[PMID: 38759280 DOI: 10.1016/j.jhazmat.2024.134609] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/29/2024] [Revised: 05/11/2024] [Accepted: 05/11/2024] [Indexed: 05/19/2024]
Abstract
Simultaneous rapid screening of multiple drugs of abuse in environmental water facilitates effective monitoring and trend assessments. Herein, a novel porphyrin-based metal organic frameworks modified Ti3C2Tx nanosheets (Cu-TCPP/Ti3C2Tx) composite was prepared and utilized as solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coating for the simultaneous analysis of 21 drugs from water samples. The composite was embedded with matrix-compatible polyacrylonitrile binder to prepare a coated blade with thin and uniform coating layer. Ambient mass spectrometry (MS) technique was used to create a coated blade spray-MS (CBS-MS) method for the quantitative determination of drugs in water samples. High throughput and automated sample preparation were achieved with the use of a Concept 96-well plate system, enabling analysis of 21 drugs of abuse within 1 min per sample, while using only 8 µL of organic solvent for desorption and CBS-MS detection. The developed method showed favorable linearity (R2 ≥ 0.9983) in the range of 0.05 to 10 ng mL-1, low limits of detection (1.5-9.0 ng L-1), sufficient recovery (67.6-133.2%), as well as satisfactory precision (RSDs≤13.5%). This study not only delivers a novel and efficient SPME coating composite, but also demonstrates the excellent performance of a high-throughput, efficient, and green analytical method for determination of drugs in environmental water.

[PMID: 38838562 DOI: 10.1016/j.talanta.2024.126344] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2024] [Revised: 05/29/2024] [Accepted: 05/30/2024] [Indexed: 06/07/2024]
Abstract
A magnetic MXene aerogel (Fe3O4@MXene@PEI) was prepared by crosslinking amino modified MXene with polyethyleneimine using epichlorohydrin as a cross-linker. Adsorption properties of Fe3O4@MXene@PEI aerogel for phenolic acids were evaluated by adsorption kinetics and isotherms experiments, showing that the high adsorption affinity was governed by multilayer chemisorption process. An efficient MSPE/HPLC method was developed for the determination of phenolic acids with excellent selectivity, good linearity (0.025-5.0 μg mL-1), low LODs (0.007-0.017 μg mL-1), and satisfactory recoveries (80.0-120.0 %). Moreover, the antioxidant activity of the Fe3O4@MXene@PEI purified compounds was superior to that of the conventional method as demonstrated by the results of scavenging experiments on 2,2 -diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging assay. Finally, 65 organic acids were identified in the Fe3O4@MXene@PEI treated honeysuckle extracts by UHPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap MS/MS analysis. The proposed sorbent exhibits remarkable promise for the selective separation and purification of organic acids from herbal products.

Abstract
A novel tryptophan-based porous polymer is designed and synthesized via a facile one-step hypercrosslinking polymerization process, and applied as sorbent for extraction of trace sulfonamides in foodstuffs. The developed polymer has high surface area, large conjugate system, and abundant functional groups (e.g., π-π stacking, hydrogen bonding, hydrophobic and electrostatic attraction interactions), which endow it with superior affinity and high adsorption capacity for sulfonamides (16.16-59.29 mg g-1). The optimized SPE method is coupled with HPLC-DAD to create a sensitive and efficient protocol that provides good linearity (R2 ≥ 0.9979), low limits of detection, satisfactory recoveries (92.5-109.5 %) and high precisions (RSDs < 8.24). In addition, the newly proposed method greatly reduces the amount of adsorbent (2.0 mg) and organic solvent (2.0 mL) used. Adsorption kinetics, isotherms, and simulation calculations studies further reveal the presence of monolayer adsorption, chemical adsorption process, and multiple interactions. Thus, this work presents a polymer capable of multiple interactions for the pretreatment of trace sulfonamides in foodstuffs.

Preparation of branched polyethyleneimine-assisted boronic acid-functionalized magnetic MXene for the enrichment of catecholamines in urine samples. J Sep Sci 2024; 47:e2300620.

Abstract
Herein, a magnetic borate-functionalized MXene composite with multiple boronic affinity sites was fabricated by embedding Fe3 O4 nanoparticles with 4-formylphenylboronic acid functionalized Ti3 C2 Tx nanosheets and served as sorbent for the simultaneous extraction of catecholamines (CAs) in urine samples. The morphology and structure of the magnetic materials were investigated using scanning microscopy, vibrating sample magnetometer, X-ray photoelectron spectrometer, and X-ray diffraction. The introduction of polyethyleneimine can amplify the bonded boronic acid groups, thereby effectively improving the adsorption capacities for CAs based on the multiple interactions of boronic affinity, hydrogen bonding, and metal coordination. The adsorption performance was investigated using the kinetics and isotherms models, and the main parameters that influence the extraction efficiency were optimized. Under the most favorable magnetic solid-phase extraction condition, a sensitive method for the analysis of CAs in urine samples was developed by combining magnetic solid-phase extraction conditions with high-performance liquid chromatography detection. The findings illustrated that the proposed approach possessed a wide linearity range of 0.05-250 ng/mL with an acceptable correlation coefficient (R2 ≥ 0.9984) and detection limits of 0.010-0.015 ng/mL for the target CAs. The research not only provides a notable composite with multiple boronic affinity sites but also offers an effective and feasible measure for the detection of CAs in biological samples.

Abstract
Urinary hydroxylated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (OH-PAHs) and catecholamines (CAs) are important biomarkers of PAHs exposure. In this study, a novel magnetic boronic acid hypercrosslinked composite (Fe3O4@HCP-BA) is synthesized using a facile one-pot strategy and applied as a sorbent for the simultaneous extraction of OH-PAHs and CAs in urine samples. The synthesized Fe3O4@HCP-BA composites are characterized by rich pore structure, highly specific surface area, good magnetic response, and excellent selectivity and adsorption efficiency (range: 65.26-496.71 and 1227.3-1581.8 µmol g-1 for CAs and OH-PAHs, respectively). The mechanisms governing the adsorption of the OH-PAHs and CAs to the Fe3O4@HCP-BA composites were systematically studied via adsorption kinetics, isotherm models, XPS characterization, and molecular simulation. The resultant Fe3O4@HCP-BA composite-based MSPE/HPLC-FLD method exhibited good linearity (R2 > 0.9916), low limits of detection (0.2-0.3 pg mL-1 and 0.2-0.3 ng mL-1 for OH-PAHs and CAs, respectively), and good precision (intra-day and inter-day RSDs < 11.1%). The analysis of CAs and OH-PAHs in the urine samples from 14 smokers and 14 non-smokers revealed a positive correlation between the concentrations of CAs and OH-PAHs. Our findings not only establish the proposed method as a green, environmentally friendly, and simple strategy for preparing magnetic adsorbents, but also confirm it as a promising alternative method for accurate determination of OH-PAHs and CAs in biological samples.

Abstract
Boronate affinity adsorbents are of great promise in the enrichment of small cis-diol-containing molecules (cis-diols) from biological matrices. This work develops a restricted-access boronate affinity mesoporous adsorbent, in which boronate sites are only distributed on the internal surface of mesopores and the external surface is a strongly hydrophilic layer. The adsorbent has high binding capacities (30.3 mg g-1, 22.9 mg g-1 and 14.9 mg g-1 for dopamine, catechol and adenosine, respectively) in spite of removal of the boronate sites on the external surface of adsorbent. The adsorption specific of adsorbent towards cis-diols was assessed by dispersive solid-phase extraction (d-SPE) method, and the results show that the adsorbent can selectively extract small cis-diols in the biosamples while exclude proteins completely. Under the optimal d-SPE, the nucleosides and cis-diol drugs in human serum were successfully analyzed by coupling d-SPE with high-performance liquid chromatography. Where, the detection limits are between 6.1 and 13.4 ng mL-1 for four nucleosides, and 24.9 and 34.3 ng mL-1 for two cis-diol drugs; the relative recoveries of all the analytes vary from 84.1% to 110.1% (RSDs <13.4%, n = 6). The results indicate that the adsorbent can directly treat the real biosamples without the necessary protein precipitation steps in advance, thus simplifying the analysis process.

Abstract
It is widely recognized that wastewater containing boron is an environmental issue. Therefore, the development of adsorbents with excellent adsorption capacity, stability, and recyclability is essential in water treatment applications. A Fe3O4/PDA/Ti3C2Tx/PEI/DHHA nanocomposite has been prepared that can be used to separate and recover boric acid by adjusting the pH of the solution, based on the affinity theory of boric acid and cis-diol. Through series characterization, it was determined that the adsorbent possessed good magnetic properties, high hydrophilicity and high loading capacities. In this study, 4-formylphenylboronic acid (FPBA) was selected as the model compound. The nanocomposite exhibited an adsorption equilibrium time of 10 h and an adsorption capacity of 98.99 mg/g at pH = 8.5 and 25 °C. The Langmuir isothermal model and the quasi-secondary kinetic model are both appropriate for describing the adsorption process. Thermodynamic results suggest that adsorption is a spontaneous chemisorption process. Furthermore, the nanocomposite retains good regeneration performance after five adsorption-desorption cycles.

Abstract
Catecholamines (CAs), including adrenaline, noradrenaline, and dopamine, are neurotransmitters and hormones that play a critical role in regulating the cardiovascular system, metabolism, and stress response in the human body. As promising methods for real-time monitoring of catecholamine neurotransmitters, LC-MS detectors have gained widespread acceptance and shown significant progress over the past few years. Other detection methods such as fluorescence detection, colorimetric assays, surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy, and surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy have also been developed to varying degrees. In addition, efficient pretreatment technology for CAs is flourishing due to the increasing development of many highly selective and recoverable materials. There are a few articles that provide an overview of electrochemical detection and efficient enrichment, but a comprehensive summary focusing on analytical detection technology is lacking. Thus, this review provides a comprehensive summary of recent analytical detection technology research on CAs published between 2017 and 2022. The advantages and limitations of relevant methods including efficient pretreatment technologies for biological matrices and analytical methods used in combination with pretreatment technology have been discussed. Overall, this review article provides a better understanding of the importance of accurate CAs measurement and offers perspectives on the development of novel methods for disease diagnosis and research in this field.

Abstract
The use of electrospinning has received much attention in the production of nanofiber webs due to its advantages such as flexibility and simplicity. The direct electrospinning of nanofibers in an aligned or twisted form and the production of nanofiber yarns can turn nanofibers into woven fabrics, which leads to an increase in the diversity of nanofiber applications and improves their end-use possibilities. In this work, a victorious nanofiber yarn spinning system was used with the help of a rotating funnel. Yarn formation was studied using a composited polyacrylonitrile (PAN)/MXene polymer solution ejected from two oppositely charged nozzles. Finaly their application for packed-in-tube solid-phase microextraction of β-blocker drugs from biofluids was demonstrated. The separation and quantification of analytes were performed by HPLC-UV instrument. The 3D-yarn PAN/MXene sorbent exhibited high flexibility, porosity, sorbent loading, mechanical stability, and a long lifetime. The characterization of the final nanofiber was carried out utilizing Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscope, energy-dispersive X-ray mapping, transmission electron microscope and X-ray diffraction analysis. Various parameters that affect the extraction efficiency, such as extraction time, pH, ionic strength and flow rate of sample solution, and type, volume and flow rate of eluent, were investigated and optimized. Under optimized conditions, the limits of detection were obtained in the range of 1.5-3.0 μg L-1. This method demonstrated appropriate linearity for β-blockers in the range of 5.0-1000.0 μg L-1, with coefficients of determination greater than 0.990. The inter- and intra-assay precisions (RSDs, for n = 3) are in the range of 2.5-3.5%, and 4.5-5.2%, respectively. Finally, the validated method was put in an application for the analysis of atenolol, propranolol and betaxolol in human urine and saliva samples at different hours and acceptable relative recoveries were obtained in the range of 89.5% to 110.4%.

Abstract
In this work, Friedel-Crafts alkylation was successfully applied to prepare a magnetic ionic liquid hypercrosslinked polymer composite (Fe3O4@IL-HCP), which was subsequently employed as magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) adsorbent for the isolation and enrichment of trace non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). The developed composite was comprehensively characterized using various techniques, with the results indicating that it possessed high saturation magnetization (39.44 em g - 1), large specific surface area (175 m2g - 1), and high adsorption capacity for NSAIDs. The adsorption behavior and mechanisms were also investigated in detail. NSAIDs were adsorbed onto the Fe3O4@IL-HCP sorbent via a heterogeneous multilayer process consisting of hydrogen bonding and π-π and electrostatic interactions. Additionally, the composite's large surface area and multiple active sites enabled extraction equilibrium within 6 min. By coupling with high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), the developed MSPE/HPLC method was applied for the determination of selected NSAIDs in water and urine samples. The developed method displayed wide linear ranges, low limits of detection (0.12-0.30 ng mL-1 and 0.15-1.5 ng mL-1 in water and urine samples, respectively), sufficient recoveries (92.8-109%), and good precision (relative standard deviations ≤ 4.6%). Thus, the findings of this work provide an appealing alternative for the extraction and determination of trace NSAIDs in environmental water and biological samples.

Abstract
Over 80% of wastewater worldwide is released into the environment without proper treatment. Whilst environmental pollution continues to intensify due to the increase in the number of polluting industries, conventional techniques employed to clean the environment are poorly effective and are expensive. MXenes are a new class of 2D materials that have received a lot of attention for an extensive range of applications due to their tuneable interlayer spacing and tailorable surface chemistry. Several MXene-based nanomaterials with remarkable properties have been proposed, synthesized, and used in environmental remediation applications. In this work, a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art research progress on the promising potential of surface functionalized MXenes as photocatalysts, adsorbents, and membranes for wastewater treatment is presented. The sources, composition, and effects of wastewater on human health and the environment are displayed. Furthermore, the synthesis, surface functionalization, and characterization techniques of merit used in the study of MXenes are discussed, detailing the effects of a range of factors (e.g., PH, temperature, precursor, etc.) on the synthesis, surface functionalization, and performance of the resulting MXenes. Finally, the limits of MXenes and MXene-based materials as well as their potential future research directions, especially for wastewater treatment applications are highlighted.

MOLECULES (BASEL, SWITZERLAND) 2022; 27:molecules27092702. [PMID: 35566052 PMCID: PMC9099465 DOI: 10.3390/molecules27092702] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/06/2022] [Revised: 04/17/2022] [Accepted: 04/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/18/2022]
Abstract
Catecholamines (CAs) and their metabolites play significant roles in many physiological processes. Changes in CAs concentration in vivo can serve as potential indicators for the diagnosis of several diseases such as pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma. Thus, the accurate quantification of CAs and their metabolites in biological samples is quite important and has attracted great research interest. However, due to their extremely low concentrations and numerous co-existing biological interferences, direct analysis of these endogenous compounds often suffers from severe difficulties. Employing suitable sample preparation techniques before instrument detection to enrich the target analytes and remove the interferences is a practicable and straightforward approach. To date, many sample preparation techniques such as solid-phase extraction (SPE), and liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) have been utilized to extract CAs and their metabolites from various biological samples. More recently, several modern techniques such as solid-phase microextraction (SPME), liquid-liquid microextraction (LLME), dispersive solid-phase extraction (DSPE), and chemical derivatizations have also been used with certain advanced features of automation and miniaturization. There are no review articles with the emphasis on sample preparations for the determination of catecholamine neurotransmitters in biological samples. Thus, this review aims to summarize recent progress and advances from 2015 to 2021, with emphasis on the sample preparation techniques combined with separation-based detection methods such capillary electrophoresis (CE) or liquid chromatography (LC) with various detectors. The current review manuscript would be helpful for the researchers with their research interests in diagnostic analysis and biological systems to choose suitable sample pretreatment and detection methods.

Abstract
Cytokeratin fragment antigen 21-1 (CYFRA21-1) is a sensitive marker for detecting non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Ti3C2Tx modified by gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) were synthesized for the first time to obtain the AuNPs@MoS2@Ti3C2Tx composites, which have large specific surface area and good electrocatalytic properties. A novel electrochemical immunoassay for sensitive detection of CYFRA21-1 was developed by loading a large quantity of secondary antibodies (Ab2) and toluidine blue (TB) on the surface of the material as signal probe, and Nafion-AuNPs mixture as electrode material. When the electrochemical response value of CYFRA21-1 increased linearly within the concentration range of 0.5 pg mL-1-50 ng mL-1, the detection limit can reach as low as 0.03 pg mL-1. In addition, the experimental results showed that the biosensor had the potential to rapidly detect CYFRA21-1 in the complex samples such as patient serum, and had a broad application prospect in the early diagnosis and monitoring of NSCLC.
