description Neurotransmitters (NTs) are essential for intercellular communication and primarily include monoamine, amino acid, and cholinergic NTs. These molecules play important roles in the body’s stress response, motor coordination, neuronal communication, and homeostatic functions. Previous studies have shown that abnormal changes in NT levels are associated with various neurological disorders. Therefore, the development of accurate analytical methods for NT detection will enhance the current understanding on complex neuropathophysiology by providing functional knowledge and techniques for early diagnosis, thereby facilitating the development of new therapeutic options for the related diseases. The solid phase microextraction (SPME) technique combines sample preparation, separation, and enrichment in a single step and is minimally invasive, low cost, solvent free, and high throughput. SPME has been successfully applied to the in vivo analysis of target analytes in animal, human, and plant tissues. The coating material plays a significant role in the development of in vivo SPME methods and must meet various analytical requirements, including a suitable geometry for the SPME device, high extraction capacity, excellent selectivity, and wide extraction coverage for the target analytes. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are porous crystalline polymers constructed from organic framework units through strong covalent bonds; these materials are characterized with a low density, large specific surface area, permanent porosity, excellent chemical/thermal stability, and easy functionalization.In this study, a sulfonic acid-functionalized COF material (COF-SO(3)H) with good crystallinity, excellent chemical/thermal stability, strong hydrophobicity, a uniform mesoporous structure, and narrow pore size distribution was prepared using 2,4,6-triformylphloroglucinol and 1,4-diamino-2-nitrobenzene as monomers. Then, the COF-SO(3)H was coated onto the surface of stainless-steel fibers and used for in vivo enrichment of NTs. The structural properties of COF-SO(3)H were characterized using various techniques, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and X-ray diffraction (XRD), all of which showed that COF-SO(3)H had a good crystalline structure and uniform mesopore distribution with a specific surface area of 46.17 m(2)/g. Compared with the SPME fibers of HLB, C18, MCX, amino, and PXC columns, the prepared COF-SO(3)H fibers showed better extraction efficiency for the target NTs. Next, the factors affecting SPME efficiency were optimized. The optimal desorption solvent was formic acid-methanol-water (0.5∶49.5∶50, v/v/v), and the optimal extraction and desorption times were 15 min. A method for the in vivo analysis of NTs in the brains of mice was established by combining the COF-SO(3)H fibers with ultra performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) under optimal conditions. The NTs were separated on an Acquity UPLC BEH-C18 analytical column (100 mm×2.1 mm, 1.7 μm) with 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution (A) and acetonitrile (B) as the mobile phases. The flow rate was set to 0.2 mL/min, and the gradient elution procedure was as follows: 0-4 min, 5%B-6%B; 4-7 min, 6%B-5%B; 7-11 min, 5%B. Under optimal conditions, the method showed good linearity (r(2)>0.99). The limits of quantification (S/N≥5) were in the range of 0.003-0.005 μg/mL and 3-5 μg/mL for monoamine and amino acid NTs, respectively, with RSDs of less than 20%. The method showed good precision (0.80%-9.70%) and accuracy (2.08%-17.72%), with absolute matrix effects in the range of 82.22%-117.92%. These values reflect the good purification and enrichment abilities of the proposed fibers for the target analytes. Finally, the established SPME method was combined with UPLC-MS/MS and successfully applied to quantify target NTs in the brains of mice. The proposed strategy provides a practical method for the in vivo detection and quantitative analysis of NTs and expands the applications of functionalized COF materials for the analysis of various targets.
