Biomass magnetic porous carbon prepared from mangosteen shell for the preconcentration of three bisphenols from beverages followed by liquid chromatography with quadrupole‐Orbitrap high‐resolution mass spectrometry determination

Natural biomass magnetic porous carbon was successfully prepared via a cost-effective and green route using mangosteen shells as raw material. The prepared magnetic porous carbon was used as a magnetic solid-phase extraction adsorbent for bisphenols enrichment from beverages followed by high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-Orbitrap high-resolution mass spectrometry. Parameters affecting extraction efficiency including sample solution pH, adsorbent amount, extraction time, eluent type, and volume were optimized. Results showed that biomass magnetic porous carbon had excellent adsorption properties for bisphenols due to its large specific surface area and abundant functional groups, which could form hydrogen bonding and π-π stacking with bisphenols. The enrichment factor of 3 bisphenols was in the range of 15-19. Under optimum conditions, favorable linearity for all analytes was obtained with correlation coefficients higher than 0.998. Recoveries of spiked samples were in the range of 88.5-105.1% with a relative standard deviation of 3.4-5.5%. These results demonstrated that magnetic porous carbon may be a promising adsorbent for the enrichment of aromatic compounds.
