Rapid Synergistic Cloud Point Extraction (RS-CPE) with Partial Least Squares (PLS) for the Simultaneous Determination of Chlorophenols (CPs) in Environmental Water Samples Using a Microplate Assay (MPA)

A sensitive method termed rapid synergistic cloud point extraction (RS-CPE) combined with partial least squares (PLS) was developed for the extraction and simultaneous determination of trace amounts of phenol and three detrimental chlorophenols (CPs) via a microplate assay (MPA). In this study, n-pentanol was used as a novel synergistic inducer and the linear nonionic surfactant Tergitol 15-S-7 was used as an extractant. The whole process of...
