Under the optimised MSPE conditions, good linearity was achieved for the selected TCAs at concentrations ranging 0.05–1.0 mg L-1. The limit of detection and limit of quantification were 0.006–0.011 mg L-1 and 0.019–0.036 mg L-1, respectively. The intra-day and inter-day precisions were less than 3.38% and 5.59%, respectively. Satisfactory recoveries were obtained from real sample analysis ranging from 89.77– 106.33%. Meanwhile, the MSPE procedure for REEs was optimised with respect to the necessary parameters; sample solution at pH 4, 20 mg of adsorbent, 100 mL of sample, 5 min of extraction time, 0.5 M of HNO3 as the eluent and 3 min of desorption time. The method also revealed good linearity for the selected REEs, ranging from 10–1000 μg L-1.
