Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of analysis and detection, and particularly relates to an analysis method for simultaneously detecting organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls. Summary of the Invention

[0002] Residues of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in aquatic environments are of growing global concern. These substances are highly toxic, have long half-lives, are difficult to degrade, and are bioaccumulative. They readily enter the food chain and persist in sediments, water, and organisms for long periods of time. Accumulating through the food chain, they can adversely impact human health and the environment. In today's large-scale environmental surveys and monitoring missions, large numbers of samples are collected. Organic pollutants are unstable due to their volatility and biodegradability. Therefore, their analysis requires particular attention to timeliness: water sample pretreatment should be completed within 7-14 days of collection, and analysis should be completed within 40 days. Currently, the main methods for detecting OCPs and PCBs in the environment include gas chromatography (GC), gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), and gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS / MS). However, standard analytical methods for PCBs and OCPs, both domestically and internationally, primarily involve extraction, cleanup, and determination of each separately. These methods not only have long analysis cycles, impacting the timeliness of sample testing, but also have high laboratory costs, increasing testing costs and making it difficult to meet the growing demand for analytical testing of environmental monitoring samples. Peng Jie et al. reported the simultaneous determination of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and organochlorine pesticide residues in water and sludge using gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Using different extraction solvents, including n-hexane, dichloromethane, and dichloromethane-n-hexane (1:1, v / v), the water samples were extracted. The extraction efficiency of some compounds, such as hexachlorobenzene, was only approximately 70%, indicating that this efficiency needs to be improved. Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve the determination of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) such as PCBs and OCPs in environmental samples. The development of rapid, simultaneous, and efficient sample pretreatment and instrumental integration techniques to improve pretreatment extraction efficiency and the accuracy of analytical data is of great practical significance. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, such as separate extraction, purification and determination, which leads to a long analysis cycle and affects the timeliness of sample testing, and has high experimental consumption and increased testing costs, and the simultaneous extraction and analysis of two substances has low extraction efficiency for some test items, the present invention provides an analytical method for simultaneously detecting organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls. The analytical method adopts a mixed extraction solvent to simultaneously extract organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls in water samples, and has good analytical effect.

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is an analytical method for simultaneously extracting organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls in a water sample using a mixed extraction solvent. The extract is dehydrated, concentrated and fixed to volume, and then separated and determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Qualitative analysis is performed based on retention time, fragment ion mass-to-charge ratio and different ion abundance ratios, and quantitative analysis is performed using an internal standard method. The mixed extraction solvent is selected from: n-hexane, dichloromethane or a mixed solvent of the two.

[0005] Preferably, the mixed extraction solvent is selected from: a mixed solvent of n-hexane and dichloromethane.

[0006] Preferably, the volume ratio of the mixed extraction solvent of n-hexane and dichloromethane is 9:1.

[0007] Preferably, the mixed extraction solvent further comprises polyethylene glycol, wherein the polyethylene glycol is selected from polyethylene glycol 2000, polyethylene glycol 3500 or polyethylene glycol 4000.

[0008] Preferably, the polyethylene glycol is polyethylene glycol 4000, and the added amount is 1% to 10% of the mass of the mixed extraction solvent.

[0009] Preferably, the amount of polyethylene glycol 4000 added is 1% by mass of the mixed extraction solvent.

[0010] The specific steps of the analytical method of the present invention are as follows:

[0011] Chromatographic conditions: Inlet: 300°C, splitless injection, injection volume 1uL; column flow rate 1.0mL / min, constant flow, column temperature 100°C maintained for 6min, increased at 20°C / min to 260°C, maintained for 0min, then increased at 5°C / min to 300°C and maintained for 13min, for a total run time of 35min; mass spectrometry conditions: SIM scan; ion source (EI) 300°C; quadrupole 200°C; solvent delay 15min, interface temperature 300°C; carrier gas is helium.

[0012] (1) Pretreatment: Take 1000 mL of water sample in a separatory funnel, add 10 ng of the substitute, then add 20-30 g of sodium chloride, shake until completely dissolved, extract the water sample with 30-50 mL of mixed extraction solvent, let it stand and separate the liquid, then add 30-50 mL of mixed extraction solvent and repeat the extraction 2-3 times, combine the two extracts, dehydrate with anhydrous sodium sulfate, and concentrate to 1.0 mL using a multi-sample parallel quantitative concentrator, add 20 ng of the internal standard, mix the concentrate thoroughly, and finally transfer it to a sample bottle for storage. Clean water does not require additional purification treatment, but wastewater needs to be treated with C 18 Cartridge cleanup.

[0013] (2) Drawing of calibration curve: Prepare a series of standard solutions containing 13 organochlorine pesticides, 9 polychlorinated biphenyls and 2 substitutes using a 5 mL volumetric flask. The concentrations of the standard solutions are 2.00 μg / L, 5.00 μg / L, 10.0 μg / L, 20.0 μg / L, 50.0 μg / L and 100 μg / L respectively. Add 20 μL of 1000 μg / L internal standard solution to make the concentration of each solution 20.0 μg / L. Analyze under the instrument reference conditions to obtain mass spectra of each target compound at different concentrations. Draw the calibration curve with the ratio of the target compound quantitative ion response to the internal standard compound quantitative ion response as the horizontal axis and the ratio of the target compound to the internal standard compound concentration as the vertical axis.

[0014] (3) Sample determination: The treated water sample is measured under the same instrument analysis conditions as those used to draw the calibration curve, and the measurement results are calculated.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has achieved beneficial effects in that it can simultaneously extract, purify and determine organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls. The extraction efficiency is significantly improved compared with the prior art by using a mixed extraction solvent. The precision and accuracy of the method fully meet the requirements of existing environmental monitoring. The specific beneficial effects are shown in the experimental results:

[0016] (1) When the extraction solvent is n-hexane, the extraction recovery rate is 77.8%-103%. The extraction efficiency of dichloromethane is the worst, with an extraction recovery rate of 45.6%-89.6%. When the extraction solvent is a mixed solvent of dichloromethane and n-hexane, the extraction efficiency gradually increases with the increase of the proportion of n-hexane. When the volume ratio of n-hexane to dichloromethane is 9:1, the extraction recovery rate can reach 78.9%-95.7%. When 1% polyethylene glycol 4000 is added to the mixed extraction with a volume ratio of n-hexane to dichloromethane of 9:1, the extraction efficiency is significantly improved, and the extraction efficiency recovery rate reaches 84.6%-103%, indicating that the addition of polyethylene glycol 4000 has a significant improvement effect.

[0017] (2) When 0.5% by mass of polyethylene glycol 4000 was added to the mixed extraction solvent, the extraction effect did not change significantly. When 1% by mass of polyethylene glycol 4000 was added, the extraction efficiency was significantly improved. As the mass increased, the extraction efficiency decreased slightly.

[0018] (3) When polyethylene glycol is a low molecular weight polymer, the extraction effect becomes worse. This may be because low molecular weight polyethylene glycol has a strong affinity for water, which dissolves a certain amount of extracted pollutants in water, resulting in a decrease in extraction efficiency. When the molecular weight gradually increases, the extraction efficiency gradually increases. When the molecular weight increases to 2000, the extraction efficiency is improved compared with the 9:1 ratio of pure hexane and dichloromethane. Among them, the extraction efficiency is the highest when polyethylene glycol 4000 is added.

[0019] (4) Using the parameters of the present invention, the correlation coefficients of 13 organochlorine pesticides and 9 polychlorinated biphenyls of the present invention are greater than 0.997, the linear range is mostly 1-100 ng / L, and the detection limit is between 0.45 ng / L and 0.92 ng / L, which fully meets the requirements of existing standards.

[0020] (5) When the mixed extraction solvent was n-hexane / dichloromethane with a volume ratio of 9:1 and 1% of polyethylene glycol 4000 was added, the recoveries of 13 organochlorine pesticides and 9 polychlorinated biphenyl compounds in water samples with concentrations of 5.00 ng / L, 20.0 ng / L, 40.0 ng / L and 80.0 ng / L were measured in parallel for 6 times and were 83.6-95.4%, 91.2-105.6%, 93.5-104.7% and 92.8-106.9%, respectively, indicating that the accuracy of the method was good; the relative standard deviations were 6.1%-9.2%, 3.3%-8.2%, 3.2%-6.3% and 3.4%-7.5%, respectively, indicating that the precision of the method was good.

[0021] (7) When analyzing actual sewage samples from sewage treatment plants, the test results showed that both organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls were detected, which fully met the requirements for measuring and analyzing complex water samples. The recovery rate of the surrogate decachlorobiphenyl was between 83.7% and 106%. The results showed that the accuracy of the test results fully met the requirements.

[0054] 2. Instrument conditions

[0055] Chromatographic conditions: Column: HP-5ms: 60m x 0.25mm x 0.25μm; Injection port: 300°C, splitless injection, 1 μL injection volume; Column flow rate: 1.0 mL / min, constant flow.

When the volume ratio of n-hexane to dichloromethane is 9:1, the extraction recovery rate can reach 78.9%-95.7%. When 1% polyethylene glycol 4000 is added to the mixed extraction with a volume ratio of n-hexane to dichloromethane of 9:1, the extraction efficiency is significantly improved, and the extraction efficiency recovery rate reaches 84.6%-103%, indicating that the addition of polyethylene glycol 4000 has an improving effect.

Column temperature: 100°C, held for 6 min, then increased at 20°C / min to 260°C, held for 0 min, then increased at 5°C / min to 300°C, held for 13 min, for a total run time of 35 min.

[0067] Mass spectrometry conditions were as follows: SIM scanning; EI ion source at 300°C; quadrupole at 200°C; solvent delay of 15 min, interface temperature of 300°C; and helium as carrier gas.

[0068] 3. Selection of mixed extractant:

When 1% by mass of polyethylene glycol 4000 is added, the extraction efficiency is significantly improved. As the mass increases, the extraction efficiency decreases slightly.

[0073] Example 4

[0074] 1. Preparation of samples

[0075] Take 1000mL of blank sample in a 2000mL separatory funnel, add 10ng of mixed standard solution and substitute (1000μg / L×10μL), then add 20g of sodium chloride, shake until completely dissolved, and extract the water sample with 30mL of mixed extraction solvent (n-hexane + dichloromethane 9:1) and 1% of various polyethylene glycols by mass.

Test the blank sample simultaneously.

[0076] 2. Instrument conditions

[0077] Chromatographic conditions: Column: HP-5ms: 60m x 0.25mm x 0.25μm; Injection port: 300°C, splitless injection, 1 μL injection volume; Column flow rate: 1.0 mL / min, constant flow. Column temperature: 100°C, held for 6 min, then increased at 20°C / min to 260°C, held for 0 min, then increased at 5°C / min to 300°C, held for 13 min, for a total run time of 35 min.

[0078] Mass spectrometry conditions were as follows: SIM scanning; EI ion source at 300°C; quadrupole at 200°C; solvent delay of 15 min, interface temperature of 300°C; and helium as carrier gas.

[0079] 3. Selection of mixed extractant:

[0080] The volume ratio of n-hexane to dichloromethane was 9:1, and 1% by weight of polyethylene glycol was added to the extraction mixed solvent, wherein the polyethylene glycol was selected from polyethylene glycol 200, polyethylene glycol 300, polyethylene glycol 400, polyethylene glycol 600, polyethylene glycol 800, polyethylene glycol 1000, polyethylene glycol 1500, polyethylene glycol 2000, polyethylene glycol 3500 and polyethylene glycol 4000. The experimental results are shown in Table 4 below:

[0081] Table 4 Extraction results with different polyethylene glycol additions

[0082]

[0083]

[0084] The experimental results show that when the polyethylene glycol is a low molecular weight polymer, the extraction effect becomes worse. This may be because the low molecular weight polyethylene glycol has a strong affinity for water, dissolving a certain amount of extracted pollutants in water, resulting in a decrease in extraction efficiency. When the molecular weight gradually increases, the extraction efficiency gradually improves. When the molecular weight increases to 2000, the extraction efficiency is improved compared with the 9:1 ratio of pure hexane and dichloromethane. Among them, the extraction efficiency is the highest when polyethylene glycol 4000 is added.

[0085] Example 5

[0086] 1. Preparation of samples

[0087] Using 1000 mL of pure water as a blank, 5.0 μL of a mixed standard solution of 13 organochlorine pesticides and 9 polychlorinated biphenyls at 1000 μg / L (the spiked water sample concentration was 5 ng / L) was added. Seven spiked samples were analyzed according to the above water sample preparation and analytical methods. The detection limit and determination limit of the method were calculated with reference to the "Technical Guidelines for the Development of Environmental Monitoring Analytical Method Standards" (HJ 168-2020). Sample pretreatment was as follows: the water sample was extracted with a mixed extraction solvent of 9:1 hexane and dichloromethane and 1% polyethylene glycol 4000. After standing, the liquid was separated and the extraction was repeated twice with 30 mL of the same mixed extraction solvent. The combined extracts were dehydrated with anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated to approximately 1 mL using a multi-sample parallel quantitative concentrator. 20 ng of internal standard was added at a concentration of 1000 μg / L (20 μL). The concentrate was thoroughly mixed and finally transferred to a sample bottle for storage. A blank sample was also tested simultaneously.

[0088] 2. Instrument conditions

[0089] Chromatographic conditions: Column: HP-5ms: 60m x 0.25mm x 0.25μm; Injection port: 300°C, splitless injection, 1 μL injection volume; Column flow rate: 1.0 mL / min, constant flow. Column temperature: 100°C, held for 6 min, then increased at 20°C / min to 260°C, held for 0 min, then increased at 5°C / min to 300°C, held for 13 min, for a total run time of 35 min.

[0090] Mass spectrometry conditions were as follows: SIM scanning; EI ion source at 300°C; quadrupole at 200°C; solvent delay of 15 min, interface temperature of 300°C; and helium as carrier gas.

[0091] The determination results including correlation coefficient R, linear range and detection limit are shown in Table 5 below:

[0092] Table 5 Correlation coefficient R, linear range and detection limit results

[0093]

[0094]

[0095] The experimental results show that the correlation coefficient is greater than 0.997, the linear range is mostly 1-100 ng / L, and the detection limit is between 0.45 ng / L and 0.92 ng / L, which fully meets the requirements of existing standards.

Method precision data were calculated with reference to the "Technical Guidelines for the Development of Environmental Monitoring Analytical Method Standards" (HJ 168-2020). The accuracy and precision of the method were calculated using the results of parallel measurements of water samples at three concentration gradients, referring to the "Technical Guidelines for the Development of Environmental Monitoring Analytical Method Standards" (HJ 168-2020). The sample pretreatment is as follows: extract the water sample with a mixed extraction solvent: n-hexane + dichloromethane 9:1 and 1% polyethylene glycol 4000 by mass, let it stand and separate the liquids, then add 30 mL of the same mixed extraction solvent as the first time and repeat the extraction twice. After combining the extracts, dehydrate with anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrate to about 1 mL using a multi-sample parallel quantitative concentrator. Add 20 ng of internal standard at a concentration of 1000 μg / L in an amount of 20 μL, mix the concentrate thoroughly, and finally transfer it to a sample bottle for storage before testing. Simultaneously test the blank sample.

[0106] 1. Pretreatment of sewage samples

[0107] The laboratory tested the influent samples from the sewage treatment plant. 1000mL of sample was placed in a 2000mL separatory funnel. 10ng of the mixed standard solution and 10ng of the surrogate (1000μg / L×10μL) were added. 20g of sodium chloride was then added and shaken until completely dissolved. 30mL of extraction solvent (n-hexane + dichloromethane 9:1) was then used to extract the water sample. About 1% polyethylene glycol 4000 was added to the mixed extraction solvent. After standing, the liquid was separated and 30mL of the same mixed extraction solvent was added. The extraction was repeated twice. After the combined extracts were dehydrated with anhydrous sodium sulfate, the extracts were concentrated to about 1mL using a multi-sample parallel quantitative concentrator. 20ng of the internal standard (1000μg / L×20μL) was added and the concentrate was thoroughly mixed. Finally, the concentrate was transferred to a sample bottle for storage and a blank sample was tested simultaneously. The results of the sewage sample test are shown in Table 7:

[0112]

[0113] Experimental data show that the sewage test results of the sewage treatment plant show that both organochlorine pesticides and polychlorinated biphenyls were detected, which fully meets the measurement and analysis requirements of complex water samples. The recovery rate of the substitute decachlorobiphenyl is between 83.7% and 106%. The results show that the accuracy of the results fully meets the requirements.
