ABSTRACT
A simple and rapid sample preparation method based on dispersive
liquid-liquid microextraction-solidification of
floating organic drop (DLLME-SFO) combined with gas
chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) method was developed for the analysis
of antidepressant drugs in water samples. This method uses organic solvent with
low density and less toxicity. In the method, the disperser solvent (0.5 mL acetonitrile)
containing 30 μL of n-hexadecane was rapidly
injected using a syringe into 5.0 mL of water sample in a glass tube. After
centrifugation for 7 min at 3500 rpm, the mixture was cooled in ice bath for 5
min. The solidified n-hexadecane was transferred into a conical vial, where it
melted rapidly at room temperature and 2 μL of
it was injected into a gas chromatograph for analysis. Under optimized
conditions, the method showed good linearity in the range of 0.04 - 0.12
μg mL-1 for amitriptyline and chlorpromazine
with correlation of determination (r2) in the range
of 0.992 - 0.995. The limits of detections (LODs) were in the range
0.0085 - 0.0285 μg mL-1. The extraction recoveries of
amitriptyline and chlorpromazine from water samples at spiking level of 0.08
μg mL-1 were 71.34 - 73.52% and 73.83 - 91.09%,
respectively, with relative standard deviations (RSDs) in the range of
4.97 - 6.85% for amitriptyline and 4.84 - 7.49% for chlorpromazine. The method
was successfully applied to the determination of the analytes in drinking water, lake water and tap water samples.

ABSTRAK
Satu kaedah penyediaan sampel yang ringkas dan cepat berdasarkan pengekstrakan mikro cecair-cecair penyerakan pemejalan titisan organik terapung (DLLME-SFO) bergabung dengan kromatografi gas-spektrometri jisim (GC-MS) telah dibangunkan untuk analisis dadah anti-kemurungan di dalam sampel air. Dalam kaedah ini, pelarut penyebar (0.5 mL asetonitril)
yang mengandungi 30 μL n-heksadekana disuntik dengan cepat menggunakan picagari ke dalam 5.0 mL air dalam tiub kaca. Larutan diemparkan selama 7 min pada 3500 rpm, tiub kaca direndam di dalam kukus ais untuk langkah penyejukan selama 5 min, pelarut pepejal n-heksadekana dipindahkan ke dalam tiub berbentuk kon, dan ia akan melebur dengan cepat pada suhu bilik dan 2 μL cecair itu disuntik ke dalam kromatografi gas untuk dianalisis. Beberapa parameter DLLME-SFO dikenal pasti, termasuk jenis dan isi padu pelarut pengekstrakan dan pelarut penyebar, masa pengekstrakan dan kesan garam. Dalam keadaan optimum, kaedah ini menunjukkan kelinearan yang baik dalam julat 0.04
- 0.12 μg mL-1 untuk amitriptilina dan klorpromazina dengan kolerasi penentuan (r2) dalam julat 0.992 - 0.995. Had pengesanan (LODs) adalah dalam julat 0.0085 - 0.0285
μg mL-1. Keboleh-pulangan pengekstrakan untuk amitriptilina dan klorpromazina daripada sampel air pada tahap campuran 0.08 μg mL-1 adalah masing-masing 71.34
-73.52% dan 73.83 - 91.09% dengan sisihan piawai relatif (RSDs) dalam julat 4.97 - 6.85% untuk amitriptilina dan 4.84 - 7.49% untuk klorpromazina. Kaedah ini berjaya diaplikasikan bagi pengesanan dadah anti kemurungan dalam sampel air minuman, air tasik dan air paip.
