摘要:
The paper presents a simple, but very effective and sensitive spectrophotometric method for trace analysis of Niclosamide based on liquid-liquid microextraction using deep eutectic solvents (DESs) prior to its quantification. Here, different DES systems, such as Choline chloride (ChCl) + Urea, ChCl + Citric acid, ChCl + Ethylene glycol and ChCl + Phenol, were synthesized and evaluated at different molar ratios, selecting ChCl + Phenol 1:2 as an extractive DES system. Optimization studies revealed that best performance were obtained at pH 8 with optimum volume of THF and DES as 0.3 mL and 0.4 mL, respectively. The developed method is characterized by good analytical performance, e.g., a recovery of 99.26% and precision described by RSD value as <2%. The inter-assay precision was 0.51% while intermediate precision was 0.0323%. The method was found linear from 4.8 to 48 mu g/L. LOD and LOQ were found as 0.112 and 0.374 mu g/L, respectively. The paper presents also examples of the application of the proposed method for the determination of Niclosamide in different pharmaceutical and wastewater samples. This alternative method reveals a better performance in respect to the British pharmacopoeia procedure, providing concurrently ease of operation and simplicity. (C) 2021 Elsevier B.V.
