Abstract
In view of the high polarity and ubiquitous occurrence of perchlorate, achieving an ultra-trace analysis has become a challenging task. The present study aimed to develop a simple and generic pretreatment protocol based on cold-induced liquid–liquid extraction to efficiently extract perchlorate from tea and dairy products and remarkably decrease potential matrix interferences and laborious cleanup. By optimizing the pretreatment conditions, the enrichment factor of perchlorate increased by 7.79 times under the compromise between the matrix effect and extraction recovery. The validated method presented satisfactory selectivity, linearity, accuracy, precision, and matrix effect, providing recoveries of 78.2%–106.2% with RSDr ranging from 1.2% to 7.9% and RSDR less than 10.7% for tea and dairy products. This pretreatment protocol depended only on shaking, freezing, and centrifugation in one step, without additional equipment or tedious operations, which will be explored to a greater extent in complex biological or food matrices.
