Sodium dodecyl sulfate sensitized switchable solvent liquid-phase microextraction for the preconcentration of protoberberine alkaloids in Rhizoma coptidis.

A sodium dodecyl sulfate sensitized switchable solvent liquid-phase microextraction method was developed and applied to the preconcentration of active alkaloids in Rhizoma coptidis followed by high performance liquid chromatography determination. Before extraction, nonionic triethylamine was converted to its cationic form in the presence of carbon dioxide. Then, the ionic solvent carrying target analytes was once more reverted to its nonionic form by adding sodium hydroxide, as well as phase separation and analytes enrichment were realized simultaneously. Several parameters affecting the approach, such as concentration of sodium dodecyl sulfate, extraction solvent volume, sodium hydroxide concentration, sample phase pH, injection solvent type, and extraction time, were investigated and optimized. The possible microextraction mechanism of double micelle supramolecular inclusion was explored. Under the optimum conditions, the enrichment factors of four protoberberine alkaloids were from 101.8 to 152.0. The linear ranges (with r2  ≥ 0.990) were 0.032-4.23, 0.031-4.33, 0.0026-10.04, and 0.0013-4.13 μg/mL for epiberberine, coptisine, palmatine, and berberine, respectively. The detection limits were in the range of 0.16-0.32 ng/mL. Satisfactory accuracies (recoveries 98.8-104.6%) and precisions (RSDs 1.9-10.9%) were also obtained. The results showed that the approach is rapid, effective, eco-friendly, and easy-to-handle for the enrichment and detection of active alkaloids in Rhizoma coptidis.
