Cloud point preconcentration of rather polar compounds: application to the high-performance liquid chromatographic determination of priority pollutant chlorophenols
2000
The potential of the cloud point methodology for the preconcentration of relatively polar compounds was studied using the non-ionic surfactant Triton X-114 and five EPA chlorophenols as test analytes. Analyte determination was performed using reversed-phase gradient LC with electrochemical and spectrophotometric detection. The amount of surfactant used is a critical variable in the preconcentration factor because it determines the extraction yield and the volume of surfactant-rich phase obtained. These values were determined as a function of the Triton X-114 concentration, together with the phase ratio, which allows prediction of the maximum preconcentration factor under given conditions.
