“…22 After extractions, these compounds are analyzed by different techniques such as high resolution gas chromatography coupled to high resolution mass spectrometry (HRGC-HRMS), which has been applied as a reference methodology established by the USEPA. 19 However, other alternative methodologies have been used such as gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (GC-MS), 20 gas chromatography coupled to electron capture detection (GC-ECD), 1 gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry with triple quadrupole detector (GC-MS/MS), 8 high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV) 18,[23][24][25][26] and high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to fluorescence detection (HPLC-FD). 17,27 This paper aimed to optimize and validate the liquidliquid extraction with low-temperature partition and analyses by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled a diode array detector method (LLE/LTP-HPLC/DAD) for the determination of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (2,3,7,8-TCDD) and 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzofuran (2,3,7,8-TCDF) in water samples.…”
