Publicación On-line flow injection molecularly imprinted solid phase extraction for the preconcentration and determination of 1-hydroxypyrene in urine samples(Elsevier, 2017-05-01) Serrano, Montserrat; Bartolomé, Mónica; Gañán Aceituno, Judith; Gallego Picó, Alejandrina; Bravo Yagüe, Juan Carlos; Paniagua González, Gema; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa MªNew analytical strategies tend to automation of sample pre-treatment and flow analysis techniques provided a number of enhanced analytical methods allowing high throughput. Flow techniques are usually faster, more robust and more flexible than their batch equivalents. In addition, flow methods use less sample and reagent amounts and reduce analytical costs and waste. A flow injection solid-phase extraction pre-concentration system using a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) packed micro-column was developed for the determination of 1-hydroxypyrene in human urine with fluorescence detection. The pre-concentration of 1-hydroxypyrene on the MIP was carried out based on the specific retention of analyte by on-line introducing the sample into the micro-column system. Methanol and dichloromethane mixture was used to elute the retained analyte for fluorometric analysis. Important influencing factors were studied in detail, in batch and in flow (MISPE procedure optimisation, sample and eluent volumes, flow rate, dimensions of MIP micro-column and amounts of packing material, etc). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first on-line flow injection molecularly imprinted solid phase extraction for the pre-concentration and determination of hydroxylate PAH metabolite in urine samples. The optimised method was successfully applied to the determination of 1-Hydroxypyrene in spiked urine samples, with recoveries in the range of 74–85% and RSD<4.6%. Under optimum experimental conditions, the linearity concentration range used was 10–400 μg L−1, R2>0.996. We obtained limit of detection and quantification of 3.1 μg L−1 and 10.5 μg L−1, respectivelyPublicación Analysis of total arsenic content in purchased rice from Ecuador(Czech Academy of Agricultural Sciences, 2019-12-31) Atiaga Franco, Oliva L.; Otero, Xose L.; Gallego Picó, Alejandrina; Escobar Castañeda, Luis A.; Carrera Villacrés, David; Bravo Yagüe, Juan CarlosNatural and anthropogenic sources contribute to arsenic contamination in water and human food chain in Andean countries. Human exposure to arsenic via rice consumption is of great concern in countries where this crop is the dominant staple food, and limited information is available on the arsenic contamination on rice in Ecuador. This work was to contribute to the lack of knowledge analysing total arsenic by hydride generation-atomic absorption spectrometry in the samples of white, brown and parboiled rice purchased in Ecuadorian markets and produced in the two main rice wetlands in Ecuador, Guayas and Los Ríos, were carried out. For the samples from Guayas, arsenic concentration in white, brown and parboiled rice were 0.174 ± 0.014, 0.232 ± 0.021, and 0.186 ± 0.017 mg/kg respectively, whereas samples of white rice from Los Ríos showed a total arsenic level of 0.258 ± 0.037 mg/kg. This last arsenic concentration exceeds recommended maximum permissible limit by the FAO/WHO. Obtained data have available to estimate the Ecuadorian dietary exposure revealing serious health risk for populationPublicación Methacrylic acid-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate polymeric sorbent for the removal of estrogens from water(['Estrogens', 'Removal', 'Polymer', 'Sorbent', 'Waters', 'Balaban Publishers – Desalination Publications'], 2018-11) Gallego, Alejandrina; Bravo Yagüe, Juan Carlos; Paniagua González, Gema; Fernández Hernando, Pilar; Garcinuño Martínez, Rosa MªThe presence of estrogens in environmental waters can cause adverse effects to aquatic organisms. In the last years, diverse researches have been focussed on the development of cost-effective methods for the removal of these compounds in water. In this paper, a series of methacrylic acid-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate polymers with different monomers ratio were synthesised by photochemical (UV irradiation at 365 nm) or thermal (oven at 60°C) initiation. Batch and continuous flow experiments were carried out to evaluate the capacity of these polymers to adsorb estradiol (E2), ethinylestradiol (EE2) and dienestrol (DEN). Adsorption isotherm studies revealed that Langmuir isotherm model was fitted with a better correlation than Freundlich isotherm. Finally, continuous flow experiments were carried out by microcolumn studies to check the suitability of the polymeric sorbent for the removal of estrogens from real water samples. When continuous removal experiments at 8 mL min–1 flow rate were carried out, breakthrough adsorption capacities of 28.5, 38 and 69.7 mg g–1 for E2, EE2 and DEN, respectively, were achieved.
