A　micro-solid-phase　extraction　(mu-SPE)　device　was　developed　by　filling　copper(II)　isonicotinate　coordination　polymer　(Cu(4-C5H4N-COO)(2)(H2O)(4))　into　a　porous　polypropylene　envelope,　and　the　mu-SPE,　coupling　with　gas　chromatography　(GC)　with　a　micro-cell　electron　capture　detector　(mu-ECD),　was　used　for　extraction　and　determination　of　PBDEs　in　soils.　Variables　affecting　extraction　procedures,　including　temperature,　water　volume,　extraction　time,　and　desorption　time,　were　investigated　in　a　spiked　soil,　and　the　parameters　were　optimized.　Under　the　optimal　experimental　conditions,　the　method　detection　limits　for　seven　PBDEs　(BDE-28,　47,　99,　100,　153,　154,　and　183)　were　in　the　range　of　0.026-0.066　ng　g(-1),　and　the　reproducibility　was　satisfactory　with　the　relative　standard　deviation　in　range　of　1.3-10.1%.　Good　linear　relationship　between　PBDEs　concentrations　and　GC　signals　(defined　as　peak　area)　was　obtained　in　the　range　between　0.1　and　200　ng　g(-1).　The　recovery　of　the　seven　PBDEs　by　mu-SPE　varied　from　70　to　90%,　which　was　comparable　to　that　determined　by　accelerated　solvent　extraction　method.　Finally,　the　proposed　method　was　used　to　determine　PBDEs　in　several　field-contaminated　soils,　and　it　was　suggested　that　the　mu-SPE　is　a　promising　alternative　microextraction　technique　for　the　detection　of　PBDEs　in　soils.　(C)　2012　Elsevier　B.V.　All　rights　reserved.
