Separation of fatty acid methyl esters by comprehensive two-dimensional supercritical fluid chromatography with packed columns and programming of sampling duration

Fatty acid methyl esters from various fats and oils were separated by comprehensive two-dimensional supercritical fluid chromatography with conventional packed columns and FID detection. The first dimension was a silica gel column and the second dimension was an ODS column. This combination was largely orthogonal for the separation of fatty acid methyl esters. The first dimension separations were primarily based on the number of double bonds while the second dimension separations were based on the chain length. The highly-ordered chromatograms and improved resolution allowed the easy detection and identification of minor components. Although the first dimension separations were performed under isobaric conditions where the peak width increased in proportion to the retention, the programming of the sampling duration allowed us to maintain the optimum re-injection frequency (3–4 times) per peak into the second dimension and so to minimize the total analysis time without deteriorating the resolution.     

Application of a retention database to the identification of individual polychlorinated biphenyl congeners in Aroclors mixture using selected polychlorinated biphenyls as a reference series

The database of the relative retention times (RRTs) of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) reported in literature was used to calculate the retention indices (RIs) of all 209 PCB congeners on temperature programmed capillary column Rtx-5. Calculation of retention indices was based on reference series of seven congeners (PCB IUPAC Nos. 18, 52, 101, 143, 185, 203 and 206) that exhibit linear relative retention time behaviour as a function of chlorine number. The calculated indices were compared to those determined in our laboratory as well as to those obtained by other authors. The proposed indices system was applied for identification individual congeners in mixture of Aroclors 1242:1254:1260, using only reference series of PCBs.     

Continuous solid-phase extraction and preconcentration of bisphenol A in aqueous samples using molecularly imprinted columns

A bisphenol A (BPA) molecularly imprinted polymer, the composition of which was optimised using a chemometric approach, has been applied to the selective preconcentration of the template from aqueous samples. The selectivity of the polymer toward BPA and related compounds was evaluated chromatographically. The BPA-imprinted polymer was packed in a column and used for continuous on-column solid-phase extraction (MISPE) of aqueous samples followed by subsequent analysis by HPLC with fluorescence detection of the eluted fractions. The composition of the washing solvent applied in the MISPE procedure was optimised to favour the specific interactions of the MIP with BPA and to remove the non-selectively bound matrix components. The MISPE method has proven to be effective for selective preconcentration of BPA in aqueous samples (recoveries >84% obtained in the eluate for 10–100 mL sample volumes) enabling detection and quantification limits of 1.0 and 3.3 ng mL^–1, respectively (based on 25 mL sample size). Analytical recoveries were between 92 and 101% for river water samples spiked with known amounts of BPA (30, 60, and 80 ng mL^–1); relative standard deviations (RSD) were lower than 5.0%.

16, 18O induced transfer reactions on122, 120Sn

The reactions¹²⁰Sn+72 MeV¹⁸O and¹²²Sn+74 MeV¹⁶O were investigated with time of-flightE-E-telescopes. Data are presented for all quasi-elastic reaction channels. The two neutron stripping and pickup reactions (¹⁸O,¹⁶O), (¹⁸O,²⁰O) and (¹⁶O,¹⁸O) are analyzed in detail. It is shown that these heavy ion induced two neutron transfer reactions proceed with essentially the same type of selectivity as the corresponding light ion induced reactions. The differential cross sections for transfer reactions leaving the^{120, 122}Sn nuclei in their 2⁺ first excited states are shown to be influenced by interference effects due to additional inelastic excitations.     

Inner-shell ionization ofZ=25–32 elements by 5-48 MeV32S ions

TheK-shell ionization cross sections of Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn and Ge under³²S bombardment have been measured in the energy range from 5 to 48 MeV. The cross sections are compared with available theories based on a direct Coulomb ionization mechanism and with the predictions of theK-vacancy sharing process. This last process can reasonably account for the measured cross sections at high bombarding energies. The energy shifts of theK - andK -lines and theK /K -intensity ratios have also been measured. This information is used to deduce the defect configuration of the atoms. The mechanisms responsible for the multiple vacancy production are discussed.

Depressing defocusing effect in microscopy by bi-orthogonal wavelet transform

For different dimensions, heights and irregular shapes, small and large particles cannot be viewed simultaneously as sharp images under the microscope due to optical defocusing effects. Bi-orthogonal wavelet transform is used in this paper to depress such defocusing effect by merging the wavelet coefficients of the image series. The algorithm is presented in detail, using SWE(13,7) and CDF(2,2), and a few particle images are provided to validate the proposed method.
