Analysis of fish otoliths by electrothermal vaporization inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry: aspects of precipitating otolith calcium with hydrofluoric acid for trace element determination

A method is developed for determination of trace elements, including Ag, As, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Mn, Ni, Se, Tl and Zn, in fish otoliths by electrothermal vaporization inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ETV-ICP-MS). Hydrofluoric acid was used to precipitate calcium resulting from acid dissolution of otolith calcium carbonate. Initial acidity of the sample solution influenced the precipitation efficiency of calcium fluoride. Up to 99.5% of Ca was precipitated in solutions that contained less than 2% (v/v) HNO₃. Recoveries of the elements obtained from spiked artificial otolith solutions were between 90 and 103%. Stabilization of the elements within the ETV cell was achieved with 0.3 μg Pd/0.2 μg Rh chemical modifier that also afforded optimum sensitivity for multielement determination. The method was validated by the analysis of a fish otolith reference material (CRM) of emperor snapper, and then applied to the determination of the trace elements in otoliths of several fish species captured in Raritan Bay, New Jersey. Results indicated that fish physiology and biological processes could influence the levels of Cu, Mn, Se and Zn in the otoliths of fish inhabiting a similar aqueous environment. Otolith concentrations of Cr and Ni did not show any significant differences among different species. Concentrations for Ag, As, Cd, Co and Tl were also not significantly different, but were very low indicating low affinity of otolith calcium carbonate to these elements.     

Determination of the Enthalpies of Vaporization of Cyclic Organic Peroxides by Correlation of Changes in Gas Chromatographic Retention Times

Liquid and solid cyclic peroxides derived from aliphatic ketones are explosive materials so their enthalpies of vaporization and other thermodynamic or condensed-phase properties cannot be measured directly. In this work the enthalpies of vaporization of peroxides at 298.15 K were estimated simply from gas chromatographic retention times measured at different temperatures. The technique correlates changes in the retention times of compounds whose enthalpies of vaporization are known (called the reference series), with those of the compounds of interest. If t _R′ is the adjusted retention time (retention time of each compound minus the retention time of unretained diethyl ether, used as solvent) a plot of ln t _R′ against 1/T for each compound (reference compounds and cyclic peroxides) results in a straight line (r ² > 0.99 for all compounds). The enthalpy of transfer from solution to the vapor state (Δ_sol^g H _m) can be obtained by multiplying the slope by the gas constant (R). A second plot correlates the enthalpies of transfer from solution to the vapor state (Δ_sol^g H _m), as measured by gas–liquid chromatography (GLC), with enthalpies of vaporization of reference materials (Δ_vap H _m at 298.15 K) available in the literature. C₉–C₁₅ fatty acid methyl esters and hydrocarbons were used as reference compounds. The enthalpies of vaporization of the cyclic organic peroxides were calculated from the equation of the line obtained in this second correlation, the slope of which was Δ_vap H _m (at 298.15 K)/Δ^g _sol H _m. The experiments were performed under isothermal conditions with a DB-5 capillary column, flame-ionization detection (FID), and nitrogen as carrier gas. The column temperature was varied over a range of at least 30–70 K between 403 and 473 K, with chromatograms being acquired at 10 K intervals. Enthalpies of vaporization of cyclic organic peroxides are not available in the literature, and the values given in this paper, obtained by gas chromatography, are the first to be reported.     

Large-volume PTV injection: Comparison of direct water injection and in-vial extraction for GC analysis of triazines

Summary The potential of large-volume PTV injection was studied for the analysis of triazine herbicides in water samples. Direct water injection and in-vial extraction were described and compared. Detection limits were between 0.01–0.02 μg L⁻¹ and relative standard deviations were <9%. Both methods are suitable for the analysis of triazines at ppt-level, although in-vial extraction is favourable for water samples with relatively large amounts of matrix components.     

Thermochemistry of Amines: Experimental Standard Molar Enthalpies of Formation of N-Alkylated Piperidines

The standard molar enthalpies of formation _f H _m ^° (l) at the temperature T = 298.15 K were determined using combustion calorimetry for N-methylpiperidine (A), N-ethylpiperidine (B), N-propylpiperidine (C), N-butylpiperidine (D), N-cyclopentylpiperidine (E), N-cyclohexylpiperidine (F), and N-phenylpiperidine (G). The standard molar enthalpies of vaporization _l ^g H ^{m °} of these compounds were obtained from the temperature variation of the vapor pressure measured in a flow system. From these data the following standard molar enthalpies of formation in gaseous phase _f H _m ^° (g) were derived for: A –(61.39 ± 0.88); B –(88.1 ± 1.3); C –(105.81 ± 0.66); D –(126.2 ± 1.3); E ( –88.21 ± 0.75); F –(135.21 ± 0.94); G (70.3 ± 1.4) kJ · mol^–1. They are used to determine the strain enthalpies of the cyclic amines A–G. The N-alkylated piperidine rings have been found to be about strainless.     

Programmed Temperature Vaporization Injection (PTV) in the Analysis by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) of the Constituents of Landfill Gas

Abstract

Trace volatile compounds emitted from both domestic and industrial landfills have been identified by programmed temperature vaporization injection (PTV) coupled to gas chromatography with detection by ion-trap mass spectrometry (GC-ITD/MS). The PTV injection system has been developed using a combination of two six-port valves to achieve problems of interference in GC-MS while loading sample. A large volume of landfill gas was re-concentrated onto a sorbent trap, then rapidly liberated into the GC-ITD/MS system by programmed thermal desorption. Using this method, trace volatile compounds in gases from both domestic and industrial landfills such as aromatic hydrocarbons, terpenes, chlorinated hydrocarbons, and sulfur compounds can be identified and quantified.     

Determination of Pd,Rh, Pt,Au in road dust by electrothermal vaporization inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry with slurry sampling

Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry coupled with ultrasonic slurry sampling electrothermal vaporization (USS-ETV-ICP-MS) has been applied to determine Pd, Rh, Pt and Au in 0.5% m/v slurries of several road dust samples. 2% m/v ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (APDC) was used as the modifier to enhance the ion count. The influence of instrument operating conditions, slurry preparation and interferences on the ion count was reported. This method has been applied to the determination of Pd, Rh, Pt and Au in BCR 723 Road Dust and NIST SRM 2709 San Joaquin Soil reference materials and two road dust samples collected locally. The analysis results of the standard reference materials agreed with the certified values. Precision between sample replicates was better than 10% for all the determinations. The method detection limits estimated from standard addition curves were 0.9, 0.4, 0.6 and 0.4 ng g⁻¹ for Pd, Rh, Pt and Au, respectively, in original dust samples.     

Organophosphate esters by GC–MS: An optimized method for aquatic risk assessment

Organophosphate esters used as flame retardants and plasticizers are ubiquitous contaminants in surface waters. Many studies indicate that these compounds are neurotoxicants, endocrine disruptors, and may affect reproduction and development of aquatic organisms. Thus, analytical methods that allow accurate quantification of these contaminants at environmentally relevant concentrations are desirable for risk assessment studies. In this study, a method based on solid phase extraction and gas chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry was developed for determination of organophosphate esters in river water extracts. Multivariate optimization was used to determine the best conditions for injection of larger volumes of sample in a Programmable Temperature Vaporization inlet. Furthermore, the matrix effect on the instrumental response was evaluated and compensated by association of extraction‐blank‐matched calibration and isotopically labeled focus standards. The method quantification limits ranged from 0.009 to 0.11 µg/L, staying below the predicted non‐effect concentration for the aquatic compartment for all analytes, which is a requisite for using in risk assessment studies. The method was applied to freshwater samples collected in rivers from the Sao Paulo State, Brazil, and eight out of the ten target organophosphate esters were quantified, being tris(2‐chloroisopropyl) phosphate and tris(phenyl) phosphate the most frequently detected compounds.
