In recent years, the presence of bisphenol A in food, drinking water, and toys is considered as a toxic compound. In this research, a Fabric-phase sorptive extraction using an organic-inorganic coating as an adsorbent was used to separate bisphenol A in different samples. The isolated bisphenol A was measured by high-performance liquid chromatography. The organic-inorganic coating was done with other methods. Optimal conditions for selecting the type of fabric and bis phenol A extraction were obtained by the central composite design in 3 and 5 variables according to the response surface methodology. At first, the influencing factors in NFPSE such as fabric type, number of sol-gel connections, and binding time were investigated. Also, the effects of different parameters on adsorption such as sample volume, adsorption time, solution desorption volume, desorption time and pH were examined. The calibration curve in the region (0.1-15 ng.mL-1) for bisphenol A was linear with a correlation coefficient of more than 99%.The detection limit (LODs)andthe limit of quantificationwere 0.11 ng.mL-1 and 0.37 ng.mL-1 respectively.Repeatability (RSD) with three replicated experiments was 1.25%.The recovery was obtained for different samples in the range of 95 to 97 %. According to the obtained results, the method mentioned in this research can be introduced as a reproducible method with a high absorption capacity for bisphenol A determination in drinking water and toys.

This research is on the improvement of the procedure to determination of trace levels of antidepressant drug; fluoxetine in wastewaters. In this research a silica based sol-gel was applied for the extraction of fluoxetine from water samples. This two-phase technique is consisting of aqueous samples of fluoxetine (donor phase) and silica based nanocomposite prepared by sol-gel technique (acceptor phase). Accepter phase was held in the pores and lumen of polypropylene hollow fiber segment. Microextraction experiments were carried out in two steps; extraction from analyte samples by sorbent which is held into the hollow fiber segment and desorption of drug from hallow fiber by using of methanol. Desorbed analyte in order to measurement were offered to HPLC and UV-V is spectrophotometer for further analysis. This method is simple, fast and adopted by a majority of the instrumental methods. Extraction parameters such as sol-gel aging time, pH of donor phase, volume of donor phase, extraction time, stirring rate and effect of surfactant were investigated and optimized. The measurements were done under the optimal conditions. This technique has many advantages, such as the short extraction time, low consumption of organic solvents, elimination of carry-over effect, low limit of detection and high pre-concentration factor. The pre-concentration factor and limit of detection have been gained 3227 and 0.53 ng mL-1, respectively. The linear range and relative standard deviation are 1.0-10000.0 ng mL-1 and 4.8% (n=3), respectively.
