    Abstract:
    Herein, we applied a simple electrosynthesis process to deposit nickel-iron layered double hydroxides (NiFe LDH) on the surface of copper hydroxide (Cu(OH)2) needle-shaped nanoarrays and introduce a new sorbent for thin-film solid phase microextraction (TF-SPME). For this purpose, the nanoarrays were grown via electrochemical anodization on a copper foil's surface and then modified with NiFe LDH. The synthesized sorbent was characterized by field emission-scanning electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and Barrett-Joiner-Halenda (BJH) analysis, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The Cu(OH)2-NiFe LDH based TF-SPME method was used to measure antifungal drugs in veterinary plasma samples followed by HPLC-UV analysis. The effects of various parameters in the extraction efficiency, including pH (5.0), extraction time (20 min), stirring rate (500 rpm), and salt effect (5.0%), type of eluent (acetonitrile), eluent volume (100 μL) and desorption time (5 min) were thoroughly optimized. Under the optimum conditions, limits of detection for ketoconazole, clotrimazole, and miconazole were obtained below 10 ng mL-1. Intra-day, inter-day and film-to-film RSDs% were obtained less than 6.2%, 7.3% and 7.0%, respectively. Moreover, calibration plots were linear from 30 to 5000 ng mL-1 for ketoconazole, 8.0-1000 ng mL-1 for clotrimazole, and 15-1000 ng mL-1 for miconazole, with determination coefficients between 0.9937 and 0.9971. Finally, good relative recoveries (%) in the range of 85-97% were obtained for measuring trace amounts of antifungal drugs in dogs' plasma samples. As a result, the method can be considered as an appropriate alternative to the conventional sample preparation methods for measuring trace amounts of antifungal drugs in biological samples.
