Summary: | This paper described a simple and novel measurement technique for the determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in environmental water samples. A micro-solid phase extraction (μ-SPE) demonstrated good enrichment performance for PAHs with cetyltrimethylammonium bromide modified ordered TiO
2 nanotube array.
[Display omitted]
► Develop a new micro-solid phase equilibrium extraction (μ-SPE) method with TiO
2 nanotube arrays modified with CTAB. ► Provide a new monitoring technique for PAHs with a small amount of effectiveTiO
2 nanotubes arrays. ► Demonstrate good adsorption and the applicability of TiO
2 nanotube arrays modified with CTAB.
This paper described a simple and novel analytical technique for the determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in environmental water samples. A micro-solid phase extraction (μ-SPE) was developed utilizing cetyltrimethylammonium bromide modified ordered TiO
2 nanotube array. The experimental results indicated that modified TiO
2 nanotube arrays demonstrated an excellent merit on the preconcentration of PAHs, and there were excellent linear relationships between peak area and the concentration of PAHs in the range of 0.2–100

All these results demonstrated that this new μ-SPE technique was a viable alternative to conventional enrichment techniques for the extraction and analysis of PAHs in complex samples. |
