Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the field of analytical testing technology, and particularly relates to a solid-phase microextraction probe for highly selective enrichment of perfluoro, polyfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid and its substitutes, and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of organic compounds containing perfluoroalkyl chains, which are widely used in industry and daily life, such as waterproof agents, antifouling agents, fire-fighting foams, etc. Perfluorooctyl sulfonic acid (PFOS) is a substance controlled by the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants, and perfluoro and polyfluoro compounds have been listed in the List of Key Controlled New Pollutants (2023 edition). Measures taken for these fluorine-containing compounds are to prohibit production and processing use. Regulatory actions for these compounds include prohibition of production and use. These strict regulations have prompted people to explore substitutes, and newly emerging short-chain perfluoroalkanes may have greater toxicity and dispersibility, becoming an environmental problem. Due to the characteristics of perfluoro and polyfluoro compounds, such as high thermal stability, high chemical inertness and biological inertness, they are difficult to degrade in the environment and organisms, leading to environmental pollution and biological accumulation worldwide. Perfluoro and polyfluoro compounds have been proven to have adverse effects on human and animal health, such as endocrine disruption, liver damage, immune system suppression, etc. Therefore, it is of great significance to rapidly, accurately and sensitively detect perfluoro, polyfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid and its substitutes in environmental and biological samples.

[0003] Currently, the detection methods of perfluorinated and polyfluorinated compounds mainly include liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS / MS), gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (GC-MS / MS) and direct mass spectrometry (DI-MS). Among them, direct mass spectrometry has the advantages of simple operation, fast analysis speed, high sensitivity, etc., but also has the disadvantages of high sample complexity, many interfering components, low detection efficiency, etc. In recent years, ambient ionization mass spectrometry (AI-MS) has become an important technology for mass spectrometry analysis, and has been widely used in food and drug detection, environmental monitoring and molecular imaging fields. Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry is a branch of ambient mass spectrometry (AMS), which uses electrospray ionization mechanism, analyzes by direct ionization strategy, and uses tungsten needle, glass rod, paper, wood tip and other solid substrates. Various atmospheric pressure ionization technologies have emerged, including desorption electrospray ionization (DESI), direct analysis in real time (DART) and paper spray ionization (PSI). The ionization process is realized in an open atmospheric environment, with few or no sample processing steps, and has the advantages of real-time, convenience, speed and high throughput. In order to improve the detection effect of direct mass spectrometry, the sample needs to be pretreated to remove unnecessary components and enrich the target analyte. Common pretreatment methods include liquid-liquid extraction (LLE), solid phase extraction (SPE) and solid phase microextraction (SPME). Among them, solid phase microextraction has the advantages of simple operation, less solvent consumption and less sample loss, and is an ideal pretreatment method. The key to solid phase microextraction is to select a suitable solid phase microextraction probe to achieve efficient enrichment of the target analyte. At present, some solid phase microextraction probes have been used for the enrichment of perfluorinated and polyfluorinated compounds, such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP). However, these solid phase microextraction probes have low selectivity for perfluorinated and polyfluorinated compounds, and are easily interfered by other components, resulting in low enrichment efficiency. Persistent organic pollutants, especially PFAS and their substitutes, have caused environmental problems that cannot be ignored. Based on the above technical defects, it is of great significance to develop a new type of solid phase microextraction (SPME) probe with high selectivity for perfluorinated, polyfluorinated alkyl sulfonic acid and its substitutes, and to develop a method that can realize ambient open electrospray direct mass spectrometry.

[0040] Example 2

[0041] The present example provides a determination of the performance of different preparation processes of a perfluoro, polyfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid and its substitutes solid phase microextraction probe

[0042] (1) The tungsten steel probe is modified by surface silanization. 3-(trimethoxysilyl) methyl methacrylate is dissolved in different reaction solvents, and the ratio of reactant to reaction solvent is 10%. The reaction solvents include toluene, N,N-dimethylformamide, acetonitrile, and methanol, which are ultrasonically mixed and treated uniformly, and are used to soak the tungsten needle treated by surface hydroxylation.

[0044] Example 3

[0045] This example provides a morphology characterization of the solid phase microextraction probe prepared in Example 1 for detecting perfluoro, polyfluoro alkyl sulfonic acid and its substitutes. The specific method is as follows:

After the reaction is completed, the needle is washed several times with methanol and ultrapure water, and is dried in an oven at 50°C for 2 h to obtain a probe with a surface rich in methacryloxy groups. 1 mmoL of dimethylaminoethyl acrylate quaternary ammonium salt and 0.5 mmoL of 3,3,4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,8,8,9,9,10,10,10-heptadeca (fluoro) propyl acrylate are added to 20 mL of acetonitrile, which is placed in a magnetic stirrer and stirred at 200 rpm at room temperature for 10 min to obtain a uniform solution.

Finally, the template molecules were washed away by elution solvent, thereby obtaining a tungsten probe with a molecularly imprinted coating. In order to evaluate the enrichment effect of the two probes for perfluorinated compounds, nanoelectrospray mass spectrometry (nanoESI-MS) was used for analysis. The two probes were respectively placed into 50 mL of water sample containing 100 ng / L of perfluoro, polyfluoroalkyl sulfonic acid and its substitute standard solution, and extracted for 10 min at constant temperature. Then the probes were taken out and placed in pure water for 10 s, and then analyzed by nanoESI-MS after being naturally air-dried. 13 C4-PFOS was added as an internal standard to the desorption solvent, and the probe was installed together with the nanoelectrospray needle on a three-dimensional moving stage, with the tip of the probe aligned with and 5-15 mm away from the mass spectrometry inlet.
