0-S2772582022000353-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82265909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Herein, the dichromate solution was used as the detection reagent to determine the ethanol concentration in alcoholic beverages. The ethanol from the sample solution was purged by the airstream and then trapped into a 1-mL Eppendorf tube containing the detection reagent. During the process, ethanol is oxidized by dichromate reagent to form ethanoic acid, and the orange color of the dichromate ion is started to become darker after one minute. The color image of the Eppendorf tube was taken by smartphone in a controlled-light box and then analyzed by the laptop ImageJ software. Experimental parameters affecting the method sensitivity, such as extraction time, stirring rate, and dichromate concentration, were studied. Under the optimal conditions, the calibration curve was linear for the ethanol concentrations ranging from 0.15 and 3.0 %v/v (R² &gt;0.993). The limit of detection of 0.05 %v/v was obtained. The intra- and inter-assay results (RSD%) were less than 1.0% and 2.0%, respectively. The developed approach has been successfully applied to determine ethanol percentage in beverage samples (alcoholic beer, brandy, and non-alcoholic beer), with relative recoveries ranging from 86-112%.

The developed model is mainly based on existing theory and previous research on the numerical modeling of SPME. Fuller method was used to estimate diffusion coefficients in air as well as pores and voids of the coating. Coating-headspace distribution constants were estimated using linear solvation energy relationship (LSER) model and multiple regression obtained by Prikryl and Sevcik. Headspace-water constants were estimated using vapor pressures and activity coefficients were determined using UNIFAC model. Wilke and Chang method was chosen for estimating diffusion coefficients in water without stirring. Liss and Slater, and Southworth approaches were tested for estimating mass transfer coefficients at the headspace-water boundary under stirring. Southworth approach allowed obtaining benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene and <em>o</em>-xylene (BTEX) extraction profiles from water, which were closest to experimental profiles compared to other approaches. When using Southworth approach, root mean square deviation (RMSD) between experimental and simulated values for BTEX were 8.7–10% indicating the high accuracy of the model. The developed model was successfully applied for computational optimization of extraction parameters (stirring speed, fiber insertion depth, pressure, sample volume and the concentration of added salt). After minor modification, the model was also applied for optimization of preincubation time. It can be recommended for optimization of HSSPME-based analytical methods for VOCs quantification in water.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100052,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Sample Preparation","volume":"3 ","pages":"Article 100030"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2772582022000274/pdfft?md5=5e769489827f812271e87920feb3831b&pid=1-s2.0-S2772582022000274-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90327463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
