RESUMO
A functional stainless steel microextraction fiber easily prepared by in situ growing metal-organic framework UiO-66 was presented and used for high-performance analysis of polycyclic musks. Via the robust Ag-SH bonding reaction, mercaptoacetic acid was easily anchored on Ag film to provide carboxyl group on the stainless steel fiber, then in situ grown UiO-66 was fulfilled via the coordination reaction between Zr4+ and carboxyl group. Good characteristics including large surface area, high thermal stability, and good adsorption property were achieved. Sensitive detection limits (0.015-0.040 ng/L) were achieved for polycyclic musks by coupling with gas chromatography with mass spectrometry, and it could be stable enough for 150 extraction cycles without a significant loss of extraction efficiency. Compared with the classical commercial fibers, 2.2-11.4 times higher enhancement factors were shown. Applied to the analysis of fortified river water samples, five typical polycyclic musks were well detected with the recoveries of 90.2-101.8%, respectively. It showed a facile approach for preparing stainless steel microextraction fiber via chemically bonding in situ grown metal-organic framework for high-performance enrichment.
RESUMO
Inspired by the structure and properties of gemini surfactant, a novel amphiphilic gemini-iridium complex (GIC-Ir) has been developed, which can spontaneously form vesicles by self-assembly and exhibit excellent dispersibility and high emission intensity in water. The emission of GIC-Ir can be rapidly and selectively quenched by picric acid (PA) due to the aromatic groups and two long-chain quaternary ammonium (QA) groups with positive charge, which endow GIC-Ir vesicles outstanding capability to capture negatively charged PA, and greatly promote the interaction between GIC-Ir and PA. Theoretical calculations and spectral studied indicated that the photoinduced electron transfer and resonance energy transfer may be responsible to the emission quenching. Furthermore, the real water samples and in vitro studies further prove that GIC-Ir can be used as a promising chemosensor for the detection of PA both in water and intracellular.

Clinical diagnostics and therapeutics of tumors are significantly benefitted by the development of multifunctional theranostic agents, which integrate tumor targeting, imaging, and therapeutics. However, the integration of imaging and therapy functionalities to a unimolecular framework remains a great challenge. Herein, a family of amphiphilic gemini iridium(III) complexes (GIC), Ir1-Ir6, are synthesized and characterized. The presence of quaternary ammonium (QA) groups endows GIC with adjustable water solubility and excellent self-assembly properties. Spectroscopic and computational results reveal that introducing QA groups into cyclometalating ligands (CN ligands) can overcome the drawback of aggregation-caused emission quenching and ensure Ir1-Ir3 with high emission intensity and excellent singlet oxygen (1O2) generation ability in aqueous media. Cell-based assays indicate that Ir3 shows higher cellular uptake efficiency and localizes specifically in the mitochondria, as well as exhibits outstanding photostability and an impressive phototoxicity index with satisfactory performance in mitochondria-targeted imaging and photodynamic therapy (PDT) of tumor cells. Furthermore, in vivo studies further prove that Ir3 possesses excellent antitumor activity and remarkably inhibits the growth of the HepG2 cells under PDT treatment. Consequently, this study presents a promising strategy for designing clinical application potential multifunctional iridium complex theranostic agents for mitochondria-targeted imaging and PDT in a single molecular framework.

A novel sodium hyaluronate-functionalized urea-formaldehyde (UF) monolithic column has been developed by in-situ polycondensation of urea, formaldehyde and sodium hyaluronate (HA). HA plays both the roles of crosslinking and hydrophilic functionalization. The preparation factors including different molecular weights of HA and different amounts of HA were optimized, and then a uniform monolith with satisfactory permeability and hydrophilic binding capacity was obtained. Due to the excellent hydrophilicity of HA, HA-functionalized UF monolith showed higher hydrophilic extraction efficiency than UF monolith, and was applied for hydrophilic in-tube solid-phase microextraction (SPME) of melamine (MEL). Several factors for hydrophilic in-tube SPME, such as ACN percentage in the sampling solution, salt concentration and pH value of the sampling solution, elution volume, sampling and elution flow rate, were investigated with respect to the extraction efficiency of MEL. Under the optimized SPME conditions, the limit of detection (LOD) of MEL was found to be 0.2ng/mL in the milk formula samples, the recoveries of MEL spiked in milk formula samples ranged from 87.3% to 96.7% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) less than 5.1%. Owing to the excellent hydrophilic extraction ability, the novel HA-functionalized UF monolith could provide a promising tool for the sensitive analysis of polar analytes in complicated samples.

A novel urea-formaldehyde (UF) monolithic column has been developed and exploited as a sorbent for hydrophilic in-tube solid-phase microextraction (in-tube SPME) of aminoglycosides (AGs). Because of the innate hydrophilicity, UF monolith showed high extraction efficiency towards these hydrophilic analytes. The adsorption capacities for target compounds dissolved in water/ACN (1:1, v/v) were in the range of 5.18-7.36µg/cm. Due to the lack of a chromophore, evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD) was selected as the detector for AGs, and coupled with the online in-tube SPME-HPLC system. Several factors of the online system, such as trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and ACN percentage in the sampling solution, ionic strength in the sample solution, elution volume, sampling and elution flow rate, were optimized with respect to the extraction efficiencies. Under the optimized conditions, the limits of detection (LODs) of streptomycin, tobramycin and neomycin were discovered in the range of 3.0-5.2µg/kg. The recoveries were ranged from 82.1 to 96.7% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 2.3-5.1% (n=4) at spiking levels of 50, 200 and 500µg/kg, respectively. The excellent applicability of the UF monolithic column was examined by the determination of streptomycin in practical tilapia samples, which showed the potential advantages for the analysis of polar analytes in complicated samples.

A novel strategy for rapidly fabricating ionic liquid (IL)-bonded multifunctional monolithic stationary phase has been developed by an in-situ polycondensation of urea-formaldehyde (UF) and a lab-made acylamino-functionalized IL (1-acetylamino-propyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide, [AAPMIm]Br). Two polycondensation processes of UF with 1-amino-propyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide or [AAPMIm]Br were evaluated. Several parameters including mass ratio of urea-formaldehyde, amount of [AAPMIm]Br, polycondensation time and reaction temperature were optimized, and the [AAPMIm]Br-bonded monolithic stationary phase could be rapidly synthesized in 10min with a satisfactory permeability and mechanical stability. Used for pressurized capillary electrochromatography (pCEC), a typical hydrophilic interaction (HI) retention could be obtained in the resultant [AAPMIm]Br-bonded monolith when the content of acetonitrile (ACN) in mobile phase exceeded 20%. Multiple retention mechanisms such as hydrophilic interaction (HI), hydrogen bond (HH), anion-exchange and cation-exclude interactions, were acheived in the [AAPMIm]Br-bonded monolith. Various polar compounds including phenols, benzoic acid and its homologues, and enkephalins have been well separated and thus demonstrated a satisfactory separation performance of the obtained monolith. A facile access is lighted for rapid preparation of ionic liquid-bonded monoliths with multiple retention mechanisms for pCEC.

La-Co-O mixed oxides (LCO) were prepared by co-precipitation method with the presence of polyethylene glycol (PEG) as dispersant. The influence of adding different molecular weight of PEG (0, 2 000, 6 000, 20 000 g·mol-1) on the physicochemical and catalytic properties of La-Co-O mixed oxides for total oxidation of benzene was investigated. The samples were characterized by means of N2 physical adsorption, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), temperature-programmed reduction by H2 (H2-TPR), temperature-programmed desorption of O2 (O2-TPD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The order of catalytic activity was found to be LCO-PEG6000>LCO>LCO-PG20000>LCO-PG2000. Particularly, LCO-PEG6000 exhibited benzene conversion of 99% at temperature as low as 383 â, which was 126 â lower than that of LCO. The characterization result reveals that all samples had a BET surface area of about 9ï½10 m2·g-1. The XRD result shows that on all samples LaCoO3 perovskite was mainly formed together with a small amount of La2O3 and Co3O4. The addition of PEG was favorable for the formation of LaCoO3 perovskite. Particularly, the addition of PEG-6000 effectively suppressed the agglomeration of LaCoO3 perovskite, giving rise to small and uniform particles as observed by SEM. Moreover, the results of H2-TPR and O2-TPD indicate that the obtained La-Co-O mixed oxides showed higher reducibility and lattice oxygen mobility, and the Co 2p XPS analysis suggests that more surface Co3+ active species were presented by the addition of PEG-6000. These properties are thought to contribute to the high activity in benzene total oxidation.

A highly sensitive capillary electrophoretic profiling of nicotine (NIC) and nornicotine (NNIC) was developed and applied to mushrooms with amperometric detection (AD). Effects of the experimental factors including detection potential, separation parameters, and sample pretreatment conditions were investigated. Under the optimal conditions, the electrophoretic analysis of NIC and NNIC was achieved within 8 min on a pencil carbon disc working electrode at 0.95 V, which was lower than those reported previously. Good calibration curves were obtained in 0.01-2.0 µg/mL and 0.02-3.0 µg/mL with the LOD of 2 ng/mL and 5 ng/mL for NIC and NNIC, respectively. The feasibility of the resultant method was verified. Average recoveries of different fortified levels ranged in 80.7-86.0% and 94.0-98.6% for NNIC and NIC were gained, respectively. Applied to a range of mushrooms (Boletus edulis and Lentinus edodes), the NIC contained naturally was successfully found in the level of 19.71-79.20 µg/kg. The results obtained with CE-AD method were acceptable and close to that of HPLC-MS.

A novel tentacle-type polymer stationary phase covalently modified with branched polyethyleneimine (PEI) was developed for peptides and proteins separations by open-tubular CEC (OT-CEC). The preparation procedure included the silanization of capillary inner wall, in situ graft polymerization and PEI functionalization. A wrinkly polymer surface of multitudinous steric amine groups was evenly formed on the capillary inner wall, and anodic EOF could be gained within a wide pH range of 2.5-7.5. The electroosmotic mobility was examined for its dependence on pH as well as PEI concentrations. Good repeatability was gained with RSD for the migration time of EOF marker within 4.8% and satisfactory chemical stability was validated. Due to the existence of amine groups on the surface of tentacle-type polymer stationary phase, the silanol effect that occurs between the positively charged biomolecules and the silanols of the capillary column was greatly suppressed. Compared with a monolayer-coating capillary, seven enkephalin-related peptides were well resolved on the PEI-bonded column with high efficiencies. Favorable separations of peptides and proteins with high column efficiencies were obtained in 144,000-189,000 and 97,000-170,000 plates/m. Branched PEI-bonded tentacle-type polymer stationary phase has been proven to afford satisfactory retention and resolution of peptides and proteins.

A multi-functional open-tubular (OT) column covalently modified with [3-(phenylamino)propyl]trimethoxysilane (PPTMS) via a single-step silanization reaction has been developed, and employed for alkaloids and aromatic acids analytes by CEC. Both anodic and cathodic EOF could be gained in the PPTMS-bonded column, and anodic EOF was exhibited when the pH of running buffer was less than 8.0. Using thiourea as the EOF marker, a satisfactory column stability was denoted, and the RSD values for migration time and peak area were gained at 0.5 and 3.7% (intra-day, n=5), 1.7 and 5.6% (inter-day, n=3), 3.9 and 5.8% (column-to- column, n=16 in four batches). With anodic EOF mode (pH=2.0 of 10 mmol/L phosphate buffer), favorable separations of cationic alkaloids (viz. uridine, adenosine, cytidine, adenine, cytosine) were successfully achieved with column efficiencies ranging from 95,000 to 187,000 plates/m, and the undesired adsorption on the inter-wall of capillary column could be avoided. Besides, six anionic aromatic acids could be also separated efficiently in the co-electroosmotic mode with anodic EOF. And high efficiencies ranged from 176,000 to 235,000 plates/m were gained with a good repeatability. PPTMS-bonded capillary column might be used as an alternative functional medium to physical coating capillary column for the analyses of aromatic organic acids and bases.
RESUMO
A novel highly hydrophilic polymethacrylate-based monolithic stationary phase based on the copolymerization of 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid (AMPS) and pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA) was designed for pressurized capillary electrochromatography. A typical hydrophilic interaction chromatography mechanism could be observed when the content of acetonitrile (ACN) in the mobile phase exceeded 25%. Slight swelling or shrinking with mobile phases of different polarity was observed in permeability studies. Good retentions and efficient separations of polar analytes, such as neutral amides and phenols, were well achieved in hydrophilic interaction chromatography mode with only about 50% ACN content in the mobile phase. It was remarkably lower than the content of ACN (>90%) used on the hydrophilic polymethacrylate-based monoliths reported previously. Additionally, a mixed mode of hydrophilic interaction (HI) and strong cation-exchange (SCX) could be also obtained in the analysis of charged peptides, and high column efficiency up to 80,000 plates/m was achieved without peak tailing. The prepared hydrophilic stationary phase might provide a potential environmental friendly separation media for polar solutes as it consumes a low volume of organic solvents.

A novel monolithic stationary phase with mixed mode of hydrophilic and strong anion exchange (SAX) interactions based on in situ copolymerization of pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA), N,N-dimethyl-N-methacryloxyethyl N-(3-sulfopropyl) ammonium betaine (DMMSA) and a selected quaternary amine acrylic monomer was designed as a multifunctional separation column for CEC. Although the zwitterionic functionalities of DMMSA and hydroxy groups of PETA on the surface of the monolithic stationary phase functioned as the hydrophilic interaction (HI) sites, the quaternary amine acrylic monomer was introduced to control the magnitude of the EOF and provide the SAX sites at the same time. Three different quaternary amine acrylic monomers were tested to achieve maximum EOF velocity and highest plate count. The fabrication of the zwitterionic monolith (designated as HI and SAX stationary phase) was carried out when [2-(acryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium methylsulfate was used as the quaternary amine acrylic monomer. The separation mechanism of the monolithic column was discussed in detail. For charged analytes, a mixed mode of HI and SAX was observed by studying the influence of mobile phase pH and salt concentration on their retentions on the poly(PETA-co-DMMSA-co-[2-(acryloyloxy)ethyl]trimethylammonium methylsulfate) monolithic column. The optimized monolith showed good separation performance for a range of polar analytes including nucleotides, nucleic acid bases and nucleosides, phenols, estrogens and small peptides. The column efficiencies greater than 192 000 theoretical plates/m for estriol and 135 000 theoretical plates/m for charged cytidine were obtained.

A new method, pressurized CEC with end-column amperometric detection using carbon paste electrode, has been developed for the separation and determination of five phenolic xenoestrogens in chicken eggs and milk powder samples. Efficient separation of five analytes was performed by pressurized CEC using a mobile phase consisting of 60% v/v ACN and 40% v/v Tris buffer (5 mmol/L, pH 8.0), +6 kV of applied voltage and 7.0 MPa of supplementary pressure. Detection limits of 50, 5, 2, 10 and 20 ng/mL for pentachlorophenol, bisphenol-A, 2,4-dichlorophenol, 4-tert-octylphenol and 4-nonylphenol, respectively, were achieved using carbon paste electrode as working electrode and +0.8 V as detection potential. Matrix solid phase dispersion extraction method had been employed during sample preparation procedure, and mean recoveries ranged from 79.2 to 102.6% at different concentrations of phenolic xenoestrogens for spiked egg and milk powder samples were obtained.

A novel polymethacrylate-based monolithic column with covalently bonded zwitterionic functional groups was prepared by in situ copolymerization of N,N-dimethyl-N-methacryloxyethyl N-(3-sulfopropyl) ammonium betaine (SPE), pentaerythritol triacrylate (PETA), and vinylsulfonic acid (VS) in a binary porogenic solvent consisting of cyclohexanol and ethylene glycol. This monolith was developed as a separation column for CEC. While SPE functioned as both an electrostatic interaction stationary phase and the polar ligand provider, VS was employed to generate EOF. PETA, which has much more hydrophilicity due to a hydroxyl sub-layer, was used to replace ethylene dimethacrylate as a cross-linker. The monolith provided an adequate EOF when VS level was maintained at 0.6% w/w. Different monolithic stationary phases were easily prepared by adjusting the ratio of PETA/SPE in the polymerization solution as well as the composition of the porogenic solvent.

RESUMO
The immobilization of gallic acid on the surface of amino group-containing silica gel phases for the formation of a newly chelating matrix (GASG) is described. The newly synthesized extractant, characterized by the diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transformation spectroscopy and elemental analysis, was used to preconcentrate Pb(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II). The pH ranges for quantitative sorption and the concentrations of HCl for eluting Pb(II), Cd(II), Cu(II) and Ni(II) were opimized, respectively. The sorption capacity of the matrix has been found to be 12.63, 6.09, 15.38, 4.62mg/g for Pb(II), Cd(II), Cu(II) and Ni(II), respectively, with the preconcentration factor of approximately 200 ( approximately 100 for Cd(II)). The effects of flow rates, the eluants, the electrolytes and cations on the metal ions extraction, as well as the chelating matrix stability and reusability, were also studied. The extraction behavior of the matrix was conformed with Langmuir's equation. The present preconcentration and determination method was successfully applied to the analysis of synthetic metal mixture solution and river water samples. The 3sigma detection limit and 10sigma quantification limit for Pb(II), Cu(II), Cd(II) and Ni(II) were found to be 0.58, 0.86, 0.65, 0.92microg/L and 1.08, 1.23, 0.87, 1.26microg/L, respectively.
RESUMO
In this paper, the pressurized capillary electrochromatography (pCEC) with UV detection was utilized for the separation and determination of three structurally related estrogens, such as diethylstilbestrol (DES), hexestrol (HEX) and dienestrol (DE), which were difficult to be separated by capillary electrophoresis (CE) and HPLC due to their similarity in the structure and charge-to-mass ratios. Experiments were carried out in a commercially available pCEC instrument using a capillary column packed with 3 microm octadecyl silica (ODS). Surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was introduced in the mobile phase to enhance the speed of analysis. The effective factors on the retention time and separation resolution, such as the applied voltage, supplementary pressure, the pH and the concentration of the buffer solution, the concentration of SDS, and the content of acetonitrile in the mobile phase, were evaluated. Based on the investigation, 31% (v/v) acetonitrile and 69% (v/v) of 10 mmol/L phosphate buffer (pH 6.5) containing 1.0 mmol/L SDS at an applied voltage of -12 kV and a supplementary pressure of 1000 psi were found to be the optimal conditions for pCEC to separate the three estrogens. The method also had been applied to the analysis of fish muscle samples spiked with estrogens.
