Application of microemulsions for the extraction of o-phthalate esters from soil with subsequent separation of microemulsions, simultaneous preconcentration, and gas chromatographic analysis of target components

Аннотация

The possible application of microemulsions as extractants for the extraction of o-phthalate esters from soils with the subsequent breakdown of microemulsions, simultaneous preconcentration of dialkhylphthalates in the organic phase, and their following gas chromatographic analysis with mass-spectrometric detection is demonstrated. The preconcentration factor was 18. The method is characterized by low detection limits, good selectivity, and reproducibility.
