    Journal: J Food Sci; 2020 Apr; 85(4):1098-1104. PubMed ID: 32147835.
    Abstract:
    Newly developed magnetic carbon particles prepared from coffee grounds were used as the sorbent for the magnetic solid-phase extraction of eight phthalic acid esters (PAEs) from plastic bottled water prior to their analysis by GC-MS. The method, which uses coffee-ground particles coated with iron oxide, was validated, and exhibited linearities for the eight PAEs, with coefficients of determination above 0.998 in the 0.005 to 0.1 mg/L concentration range. Limits of detection and limits of quantification of 0.00003 to 0.002 mg/L and 0.0001 to 0.005 mg/L, respectively, were achieved, with recoveries (%) ranging between 77% and 120%, and relative standard deviations for intra- and interday precisions below 16.3% at three fortification levels. No PAE residues were detected when the developed and validated method was applied to 10 real plastic bottled water samples. Taken together, the developed magnetic solid-phase extraction method is a useful tool for monitoring phthalate esters in aqueous samples. PRACTICAL APPLICATION: The development of a new, inexpensive, and efficient magnetic sorption material derived from spent coffee grounds, and its ability to determine phthalate esters in aqueous solutions was described by GC-MS/MS. The developed magnetic solid-phase extraction method is a useful tool for monitoring phthalate esters in aqueous samples.
