Additionally, the sensor exhibited a detection limit (LOD) of 0.59 nmol L-1 and a quantification limit (LOQ) of 2.00 nmol L-1. The studies on reproducibility and repeatability revealed RSDs of 1.63% and 3.61% respectively.

After sample decomposition, ammonium o,o-diethyl dithiophosphate (DDTP) was used to complex the analytes and Triton X-114 as a non-ionic surfactant in CPE for matrix separation and extraction.

Parameters such as pH, complexing agent and surfactant concentrations, acid medium, complexation time, and type of diluent were evaluated. The obtained results indicated that the ratio DDTP:As was 3:1, DDTP:Cd and DDTP:Pb was 2:1, and DDTP:Se was 1:1.

Throughout history, women have faced numerous barriers and challenges to enter and stand out in this field of knowledge. However, despite the difficulties, women have contributed significantly to scientific advancement in all areas. In Brazil, the discussion about the participation of women in science has been highlighted in national events around analytical chemistry and academia. Thus, some changes have been implemented to minimize the differences discussed herein. Today we see more and more women engaged in science, holding prominent positions as researchers, professors, and leaders in their fields. They exist in many scientific disciplines, including physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics, engineering, and technology. In addition, women have also been involved in emerging and interdisciplinary areas such as computer science, artificial intelligence, and biotechnology. It is crucial to promote gender equality in chemistry by providing an inclusive environment and encouraging the active participation of women. This can be achieved by implementing policies that promote equal opportunities, encouraging female role models and mentors, supporting women chemists' training and professional development, and valuing and recognizing their contributions. Women's participation in chemistry is essential to scientific advancement in this field. We bring unique perspectives, creativity, and skills to address chemical challenges and contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of chemical processes and their practical applications. Gender diversity in chemistry drives innovation and promotes a more prosperous and inclusive scientific environment. It is essential to provide equal opportunities, support, and encouragement for women to enter and thrive in academic careers in the exact sciences, thus strengthening female representation in this field and boosting scientific excellence. In this context, the BrJAC journal worked on organizing an issue dedicated to women researchers in the field of (bio)analytical chemistry. The central idea is to celebrate those female researchers who have worked hard and dedicatedly in analytical chemistry.

For Fe extraction by DLLME, the type and volume of extraction solvent, sample volume, type of complexing agent, sample pH, salting out effect, and the number of washing cycles after extraction were evaluated. Thus, after optimization, 10 mL of beer, 75 µL of 1,2-dichlorobenzene of extraction solvent, 500 µL of 0.5% (w/v) pyrrolidine ammonium dithiocarbamate (APDC) as complexing agent were used. It is important to mention that pH adjustment, salt addition or washing cycles were no required. For Fe determination after DLLME, an external calibration curve was performed (R2 > 0.99) by direct extracts (reference solutions through DLLME) introduction in the conventional nebulization system of F AAS instrument. The accuracy evaluation was performed by results comparison with those obtained after microwave-assisted digestion (MAD) and Fe determination by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The Fe concentration in the studied samples ranged from 59.7 to 68.2 µg L-1 and the limit of quantification for DLLME/F AAS method was 9.0 µg L-1.
