Amino functional dicationic ionic liquid (AFDCIL) was prepared and then coated on the surface of magnetic graphene oxide (GO) as a new magnetic adsorbent (Fe@GO@AFDCIL) for the magnetic solidphase extraction (MSPE) of protein. The Fe@GO@AFDCIL composite was characterized by vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR), thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and zeta-potential nanoparticles. The bovine hemoglobin (BHb) was used as the analyte, and the extraction performance of Fe@GO@AFDCIL was investigated in the MSPE procedure. The concentration of BHb in samples was determined by a UV–vis spectrophotometer. A comparative investigation of Fe@GO@AFDCIL composite and traditional IL-coated Fe@GO composites (Fe@GO@IL) exhibited the benefits of Fe@- GO@AFDCIL. The adsorbed BHb could be eluted from the Fe@GO@AFDCIL by 4% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) solution. The Fe@GO@AFDCIL exhibited favorable stability which could be reused at least 15 times. Under the optimized condition, the real samples were investigated, which demonstrated that the Fe@- GO@AFDCIL was able to be applied in extracting bovine hemoglobin (BHb) from real biological samples.Amino functional dicationic ionic liquid (AFDCIL) was prepared and then coated on the surface of magnetic graphene oxide (GO) as a new magnetic adsorbent (Fe@GO@AFDCIL) for the magnetic solidphase extraction (MSPE) of protein.
