In this work, trace determination of nitrite in river water samples was studied using solvent stir bar microextraction system with three-hollow fiber configuration (3HF-SSBME) as a preconcentration step prior to UV–Vis spectrophotometry. The obtained results showed that the increase in the number of solvent bars can improve the extraction performance by increasing the contact area between acceptor and sample solutions. The extraction process relies on the well-known oxidation–reduction reaction of nitrite with iodide excess in acidic donor phase to form triiodide, and then its extraction into organic acceptor phase using a cationic surfactant. Various extraction parameters affecting the method were optimized and examined in detail. Detection limit of 1.6 μg L⁻¹ and preconcentration factor of 282 can be attained after an extraction time of 8 min under the optimum conditions of this technique. The proposed method showed a linear response up to 1000 μg L⁻¹ (r² = 0.996) with relative standard deviation values less than 4.0%. The accuracy of the developed method was assessed using the Griess technique. Finally, the proposed method was successfully employed for quantification of nitrite in river water samples (Ghezelozan, Zanjan, Iran).
