A polydimethylsiloxane ( PDMS )/glass microfluidic chip consisting of a three-layer sandwich structure and three-parallel micro-electrode system was fabricated for the separation of polystyrene microspheres according to the particle size in high conductive solution by electric field produced by alternating current. The principle of electrokinetics of microspheres directional movement was investigated. The results showed that, when the applied voltage was 14 V at 100 kHz, the separation efficiency of 10 and 25 μm polystyrene microspheres was the best. Similarly, with a voltage of 10 V at 2 MHz, the separation efficiency of 5 and 25 μm polystyrene microspheres could achieve the highest value. Meanwhile, the voltage of 11 V at 1 MHz was suitable for the separation of 5 , 10 and 25 μm polystyrene microspheres with the separation efficiency of over 90%. At the same time, the formation of the laminar region in the middle of the electrode gap was the key role of microsphere separation.

The particles suspended in seawater have great influence on pollutant migration and transformation in marine environment, while the lipophilic algae toxins enriched by the particles suspended in seawater will lead more serious toxicity to marine filter feeders. In this study, a new method was developed for the simultaneous determination of eight lipophilic algae toxins in suspended particles by ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry ( UPLC-MS/MS ) . After extracted with methanol by ultrasonic-assisted extraction, the sample was separated on an Acquity UPLC BEH C18 column (50 mm×2. 1 mm, 1. 7 μm) using gradient elution of acetonitrile and water containing 5 mmol/L ammonium acetate as eluent modifiers. The qualitative and quantitative analyses were carried out by electrospray ionization ( ESI) tandem mass spectrometry in multiple reaction monitoring ( MRM) mode. Under the optimal conditions, satisfactory precision (relative standard deviations (RSD≤14. 1%), recoveries (83. 8%-110. 4%) and detection limits (2. 9-103 pg/g) of the method were achieved. Good linearity (R2≥0. 99) was also obtained for all studied analytes. Then, the method was applied to determine the amounts of the eight lipophilic marine toxins in authentic suspended particle samples collected from Qingdao near-shore area. Pectenotoxin 2 ( PTX2 ) was detected in the samples from Shilaoren beach and No. 3 bathing beach with concentration ranges of 717 and 790 pg/g, respectively.
