Differential pulse voltammetric determination of selected nitrophenols on novel type of porous silver working electrode prepared by powder metallurgy

Nitrophenols are important environmental pollutants and their monitoring is important because of their genotoxic and ecotoxic properties. Easy electrochemical reduction of nitro groups can be used for their voltammetric determination using mercury based electrodes. However, requirements of green analytical chemistry prompted us to investigate a novel type of silver porous electrode (AgPE) prepared by powder metallurgy compatible with both “green” and “white” analytical chemistry requirements. In this paper, AgPE was for the first time successfully used for differential pulse voltammetric determination of micromolar concentrations of 2-nitrophenol (NP), 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP), and 2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) in aqueous media. The main advantage of the novel method is the possibility to use small sample volume (down to 25 μL) and to work in the presence of oxygen when using supporting electrolyte of pH 3. This advantage partially compensates the fact that the obtained sensitivity and limit of detection are not better than with the previously investigated electrodes.     

Green and efficient determination of ʟ-dopa in complex polypill formulations using a magnetic microplate

A high-throughput and selective method for the determination of ?-dopa (levodopa) in complex formulations was developed. The method is based on the oxidation of ?-dopa to yield dopachrome using tyrosinase-labeled magnetic nanoparticles (TYR-MNPs) as the oxidation catalyst. TYR-MNP activity was retained at 75% after 20 reuse cycles, which is superior to previously reported systems that employ other substrates or cross-linkers for the immobilization of tyrosinase. In addition, the precision (< 3%), accuracy (recovery?=?95–102%), and selectivity of the newly developed quantitative-analysis method for ?-dopa in complex polypill formulations meets the pharmaceutical industry’s quality-control requirements; consequently this method can be applied to the routine analysis of complex formulations. The quality-control assay uses 96-well microplates, which reduces the required volume of reagents, and the tyrosinase can easily be recycled and reused using an in-house-prepared magnetic microplate, thereby rendering the proposed method economical and less wasteful than existing methods.     

Fast analysis of complex metallic alloys by double-pulse time-integrated Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy

Results are reported on the application of double-pulse Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) for fast analysis of complex metallic alloys. The approach followed for the determination of the composition of the alloys is based on the time-integrated acquisition of LIBS spectra emitted by plasmas induced by collinear double-pulse laser excitation. The spectra are analysed using the Partial Least Squares method, which allows the determination of sample composition even in the presence of strong spectral interferences. The results shown indicate the possibility of measuring the composition of complex metallic alloys in very short times and using relatively cheap LIBS instrumentation.     

Sequencing of tri- and tetraantennary N-glycans containing sialic acid by negative mode ESI QTOF tandem MS

Application of the negative mode electrospray ionization-quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI QTOF) tandem MS for determination of substitution patterns by sialic acid and/or fucose and extention by additional LacNAc disaccharide units in single branches of multianternary N-glycans from biological samples is described. Fragmentation patterns which can be obtained by low energy collision-induced dissociation (CID) using the QTOF instrument include cleavage ions, diagnostic for determination of antennarity and for specific structural features of single antennae. Systematic fragmentation studies in the negative ion mode were focussed toward formation of the D diagnostic ion relevant for assignment of 3- and 6-antennae in complex N-glycans carrying three and four antennae in combination with epitope-relevant B- and C-type ions. For validation of this approach ESI QTOF fragmentation of the permethylated analogues was carried out in the positive ion mode. Using this strategy, products of in vitro glycosylation reactions were investigated in order to clarify some general aspects of N-glycan acceptor specificity during biosynthesis. Alpha1-3fucosylation using GDP-fucose along with a soluble form of the recombinant human alpha1-3fucosyltransferase VI was carried out on tri- and tetraantennary precursors to test structural requirements for formation of Le(x) versus sLe(x) motifs.     

Determination of Anionic Surfactants in Water

The use of ternary complexes in the determination of anionic surfactants has been investigated and an analytical method using linear alkyl sulfonates as a test substance has been developed. The method involves the formation of the chloroform-extractable bisphenanthroline Cu(II)-linear alkyl sulfonate (LAS) complex and the subsequent equilibration of the extract with erythrosine to form the extractable bisphenanthroline Cu(II)-erythrosine complex. In the equilibration step erythrosine displaces LAS quantitatively, allowing the determination of the LAS originally present by measuring the absorbance of the extracted bisphenanthroline-Cu(II)-erythrosine complex. Results are reported of studies made to determine the optimum analytical conditions, the sensitivity, and the precision for the method described.     

Emanation thermal analysis

A high pressure differential thermal analysis (DTA) apparatus is described which is capable of operation in the pressure range up to 500 MPa and at temperatures from 25 to 300°C. The requirements for quantitative DTA are examined. The apparatus enables the determination of heat of transition under high pressure by using small samples.     

Kinetics of the thermal decomposition of 2,2′-azobis(2-methylpropionamidine)dihydrochloride studied by the potentiometric method using metal complexes

A potentiometric method was proposed for the determination of rate constants for peroxyl radical generation using the reduced form of the metal in the complex. The kinetics of the thermal decomposition of 2,2′-azobis(2-methylpropionamidine)dihydrochloride was studied. The requirements for an electron donor (reactant) were formulated. The iron(ii) complex with EDTA, the iron(ii) complex with o-phenanthroline, and potassium hexacyanoferrate(ii) were used as reactants. The rate for peroxyl radical generation and the generation rate constant (the latter turned out to be (0.92±0.06)?10^–6 s^–1) were calculated. The studies were carried out for different temperatures and concentrations of the initiator and complex.     

Simultaneous Laser Thermal Lens Spectrometric Determination of Trace Platinum and Palladium in an Aquesous Solution

A selective and sensitive method for determination of platinum and palladium(Ⅱ）in an aqueous solution simultaneously by laser thermal lens spectrometry,based on the complex reaction of 2-(3,5-dichloropyridylazo)-5-dimethylaminoamiline(3,5-diCl-PADMA) with platinum and palladium,has been developed.It is shown that the palladium complex can be fromed at room temperature, while the platinum complex can be only formed after being heated in a boiling water bath.By using this difference of reaction temperature and the characteristic of the complexes mentioned above,the method for simultaneous determination of platinum and palladium was established in an aqueous solution without a pre-separation.The results show that the dynamic linear ranges of determination for platinum and palladium are 0.005-0.04μg/mL and 0.005-0.25μg/mL respectively,and that the detection limits are both 0.002/μg/mL.The method has been applied to the determination of platinum and palladium simultaneously in alloy and catalyst samples with satisfactory results.     

Electrochemical Determination of Boric Acid Using the Boric Acid–Tiron Complexation System

For monitoring the boron concentration in reverse osmosis (RO) water produced by desalination plants, a voltammetric determination method for the amount of electrochemically inactive boron has been developed by using the complexation with 4,5‐dihydroxybenzene‐1,3‐disulfonic acid (Tiron). Cyclic voltammetric measurements showed the oxidation peak of boric acid–Tiron 1 : 1 complex at 920 mV. This peak was successfully applied to the determination of boron in RO water with the LOD of 0.1 mg B dm^?3 by using differential pulse voltammetry. The redox and acid–dissociation behaviors of Tiron and its boron complex are found to depend on the properties of pH buffer reagent.     

Determination of adenosine disodium triphosphate (ATP) using oxytetracycline-Eu3+ as a fluorescence probe by spectrofluorimetry

A new spectrofluorimetric method was developed for determination of adenosine disodium triphosphate (ATP). We studied the interactions between oxytetracycline (OTC)-Eu3+ complex and adenosine disodium triphosphate (ATP) by using UV-vis absorption and fluorescence spectra. Using oxytetracycline (OTC)-Eu3+ as a fluorescence probe, under the optimum conditions, ATP can remarkably enhance the fluorescence intensity of the OTC-Eu3+ complex at lambda = 612 nm and the enhanced fluorescence intensity of Eu3+ ion is in proportion to the concentration of ATP. Optimum conditions for the determination of ATP were also investigated. The linear ranges for ATP are 8.00 x 10(-8)-1.50 x 10(-6) mol L(-1) with detection limits of 2.67 x 10(-9) mol L(-1). This method is simple, practical and relatively free interference from coexisting substances and can be successfully applied to determination of ATP in samples. The mechanism of fluorescence enhancement between oxytetracycline (OTC)-Eu3+ complex and ATP was also studied.     

Determination of vanadium in biological and environmental samples by RNAA with emphasis on quality control

Summary In the present work an improvement of radiochemical neutron activation analysis for determination of nanogram levels of vanadium is described. The method is based on post-irradiation wet ashing and solvent extraction of vanadium with N-benzoyl-N-phenyl-hydroxylamine (BPHA) forming a violet chelate complex in strongly acidic medium. For quality assurance purposes a procedure for determination of the overall chemical yield using spectrophotometry of the V-BPHA complex is described, and possible interferences are evaluated. The procedure was applied to the determination of vanadium in reference materials and selected food samples from Slovenia.     

Elaboration of a radioimmunoanalytical method for the determination of serum ferritin

A radioimmunoanalytical (RIA) method was elaborated for the determination of ferritin in human blood serum in clinical practice. Placental ferritin separated from the human after-delivery placental and antibodies against the human placental ferritin obtained by the immunization of rabbits with this antigen were used. The whole complex of basic conditions and parameters of the RIA method was tested including the estimation of the region of normal values and clinical tests. The method elaborated was compared with the commercial kit Ferritin RIA Amersham, code IM 1051, chosen as reference kit. The results of the determination of control parameters as well as ferritin levels obtained by the method elaborated exert good agreement with the reference kit and correspond to requirements for routine RIA practice.     

Determination of critical micelle concentration of surfactants by capillary electrophoresis

Capillary electrophoresis (CE) has been proven to be a convenient and useful technique for the determination of the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of a surfactant in an electrophoretic system under operating conditions. In this review, methodological approaches to the determination of the CMC of surfactants by CE technique are described. The practical requirements for making such measurements and the CMC values of surfactants determined by CE methods are presented. In addition, difficulties and uncertainty, as well as misconceptions that may arise in the CMC determination are discussed.     

Spectrophotometric determination of trace aluminium content in parenteral solutions by combined cloud point preconcentration-flow injection analysis

A cloud point preconcentration and flow injection (FI) analysis methodology for aluminium(III) determination has been developed. The analyte in the initial aqueous solution was complexed with Chrome Azurol S (CAS) in the presence of the cationic surfactant benzyldimethyltetradecylammonium chloride (BDTAC). The absorption spectroscopic characteristics of the ternary complex [Al(III)-CAS-BDTAC] were examined in detail. The preconcentration step was carried out by means of the non-ionic surfactant polyethylene glycol p-nonylphenyl ether (PONPE 7.5). The enriched analyte solution was injected into an FI system using an HPLC pump. The chemical variables affecting the analytical performance of the combined methodology were studied and optimised. The developed approach was successfully applied to the determination of trace amounts of aluminium in parenteral solutions without previous treatment. Under the optimum experimental conditions, 99.9% extraction was achieved for a preconcentration factor of 50. The limit of detection was 1.12 x 10(-7) mol(-1). The calibration plot was linear over at least two orders of magnitude of aluminium concentration. The developed coupled methodology, which thoroughly satisfies the typical requirements for pharmaceutical control processes, is appropriate for monitoring the aluminium concentration in parenteral nutrition.     

Determination of platinum and iridium in reforming catalysts by second derivative and absorptiometric spectrophotometry

Summary Investigations on the spectrophotometric determination of platinum as a complex formed by tin(II)chloride in hydrochloric acid are reported. The determination of platinum was found to be interfered with by iridium, because it also forms a complex with tin(II) chloride. The features of the derivative absorption spectrophotometry for the quantitative determination of platinum and iridium was also studied. The analytical application of the method for the determination of platinum and iridium in catalysts was investigated.     

Spectrophotometric determination of palladium after solid-liquid extraction with 1-(2-Pyridylazo)-2-naphthol at 90 degrees C

An effective spectrophotometric determination of palladium with 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) using molten naphthalene as a diluent has been studied. A green complex of palladium with PAN is formed at 90 degrees C. In the range of pH 1.5-7.5, the complex is quantitatively extracted into molten naphthalene. The organic phase is anhydrously dissolved in CHCl(3) to be determined spectrophotometrically at 678 nm against the reagent blank. Beer's law is obeyed over the concentration range of 0.5-10 ppm. The molar absorptivity and Sandell's sensitivity are 1.2 x 10(4) l mol(-1) cm(-1) and 0.0070 mg cm(-2), respectively. The optimum conditions for determination are obtained. The interferences of various ions are observed in detail. The method has been applied to the determination of palladium in synthetic samples.     

Determination of trace amounts of thallium by adsorptive cathodic stripping voltammetry with xylenol orange.

Trace amounts of thallium(I) can be determined using adsorptive cathodic stripping voltammetry in the presence of Xylenol Orange (XO). The reduction current of the thallium(I)-XO complex ion was measured by square-wave cathodic stripping voltammetry. The peak potential was at -0.44 V vs. Ag/AgCl. The effect of various parameters (pH, ligand concentration, accumulation potential and collection time) on the response are discussed. The response was linearly related to the thallium concentration in the range 0.5-110 ng ml(-1) and 110-2000 ng ml(-1). The limit of detection was 0.2 ng ml(-1). The relative standard deviation for the determination of 80 ng ml(-1) thallium was 2.8%. Many common anions and cations did not interfere with the determination of thallium. The interference of lead was reduced by the addition of 0.003 M sodium carbonate. The voltammetric procedure was then successfully applied to the determination of thallium in various complex samples.     

Finding the 3D structure of a molecule in its IR spectrum

 The labile iron(II) and iron(III) species are complexed directly in the sample solution with 1,10 phenanthroline and ferron (8-hydroxy-7-iodoquinoline-5-sulfonic acid), respectively. The complexes thus formed are mutually adsorbed and separated by solid phase extraction. The direct determination of iron(III) and iron(II) species with flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS) follows the elution of the iron(III)-ferron complex adsorbed by an anion-exchange and an iron(II)-phenanthroline complex adsorbed by a non-polar RP-18 phase. In the case of indirect determination, the iron(II)-phenanthroline complex that passes through the anion-exchange phase, is measured, and the content of iron(III) is calculated by the difference of the iron(II) and the total iron content. A direct determination with this method has been applied to the iron species analysis in wine samples and the results are compared with those obtained for the determination with adsorptive stripping voltammetry (ASV) as reference method.
