An aqueous surfactant solution containing 5% Triton X114 was used for extraction of tobacco alkaloids. Then, the analytes were back-extracted with ultrasonic assistance from the surfactant-rich phase into dichloromethane. No other cleanup step preceded GC-MS analysis. Seven alkaloids in tobacco sample with different concentrations were analyzed simultaneously. Results show that the recovery of nicotine is 80.4% and the limit of detection (LOD) is 7.1@mgg^-^1. The relative standard deviations for the seven alkaloids are in the range of 2.77-9.97%. The results yielded by the proposed method were almost identical with those achieved by the more laborious industrial standard method, i.e., the continuous flow method. |
