Determination of quinolones in environmental water and fish by magnetic metal organic frameworks based magnetic solid-phase extraction followed by high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry.

The widespread use of quinolones has become an increasing global public health threat. In this study, IRMOF-3 coated SiO/FeO were prepared via a facile room-temperature method. The prepared IRMOF-3 coated SiO/FeO was used as a sorbent for magnetic solid phase extraction, and then combined with high-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry for the determination of 10 quinolines. The extraction conditions of magnetic solid phase extraction were studied in detail, and the optimal conditions were established. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the limits of quantification of 10 quinolones were in the range of 0.005-0.01 μg L, the relative standard deviations were 6.58-10.6% (n=7), the enrichment factors were 21.0-23.8 for water samples. The limits of quantification of 10 quinolones were in the range of 0.10-0.20 μg kg, the relative standard deviations were 5.95-14.5% (n=7), the enrichment factors were 1.08-1.24 for fish samples. The proposed method was applied for the determination of 10 quinolones in river water, aquacultural water and a fish sample, and enrofloxacin and ciprofloxacin were found in the fish sample.
