Application of Box-Behnken Design in the Optimization of a Pipette Tip Solid Phase Extraction Using Modified Carbon Nanotubes for Spectrophotometric Determination of Malachite Green in Chabahar Bay Seawaters
This paper describes trace determination of malachite green (MG) as a water pollutant dye by convenient spectrophotometry. A water-soluble hyper-branched polyamine was first prepared using the nuclophilic ring opening reaction of diepoxy and diamine monomer, which was then used for functionalization of multiwalled carbon nanotubes. This compound (named WHPA-OMCNT) was applied as a highly efficient adsorbent for the extraction of MG from seawater samples of Chabahar Bay (located in the southern east of Iran). WHPA-OMCNT was used in a pipette-tip solid phase extraction process; and for this extraction, different parameters affecting the extraction efficiency, including type and volume of eluent solvent, sample of volume, number of cycles of extraction and elution, pH of sample solution, type and amount of salt, and concentration of surfactant (triton X-114) were optimized using both one-variable-at-a-time and Box-Behnken response surface methodology techniques employing seven factors in three-levels. Under optimum conditions, the linear range of proposed method for MG was 4-250 µg L-1 with a detection limit of 0.80 µg L-1 and RSDs better than 6.4%.
