In-Situ Formation of Modified Nickel–Zinc-Layered Double Hydroxide Followed by HPLC Determination of Neonicotinoid Insecticide Residues

A single-step preconcentration procedure using the in-situ formation of modified nickel–zinc-layered double hydroxides (LDHs) prior to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is investigated for the determination of neonicotinoid insecticide residues in honey samples. The LDHs could be prepare...

description A single-step preconcentration procedure using the in-situ formation of modified nickel–zinc-layered double hydroxides (LDHs) prior to high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is investigated for the determination of neonicotinoid insecticide residues in honey samples. The LDHs could be prepared by the sequential addition of sodium hydroxide, sodium dodecyl sulfate, nickel nitrate 6-hydrate and zinc nitrate 6-hydrate, which were added to the sample solution. The co-precipitate phase and phase separation were obtained by centrifugation, and then the precipitate phase was dissolved in formic acid (concentrate) prior to HPLC analysis. Various analytical parameters affecting extraction efficiency were studied, and the characterization of the LDHs phase was performed using Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Under optimum conditions, the limit of detection of the studied neonicotinoids, in real samples, were 30 μg L<sup>−1</sup>, for all analytes, lower than the maximum residue limits established by the European Union (EU). The developed method provided high enrichment, by a factor of 35. The proposed method was utilized to determine the target insecticides in honey samples, and acceptable recoveries were obtained.
