    Abstract:
    In the present work, a simple and high sensitive method based on hollow fiber liquid phase microextraction (HF-LPME) was developed followed by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for determination of ultra-trace amounts of Se(IV) after derivatization in biological and natural water samples. Se(IV) was complexed with o-phenylenediamine to form piazselenol. The formed piazselenol was extracted into 20 microL of 1-octanol located in the lumen of a hollow fiber and the solution was injected into HPLC-UV for analysis. Using the Taguchi method, an orthogonal array design (OAD), OA(16) (4(5)) was employed to optimize the HF-LPME of piazselenol. The effect of five experimental factors (each factor at four levels) including the volume of the organic phase, extraction time, pH of the solution, stirring rate and ionic strength on the extraction efficiency of piazselenol was studied and optimized. The maximum extraction efficiency of piazselenol was obtained at 20 microL of 1-octanol as the extracting solvent, 30 min extraction time, pH 2, stirring rate of 500 rpm and 30% (w/v) NaCl. Under the optimum conditions, preconcentration factors up to 130 were achieved and the relative standard deviation (%RSD) of the method was <3.7% for different concentrations of Se(IV). The calibration curves were obtained in the ranges of 0.2-100 and 0.05-10 microgL(-1) for the 11 and 50 mL of the sample volumes with reasonable linearity, respectively (r(2)> 0.995). The limits of detection (LOD) were 0.1 and 0.02 microgL(-1) for the 11 and 50 mL sample volumes, respectively (S/N - 3). Finally, the applicability of the proposed method was evaluated by the extraction and determination of Se(IV) in the plasma, urine and water samples.
