| Abstract: | "This study proposes a new approach to the optimization of the extraction of the volatile fraction of plant matrices using the headspace solid-phase microextraction (HS-SPME) technique. The optimization focused on the extraction time and temperature using a CAR/DVB/PDMS 50/30 mum SPME fiber and 100mg of a mixture of plants as the sample in a 15-mL vial. The extraction time (10-60 min) and temperature (5-60 degrees C) were optimized by means of a central composite design. The chromatogram was divided into four groups of peaks based on the elution temperature to provide a better understanding of the influence of the extraction parameters on the extraction efficiency considering compounds with different volatilities/polarities. In view of the different optimum extraction time and temperature conditions obtained for each group, a new approach based on the use of two extraction temperatures in the same procedure is proposed. The optimum conditions were achieved by extracting for 30 min with a sample temperature of 60 degrees C followed by a further 15 min at 5 degrees C. The proposed method was compared with the optimized conventional method based on a single extraction temperature (45 min of extraction at 50 degrees C) by submitting five samples to both procedures. The proposed method led to better results in all cases, considering as the response both peak area and the number of identified peaks. The newly proposed optimization approach provided an excellent alternative procedure to extract analytes with quite different volatilities in the same procedure" |
