This research topic grew up as a result of awareness of constant anthropogenic and natural input to the environment constituents of personal care products (PCPs) residues. This group of emerging pollutants encompasses a wide range of chemicals, including potentially allergenic fragrance compounds. The aim of the present study was to investigate presence of 26 fragrance allergens in water samples. Simple and rapid methodology based on direct-ultrasonic assisted liquid-liquid microextraction (USALLME) followed by gas chromatography with flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and gas chromatography with mass spectrometry (GC-MS) using Retention Time Locking has been developed. GC-MS analyses were performed with inlet pressure adjusted at 7.29 psi to lock a retention time at 27.500 min for n-pentadecane. GC-FID analyses were performed with inlet pressure adjusted to give a retention time of 70.000 min for n-pentadecane which was set up at 38.032 psi. Finally several real water samples were investigated with the application of the proposed method.
