In this study, a new magnetic nanocomposite comprised of a molecularly imprinted polymer, metal organic framework, and covalent organic framework was synthesized and used in the dispersive solid-phase extraction of montelukast from plasma and urine samples. The extracted analyte was then analyzed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The drug extraction process involved adding the synthesized nanocomposite to the biological sample. After vortexing, the solid particles were collected using an external magnet. The adsorbed analyte was subsequently eluted with acetonitrile. By combining of the developed method with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry, low limits of detection (0.04 and 0.05 ng mL -1 in urine and plasma, respectively) and quantification (0.14 and 0.16 ng mL -1 in urine and plasma, respectively), a wide linear range (0.14-300 and 0.16-300 ng mL -1 in urine and plasma, respectively), acceptable relative standard deviations for intra- and inter-day precisions (≤6.3 %), and good extraction recoveries (75 and 72 % in urine and plasma samples, respectively) were achieved., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier B.V.

In this research, a new covalent organic framework was synthesized and utilized as a coating in thin film microextraction for the extraction of apixaban from plasma samples. This coating was applied to the mesh modified through immersion in a HF solution. The extracted drug was then analyzed using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. By combining the high specific surface area and selectivity of the covalent organic framework, along with integrating the innovative thin film microextraction method and a sensitive analysis system, an efficient analytical approach was achieved. The target analyte was preconcentrated and extracted by immersing of the covalent organic framework-coated mesh as an absorbent into the biological sample. Subsequently, a sonication process was conducted for a specific duration. Following this, the extracted analyte was desorbed using acetonitrile as the elution solvent. The effective parameters of the proposed technique were optimized by using "one-parameter-at-a-time" strategy and the optimal conditions were selected. By integrating the developed method notable achievements were made in the terms of low limits of detection and quantification (0.17 and 0.56 µg/L, respectively), a wide linear range (0.05-250 µg/L), intra- and inter day precisions (with relative standard deviations of ≤14 %), as well as satisfactory extraction recoveries (53 % and 54 % in plasma and deionized water, respectively). Hence, it can be concluded that the introduced technique exhibits high efficiency and reliability when applied to biological samples., Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper., (Copyright © 2024 Elsevier B.V.
