Dispersive clean-up process based on a magnetic graphene oxide nanocomposite for determination of 2-glycerol monopalmitate in olive oil prior to GC-FID and GC-MS analysis.

The MGO based d-SPE method was applied for clean-up purposes to determine 2-GMP%. It proved superior via its advantageous features of super quickness, easy isolation with an external magnet and the highly efficient exclusion of all the coexisting interfering peaks conventionally generated with a standard silica-gel material. These methods based on MGO and silica-gel are reflected in the dispersive mode of extraction and can be used as alternatives to conventional methods. Considering the benefits of the consumption of significantly fewer sorbents and less time required regarding the dispersive methods, the methods can be utilized as alternatives in contrast to conventional techniques. © 2021 Society of Chemical Industry.
