An improved method for the flow-injection determination of iodine using the luminol chemiluminescence reaction in a reversed micellar medium of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride in 1-hexanol-cyclohexane.

To eliminate the use of chlorinated hydrocarbons, we have improved the method for the flow-injection (FI) determination of iodine based on the chemiluminescence reaction of iodine with luminol in a chloroform-free reversed micellar medium of the surfactant cetyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTAC) using a mixture of 1-hexanol-cyclohexane as a bulk solvent. The FI procedure used simply involves the mixing of an iodine solution in cyclohexane with the chemiluminescent reagent solution of luminol in the reversed micellar medium of CTAC in 0.38 M 1-hexanol in cyclohexane/water (buffered with sodium carbonate). The optimum conditions for the iodine determination were evaluated and a detection limit (DL) of 0.05 ng cm(-3) iodine was achieved. The calibration graph obtained was linear with a dynamic range from the DL to 10 ng cm(-3) iodine. The relative standard deviations (n=5) observed at all concentrations within the linear range were less than 2.5%. The improved FI method is rapid and equally sensitive like the original one and was found to be suitable for the determination of trace iodine.

Determination of iodine in biological materials and in some standard reference materials by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry

Summary A new method for the determination of iodine in biological samples is described. If series of samples of uniform matrix are to be analyzed no mineralization is required: water soluble iodide coprecipitated on a carrier and tissue-bound iodine are both collected on a filter and simultaneously determined by X-ray fluorescence thin layer technique. In the particular case of the determination of iodine in rat thyroids this procedure allows a satisfactory screening of drugs influencing the iodine balance. In the general case of trace iodine determination in quite different matrices the organic material is ashed prior to the precipitation and measuring step. The trace iodine content of several reference materials from NBS, BCR and IAEA obtained by this method is given.

Analysis of iodine species in aqueous solutions

Iodine is a biologically important trace element. Its behaviour in the environment and in human metabolism is determined by the type of iodine species which takes part in chemical reactions. Knowledge of their concentrations is necessary to understand and describe the iodine reaction paths. A separation procedure is proposed for quick determination of common forms of iodine-iodide, iodate ions, molecular iodine and organoiodine (in the form of CH(3)I). The procedure consists of sequential sorption by passing the sample solution first through a solid-phase extraction cartridge to separate I(2) and CH(3)I from IO(3)(-) and I(-) then through an anion-exchange resin in a cartridge to retain the latter two species. Each loaded cartridge is eluted to separate the sorbed pair of species. Concentration determination of the resulting four solutions can be performed by standard methods, e.g. by spectrophotometry, tracer counting or with ion-selective electrodes.

Trace element determinations in shale oil products by neutron activation

Neutron activation offers some important advantages for the determination of selected trace elements in shale oil products. This paper gives techniques and results of a study of crude shale oil and naphtha, heavy distillate, and wax products of shale oil. The elements determined were Al, As, Au, Br, Ce, Cl, Co, Cr, Fe, Hg, I, K, Mn. Mo, Na, S, Sb, Se, V, and Zn. Some elements (Mn, Na, As) tend to accumulate in heavier fractions, whereas chlorine and iodine are concentrated in the more volatile fractions. The volatility of sulphur compounds in the shale oil products appears to be essentially uniform, with some tendency toward accumulation in distillation residues. The tendency for the trace elements to accumulate in the waxes that precipitated from cooled heavy distillates was very low.     

Titrimetric and spectrophotometric methods for the determination of cerium(IV) in aqueous solution

A titrimetric and spectrophotometric methods for cerium(IV) determination have worked out. The first method relies upon the treatment of cerium(IV) solution with an excessive amount of iodide; the liberated iodine is extracted into chloroform, then reduced to iodide. The latter is iodometrically determined after 6- or 36-fold amplification. The spectropho-tometric finish is based upon the reaction of the titled ion with iron(II), in the presence of hexacyanoferrate(II), to form an intense prussian blue color suitable for the trace determination of cerium(IV) ion.     

A New Spectrophotometric Method for the Determination of Ascorbic Acid Using Leuco Malachite Green

A new simple and sensitive and selective spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of ascorbic acid (AA) at trace level using a new reagent, leuco malachite green (LMG). AAreacts with potassium iodide‐iodate solution under acidic conditions to liberate iodine and the liberated iodine selectively oxidizes LMG to MG dye. The colour of the dye was measured at 620 nm. Beer's law is obeyed over the concentration range of 0.8–8 iμg μAA per 25 mL of final solution (0.032–0.32 ppm). The apparent molar absorptivity and Sandell's sensitivity of the method were found to be 2.98 × 10⁵ l mol⁻¹ cm⁻¹, 0.0042 μg cm⁻², and respectively. Statistical treatment of the experimental results indicates that the method is precise and accurate. The method is free from interference of common ions and many of the ingredients commonly found in pharmaceuticals. The reliability of the method was established by parallel determination against Leucocrystal violet (LCV) method. The method described was satisfactorily applied for the determination of AA in fruit juices, pharmaceuticals and biological samples.     

Analytical characterization of CuInS(2) semiconductor material

Systematic analytical procedures have been developed for determination of the stoichiometry of CuInS(2) and estimation of trace elements, including dopants and impurities, in the material. Samples of CuInS(2) are digested in an oxidizing acid to ensure completely transformation into Cu(2+), In(3+) and SO(4)(2-) ions. The stoichiometry determination is made sequentially by controlled potential electro-deposition of copper, followed by its EDTA titration, titrimetric determination of indium and gravimetric determination of sulphate, in a single sample solution. The relative errors for the determination of Cu and In are found to be -0.08% and +0.11% respectively, fulfilling the requirement for accurate stoichiometry assessment; that for S is -0.66%, which though rather high is still acceptable. For the determination of trace elements in CuInS(2), multistage combined procedures are employed. Cu in the sample solution is removed by electro-deposition and In by extraction of HInBr(4) with isopropyl ether, then most of the trace elements are finally determined by atomic-absorption spectrometry, and the rest by neutron-activation analysis. All the steps involved in the procedures have been optimized by using radioisotopes as tracers. By the procedures developed, a wide range of trace elements in CuInS(2), down to submicrogram level, can be determined.
