The separation on microchip provides the advantages including high efficiency, increased throughput, reduced quantities of hazardous materials, cost saving, relatively facile instrumentation, improved portability, etc. A technique of micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) coupled with amperometric detection has been actualized on a polydimethylsiloxane microchip for the rapid separation and determination of three phenolic xenoestrogens as octylphenol (OP), 4-nonylphenol (4-NP), and bisphenol A (BPA). The baseline separation of these phenolic xenoestrogens is successfully obtained within 55 s under the optimized MEKC conditions with borate running buffer of pH 8.0 containing sodium dodecyl sulfate and β-cyclodextrin. The linear range for OP, 4-NP, and BPA are 20–1,000, 15–1,000, and 20–1,000 μg/L with the detection limit of 5.0, 4.0, and 3.0 μg/L, respectively. The present method is successfully applied for the determination of these phenolic xenoestrogens in some industrial wastewater samples from mainland of China with the recoveries ranged from 90.2 to 109.4 %.
