Chemiluminescence of Peracetic Acid in Alkaline Medium and its Application to Dihydralazine Sulfate Determination

The chemiluminescence (CL) of peracetic acid (PAA) in alkaline medium is very weak but is strongly enhanced after the addition of dihydralazine sulfate (DHZS). Based on this phenomenon, a simple, rapid and highly sensitive flow-injection CL method for the determination of DHZS was developed. The CL emission was linearly related to the DHZS concentration in the range of 20–4000 ng mL⁻¹ with a detection limit (3σ) of 1.2 ng mL⁻¹. As a preliminary application, the proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of DHZS in pharmaceutical preparations; the recovery of DHZS in human urine was between 96.5% and 102.2%. A detailed CL mechanism was proposed and singlet molecular oxygen (¹O₂) was suggested to be produced in the CL reaction process.

Small angle neutron scattering study of alkyl polyoxyethylene sulfate micelles. Sodium dodecyl-(oxyethylene)2 sulfate in D2O-H2O mixtures at 25°C

SANS data have been obtained for C₁₂H₂₅ (OC₂H₄)₂SO₄ Na. Results have been obtained for i) a series of solutions of variable concentration of the surfactant, ii) an approximately 0.07 M surfactant concentration to which variable amounts of NaCl were added, iii) a series of solutions 0.058M in surfactant but in different D₂O-H₂O mixtures. The SANS data can be described in terms of a model of monodispersed hard spheres interacting via a screened Coulombic potential. The micelles seem to be able to tolerate substantial amounts of salt without changing the internal structure.     

Separation and selectivity in micellar electrokinetic chromatography using sodium dodecyl sulfate micelles or Tween 20-modified mixed micelles

The separation and selectivity of eight aromatic compounds ranging from hydrophilic to hydrophobic properties in micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) using sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micelles or Tween 20-modified mixed micelles were investigated. The effect of different operation conditions such as SDS and Tween 20 modifier surfactant concentration, buffer pH, and applied voltage was studied. The resolution and selectivity of analytes could be markedly affected by changing the SDS micelle concentration or Tween 20 content in the mixed micelles. Applied voltage and pH of running buffers were used mainly to shorten the separation time. Complete separation of eight analytes could be achieved with an appropriate choice of the concentration of SDS micelles or Tween 20-modified mixed micelles. Quicker elution and better precision could be obtained with SDS-Tween 20 mixed micelles than with SDS micelles. The mechanisms that migration order of those analytes was mainly based on their structures and solute-micelle interactions, including hydrophobic, electrostatic, and hydrogen bonding interactions, were discussed.

Microchip electrophoretic protein separation using electroosmotic flow induced by dynamic sodium dodecyl sulfate-coating of uncoated plastic chips

Separation of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-protein complexes is difficult on plastic microchips due to protein adsorption onto the wall. In this paper, we elucidated the reasons for the difficulties in separating SDS-protein complexes on plastic microchips, and we then demonstrated an effective method for separating proteins using polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) microchips. Separation difficulties were found to be dependent on adsorption of SDS onto the hydrophobic surface of the channel, by which cathodic electroosmotic flow (EOF; reversed flow) was generated. Our developed method effectively utilized the reversed flow from this cathodic EOF as a driving force for sample proteins using permanently uncoated but dynamic SDS-coated PMMA microchips. High-speed (6 s) separation of proteins and peptides up to 116 kDa was successfully achieved using this system.     

The Additive Influence of Propane-1,2-Diol on SDS Micellar Structure and Properties

Micellar systems are colloids with significant properties for pharmaceutical and food applications. They can be used to formulate thermodynamically stable mixtures to solubilize hydrophobic food-related substances. Furthermore, micellar formation is a complex process in which a variety of intermolecular interactions determine the course of formation and most important are the hydrophobic and hydrophilic interactions between surfactant–solvent and solvent–solvent. Glycols are organic compounds that belong to the group of alcohols. Among them, propane-1,2-diol (PG) is a substance commonly used as a food additive or ingredient in many cosmetic and hygiene products. The nature of the additive influences the micellar structure and properties of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). When increasing the mass fraction of propane-1,2-diol in binary mixtures, the c.m.c. values decrease because propane-1,2-diol is a polar solvent, which gives it the ability to form hydrogen bonds, decreasing the cohesivity of water and reducing the dielectric constant of the aqueous phase. The values of ΔGm0 are negative in all mixed solvents according to the reduction in solvophobic interactions and increase in electrostatic interaction. With the rising concentration of cosolvent, the equilibrium between cosolvent in bulk solution and in the formed micelles is on the side of micelles, leading to the formation of micelles at a lower concentration with a small change in micellar size. According to the ¹H NMR, with the addition of propylene glycol, there is a slight shift of SDS peaks towards lower ppm regions in comparison to the D₂O peak. The shift is more evident with the increase in the amount of added propane-1,2-diol in comparison to the NMR spectra of pure SDS. Addition of propane-1,2-diol causes the upfield shift of the protons associated with hydrophilic groups, causing the shielding effect. This signifies that the alcohol is linked with the polar head groups of SDS due to its proximity to the SDS molecules.     

Ultra-slow Relaxation Dynamics in Triglycine Sulfate and D-Sorbitol Studied by Time-resolved Spectroscopy

The ultra-slow modes with a relaxation time much longer than 1 ns are discovered by a time-resolved spectroscopy in uniaxial ferroelectric (NH₂CH₂COOH)₃H₂SO₄ (TGS) and in glass-former HOCH₂(CHOH)₄CH₂OH (D-sorbitol). A mode discovered in TGS is a thermal relaxational mode and is proved to be the physical origin of the central peak found by Brillouin scattering. Two modes are discovered in D-sorbitol. One is a thermal relaxational mode. The other is a mode characterized by the Kohlraush-Williams-Watts function with a relaxation time _R. A remarkable result is that _R indicates a critical behavior not at the liquid-glass transition temperature T_g =–7°C but at the ergodic to nonergodic transition temperature T_c=33°C.This revised version was published online in November 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Hygrometric Determination of Water Activities, Osmotic and Activity Coefficients, and Excess Gibbs Energy of the System MgSO4–K2SO4–H2O

Ternary aqueous solutions of MgSO₄ and K₂SO₄ have been studied by the hygrometric method at 25°C. The relative humidity of this system is measured at total molalities from 0.35 mol-kg^–1 to about saturation for three ionic-strength fractions (y = 0.25, 0.50, and 0.80 of MgSO₄. The data allow calculation of water activities and osmotic coefficients. From these measurements, the Pitzer ionic mixing parameters are determined and used to predict the solute activity coefficients in the mixture. The results are used to calculate the excess Gibbs energy at total molalities for ionic-strength fraction y.
