Aptamer functionalized magnetic metal-organic framework MIL-101 (Cr)-NH2 for specific extraction of acetamiprid from fruit juice and water samples

An aptamer-functionalized magnetic metal-organic framework (MMIL-Apt) was prepared and used for selective magnetic solid phase extraction (MSPE) of acetamiprid. To examine the morphology of the adsorbent, different techniques such as FT-IR spectrometry, vibrating sample magnetometery, TEM, FE-SEM and EDS were employed. The MMIL-Apt combines the advantages of aptamers and magnetic MMIL-101(Cr)-NH2 such as specific recog-nition of analyte, good stability and fast separation. To reach high MSPE recovery, various extraction parameters were examined and optimized. The limit of detection (LOD) was reached 0.0018 mu g L-1. This method showed perfect linearity (0.006-1800 mu g L-1) with a good correlation coefficient (R-2 = 0.9993). The relative standard deviations for intra-and inter-day analyses were 3.61% and 8.10%. The extraction recoveries in water samples and fruit juices were obtained from 80.20% to 101.81 %. The results indicated the modified sorbent is practically applicable for the specific extraction of trace amounts of acetamiprid from different matrices.
