RESUMO
We developed a method for the determination of chloropropanol esters and glycidyl esters (GE) in instant noodles using solid-phase microextraction with chitosan-ß-cyclodextrin (CS-ß-CD) coated fiber coupled with gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The developed low-cost fiber coating can improve the sensitivity of the method. Immobilized enzymes can improve operational stability and reusability compared to free enzymes, thereby reducing costs. The adsorption isotherm was modeled using the Langmuir model, while the adsorption kinetics followed the pseudo second-order model. The limit of detection was 0.3 ng/L. The method exhibited satisfactory recoveries for the analytes, ranging from 80.2 % to 105.3 %, with relative standard deviations < 9.9 %. Furthermore, the results of the exposure assessment showed that chloropropanol esters do not pose unacceptable risks to different age groups. However, the margin of exposure for GE suggested a potential health risk for populations between the ages of 3 and 12 years old.
