RESUMEN

Magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) with cobalt ferrite nanoparticles coated with oleic acid is described for the determination of alkylphenols (APs), 4-tert-butylphenol (TBP), 4-pentylphenol (PP), 4-hexylphenol (HP), 4-tert-octylphenol (TOP), 4-n-octylphenol (OP) and 4-nonylphenol (NP) in baby foods using gas chromatography with mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Prior to MSPE, the sample was treated with trichloroacetic acid, and the APs derivatized with acetic anhydride. Parameters affecting the extraction efficiency: amount of magnetic nanoparticles, extraction time and desorption conditions, were optimized. The enriched phase obtained was evaporated to dryness and the residue reconstituted in 50μL of methanol, 1μL of which was injected into the GC-MS. Samples were quantified applying matrix-matched calibration and using 2-chloro-5-bromoanisole as surrogate standard. The analysis of 0.5g of sample provided detection limits in the 0.4-1.7ngg-1 range. Some samples contained APs at levels of between 3ngg-1 for HP and 122ngg-1 for TOP.
