微波协助萃取的方法原理
微波协助萃取的方法原理
微波协助萃取（Microwave-assisted extraction, MAE）是一种新的样品萃取技术，
能够在短时间内从固体样品中萃取目标化合物。
MAE技术在环境、农业、生物和食品科学
中广泛应用，其优点主要表现在提高提取效率、缩短提取时间和减少有毒有害深度溶剂的
使用等方面。
MAE是利用微波电磁波的加热作用，在特定条件下改变样品中化合物的物理状态，改
善物质的扩散速度和提取速度，从而加速萃取过程。
具体来说，MAE须知样品与溶剂被转
移到微波反应瓶，该瓶能够吸收微波发射的能量，使溶剂快速加热到超过溶解化合物的温度，从而提取化合物。
MAE技术的优点在于其高效、快速和可靠的萃取效果。
相比传统的萃取方法，MAE能够显著缩短提取时间，提高提取效率和减少深度溶剂的使用量。
此外，MAE也能够获得高温、高压、高速度和高分辨率的萃取效果，同时减少了样品微生物污染的风险。
MAE技术的萃取效率受到很多因素的影响，比如微波功率、萃取时间、溶剂种类和比例、固相萃取（SPE）纯化等。
其中，微波功率是最重要的因素之一，通常情况下，微波功率越高，提取效果也就越好。
而萃取时间和溶剂种类比例则需根据具体实验条件灵活调整，以达到最佳的萃取效果。
最后需要注意的是，MAE技术的萃取过程必须进行完整的控制和监测，避免微波加热
过程中发生了爆炸或雷击事故，还需要谨慎选择微波瓶、溶剂和电器等设备，保证实验的
安全性和准确性。

微波萃取在环保中的应用
微波萃取技术在环境分析中的应用张明祥（美国CEM公司，北京，100013）摘要：本文介绍了微波萃取的基本原理，并综述了微波萃取技术在环境分析中的应用，主要包括微波萃取土壤中有机污染物（PAHs，TPHs，有机磷农药，有机氯农药以及重金属等），阐述了微波萃取技术是环境分析中萃取污染物的好方法。
关键词：微波萃取环境分析土壤有机污染物前言从古时，人们就开始致力于将一种物质从另外一种物质中提取出来，但是那时候还缺乏科学的提取方法。
自从化学提取法建立起来后，才从效率和速度上得到本质的提高。
但是即使在今天，从混合物中分离、富集依然是一件费力费时的工作，特别是在复杂环境样品分析应用中，还是碰到了相当的困难。
环境分析最关键的步骤之一就是样品的预处理，即从采集到的环境样品基体中（如废水、土壤、植物、食品、饲料等）提取出待测分析组分。
多年来人们一直在探索速度快、消耗少、效率高且重复性好的提取方法，从传统的溶剂振荡萃取、索氏提取，超声提取到新近发展起来的快速溶剂萃取和超临界萃取，这些技术由于成本和效率等问题，在应用中都存在了一定的局限性，而80年代中期开始发展起来的微波萃取技术（Microwave Extraction Method）表现出了巨大应用潜力和良好发展前景，无疑成为了萃取技术中的佼佼者。
微波萃取技术起步较微波消解技术晚，还处于初始阶段[1]。
微波消解应用得到充分验证以后，N. Gedye等人于1986年将微波技术应用于有机化合物萃取，他们把将样品放于普通家用微波炉中，通过功率/时间模式激发微波，几分钟就能萃取得到了传统加热需要几个小时甚至十几个小时才能得到的分析物[2]。
从此微波辐射技术应用研究激发了人们的兴趣，逐渐从消解应用发展到了萃取应用。
上世纪90年代，由加拿大环境保护部和美国CEM公司经过多年的研究，开发了新一代的微波萃取系统（MARSX），该系统采用了能量最小化技术，有效的防止了萃取物的分解，并提高了萃取回收率和重现行，并经过美国加州环保局对MARSX认证后，批准MARSX作为唯一标准萃取仪器。
美国EPA3546 新方法---微波快速溶剂萃取技术
美国EPA3546新方法---微波快速溶剂萃取技术刘伟张明祥杨海鹏（美国CEM公司，北京，100013）摘要：由加拿大环保局和美国CEM共同开发的MARSX快速微波溶剂萃取技术，是世界上唯一专利的微波萃取技术，也是唯一符合美国EPA3546方法的仪器。
MARSX获98年度全美R&D100大奖，低功率先行非脉冲微波磁控管技术实现连续高精确过程控制反应，MARSX利用闭环反馈控制技术，通过高精度高频率的温压控制系统精确调节微波能量输出激发极性试剂，并且内置CARBOFLON加热和极化非极性试剂，实现了快速完全的样品萃取制备，大大提高了现代气/液相色谱测定精度和效率。
其主要特点是: 快速, 安全，批量大，样品量大，节省溶剂，污染小。
前言样品预处理是样品分析过程中最关键、最耗时的环节。
在现代化实验室高度重视速度和效率的今天，探索快速、高效、简便、自动化的样品预处理新方法已成为当代分析化学的前沿课题和重要研究方向之一。
萃取是分离和提纯物质的一种常用方法，为GC、HPLC等有机分析方法提供样品前处理。
传统的萃取方法由于费时、费试剂、效率低、重现性差等缺点,已不能满足分析发展的需要,于是先后出现了微波辅助萃取（MAE）、超临界流体萃取(SFE)和加速溶剂萃取（ASE）等萃取方法。
但由于技术、成本和效率等问题，一些萃取方法在使用中受到了限制，而微波萃取则克服了以上的缺点, 表现出了巨大的应用潜力和良好的发展前景。
自从1986年匈牙利学者Ganzler提出了微波萃取法并从土壤、种子、食品、饲料中萃取分离化合物以来[1]，微波萃取技术以高效、低耗、无污染，成为近年来萃取技术的佼佼者,被誉为“绿色”萃取技术。
微波是指频率为300到300 000MHz的电磁波，介于红外线和无线电波之间。
民用微波频率一般采用2450MHz，所对应能量大约为0.96J/mol，微波的量子能级属于范德华力（分子间作用力）的范畴，与化合物键能相差甚远[2]。
微波萃取技术
微波萃取技术节选自：郭振库金钦汉《微波萃取技术》（吉林大学化学系，长春，130023）摘要：微波萃取技术在有机污染物和有害金属分离的研究和应用方面出现了令人鼓舞的进展。
微波萃取方法具有方便、快速、试剂消耗低、回收率高和可用水作萃取溶剂的优点。
本综述介绍了微波萃取技术的原理、方法、设备和应用研究现状。
关键词：微波萃取技术设备方法综述一、概述现在，绝大多数的分析样品需要使用原子吸收光谱仪（AAS）、电感耦合等离子体发射光谱仪（ICP-AES）、气/液相色谱仪（GC/LC）、质谱仪、分子光谱仪等进行其中成分或元素的测定。
这些检测仪器一般都需用均匀液体样品，因此需要对原始样品进行消解、萃取、抽提或分离，然后才可能用上述仪器加以测定。
目前，常规样品萃取方法有分液漏斗法、超声萃取法或Soxhlet（索氏）提取法。
这些萃取法一般要用几小时或一天的时间，有些样品所需的萃取时间更长。
这些常规前处理方法不仅制样时间长，试剂用量大并对环境造成一定程度的污染，而且准确性和精密性已经不适应现代快速测定的要求。
此外，常规前处理方法长的制样时间，不能满足需要确定样品有效成分组成和结构的分析研究要求。
自Ganzler等人[1]报导用微波加热促进溶剂萃取污染土壤中的有机化合物以来，分析样品的微波萃取法由于萃取时间短、选择性好、回收率高、试剂用量少、污染低、可用水作萃取剂[2]的优点和可自动控制制样条件等而得到了分析工作人员的认同[3]，因而在设备研究、应用开发、机理探讨方面均有可喜的研究报导。
虽然微波萃取土壤中的有机污染化合物已有标准方法EPA3546[4]，但就目前而言，微波萃取的应用对象还比较少，与微波消解技术相比，微波萃取技术及其应用研究工作还处于最初的阶段[5]，微波萃取法还是一种相对年轻的样品处理方法[6]。
要使微波萃取法成为一个分析样品制备的常规方法，还需要做更多的技术研究和应用研究工作。
粮食、蔬菜、水果、茶叶、咖啡豆、中药、化妆品和乳制品是日常生活中的必需品，这些商品的品质和有害物质检验，样品数量多，要求快速测定，这是微波萃取技术最有应用前景的领域。

METHOD 3546MICROWAVE EXTRACTION1.0SCOPE AND APPLICATION1.1Method 3546 is a procedure for extracting water insoluble or slightly water soluble organic compounds from soils, clays, sediments, sludges, and solid wastes. The method was developed and validated on commercially-available solvent extraction systems. The procedure uses microwave energy to produce elevated temperature and pressure conditions (i.e., 100 -115E C and 50 - 175 psi) in a closed vessel containing the sample and organic solvent(s) to achieve analyte recoveries equivalent to those from Soxhlet extraction (Method 3540), using less solvent and taking significantly less time than the Soxhlet procedure. Other systems and other types of vessels may be used, provided that the analyst can demonstrate appropriate performance for a specific application.1.2This method is applicable to the extraction of semivolatile organic compounds, organophosphorus pesticides, organochlorine pesticides, chlorinated herbicides, phenoxyacid herbicides, substituted phenols, PCBs, and PCDDs/PCDFs, which may then be analyzed by a variety of chromatographic procedures. The method may also be applicable for the extraction of additional target analytes, provided that the analyst demonstrates adequate performance for the intended application (see Method 3500 and Chapter Two).1.3This method has been validated for solid matrices containing 50 to 10,000 µg/kg of semivolatile organic compounds, 250 to 2,500 µg/kg of organophosphorus pesticides, 10 to 5,000 µg/kg of organochlorine pesticides and chlorinated herbicides, 50 to 2,500 µg/kg of substituted phenols, 100 to 5,000 µg/kg of phenoxyacid herbicides, 1 to 5,000 µg/kg of PCBs, and 10 to 6000 ng/kg of PCDDs/PCDFs. The method may be applicable to samples containing these analytes at higher concentrations and may be employed after adequate performance has been demonstrated for the concentrations of interest (see Method 3500).1.4This method only is applicable to solid samples with small particle sizes. If practical, soil/sediment samples may be air-dried and ground to a fine powder prior to extraction. Alternatively, if worker safety or the loss of analytes during drying is a concern,soil/sediment samples may be mixed with anhydrous sodium sulfate or pelletized diatomaceous earth. The total mass of material to be prepared depends on the specifications of the determinative method and the sensitivity required for the analysis, but 2 - 20 g of material are usually necessary and can be accommodated by this extraction procedure.1.5This method has been validated using a solvent mixture of hexane and acetone (1:1) from matrices such as soil, glass-fibers and sand. Other solvent systems may be employed, provided that adequate performance can be demonstrated for the analytes of interest (see. Sec. 7.4).1.6Prior to employing this method, analysts are advised to consult the base method for each type of procedure that may be employed in the overall analysis (e.g., Methods 3500, 3600, 5000, and 8000) for additional information on quality control procedures, development of3546-1Draft Revision 0September 1999 Pre-release version - This method has NOT been released by OSW as part of Update IVQC acceptance criteria, calculations, and general guidance. Analysts also should consult the disclaimer statement at the front of the manual and the information in Chapter Two, Sec. 2.1, for guidance on the intended flexibility in the choice of methods, apparatus, materials, reagents, and supplies, and on the responsibilities of the analyst for demonstrating that the techniques employed are appropriate for the analytes of interest, in the matrix of interest, and at the levels of concern.In addition, analysts and data users are advised that, except where explicitly specified in a regulation, the use of SW-846 methods is not mandatory in response to Federal testing requirements. The information contained in this method is provided by EPA as guidance to be used by the analyst and the regulated community in making judgments necessary to generate results that meet the data quality objectives for the intended application.1.7This method is restricted to use by or under the supervision of trained analysts. Each analyst must demonstrate the ability to generate acceptable results with this method.2.0SUMMARY OF METHOD2.1Samples are prepared for extraction by grinding to a powder and loaded into the extraction vessel.2.2The appropriate solvent system is added to the vessel and sealed.2.3The extraction vessel containing the sample and solvent system is heated to the extraction temperature (see Sec. 11.9) and extracted for 10 minutes (or as recommended by the instrument manufacturer).2.4The mixture is allowed to cool. The vessel is opened and the contents are filtered. The solid material is rinsed and the various solvent fractions are combined.2.5The extract may be concentrated, if necessary, and, as needed, exchanged into a solvent compatible with the cleanup or determinative procedure being employed.3.0DEFINITIONSSee Sec. 5.0 of Chapter 1 and the manufacturer’s instructions for definitions associated with this analytical procedure.4.0INTERFERENCES4.1Refer to Method 3500.4.2If necessary, Florisil and/or sulfur cleanup procedures may be employed. In such cases, proceed with Method 3620 and/or Method 3660.3546-2Draft Revision 0September 1999 Pre-release version - This method has NOT been released by OSW as part of Update IV5.0SAFETYThe use of solvents combined with the operational parameters associated with this method will give rise to relatively elevated temperature and pressure conditions in the extraction vessels that can present potential safety concerns in the laboratory. Common sense laboratory practices can be employed to minimize these concerns. However, the following sections describe additional steps that should be taken.5.1The extraction vessels are at elevated temperatures and pressure after the extraction stage. Allow the vessels to cool before opening (the use of a water bath is recommended for this purpose) and always monitor the temperature and pressure by re-connecting the control vessel to the apparatus prior to opening the vessels5.2During the heating step, some solvent vapors may escape through the vessel liner/seal cover. Follow the manufacturer's directions regarding the vessel assembly and instrument setup to prevent release of solvent vapors to the laboratory atmosphere.5.3The instrument may contain flammable vapor sensors and should be operated with all covers in place and doors closed to ensure proper operation of the sensors. If so equipped, follow the manufacturer's directions regarding replacement of extraction vessel seals when frequent vapor leaks are detected.6.0EQUIPMENT AND SUPPLIESThe mention of trade names or commercial products in this manual is for illustrative purposes only, and does not constitute an endorsement or exclusive recommendation for use by EPA. The products and instrument settings cited in SW-846 methods represent those products and settings used during method development or subsequently evaluated by the Agency. Glassware, reagents, supplies, equipment, and settings other than those listed in this manual may be employed provided that method performance appropriate for the intended RCRA application has been documented as described in Sec. 2.1 of Chapter Two.6.1Microwave solvent extraction apparatus6.1.1The temperature performance requirements necessitate that themicrowave extraction system be capable of sensing the temperature to within ± 2.5E C and automatically adjusting the microwave field output power within 2 seconds ofsensing. Temperature sensors should be accurate to ± 2E C. Temperature feedbackcontrol provides the primary performance mechanism for the method.6.1.2Microwave extraction vessels are needed. Vessels are available thatcan accommodate 1-g to 20-g samples. Vessels should be transparent to microwaveenergy, relatively inert to reagents and sample components, and capable of withstanding the temperature and pressure requirements (minimum conditions of 200E C and 200 psi) necessary to perform this procedure. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions regarding cleaning, handling, and sealing the vessels.3546-3Draft Revision 0September 1999 Pre-release version - This method has NOT been released by OSW as part of Update IV3546-4Draft Revision 0September 1999Pre-release version - This method has NOT been released by OSW as part of Update IV 6.2Apparatus for determining percent dry weight6.2.1Drying oven 6.2.2Desiccator 6.2.3Crucibles - porcelain or disposable aluminum6.3Apparatus for grinding - capable of reducing particle size to < 1 mm.6.4Analytical balance - capable to weighing to 0.01 g.6.5Apparatus for separating sample from solvent extract6.5.1Glass funnels 6.5.2Filter paper 6.5.3Pasteur pipettes6.6Vials for collection of extracts - 40-mL or 60-mL, or other appropriate volume, pre-cleaned, open top screw-cap with PTFE-lined silicone septum..7.0REAGENTS AND STANDARDS7.1Reagent grade chemicals shall be used in all tests. Unless otherwise indicated, it is intended that all reagents shall conform to the specifications of the Committee on Analytical Reagents of the American Chemical Society, where such specifications are available. Other grades may be used, provided it is first ascertained that the reagent is of sufficiently high purity to permit its use without lessening the accuracy of the determination.7.2Organic-free reagent water. All references to water in this method refer toorganic-free reagent water as defined in Chapter One.7.3Drying agents7.3.1Sodium sulfate (granular anhydrous), Na 2SO 4.7.3.2Pelletized diatomaceous earth.7.3.3The drying agents should be purified by heating at 400E C for 4 hours ina shallow tray, or by extraction with methylene chloride. If extraction with methylene chloride is employed, then a reagent blank should be prepared to demonstrate that the drying agent is free of interferences.7.4Extraction solventsThis method has been validated using a 1:1 mixture of hexane and acetone from matrices such as soil, glass-fibers, and sand. Other solvent systems may have applicability in microwave extraction, provided that at least one component absorbs microwave energy.The choice of extraction solvent will depend on the analytes of interest and no single solvent is universally applicable to all analyte groups. Whatever solvent system is employed, including those specifically listed in this method, the analyst must demonstrate adequate performance for the analytes of interest, at the levels of interest. At a minimum, such a demonstration will encompass the initial demonstration of proficiency described in Sec. 8.2 of Method 3500, using a clean reference matrix. Method 8000 describes procedures that may be used to develop performance criteria for such demonstrations as well as for matrix spike and laboratory control sample results.Hexane is a water-immiscible solvent and acetone is a water-miscible solvent. The purpose of the water-miscible solvent is to facilitate the extraction of wet solids by allowing the mixed solvent to penetrate the layer of water of the surface of the solid particles. The water-immiscible solvent extracts organics compounds with similar polarities. The polarity of acetone may also help extract polar analytes in mixed solvent systems.All solvents should be pesticide quality or equivalent. Solvents may be degassed prior to use.8.0SAMPLE COLLECTION, PRESERVATION, AND HANDLING8.1See the introductory material to this Chapter, Organic Analytes, Section 4.1.8.2Solid samples to be extracted by this procedure should be collected and stored as any other solid samples containing semivolatile organics.9.0QUALITY CONTROL9.1Refer to Chapter One and Method 8000 for specific Quality Control procedures and to Method 3500 for sample preparation quality control procedures.9.2Before processing any samples, the analyst should demonstrate that all parts of the equipment in contact with the sample and reagents are interference-free. This is accomplished through the analysis of a solid matrix method blank (e.g., clean sand). Each time samples are extracted, and when there is a change in reagents, a method blank should be prepared and analyzed for the compounds of interest as a safeguard against chronic laboratory contamination. Any method blanks, matrix spike samples, or replicate samples should be subjected to the same analytical procedures (see Sec. 11.0) as those used on actual samples.9.3All instrument operating conditions should be recorded.3546-5Draft Revision 0September 1999 Pre-release version - This method has NOT been released by OSW as part of Update IV9.4Surrogate standards should be added to samples when listed in the appropriate determinative method.10.0CALIBRATION AND STANDARDIZATIONThere are no calibration or standardization steps associated with this sample extraction procedure other than establishing the extraction conditions in Section 11.9.11.0PROCEDURE11.1Sample preparationThe sample preparation steps vary with the type of sample to be extracted, as described below. Where practical, samples should be air-dried and ground to a fine powder before extraction. However, where such steps are not practical because of concerns about loss of the more volatile analytes or potential contamination of the laboratory from high concentration samples, samples may be mixed with a drying agent such as sodium sulfate or pelletized diatomaceous earth prior to extraction.11.1.1Sediment/soil samplesDecant and discard any water layer on a sediment sample. Mix the sample thoroughly, especially composited samples. Discard any foreign objects such as sticks, leaves, and rocks. Air dry the sample at room temperature for 48 hours in a glass tray or on hexane-rinsed aluminum foil. Alternatively, mix the sample with an equal volume of anhydrous sodium sulfate or pelletized diatomaceous earth until a free-flowing powder is obtained.NOTE:Dry, finely-ground soil/sediment allows the best extraction efficiency fornonvolatile, nonpolar organics, e.g., 4,4'-DDT, PCBs, etc. Air-drying may not beappropriate for the analysis of the more volatile organochlorine pesticides (e.g.,the BHCs) or the more volatile of the semivolatile organics because of lossesduring the drying process. Worker safety may be an issue with the drying ofsoils containing PCDDs/PCDFs as well.NOTE:Drying should always be performed in a hood, to avoid contamination of the laboratory.11.1.2Waste samplesMultiphase waste samples must be prepared by the phase separation method in Chapter Two before extraction. This extraction procedure is for solids only.11.1.3Dry sediment/soil and dry waste samples amenable to grinding3546-6Draft Revision 0September 1999 Pre-release version - This method has NOT been released by OSW as part of Update IV3546-7Draft Revision 0September 1999Pre-release version - This method has NOT been released by OSW as part of Update IV %dry weight 'g of dry sample g of samplex 100Grind or otherwise reduce the particle size of the waste so that it either passesthrough a 1-mm sieve or can be extruded through a 1-mm hole. Disassemble grinder between samples, according to manufacturer's instructions, and decontaminate with soap and water, followed by acetone and hexane rinses. The notes in Sec. 11.1.1 also apply to the grinding process.11.1.4Gummy, fibrous, or oily materials not amenable to grindingCut, shred, or otherwise reduce in size these samples to allow mixing andmaximum exposure of the sample surfaces for the extraction. The analyst may addanhydrous sodium sulfate, pelletized diatomaceous earth, sand, or other clean, dryreagents to the sample to make it more amenable to grinding.11.2Determination of percent dry weightWhen sample results are to be calculated on a dry weight basis, a second portion of sample should be weighed at the same time as the portion used for analytical determination.WARNING:The drying oven should be contained in a hood or vented. Significant laboratorycontamination may result from drying a heavily contaminated sample.11.2.1Immediately after weighing the sample for extraction, weigh 5-10 g of thesample into a tared crucible. Dry this aliquot overnight at 105E C. Allow to cool in adesiccator before weighing.11.2.2Calculate the % dry weight as follows:11.3Grind a sufficient weight of the dried sample from Sec. 11.1 to yield the sample weight needed for the determinative method (usually 10 - 30 g). Grind the sample until it passes through a 10-mesh sieve.11.4Transfer the ground sample to an extraction vessel. The weight of a specificsample that a vessel will contain depends on the bulk density of the sample and the amount of drying agent (if any) that was added to the sample in order to make it suitable for extraction. Analysts should ensure that the sample aliquot extracted is large enough to provide the necessary sensitivity.11.5Prepare a method blank using an aliquot of a clean solid matrix such as quartz sand of the approximate weight of the samples. If a drying agent is added to the field samples being extracted, it must also be added to the method blank, in order to assess the possible contribution of the drying agent to the blank results.11.6Add the surrogates listed in the determinative method to each sample and method blank. Add the surrogates and the matrix spike compounds appropriate for the project to the two additional aliquots of the sample selected for spiking. If a drying agent is added to thefield samples being extracted, it must also be added to the matrix spike aliquots, in order to assess the effect of the drying agent.11.7Add approximately 25 mL of the appropriate solvent system to the vessel and seal the vessel as instructed by the manufacturer.11.8Place the extraction vessel into the instrument and proceed with apparatus setup as instructed by the instrument manufacturer. If recommended by the manufacturer, include additional vessels containing water or other materials to the apparatus in order to ensure that all samples are exposed to a consistent amount of microwave energy across extraction batches.11.9Recommended extraction conditionsTemperature:100-115E CPressure:50-150 psiTime at Temperature:10 - 20 minCooling:To room temperatureFiltering/Rinsing:With same solvent system11.9.1Optimize the conditions, as needed, according to the manufacturer'sinstructions. In general, the pressure is not a critical parameter, since it is a result of the solvent system vapor pressure at the elevated temperature.11.9.2Once established, the same procedure should be used for all samplesextracted for the same type of analysis.11.10Begin the extraction according to the instructions provided by the manufacturer.11.11Allow the extracts to cool to room temperature once the extractions are complete. After cooling, open the vessels and proceed with filtering and rinsing, combining all the filtrates.11.12The extract is now ready for concentration, cleanup, or analysis, depending on the extent of interferants and the determinative method to be employed. Refer to Method 3600 for guidance on selecting appropriate cleanup methods. Excess water present in extracts may be removed by filtering the extract through a bed of anhydrous sodium sulfate. Certain cleanup and/or determinative methods may require a solvent exchange prior to cleanup and/or analysis.12.0DATA ANALYSIS AND CALCULATIONSThere are no calculations explicitly associated with this extraction procedure.

美国EPA3546新方法---微波快速溶剂萃取技术刘伟张明祥杨海鹏（美国CEM公司，北京，100013）摘要：由加拿大环保局和美国CEM共同开发的MARSX快速微波溶剂萃取技术，是世界上唯一专利的微波萃取技术，也是唯一符合美国EPA3546方法的仪器。
MARSX获98年度全美R&D100大奖，低功率先行非脉冲微波磁控管技术实现连续高精确过程控制反应，MARSX利用闭环反馈控制技术，通过高精度高频率的温压控制系统精确调节微波能量输出激发极性试剂，并且内置CARBOFLON加热和极化非极性试剂，实现了快速完全的样品萃取制备，大大提高了现代气/液相色谱测定精度和效率。
其主要特点是: 快速, 安全，批量大，样品量大，节省溶剂，污染小。
前言样品预处理是样品分析过程中最关键、最耗时的环节。
在现代化实验室高度重视速度和效率的今天，探索快速、高效、简便、自动化的样品预处理新方法已成为当代分析化学的前沿课题和重要研究方向之一。
萃取是分离和提纯物质的一种常用方法，为GC、HPLC等有机分析方法提供样品前处理。
传统的萃取方法由于费时、费试剂、效率低、重现性差等缺点,已不能满足分析发展的需要,于是先后出现了微波辅助萃取（MAE）、超临界流体萃取(SFE)和加速溶剂萃取（ASE）等萃取方法。
但由于技术、成本和效率等问题，一些萃取方法在使用中受到了限制，而微波萃取则克服了以上的缺点, 表现出了巨大的应用潜力和良好的发展前景。
自从1986年匈牙利学者Ganzler提出了微波萃取法并从土壤、种子、食品、饲料中萃取分离化合物以来[1]，微波萃取技术以高效、低耗、无污染，成为近年来萃取技术的佼佼者,被誉为“绿色”萃取技术。
微波是指频率为300到300 000MHz的电磁波，介于红外线和无线电波之间。
民用微波频率一般采用2450MHz，所对应能量大约为0.96J/mol，微波的量子能级属于范德华力（分子间作用力）的范畴，与化合物键能相差甚远[2]。
USEPA通过对17种稠环芳香碳氢化合物、14种苯酚类化合物、8种碱性/中性化合物以及20种有机农药的研究认证了微波萃取法不会破坏任何被测分析物的分子结构。
微波在传输过程中依介质性质不同，会产生反射、吸收和穿透现象，这取决于材料本身的几个主要特性参数：介电常数、偶极矩、介电损耗因子和损耗tanδ等[3]。
在微波萃取中，被处理的物质通常是能够不同程度吸收微波能量的介质, 整个加热过程是利用离子传导和偶极子转动的机理，具有反应灵敏、升温速度快、效率高等优点。
微波萃取的机理可从两方面考虑：一方面是微波射线自由透过透明的萃取介质，深入到生物材料的内部维管束和腺胞系统。
由于吸收微波能，物料内部温度突然升高，在天然物料中的维管束和腺胞系统升温更快，保持此温度直至其内部压力超过细胞壁膨胀的能力，细胞破裂。
位于细胞内的有效成分从细胞壁自由流出，传递到萃取溶剂里。
另一方面，由于不同物质的tanδ值不同，对微波能的吸收程度也不同，微波可以对体系中不同组分进行选择性加热，从而使被萃取物质从基体或体系中分离出来, 进入到萃取溶剂中。
1．MARSX微波快速溶剂萃取和微波消解的技术差异微波消解技术是在酸条件下利用微波辐射能量作用于分子上，使之离子化，目的是破坏分子键。
而微波萃取则是利用微波辐射能量在溶剂的辅助下使分子从样品基体上分开，在剥离过程中不能破坏分子结构和分子键。
因此两者对微波能量发射要求是不同的，萃取时微波能量发射要尽可能微量低调，温度控制要十分准确。
微波萃取仪器根据萃取状态的不同一般分为密闭高压微波萃取和常压回流微波萃取两大类。
密闭微波萃取技术是由密闭容器中酸消解样品和液固萃取有机物两种技术组合演变而来的，与微波消解相比，其研究和应用还处于初始阶段[4]。
传统的微波发射方式，其边界条件不可测量不可定量，更有脉冲微波会产生瞬间高阈值电磁脉冲能量而可能破坏所萃取的有机分子形态的担心，所以实验重复性往往难以令人满意。
直到1998年，CEM公司开发出了新型ACCUPOWER连续低功率先行专利技术，并应用到微波萃取研究中，使得微波萃取实验达到更好的重复性和平行性。
MARSX的微波能量输出可控制性大大提高，消除了微波脉冲潜在的破坏性，从而可以完整保持待测萃取物分子形态。
低能量微波依然可促使分子产生高速偶极旋转，辅以高温和高压迅速克服基质与被分析物间的分子作用力，使被分析物从基质中解析出来并快速进入萃取溶剂。
由于被分析物瞬间溶出，避免了长时间高温导致的样品分解，有利于萃取热不稳定性物质，保持待测萃取物分子形态，特别适合于处理热敏性组分或从天然物质中提取有效成分。
2．微波快速溶剂萃取技术优势与其他萃取技术如索氏提取、自动索氏抽提、超声萃取、ASE、SFE和传统分液漏斗振摇等方法相比，微波快速溶剂萃取效率高，回收率高，安全性好，使用方便。
表1为10克样品利用微波快速溶剂萃取与其他的萃取方法的比较，从表中可以看出MAE和ASE在溶剂使用量上和萃取时间上都有很大的优势，但是MAE具备了ASE所没有的大批量、大样品量处理的能力，回收率上也可看出微波辅助萃取技术要优于其他技术。
因此微波萃取技术被美国环保局认定为标准方法EPA3546，应用于挥发性有机物和半挥发性有机物的萃取，与ASE快速溶剂萃取技术EPA3545标准方法并行采用。
同时微波萃取技术也符合ASTM D5765和ASTM D6010，分别用于密闭式微波萃取土壤及沉积物中的总石油碳氢化合物和密闭式微波萃取固体材料中的有机物。
微波快速溶剂萃取技术主要有以下优点：1）2）3）4）溶剂用量少。
10g样品仅需10～30mL溶剂，试剂量只为常规萃取的1/15左右。
微波萃取法回收率和重复性普遍优于其他萃取方法[5][6]。
微波萃取仪萃取容器每罐可达50-100mL容积，加入样品量可达10～50g，每批样品处理只需要5～20分钟即可达到非常好的萃取效果。
微波萃取法不受含水量的影响。
EPA用MARSX对不同含水量的土壤中农药的回收率进行了分析（见图1），认为微波萃取前可以无需样品干燥，这大大提高了分析的工作效率。
微波萃取免除了萃取前的样品干燥处理，因此样品含水量比其他的萃取技术对基体影响更小。
表1 萃取10克样品微波快速溶剂萃取与其他的萃取技术比较技术方法溶剂使用量萃取时间温压每次批处理量回收率索氏提取200～500mL 240min-48h沸点常压1个样中自动索氏提取50～100 mL 60-240 min沸点常压1个样中超声萃取150～200 mL 30-60 min 沸点常压1个样低ASE溶剂萃取 15～30 mL 12-30min 高温高压1个样较高MAE萃取 10～35 mL 5-20min 高温高压 14-40个样高图1 不同含水量对土壤中农药残留的回收率影响3．MARSX 萃取系统的技术特点EPA3546标准方法以MARSX 微波萃取仪为基础，并经过加州EPA 对MARSX 的评估，批准MARSX 作为唯一标准萃取仪器[7]。
密闭微波萃取仪由于其反应过程中可能产生高压，所以在仪器微波腔体和反应罐设计上必须有特殊考虑。
MARSX 是CEM 公司新一代的密闭高压微波萃取仪，拥有许多先进技术和专利，更由于其低功率先行技术获得了98年度全美R&D100大奖。
1）2）3） CEM 专利的ACCUPOWER 技术。
ACCUPOWER 无须功率设定，反应过程中功率可以随反应自动调整输出。
MARSX 低功率优先连续微波输出，根据密闭罐中反应条件的变化实时精确控制和调整微波发射功率，保持了待测萃取物分子形态的完整性，相比其他简单的设定固定功率输出的脉冲微波技术产品有根本性的技术进步。
CARBOFLON 强极性激活技术。
通过内置极化CARBOFLON 加热和极化非极性试剂，使非极性试剂也能在微波场下迅速加热，从而使微波快速溶剂萃取技术可广泛适用于包括极性和非极性的各种试剂。
图2为在微波作用下非极性正己烷溶剂在加入Carboflon 后，其升温效果达到了极性丙酮溶剂的效果，扩大了微波萃取中非极性溶剂的使用范围。
RTP 光纤温度传感系统。
由于热电偶传感器在微波电磁场中会产生打火花现象，极易引起有机试剂爆炸，且由于其检测精度和响应时间慢等原因，一般不用于精确过程控制。
RTP 温度控制系统采用高频率和高精确的光纤温度传感器，采用高纯度熔融二氧化硅直接制成，无电磁干扰，避免了微波腔内的爆炸危险性。
高频光纤RTP 传感器，可随时观察到反应罐内的温度数值并反馈给ACCUPOWER 系统，精确监控萃取变化过程。
图2 加入Carboflon升温效果对比4）5）6）7）8）1）底部IR全罐测温系统。
CEM独有的底部IR技术可同时监测所有反应罐中的温度，并随时与RTP进行相互温度标定，保证系统的精度和可靠性。
大批量和大样品量的处理能力。
MARSX微波快速溶剂萃取批处理达到14-40个样，进行固体半固体萃取的效率远远高于任何其他的萃取技术。
高速磁搅拌系统。
由于电磁搅拌的作用，增进了萃取容器中气、液、固之间的充分接触，减少试剂使用以及污染，大大缩短萃取时间，提高萃取回收率。
高灵敏度有机试剂检测系统。
微波萃取一般在高压密闭容器中进行，如果实验条件控制不好，造成萃取试剂泄漏后在微波场中很容易造成危险。
CEM设计了一套高灵敏有机试剂检测系统，一旦检测值达到丙酮混爆值下限的20%时即发出警告并自动停止微波发射，避免了潜在危险。
MARSX反应容器密闭保证萃取过程中不泄漏挥发性物质和有机溶剂，宇航纤维复合材料的耐压外套和垂直定向防爆设计保证安全性。
4．微波快速萃取在农业和食品的应用微波快速溶剂萃取技术已经广泛应用于农产品、食品、环境土壤监测、烟草、化妆品、造纸、中医药材、石化等等领域。
例如监测土壤、淤泥等中有毒有害物质的污染情况[8][9]、萃取PVC中增塑剂等[10]。
农业领域微波快速溶剂萃取种子中的油；萃取谷物、蔬菜、水果、茶叶、鱼肉和其他动物组织中农药残留如：有机氯、有机磷杀虫剂、除草剂、多氯联苯、多环芳烃和二噁英等；萃取动物饲料中的农残；萃取动物肝脏和组织中兽药代谢及残留。
CEM在2000年度Pittsburgh会议上报告了从鱼肉组织中萃取4,4-DDT，2,4-DDT，4,4-DDD，4,4-DDE，Nonachlor，a-Chlordane 农药残留[11]，图3所示的实验回收率表明MAE法的回收率可与传统soxhlet法相媲美，而且大部分分析结果均优于soxhlet法。
图3微波法与索氏法萃取鱼肉组织中农药含量对比图（ng/g）罗建波等人利用微波萃取和气相色谱法测定果蔬中农药残留，研究结果表明微波萃取法试剂消耗小，样品量小，回收率高，指出MAE对有机物的萃取具有广阔的应用前景[12]。
