This study aimed to present a selective and effective method for analyzing quinolones (QNs) in food matrix. Herein, a NiFe2O4-based magnetic sodium disulfonate covalent organic framework (NiFe2O4/COF) was prepared using a simple solvent-free grinding method, and was adopted as a selective adsorbent for magnetic solid phase extraction of QNs. Coupled with UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS, an efficient method for simultaneous detection of 18 kinds of QNs was established. The method exhibited good linearity (0.01-100 ng g-1), high sensitivity (LODs ranging from 0.0011 to 0.0652 ng g-1) and precision (RSDs below 9.5%). Successful extraction of QNs from liver and kidney samples was achieved with satisfactory recoveries ranging from 82.2% to 108.4%. The abundant sulfonate functional groups on NiFe2O4/COF facilitated strong affinity to QNs through electrostatic and hydrogen bonding interactions. The proposed method provides a new idea for the extraction of contaminants with target selectivity.
