Abstract
The solid-phase microextraction (SPME) technique with on-fiber derivatization was evaluated for the analysis of aldehydes in water. The poly(dimethylsiloxane)/divinylbenzene (PDMS/DVB) fiber was used and O-2,3,4,5,6-(pentafluorobenzyl)hydroxylamine hydrochloride (PFBHA) were first loaded onto the fiber. The aldehydes in water sample were agitated into headspace and extracted by SPME with on-fiber derivatization. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) was used for the analysis of oximes formed and the adsorption-time profiles were examined. The precision, recovery and method detection limits (MDLs) were evaluated with spiked bidistilled water, chlorinated tap water as well as well water. The relative standard deviations from different spiked water sample were all less than 10% and the recoveries were 100±15%. With 2 ml of water sample, MDLs were in the range of 0.12–0.34 μg/l. Compared with other techniques, the study shown here provided a simple, fast and reliable method for the analysis of aldehydes in water.
