A novel mixed hemimicelles dispersive micro-solid phase extraction using ionic liquid functionalized magnetic graphene oxide/polypyrrole for extraction and pre-concentration of methotrexate from urine samples followed by the spectrophotometric method.

Methotrexate (MTX) is an anticancer drug that is widely used in a variety of cancers including primary central nervous system lymphoma. It is also administrated in the treatment of some autoimmune diseases. A simple, accurate, sensitive, and precise mixed hemimicelles dispersive micro-solid phase extraction was proposed for MTX quantification in human urine samples. MTX was quantified by spectrophotometer after dispersive micro-solid phase extraction using ionic liquid functionalized magnetic graphene oxide/polypyrrole. Interactions of adsorbent and MTX were modeled by molecular docking and the interaction energy was predicted to be -8.35 kcal/mol. A larger absolute value of binding energy represents larger adsorption strength, indicating that graphene oxide nanosheets could perform higher adsorption strength toward MTX. The concentrations of MTX were proportional to analytical response in amounts ranging from 10 to 1000 ng/mL with a good correlation (R
