Abstract

A solute collection method after off-line supercritical fluid extraction using a moving layer of liquid organic solvent flowing down through a fused-silica capillary (0.5 mm I.D.) is proposed. Recoveries of over 90% were measured for selected polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (acenaphthene, phenanthrene, fluoranthene, pyrene and benzo[a]pyrene) and s-triazine herbicides when methanol was used as a trapping solvent.

      Citation Excerpt :

      The selectivity for a specific analyte usually decreases, resulting in coextracted solutes which can also complicate analyte collection [60]. If a solid-phase trap is used for collection, its temperature must be high enough so that the modifier will not condense in the trap and cause breakthrough of the analytes off the trap [61,62]. An alternative is to use a longer trap of higher capacity for condensed modifier, thereby allowing the use of lower temperature [63].
