RESUMO
This work, reports the successful preparation a thin film by a simple and inexpensive process for quantification of a model analytes in the urine sample using HPLC-UV. To this end, cellulose paper was employed as a substrate for the in-situ synthesis of MOF-5, to increase the resistance of the prepared film. The prepared film can be reused 26 times with no reduction in its performance. The thin film prepared by MOF-5 modified cellulose substrate was utilized in thin film microextraction (TFME) method for the extraction and preconcentration of naproxen, aspirin, tolmetin, and celecoxib. Under optimal conditions, the linear dynamic range of the target analytes was 2-500 µg L-1 with correlation coefficients (R2) ranging from 0.9961 to 0.9990. Also, the limits of detection (LODs), the limits of quantification (LOQs) and relative standard deviation (RSD%) of the proposed method for selected analytes ranged between 0.57 and 0.77 µg L-1, 1.7 to 2.3 and 3.5 % to 6.2 %, respectively. Moreover, relative recoveries varied from of 94 % to 108 %, indicating the absence of matrices effect in the proposed method. Eventually, the TFME was successfully used for the extraction of selected analytes from urine samples.
