Abstract: In the present study, a versatile combination of electromembrane extraction (EME) with thin film solid phase
microextraction (TF-SPME) was introduced using a microfluidic chip device. The device consisted of two single
channels on two separate layers. The upper channel was dedicated to donor phase flow pass, while the beneath
channel was used as a reservoir for stagnant acceptor solution. A slide of fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) was
accommodated in the bottom of the acceptor phase channel. A thin layer of polyaniline was electrodeposited on
the FTO surface to achieve the required thin film for TF-SPME. A stainless-steel wire was embedded in the donor
phase channel and another wire was also attached to the FTO surface. The channels were separated by a piece of
polypropylene membrane impregnated with 1-octanol and the whole chip was fixed with bolts and nuts. The
driving force for the extraction was an 8 V direct current (DC) voltage applied across the supported liquid
membrane (SLM). Under the influence of the electrical field, analytes immigrated from sample towards the
acceptor phase and then adsorbed on the thin film of the solid phase. Finally, the analytes were desorbed by
successive movement of a desorption solvent in the acceptor phase channel followed by injection of the
desorption solution to HPLC-UV. The applicability of the proposed device was demonstrated by the determination
of four synthetic food dyes: Amaranth, Ponceau 4R, Allura Red, and Carmoisine, as the model analytes.
The effective parameters on the efficiency of the both EME and TF-SPME were investigated. Under the optimized
conditions, the microchip provided low LODs (1–10 μg L 1), and a wide linear dynamic range of 10–1000 μg L 1
for all analytes. The system also offered RSD values lower than 5.5% and acceptable reusability of the thin film
for multiple extractions.
