Abstract
To establish a method for simultaneous determination of 21 organophosphate esters(OPEs) and their metabolites in drinking water by automatic solid phase extraction-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The drinking water was purified by automatic solid phase extraction with HLB column, eluted by methanol, determined by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry with ACQUITY UPLC BEH(100 mm×2.1mm, 1.7 μm) column, and quantified by internal standard method. The optimized method could simultaneously detect 21 organophosphate esters and their metabolites in drinking water. The detection limit was 0.01-0.24 ng/L, the quantitation limit was 0.03-0.77 ng/L. The recovery range was 57.6%-121.2% and the relative standard deviation is 1.2%-11.1% when the concentration was 0.8-20 ng/L. Senventeen tap water and 30 packaged drinking water collected by the supermarket were measured. The ΣOPEs range was 16.8-177 ng/L, and the Σdi-OPEs range was 0.328-16.3ng/L, indicating the exposure risk of organophosphates and their metabolites in water. The pretreatment of the method is simple, automatic and sensitive, and is suitable for simultaneous high-throughput determination of organophosphate esters and their metabolites in large quantities of drinking water.
