Conclusion remarks The identification of the fluorescence features from single scan fluorescence data of urine samples is difficult due to the similarities in the spectral properties of the component fluorophores and large spectral widths; however, the spreading of the spectral features in two-dimensional excitation/emission matrices (EEMs) makes the task easier. Wide additional information can be also obtained from the synchronous fluorescence spectra, which are useful in detecting spectral features hidden in the conventional spectra. Our analysis of all presented spectral data showed that the 520 nm fluorescence peak (excitation at 370 nm and 450 nm) offers a possible distinguishing mark between urine specimens obtained from healthy and cancer samples. This method is simple, rapid and cheep and can be expected to be developed as a preliminary test for cancer diagnosis.

Introduction The presented work deals with a facilitation of an optimization process of general liquid-liquid microextraction technique (LLME). For that purposes, a comparison of two commercial software packages (NCSS and Design Expert) in their default settings was used and compared to demonstrate their ability to provide experimental designs (plans), to analyze and evaluate the experimental results (responses) by a set of mathematical and statistical methods generally called response surface methodology (RSM) [1]. Response surface methodology is based on the fit of a polynomial equation to the experimental data, which must describe the behavior of a data set with the objective of making statistical prevision [2]. RSM is a general approach for design of experiments which effectively reduce the method development time and costs. The main advantage of the RSM compared to a widely used one-factor-at-a-time approach (OFAT, one parameter is changed while the others are fixed during optimization) is that only the most important experimental parameters are selected and optimized, and that more than one parameter is changed simultaneously in one experiment according to the software proposed plan of experiments. Generally, RSM consists of several consecutive steps: screening, modeling and optimization [3]. Before using the RSM, it is important to define the analytical goals and select the appropriate parameters and responses [2]. As an example, we selected a procedure of the microextraction of 10 ml of aqueous solution of 8 analytes (toluene, ethylbenzene, mesitylene, phenol, nitrobenzene, n-octanol, naphthalene and dimethylphthalate, all 1 g l -1 ) by several hundreds l of heptane (internal standard in heptane was methylhexanedecanoate) in 15 ml glass vial. The organic phase was analyzed by fast-GC method with FID and the analyte peak areas determined. The selected experimental parameters of interest were the extraction time, the volume of extraction solvent, the addition of salt, the stirring rate and the diameter of extraction vial. The extraction was performed at ambient temperature. As the analytical response, either the peak areas of single analytes or the sum of peak areas of all analytes measured are used. Response surface methodology Screening Reduced factorial designs are commonly recommended for the screening to limit the large number of experimental parameters to be optimized. Generally, Plackett-Burman design is applied for screening of independent experimental parameters in order to determine the parameters that significantly affect the extraction efficiency. The Plackett-Burman design assumes that the interactions among the selected parameters can be completely ignored so, their main influence on the analytical response is evaluated with a considerably reduced number of experiments [4]. Modeling In this step, experiments are designed with the purpose of modeling the measured responses as a function of significant parameters, usually by a second-order polynomial fit [3]. One of several possible designs of experiments is a central composite design (CCD) which involves two–level full factorial, fractional factorial and star design [1, 4].

The presented work deals with a facilitation <strong>of</strong> an optimization process <strong>of</strong> general liquid-liquid microextraction<br />
