Yayın Spray-assisted drop formation liquid-phase microextraction for the determination of sertraline in environmental water samples with matrix-matching calibration in GC–MS(SpringerOpen, 2024) Zeytinci, Nagehan Kübra; Akbıyık, Hilal; Tezgin, Emine; Zaman, Buse Tuğba; Dalgıç Bozyiğit, Gamze; Şaylan, Meltem; Bakırdere, SezginSertraline is used as an antidepressant drug for the treatment of psychiatric disorders, including anxiety and depres sion. In the current study, a simple and efective method was developed for the sensitive monitoring of sertraline in water samples using a GC–MS system. The spray-assisted droplet formation liquid-phase microextraction (SADF LPME) method was used as a sample preparation method for the enrichment of analytes. Accordingly, dichlo romethane was used as an extraction solvent and easily dispersed into a sample/standard solution using a lab-made modifed spray device without using a dispersing solvent. The signifcant factors afecting the SADF-LPME efciency, including sample pH, mixing conditions, extraction solvent type, and spray cycle, were univariately optimized to ascertain the extraction performance and applicability of the system. Under the optimized conditions, the plotted calibration curve of the method was linear in the range of 100.2–2011.7 µg/kg (mass-based standard preparation) with a good correlation coefcient (R2 ) of 0.9997. The detection and quantifcation limits of method were found to be 37.5 and 125 µg/kg, respectively. Validation of the method was successfully carried out using diferent tap water samples and applying a matrix-matching calibration strategy. The acceptable percent recoveries were recorded between 77.3 and 133.7%, with high repeatability. The recommended method is an alternative and fast extraction method with several advantages, including a simple experimental process, good dispersibility, and fast and superior extraction performance. It can be readily applicable to the monitoring and quantifcation of sertraline in tap water samples with good precision and accuracy.Yayın Efficient removal of estrone and 17β‑estradiol from aqueous medium using UV irradiation‑assisted fenton process(Springer Link, 2024) Dikmen, Yaren; Şaylan, Meltem; Oflu, Sude; Fırat Ayyıldız, Merve; Serbest, Hakan; Dalgıç Bozyiğit, Gamze; Bakırdere, SezginThe endocrine-disrupting compounds (EDCs) have high-risk implications for public health and the environment due to their potential to interfere with endocrine system functions. This study is based on an evaluation of the applying the UV-assisted Fenton process for the removal and degradation of 17β-estradiol and estrone in aqueous medium. The simple and affordable UV irradiation system was developed and applied to accelerate the Fenton reaction. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) was employed for the quantitative measurements of estrogenic hormones at 230 nm, which is highly sensitive and capable of accurately measuring hormones within 15 min. The LOD/LOQ values of HPLC system were recorded to be 0.03/0.11 mg/kg and 0.05 /0.15 mg/kg for estrone and 17β-estradiol, respectively. Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles and iron (II) sulfate solution were evaluated as appropriate iron sources under fixed UV irradiation to assess the Fenton process. The main parameters, namely hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) amount, iron (II) sulfate amount, pH, and UV irradiation period, were optimized univariately for determining the optimum conditions. The optimum conditions were recorded to be: 0.70 mL of pH 3.0 buffer solution, 1.25 mL of H2O2, 0.80 mL of 100 mg/L Fe2+ solution, and an irradiation time of 60 min. The removal experiments were also carried out on domestic wastewater to validate the system’s applicability. The percent removal efficiencies of both estrogenic hormones were calculated at higher than 99%. These results showed that high efficiency was achieved within the detection limits of the HPLC system. This proves the possibility of complete degradation of the analytes and their efficiency and practicality for pollution control and water quality improvement in future studies.Yayın Development of an HPLC-UV method for the simultaneous determination of allantoin and D-panthenol in cosmetic products containing Aloe vera extracts(Akadémiai Kiadó (AK), 2024) Ceylan, Burhan; Kepekçi Tekkeli, Şerife EvrimA simple, fast and selective analytical method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of allantoin and D-panthenol in cosmetic products containing Aloe vera extracts.
