Abstract

ABSTRACT An ultrasonic-assisted dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction based on deep eutectic solvent was utilised for simultaneous preconcentration and determination of illegal dyes Sudan orange G (SOG) and Sudan red 7B (SR7B) using second derivative ultraviolet spectrophotometry. Under optimised conditions, the limit of detection (0.014 and 0.011 μg mL−1) and linear dynamic range (0.036–0.900 and 0.030–1.000 μg mL−1) with high determination coefficient of 0.9916 and 0.9937 were obtained for SOG and SR7B, respectively. The relative standard deviations of method (n = 3) for intra- and inter-day were obtained as 3.5% and 10.5% for SOG and 5.0% and 9.0% for SR7B. The preconcentration factor for both dyes was calculated as 75 for all experiments. The applicability of the proposed method was investigated in different real samples, including in chilli powder, lipstick, river water and also in well water. A relative recovery percentage of 88–114% was obtained for these samples. Effect of interferences for the model solutions was also examined wherein satisfactory results confirm reasonable selectivity of the proposed method.
