In this study, three covalent organic frameworks (COFs) were synthesized using 2, 4, 6-triformylphloroglucinol with ethidium bromide (EB) containing positively charged groups, 3, 5-diaminobenzoic acid (DABA) containing negatively charged groups, and p-phenylenediamine (Pa) lacking charged groups. These were named EB-COFs, TpPa-1, and DP-COFs, respectively, and were employed as adsorbents for the extraction and identification of cationic dyes. The adsorption performance of the three COFs toward methylene blue (MB) and crystal violet (CV) was investigated. By incorporating carboxyl groups into DP-COFs, the surface chemistry of the adsorbent was effectively tailored, enabling complete exploitation of selective cationic sites. This facilitated dynamic interactions with cationic dyes through multiple adsorption mechanisms, including electrostatic, π-π, and H-bonding interactions. DP-COFs exhibited high adsorption capacities for MB and CV, achieving 383 and 326 mg g^-1, respectively. The adsorption behavior was further analyzed using adsorption isothermals, kinetics, and thermodynamics. Moreover, DP-COFs were employed as a matrix in laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (LDI-TOF MS) to adsorb and directly identify both cationic dyes without the need for an elution process. This approach demonstrated high sensitivity, high reproducibility, low background interference, and excellent salt tolerance. The limits of detection for MB and CV were 0.12 and 0.04 ng mL^-1, respectively, representing improvements of 166-fold and 225-fold compared with using DP-COFs solely as a matrix.

Herein, we developed and validated a novel LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous analysis of four BTKis including ibrutinib (IBR), zanubrutinib (ZAN), orelabrutinib (ORE), and acalabrutinib (ACB) and active metabolite of IBR and ACB (DIH and ACBM, respectively) in human plasma.

Chromatographic separation was obtained on an XBridge C18 column and connected to an LC-30AD system coupled to an API 4000⁺ mass spectrometer.

In this work, six identical polar organic chemical integrative samplers in seawater were deployed to understand the importance of the sorbent transfer method prior to the elution step. A common \"wet transfer\" with ultra-pure water was compared to a less diffused \"dry-transfer,\" assessing recoveries and matrix effects of 38 target compounds of emerging concern, including polar pesticides, recreational and food-related substances, pharmaceuticals, industrial additives, and ultra-violet (UV) filters. The dry-transfer procedure generally allowed better recoveries, especially for the more polar compounds, without affecting matrix effects (which remained in the range 40-130%). Along with the recovery assessment, the analysis of the non-spiked sorbent extracts revealed traces of many of the targeted emerging contaminants, quantifying perfluorooctanoic acid, UV-filters, carbamazepine, diclofenac, and triclosan. Furthermore, other compounds were found below their limits of quantitation. Ten analytes were detected only in the extracts of the dry-transferred passive samplers, highlighting the importance of applying this protocol, especially when dealing with polar compounds.
