Investigation of organophosphorus (OPs) compounds by a needle trap device based on mesoporous organo-layered double hydroxide (organo-LDH).

ABSTRACT: Organophosphorus (OPs) compounds can endanger human health and the environment by inhibiting the acetylcholinesterase enzyme. But these compounds have been widely used as pesticides due to their effectiveness against all kinds of pests. In this study, a Needle Trap Device (NTD) packed with mesoporous organo-layered double hydroxide (organo-LDH) material and coupled with gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was employed for the sampling and analysis of OPs compounds (diazinon, ethion, malathion, parathion, and fenitrothion). In this way, the [magnesium-zinc-aluminum] layered double hydroxide ([Mg-Zn-Al] LDH) modified with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as a surfactant was prepared and characterized by FT-IR, XRD, BET, and FE-SEM, EDS, and elemental mapping techniques. Then, various pa
