Abstract

Transient isotachophoresis (tITP) with a system-induced terminator (SIT) was developed for capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) determination of aniline (An+) and pyridine (Py+) in sewage samples. After sample injection, a water vial was set at the sample-inlet side. Then voltage was applied to generate a system-induced terminator (H+). Experiments and simulations revealed a concentration effect by tITP with an SIT: background electrolyte (BGE) – 100mM acetic acid (AcOH) and 50mM NaOH (pH 4.6); detection wavelength – 200nm for An+ and 254nm for Py+; vacuum injection period – 15s (190nL); SIT generation – 10kV applied for 80s with the sample inlet side anode; separation voltage – 20kV with the sample inlet side anode. The limits of detection (LODs, S/N=3) of An+ and Py+ respectively reached 10 and 42μg/L, with good repeatability (peak area RSDs≤6.9%) and calibration graph linearity (R2=0.9997). The proposed method was applied for determination of An+ and Py+ in sewage samples. Recoveries of An+ (0.50mg/L) and Py+ (2.0mg/L) in spiked sewage samples were 94–104%.
