  Background and Objective: Separation and determination of trace amounts of cobalt ions in real samples due to their toxicity to humans is very important. In the present study, a nanocellulose was synthesized by the acid hydrolysis and then modified with 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylamino phenol (5-Br-PADAP). The size of cellulose nanofibers was determined using transmission electron microscope (TEM). After modification of the nano-sorbent with the 5-Br-PADAP, the thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of the modified nanocomposite was carried out, and the BET technique was used to determine the surface area of the nano-sorbent before and after modification. In the present work, the aim is to modify the surface of nanocellulose with ligand of 5-Br-PADAP to use them to extraction and pre-concentration of trace amounts of cobalt ions before determination it by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy in real samples.Material and Methodology: Certain volume of cobalt ion into the test tube containing the modified nanosorbent was Poured and buffer solution with pH = 9 was added and place it in a shaker and finally centrifuged for 15 minutes and then discard the top solution and 1 mL HCl was added to recover cobalt ions and placed in a shaker for 10 minutes and then centrifuged, and the absorption of the supernatant was determined by FAAS. The results showed that the modified nanocellulose is very sensitive and selective towards the determination of cobalt ions which could be affected by several parameters such as pH, adsorbent amount, sample volume, extraction time, and type of eluetion.Findings: The calibration curve is linear in the range of 10-500 ng/mL, and the detection limit and the relative standard deviation (RSD) are calculated to be 4.3 ng/mL and 1.8 %, respectively, that result in a high preconcentration and enrichment factor.Discussion and Conclusions: By using the flame atomic absorption spectrometry and applying the standard addition method, the proposed method was used to determination of the trace amounts of cobalt ions in the natural water samples such as seawater, river water, well water, lake water and tap water, with satisfactory results.

  Theophylline (1,3-dimethyl-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro-1-hydrogen-purine-6,2-dione) is a bronchodilator drug used in the treatment of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Due to the narrow therapeutic strip of this drug, it is important to measure its blood level.To achieve a simple, safe and sensitive method based on dispersive solid phase extraction (DSPE) using magnetite nanoparticles covered with nanocellulose and beta-cyclodextrin for preconcentration and measurement of theophylline in aqueous samples and its validation, this method was used. In this research, variables affecting the extraction such as pH, ionic strength, and amount of adsorbent, temperature, time, limit volume and type of solvent were optimized. After extraction, the adsorbent was easily separated from the aqueous sample using an external magnetic field without filtration or centrifugation. The results showed that optimum conditions were obtained with pH=5, 1 mg of sodium chloride, 0.2 g of adsorbent with a capacity of 0.53 mg/g, temperature of 40 degrees Celsius, 20 minutes of contact between the adsorbent and the sample and 5 mL of methanol as the desorption solvent. In optimal conditions, the suitable concentration factor is 12, low detection limit (0.17 mg/L), wide linear range and in accordance with the therapeutic strip of the drug (5-50 mg/L), good correlation coefficient (R2=0.9991) and good accuracy (RSD=1.03%) was obtained.Urine sample was used to validate the above method. Also, it was found that the proposed method is suitable, efficient and usable for measuring of theophylline. Manuscript profile
