Abstract
The article describes the synthesis of core-shell magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) of the type Fe3O4@MIL-100 (MIL standing for Material Institut Lavoisier), and their application as sorbent for magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) of triclosan. The MNPs were prepared via circular self-assembly of ferric chloride and benzenetricarboxylic acid. The functionalized MNPs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, FTIR and thermogravimetry. Following extraction, triclosan was eluted with ammoniacal methanol and then submitted to HPLC with UV detection. The amount of magnetic microspheres, sample pH and ionic strength, adsorption time, desorption time, desorption solvent and the volume of the eluent were optimized. Under optimum conditions, the method showed good linearity in the 0.1 to 50 mg·kg−1 triclosan concentration range in toothpaste samples. Other features include (a) intra-day and inter-day relative standard deviations (RSD, for n = 4) of <5.5 %, (b) a 30 μg·kg−1 limit of detection, and (c) extraction recoveries between 90.86 % and 101.1 %. The method was successfully applied to the determination of triclosan in children’s toothpaste.
