Extraction

Weigh 5 g of honey into a 50 mL centrifuge tube, add 10 mLof water. Vortex for 1 min. Add 20 mL of n-hexane-acetonesolution (1:1), and vortex for 3 min. Centrifuge at 9500 r/min for 5 min, and transfer the upper layer to a 150 mLflask. Repeat the extraction once with 20 mL of n-hexaneacetone solution (1:1). Combine the extracted solution, andconcentrate in a water bath at 40 °C under reduced pressureto nearly dryness. Add 3 mL of n-hexane to dissolve and setaside.

Purification(Copure® Florisil SPE Cartridge, 1000 mg/ 6 mL)

Activate the Copure® Florisil SPE Cartridge by 5 mLof n-hexane-acetone solution (95:5), then 5 mL ofn-hexane. Pipette the prepared solution to the cartridge.Wash the flask with 3 mL of n-hexane, and transfer tothe cartridge. Elute with 10 mL of n-hexane-acetonesolution (95:5).

Collect the eluate and evaporate to nearly dryness at 40℃ . Reconstitute with 1.0 mL of n-hexane. The sampleis ready for analysis.
