Flow Injection Chemiluminescence Determination of Prednisone Acetate by Oxidation with N-Bromosuccinimide

A simple flow injection chemiluminescence (CL) method for the determination of prednisone acetate was developed. This method is based on the fact that the strong CL of N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) and calcein can be inhibited by prednisone acetate. The CL intensity correlated linearly with the concentration of prednisone acetate over the ranges of 0.02–0.4 mg/L and 0.4–10 mg/L. The CL mechanism was also proposed. The detection limit (3σ) of prednisone acetate was 13 ng/mL and the relative standard deviation was 1.3% at 0.1 mg/L prednisone acetate (n = 11 measurements). This method was applied to the determination of prednisone acetate in the tablets with good results.     

Flow‐Injection Chemiluminescence Analysis of Cloperastione Hydrochloride

Abstract

A new chemiluminescence (CL) reaction was observed when cloperastine hydrochloride was injected into the reaction mixture after the CL reaction of Ce(IV) and sodium sulfite finished. A new flow injection CL method for the determination of cloperastine hydrochloride was established based on the CL reaction. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for the determination of cloperastine hydrochloride was 1.3% (n=11, c=1.0×10^?6 g/mL). The CL intensity responded linearly to the concentration of cloperastine hydrochloride in the range 2.0×10^?7～2.0×10^?5 g/mL (r=0.9962). The detection limit was 5×10^?8 g/mL cloperastine hydrochloride. The method had been applied to the determination of cloperastine hydrochloride in tablets with satisfactory results.     

Determination of Diammonium Glycyrrhizinate and Its Antioxidant Activity Using a Novel Chemiluminescence System

A novel chemiluminescence (CL) system was established for the determination of diammonium glycyrrhizinate (DG) in pharmaceutical preparations and its ability of scavenging hydroxyl radical. It was shown that a strong CL signal was observed when Eosin Y mixed with Fenton reagent. The CL intensity was decreased significantly when DG was added to the reaction system and partially scavenged the hydroxyl radicals in the solution. The extent of decrease in the CL intensity had a good stoichiometrical relationship with DG concentration. Based on this, we developed a new method for the determination of DG using a flow injection chemiluminescence (FI-CL) technique. Under the optimal conditions, the linear range of DG concentration was 6.0 × 10^?8–5.0 × 10^?6 mol/L (R = 0.9982) with a detection limit of 8.0 × 10^?9 mol/L (SN = 3), and the RSD was 3.8% for 2.0 × 10^?7 mol/L DG (n = 11). This method was successfully used in the determination of DG in tablets and the evaluation of hydroxyl radical scavenging capacity of DG. The possible reaction mechanism of the CL system is discussed.

A simple, sensitive and rapid flow-injection chemiluminescence (CL) method has been developed for the determination of indole derivatives including indole-2,3-dione (isatin) and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), based on the increased CL reaction of potassium permanganate-formaldehyde system in acidic medium. Strong CL was observed when the indole derivatives were injected into the acidic potassium permanganate solution in a flow-cell. Under the optimum conditions, the linear range of the determination was 0.1–100.0 µM for isatin and 0.01–10.0 µM for IAA. The detection limit (3σ) was 10.0 nM for isatin and 1.0 nM for IAA. The method has been successfully applied to the determination of isatin in biological samples and of IAA in biological samples and soil extracts with satisfactory results.     

Determination of Three Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs in Human Plasma by LC Coupled with Chemiluminescence Detection

A simple and sensitive method was developed for the determination of three nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs)—ibuprofen, naproxen and fenbufen in human plasma. The method involved in column liquid chromatographic separation and chemilumenescence (CL) detection based on the CL reaction of NSAIDs, potassium permanganate (KMnO₄) and sodium sulfite (Na₂SO₃) in sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) medium. The chromatographic separation was carried out using a reversed-phase C₁₈ column, which allowed the selective determination of the three medicines in the complicated samples. The special features of the CL detector provided lower LOD for determination than that of existing chromatographic alternatives. The results indicated that the linear ranges were 0.01–10.0 μg mL⁻¹ for ibuprofen, 0.001–1.0 μg mL⁻¹ for naproxen, and 0.01–10.0 μg mL⁻¹ for fenbufen. The limits of detection were 0.5 ng mL⁻¹ for ibuprofen, 0.05 ng mL⁻¹ for naproxen and 0.5 ng mL⁻¹ for fenbufen (S/N = 3). All average recoveries were in the range of 90.0–102.3%. Finally, the method had been satisfactorily applied for the determination of ibuprofen, naproxen and fenbufen in human plasma samples.

The effect of reagents concentration, flow rate, sample loop volume, photomultiplier voltage and IERC length was optimised. The mean results for natural water samples analysed by the proposed method were not significantly different at 95% confidence limit with the previously reported HPLC method. Interference from chloride ions could be eliminated by using SPE procedure or incorporating an in-line IERC. The CL mechanism of DPA–H₂SO₄–CYR system was also discussed briefly.

Determination of manganese (VII), chromium (VI) and nickel (II) in medicinal herb samples by cloud-point extraction and high-performance liquid chromatography

A highly sensitive method for the determination of manganese (VII), chromium (VI) and nickel (II) in medicinal herb samples is proposed. The method is based on analytes reacted with ammonium pyrrolidinedithiocarbamate (APDC) to give hydrophobic chelates (M–APDC), which were separated and enriched by cloud-point extraction (CPE) with non-ionic surfactant Tergitol TMN-6 as extractant. The surfactant-rich phase containing the chelates is determined with a high-performance liquid chromatography system. To achieve the best CPE method, the Box–Behnken design was used to study the concentration of Tergitol TMN-6, equilibrium temperature, equilibrium time as well as their interaction. What followed was the individual research for the pH of the sample solutions and the concentration of APDC. What is more, in the given optimized experimental conditions, calibration plots were found to be linear in the range of 0.0200–0.500 mg/L for Mn (VII) and Cr (VI), meanwhile 0.0500–1.00 mg/L for Ni (II), the linear correlation coefficients were between 0.996 and 0.999, the recoveries ranged from 91.8 to 97.8 % and the relative standard deviations were between 1.09 and 2.30 % (n = 3).

Efficient chemiluminescence by aptamer – reactant platform combination with activated Ag–Au alloy nanoparticles for cobalt detection

This article deals with the detection of Co(II) in real water sample using aptamer – reactant platform combination with activated Ag–Au alloy nanoparticles (NPs) by chemiluminescence (CL) method. CL is attributed to a catalytically enhanced decomposition of H₂O₂ by aptamer conjugated Ag–Au alloy NPs to produce reactive oxygen species. The Ag–Au alloy NPs were prepared by chemical method using double reducing agent (i.e. trisodium citrate and polyethylenimine) and used for detection of Co(II) from water by CL method. CL experiments were carried out with the variation of different parameters such as pH, concentration of luminol, concentration of H₂O₂ and Ag–Au alloy NPs. We found that Ag–Au alloy NPs have very good efficiency towards Co(II) detection. Analytical parameters and kinetics were studied in detail to know the nature and mechanism of CL in presence of aptamer conjugated Ag–Au alloy NPs. The linear range of the CL sensor of Co(II) is covered concentration from 0.01 to 10 µg/L with detection limit of 0.001 µg/L. The relative standard deviation for determination of Co(II) was 6.65 in 10 replicated measurements. CL method is first time applied to detect the Co(II) in real water samples at very low level using aptamer conjugated Ag–Au NPs as a catalyst.
