Tea are the most widely consumed beverages in the world and without knowing the concentration of PAHs presence in the tea can be risky since PAHs can easily enter all the organ once it is consumed. PAHs are known for its genotoxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic effects to humans. Traces amount of polyc...

PAHs are known for its genotoxic, mutagenic and carcinogenic effects to humans. Traces amount of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in tea beverages have made their analyses difficult, thus sample pre-concentration essential. This study investigated activated carbon (AC) prepared from palm oil empty fruit bunch (EFB) encapsulated in two different biopolymers which are Alginate-EFB-AC beads (Alg-EFB-AC beads) and Agarose-EFB-AC gels (Agr-EFB-AC gels) for the microextraction of PAHs from tea samples matrices prior to high performance liquid chromatography ultraviolet detection (HPLC/UV) and gas chromatography mass spectrometry detection (GC/MS), respectively.

The optimized condition Alg-EFB-AC beads/D-μ-SPE method is ethyl acetate as desorption solvent, 20 minutes extraction time, 15 minutes desorption time and 50 mg of sorbent. Under the optimized condition the method provides good linearity (r2≥0.9909) with good limit of detection (LODs) for analytes in tea samples in the range of 0.011 to 0.047 mg/L.
