Abstract
We applied a sensitive method based on on-line solid-phase extraction (SPE) and liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry (LC/MSD) using an electrospray interface for the determination of eleven perfluorinated compounds (PFCs) in water. The on-line connection suppressed the target loss by keeping the cartridge from drying, which resulted in improvement of the recovery and saving of the analytical time. For the on-line solid-phase extraction of 10 mL water samples, recoveries were between $80.4{\pm}5.2%{\sim}109.5{\pm}1.4%$ and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 3.6~15.9 ng/L for the PFCs. The total PFCs concentrations of the tributaries and main stream of Nakdong River water samples were in the range of $8.0{\sim}678.6{\mu}g/L$.
