This study is centered around establishing an efficient, simple and reliable surfactant assisted dispersive micro solid-phase extraction method followed by the accurate trace determination of HA and MHA as biomarkers for exposure to toluene and xylene. To achieve the above goal, Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@sodium dodecyl sulfate was employed for the extraction of two compounds from various environmental water and urine samples. Due to its superb dispersibility and appropriate structure after modification by SDS, the Fe₃O₄@SiO₂@SDS sorbent exhibited a great deal of improvement in the extraction efficiency. Once the extraction of analytes had been achieved, they were desorbed from the sorbent using an appropriate solvent followed by high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (HPLC-UV). Under the optimal extraction conditions, the calibration curves for the analytes were linear over the concentration range of 1–1000 μg L⁻¹ for water media and 5–4000 μg L⁻¹ for urine media. The accuracy of the method was tested by relative recovery experiments on fortified real samples with the results falling within the range of 96 to 103.3%. Based on a signal-to-noise ratio of 3 (S/N = 3), the method detection limits were determined to be 0.2 μg L⁻¹ and 0.5 μg L⁻¹ for HA and MHA, respectively.
