The online coupling technique of sample preparation with chromatography is a frontier topic in analytical chemistry since it minimizes errors caused by sample loss, shortens analysis time, and reduces solvent consumption. An online pressure change focusing-supercritical fluid selective extraction chromatography (PCF-SFSEC) technique was developed in this study, realizing extraction, purification, separation, and detection in a single run with only microliter-scale samples. The pressure change focusing strategy achieved column-head stacking by decreasing the dissolving capacity of the supercritical fluid, enabling the large volume introduction of extractants into supercritical fluid chromatography without causing peak broadening or distortion. All the extracts could be directly loaded into the chromatography system without split flow. Based on the supercritical fluid selective extraction (SFSE) strategy, the sorbents removed interferences and water from samples, effectively alleviating matrix effects and realizing the direct aqueous sample analysis. The efficiency of online PCF-SFSEC was demonstrated by the enantioselective analysis of 22 chiral drugs in rat plasma, covering eight categories with different pharmacological effects. The entire analysis took 25 min, consuming only 5 μL samples. All analytes in PCF-SFSEC obtained sharp and symmetrical peaks with resolutions higher than 1.0, and 86% had resolutions higher than 1.5. Limits of quantification (LOQs) ranged from 0.0600 to 32.1 μg/L. Recoveries were in the range of 75.8–117.2%. In addition, the developed approach obtained more satisfactory repeatability and significantly reduced matrix effects than conventional methods. The newly established online PCF-SFSEC technique is believed to be a green and powerful tool for the chiral analysis of complex samples.

In this paper, we designed and manufactured a reliable magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) microfluidic chip for determination of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water combined with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Sample loading, washing and elution are implemented with microinjection pump and integrated on a single chip, which reduced manual operation. Magnets were used to fix octadecyl/phenyl bifunctional Fe 3 O 4 @SiO 2 extractant to avoid the design of weir structure in extraction chamber. The whole microfluidic chip was simple and low cost. Based on the microfluidic chip extraction platform, the on-chip MSPE method for the determination of PAHs was optimized and established. The results showed that this method required only 2 mL of sample, 2 mg of extractant, and 50 μL of elution organic solvent for whole on-chip MSPE process, which was environmentally friendly and consistent with green chemistry. Method verification results were displayed which the linear range of five PAHs was between 1-100 ng/mL with good linearity (R 2 ≥ 0.9985), and the detection limits (S/N = 3) were 0.08–0.26 ng/mL. The RSDs of intra-day precision (n=6) and inter-day precision (n=9) for PAHs were less than 6.1 % and 7.2 %, respectively. Enrichment factors were determined to be 31.3–37.7. The recoveries of river water, tap water, bottle water, waste water and urine at three spiked levels were in the range of 89.9% to 113.7% and the matrix effect values were between 83.8% to 109.6%. The extraction platform has the advantages of accurate analysis, simple design and cost-effective, which is conducive to the widespread use of microfluidic chips

The efficiently extraction and accurately quantify of β-carotene and its metabolites are crucial for authenticity and traceability in goat milk. Nevertheless, its reliability can be largely improved. In this study, meticulously designed native ESI-MS, fluorescence spectroscopy and molecular docking in combination with cold-induced acetonitrile aqueous two-phase separation system weaken the interaction between β-lactoglobulin and β-carotene metabolites and realized the efficiently extraction. Furthermore, established non-targeted quantitative metabolomics with optimal ion source and variable data-independent acquisition minimized the matrix effects and potential ion suppression. Validated atmospheric pressure chemical ionization-ultra high performance liquid chromatography-Orbitrap method showed that β-carotene as distinctive biomarker in cow milk, and retinol, retinaldehyde, retinoic acid and abscisic acid in goat milk. Collectively, the proposed method is a powerful tool to detect cow adulteration risks in goat milk samples and provides valuable information for availability on authenticity of goat milk.

Complex and tedious sample preparation processes have greatly limited rapid analyses of biological samples. In this work, an all-in-one sample preparation strategy based on a miniaturized gas membrane separation/oven ring enrichment (GMS/ORE) device was developed for efficient surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) analyses of trace biomarkers in biofluid samples. This strategy integrating gasification separation, liquid trapping, derivatization SERS activation, and coffee-ring enrichment could highly promote the efficiency of sample preparation. Meanwhile, the edges of membranes modified by the hydrophobic-infusing slippery liquid-induced uniform “coffee-ring” effect could significantly improve the sensitivity and stability for SERS quantification. By adapting proper derivatization approaches to the miniaturized GMS/ORE pretreatment, the matrix effects in samples could be prominently eliminated, and clear SERS responses could be obtained for the selective analyses of target biomarkers. The miniaturized GMS/ORE device was practically applied for SERS analyses of trace biomarkers in biofluids, including hydrogen sulfide in saliva samples, creatinine in serum samples, and sarcosine, creatinine, and dimethyl disulfide in urine samples. Accurate quantification of all biomarkers was achieved with recoveries of 89.5%–120.0%, and the contents found by GMS/ORE-SERS matched well with those found by corresponding chromatographic methods with relative errors from −8.6% to 9.3%. The miniaturized GMS/ORE device with multiple parallel processing units could simultaneously treat eight samples in one run with a total analysis time of 40 min. Such an efficient all-in-one strategy integrated on a miniaturized device possesses great potential for fast on-site/point-of-care detection in analytical science and clinical medicine.
