Abstract

In this research, an efficient sorbent based on poly(β-cyclodextrin-ester)-functionalized silica-coated magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs-CDP) was prepared and used for magnetic solid-phase extraction of the malachite green (MG) and crystal violet (CV) from water samples prior to their determination by high-performance liquid chromatography-ultra violet detection (HPLC-UV). The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by the field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). Of course, the factors, which could influence the extraction efficiency like pH, sorbent amount, salt content, extraction time, desorption time, eluent type, and volume and sample volume, were optimized by response surface methodology. Then, for both of MG and CV, good linearity (0.1–200 μg L−1, r2 ≥ 0.99) was achieved under the optimized conditions. The limits of detection (LODs) and the limits of quantification (LOQs), for both of MG and CV, were 0.03 μg L−1 and 0.1 μg L−1, respectively. Precision of the method expressed as the relative standard deviations (RSDs) at concentration level of 100 μg L−1 was 5.6 and 4.2 for MG and CV, respectively. Ultimately, usability of proposed method was investigated by analysis of CV and MG in tap water, fish pond water, and the lake water, and the satisfactory recoveries were obtained in the range of 92–100.5%.
