Determination of Potassium Ferrocyanide in Foods by Resonance Rayleigh Scattering Method with Double-Charged Triaminotriphenylmethane Dyes

In pH 1.0 acidic medium, double-charged triaminotriphenylmethane dyes such as methyl green （MEG） and iodine green （IG） react with potassium ferrocyanide to form 2 ： 1 ion-association complexes by virtue of electrostatic forces and hydrophobic interaction. It results in the change of absorption and the great enhancement of resonance Rayleigh scattering （RRS） and the appearance of new RRS spectra. Two systems have similar spectral characteristics and their maximum RRS wavelengths are all located at 276 nm and smaller peaks are located at 332 and 457 nm, respectively. The intensity of RRS is directly proportional to the concentration of [Fe（CN）6]^4- in the range of 0.03-5.7 μg·mL^-1 （MeG system） or 0.04-5.9 μg·mL^-1 （IG system）. The RRS method has high sensitivity and the detection limit （3σ） for potassium ferrocyanide is 9.3 ng·mL^-1 （MeG system） or 11.2 ng·mL^-1 （IG system）. The optimum conditions, influencing factors and effects of foreign substances are investigated. The method also has a good selectivity. A sensitive, rapid and simple RRS method for the determination of potassium ferrocyanide in salinized food and table salt has been developed.

A new single‐urea‐bound 3,5‐dimethylphenylcarbamoylated β‐cyclodextrin chiral stationary phase and its enhanced separation performance in normal‐phase liquid chromatography

A new single‐urea‐bound chiral stationary phase based on 3,5‐dimethylphenylcarbamoylated β‐cyclodextrin was prepared through the Staudinger reaction of mono (6^A‐azido‐6^A‐deoxy)‐per(3,5‐dimethylphenylcarbamoylated) β‐cyclodextrin and 3‐aminopropyl silica gel under CO₂ atmosphere. The new phase exhibited good enantioseparation performance for 33 analytes using normal‐phase HPLC conditions; 19 of them were baseline separated. Effects of structure of analytes, alcoholic modifiers, and acidic/basic additives on separation performances of this new cyclodextrin chiral stationary phase have been studied in detail. The results showed that the retention and resolution of acidic and basic analytes on the CSP were greatly affected by the additives. Peak symmetry for some analytes could be improved by simultaneously adding acidic and basic additives to the mobile phase. This work expands the potential applications of the cyclodextrin‐based chiral stationary phases in the normal‐phase HPLC.     

Resonance Rayleigh scattering spectra of tetracycline antibiotic–Cu(II)–titan yellow systems and their applications in analytical chemistry

Tetracycline antibiotics (TCs) such as doxycycline (DOTC), chlortetracycline (CTC), oxytetracycline (OTC), and tetracycline (TC) react with Cu(II) in pH 3.5 BR buffer medium to form 1:1 cationic chelates, which further react with titan yellow to form 2:1 ion association complexes. These result in great enhancement of resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) and the appearance of new RRS spectra. The ion association complexes of DOTC, CTC, OTC, and TC have similar spectral characteristics and their maximum RRS wavelengths are all located at 464 nm. The quantitative determination ranges and the detection limits (3σ) of the four TCs are 0.037–4.8 μg mL⁻¹ and 11.2 ng mL⁻¹ for DOTC, 0.041–5.2 μg mL⁻¹ and 12.4 ng mL⁻¹ for CTC, 0.050–4.8 μg mL⁻¹ and 15.1 ng mL⁻¹ for TC, and 0.088–5.0 μg mL⁻¹ and 26.3 ng mL⁻¹ for OTC, respectively.

A Highly Sensitive Spectrophotometric Assay of Bleomycins Based on the Fading Reaction of Some Halofluorescein Dyes

In weak acidic medium, anticancer antibiotics bleomycin A5 （BLMA5） and bleomycin A2 （BLMA2） can react with halofluorescein dyes such as erythrosin （Ery）, eosin Y （EY）, eosin B （EB） and rose bengal （RB） by virtue of electrostatic attraction and hydrophobic force to form the ion-association complexes, which can result in the fading reactions of four halofluorescein dyes. The maximum fading wavelengths of these four dyes were located at 527 nm for Ery, 515 nm for EY, 517 nm for EB and 546 nm for RB, respectively. The decrements of absorbance （AA） were directly proportional to the concentrations of bleomycin in a certain range. A new method for the determination of bleomycins anticancer drugs based on fading reactions of halofluorescein dyes has been developed. The method was not only highly sensitive but also simple and rapid. The molar absorptivities （ε） ranged from 1.5 × 10^5 to 7.5 × 10^5 L·mol^-1·cm^-1. It was applied to determination of the bleomycins in human serum, urine and rabbit serum samples. In this work, the spectral properties and the optimum reaction conditions were investigated. The structure of ion-association complexes and the reaction mechanism were discussed.     

Resonance Rayleigh scattering method for the determination of trace amounts of cadmium with iodide-basic triphenylmethane dye systems

In dilute phosphoric acid solution, cadmium (II) reacts with a large excess of I^– to form [CdI₄]^2– which reacts further with basic triphenylmethane dyes such as crystal violet (CV), ethyl violet (EV), methyl violet (MV), brilliant green (BG) or malachite green (MG) to form an ion-association complex. This results in a significant enhancement of resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) intensity and the appearance of new RRS spectra. The characteristics of RRS spectra of the ion-association complexes, the influencing factors and the optimum conditions of these reactions have been investigated. The intensity of RRS is directly proportional to the concentration of cadmium from ¶0 to 60 ng mL^–1 for EV and MV systems, 0 to 80 ng mL^–1 for CV system, and 0 to 100 ng mL^–1 for BG and MG systems. The methods exhibit high sensitivities and the detection limits for cadmium are between 0.35 and 2.00 ng mL^–1 depending on the different reaction systems. The new RRS method was applied to the direct determination of traces of cadmium in pure zinc and synthetic water samples.     

Resonance Rayleigh scattering for the determination of cationic surfactants with Eosin Y

Resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) of cationic surfactants–Eosin Y systems and their analytical application have been studied. In aqueous solution at pH 2～3, Eosin Y reacts with a monomer of cationic surfactants (CS), such as Zephiramine (Zeph), tetradecylpyridinium bromide (TPB), cetylpyridinium bromide (CPB), cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTMAB), to form an ion associate and a new RRS spectrum appears. The spectral characteristics of the five ion associates are similar and their maximum scattering wavelengths (λ_max) are all at 313 nm. The intensity of RRS at λ_max of the ion associate is directly proportional to the concentration of CS in the range of 0～3.0 μg/25 mL. The technique has high sensitivity for the determination of CS; their detection limit is between 5.57 ng/mL and 7.60 ng/mL depending on the CS. In this case, most metal and non-metal ions, NH₄ ⁺ and some anionic surfactants do not interfere, so that the method has a good selectivity. It can be applied to the determination of trace amounts of cationic surfactants in water samples.     

Absorption, fluorescence and resonance Rayleigh scattering spectra of hydrophobic hydrogen bonding of eosin Y/Triton X-100 nanoparticles and their analytical applications

In a weak acidic medium (pH 2.4–2.8), eosin Y molecules (H₂L) could replace water molecules to associate with Triton X-100 to form hydrophobic hydrogen bonding complexes. These complexes could further aggregate to form nanoparticles through the squeezing action of the water phase and Van Der Waals force, resulting in changes in the absorption spectrum and fluorescence quenching of EY as well as the significant enhancement of resonance Rayleigh scattering. This enables the sensitive determination of Triton X-100 using the fading spectrophotometry, fluorescence quenching method and RRS method. Among them, the RRS method shows the highest sensitivity with a detection limit of 20.6 ng mL^?1 for Triton X-100. The optimum experimental conditions and factors that affect the absorption, fluorescence and RRS spectra were tested. The effects of coexisting substances were investigated and the results showed good selectivity. Based on these results, new spectrophotometric methods, fluorescence quenching method and RRS method for the determination of Triton X-100, were established. The hydrogen bonding association of eosin Y with Triton X-100 and the formation of nanoparticles as well as their effects on related spectral characteristics were discussed utilizing infrared, transmission electron microscope technique and quantum chemical method.     

Cluster‐based molecular docking study for in silico identification of novel 6‐fluoroquinolones as potential inhibitors against Mycobacterium tuberculosis

A classical protein sequence alignment and homology modeling strategy were used for building three Mycobacterium tuberculosis‐DNA gyrase protein models using the available topoII‐DNA‐6FQ crystal structure complexes originating from different organisms. The recently determined M. tuberculosis‐DNA gyrase apoprotein structures and topoII‐DNA‐6FQ complexes were used for defining the 6‐fluoroquinolones (6‐FQs) binding pockets. The quality of the generated models was initially validated by docking of the cocrystallized ligands into their binding site, and subsequently by quantitative evaluation of their discriminatory performances (identification of active/inactive 6‐FQs) for a set of 145 6‐FQs with known biological activity values. The M. tuberculosis‐DNA gyrase model with the highest estimated discriminatory power was selected and used afterwards in an additional molecular docking experiment on a mixed combinatorial set of 427 drug‐like 6‐FQ analogs for which the biological activity values were predicted using a prebuilt counter‐propagation artificial neural network model. A novel three‐level Boolean‐based [T/F (true/false)] clustering algorithm was used to assess the generated binding poses: Level 1 (geometry properties assessment), Level 2 (score‐based clustering and selection of the (T)‐signed highly scored Level 1 poses), and Level 3 (activity‐based clustering and selection of the most “active” (T)‐signed Level 2 hits). The frequency analysis of occurrence of the fragments attached at R₁ and R₇ position of the (T)‐signed 6‐FQs selected in Level 3 revealed several novel attractive fragments and confirmed some previous findings. We believe that this methodology could be successfully used in establishing novel possible structure‐activity relationship recommendations in the 6‐FQs optimization, which could be of great importance in the current antimycobacterial hit‐to‐lead processes. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Probing the Coordination Environment of the Human Copper Chaperone HAH1: Characterization of HgII‐Bridged Homodimeric Species in Solution

Although metal ion homeostasis in cells is often mediated through metallochaperones, there are opportunities for toxic metals to be sequestered through the existing transport apparatus. Proper trafficking of Cu^I in human cells is partially achieved through complexation by HAH1, the human metallochaperone responsible for copper delivery to the Wilson and Menkes ATPase located in the trans‐Golgi apparatus. In addition to binding copper, HAH1 strongly complexes Hg^II, with the X‐ray structure of this complex previously described. It is important to clarify the solution behavior of these systems and, therefore, the binding of Hg^II to HAH1 was probed over the pH range 7.5 to 9.4 using ¹⁹⁹Hg NMR, ^199mHg PAC and UV–visible spectroscopies. The metal‐dependent protein association over this pH range was examined using analytical gel‐filtration. It can be concluded that at pH 7.5, Hg^II is bound to a monomeric HAH1 as a two coordinate, linear complex (HgS₂), like the Hg^II–Atx1 X‐ray structure (PDB ID: 1CC8). At pH 9.4, Hg^II promotes HAH1 association, leading to formation of HgS₃ and HgS₄ complexes, which are in exchange on the μs–ns time scale. Thus, structures that may represent central intermediates in the process of metal ion transfer, as well as their exchange kinetics have been characterized.     

Determination of Arsenic in Hair by Resonance Rayleigh Scattering Method with Iodine Green–Molybdate System

Abstract

A simple and fast resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) method for the determination of arsenic was developed. The method is based on the formation of ion-association complexes {(IG)₃·[As₂(Mo₂O₇)₁₂]H₅}_m of iodine green (IG) and heteropoly acid anion [As₂(Mo₂O₇)₁₂]^14? formed as As (V) reacts with molybdate in H₂SO₄ solution. The ion-association complexes can lead to distinct enhancement of RRS. The enhanced RRS intensity is proportional to the concentration of As (V) in the range of 0.008–0.40 µg ml^?1. The optimum conditions, the influence factors for the reaction, and the effects of coexisting substances have been investigated. The method has high sensitivity and good selectivity; the detection limit for As (V) (3 S ₀/S) is 1.50 ng ml^?1. The method can be applied to the determination of As (V) in hair samples. Furthermore, the mechanism of the reaction and the reasons for RRS enhancement is discussed.     

Electrochemical and Spectroscopic Studies on the Interaction of Gatifloxacin,Moxifloxacin and Sparfloxacin with DNA and Their Analytical Applications

The electrochemical oxidation of the three fluoroquinolone drugs FQs: gatifloxacin GTF, moxifloxacin MXF and sparfloxacin SPF, at the bare and DNA‐modified glassy carbon electrodes has been studied by voltammetric techniques. The three FQs showed one irreversible oxidation peak at potential range 0.85–0.91 V vs. Ag‐AgCl, in phosphate buffer of pH 7.0. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and UV‐absorption spectroscopic techniques were employed to probe the interaction between the FQs and calf thymus double stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (ds CT‐DNA). From electrochemical data, the binding constant between DNA and the gatifloxacin, moxifloxacin and sparfloxacin are calculated to be 3228, 2596 and 2857 M^?1 respectively. Based on electrochemical and spectroscopic results, the mode of binding of fluoroquinolone to DNA through combined effect of intercalation and electrostatic interaction was concluded. A detection scheme based on a preconcentration and differential pulse voltammetric (DPV) determination at dsDNA modified glassy carbon electrode (DNA/GCE) was proposed for the trace determination of the studied analytes. The developed method was successfully applied to the determination of the FQs in pharmaceutical formulations.     

Metal compound-mediated hydrolytic cleavage of oxidized insulin B chain:Regioselectivity and influence of peptide secondary structure

The interaction of oxidized insulin B chain(B)with cis-[Pd-(en)Cl2](en=ethylenediamine),cis-[Pd-(dtco-3-OH)Cl2](dtco-3-OH=dithiacyclooctan-3-ol)and CuCl2 was studied by electrospray inass spectrometry.It is discovered that the binding of Pd(Ⅱ)complexes and the sites of cleavage are highly dependent on the secondary structure and local environment of B.The hydrolytic cleavage of denatured B by Pd(Ⅱ)complexes was monitored by HPLC.The reaction is regioselective and follows first order kinetics with half-life of 4.8 days at 40℃.Two amide bonds,i.e.at Leu6-Cys7 and at Gly8-Ser9,which are close to the two potential Pd(Ⅱ)binding sites His5 and His10,are selectively cleaved.In the case of Cu(Ⅱ)ion as promoter,only one cleavage site was observed which is located at Gly8-Ser9 bond.These results provide improved understanding on the design of artificial metallopeptidase.     

Resonance Rayleigh scattering spectra of ion-association nanoparticles of [Co(4-[(5-Chloro-2-pyridyl) azo]-1, 3-diaminobenzene)2]-sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate system and its analytical application

In pH 1.8-3.0 Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer solution, cobalt (II) reacts with 4-[(5-Chloro-2-pyridyl) azo]-1, 3-diaminobenzene (5-Cl-PADAB, L) to form a cationic chelate [CoL₂]²⁺. When interacting with anionic surfactants (AS) such as sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) or sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SLS), the chelate can only react with SDBS to form ternary ion-association complexes ([CoL₂][SDBS]₂). By virtue of the extrusion action of water and Van der Waals force, the hydrophobic ion-association complexes draw close to each other and further aggregate to form {[CoL₂][SDBS]₂}_n nanoparticles with an average diameter of 30 nm. As a result, resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) is enhanced greatly and new RRS spectra appear. Under the same conditions, both SDS and SLS exhibit no similar reactions and do not result in obvious change of RRS. Therefore, SDBS can be determined selectively by RRS method in the presence of SDS or SLS. The wavelength of 516 nm was chosen as a detection wavelength, the linear range and the detection limit (3σ) are 0.05-6.0 μg mL⁻¹ and 0.015 μg mL⁻¹ for the determination of SDBS, respectively. The characteristics of RRS spectra of the [CoL₂]²⁺-SDBS system, the optimum conditions of the reaction and the influencing factors have been investigated. The effects of coexisting substances have been examined too, indicating a good selectivity of the method for the determination of SDBS. The method can be used for the determination of SDBS in waste water and river water samples, and the results are satisfactory compared with those of standard samples of SDBS. Based on the formation of {[CoL₂][SDBS]₂}_n nanoparticles, a sensitive, simple and rapid method has been developed for the determination of SDBS in environmental water samples using a RRS technique. Moreover, the reaction mechanism was discussed.     

A Highly Selective and Turn‐on Fluorescent Probe for Fe3+ Ion Based on Perylene Tetracarboxylic Diimide

We have demonstrated a turn‐on fluorescent sensor 6 for detection of Fe³⁺ based on photo‐induced electron transfer (PET) mechanism. The probe comprises a perylene tetracarboxylic diimide (PDI) fluorophore and two bis((1,2,3‐triazol‐4‐yl)methyl)amine (DTA) moieties as the metal ion receptors. It exhibits high selectivity toward Fe³⁺ over various other metal ions in CH₃CN/H₂O (1:1, V/V). The binding stoichiometry for 6 ‐Fe³⁺ complexes has been determined to be 1:2 by a Job plot of fluorescence. The association constant between 6 and Fe³⁺ was estimated to be 1.04×10¹⁰ (mol/L)^?2 by Benesi‐Hildebrand equation.     

Chemical characterization of complexation behavior of pertechnetate with cysteine

The labeling behavior of cysteine with⁹⁹TcO ₄ ^– ion and/or^99mTcO ₄ ^– ion at different cysteine concentrations reductant and pH values has been studied by chromatography, and the labeling yield was calculated. Three major Tc-complexes, yellow, reddish brown and green can be separated by gel filtration chromatography (GFC). Thin layer chromatography (TLC), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and ion-exchange chromatography (IC) were used to separate the complexes collected from GFC. The TLC, HPLC data show the pertechnetate accompanied with a yellow complex; the green and purple complex contain more than two complexes. Electrophoresis and IC data show that the complexes carry a negative charge. The conductivity, UV-VIS, flow beta-detector with HPLC and autoradiography are also applied to analyze complex formation.     

Preparation of magnetic poly(vinylimidazole‐co‐divinylbenzene) nanoparticles and their application in the trace analysis of fluoroquinolones in environmental water samples

Nanosized spherical magnetic poly(vinylimidazole‐co‐divinylbenzene) particles were synthesized and used as a sorbent for the enrichment of trace fluoroquinolones (FQs) from environmental water samples. A suspension polymerization procedure was used to prepare the sorbent. The magnetic sorbent was characterized by SEM, transmission electron microscopy, elemental analysis, and FTIR spectroscopy. Analysis of enrofloxacin, marbofloxacin, fleroxacin, lomefloxacin, and sparfloxacin in environmental water samples by the combination of the magnetic sorbent and HPLC with diode array detection was selected as a paradigm for the practical application of the new adsorbent. Several extraction conditions, including desorption solvent, extraction and desorption time, pH value, and ionic strength in sample matrix, were optimized. Results showed that the new sorbent had high affinity for FQs and could be used to extract them effectively. Under the optimum conditions, low detection (S/N = 3) and quantification (S/N = 10) limits were achieved for the target analytes, within the ranges of 0.20–1.46 and 0.68–4.84 μg/L, respectively. Method repeatability was achieved in terms of intra‐ and interday precisions, indicated by the RSDs, which were both <10.0%. The method also showed good linearity, simplicity, practicality, and environmental friendliness for the extraction of FQs. Finally, the developed method was successfully applied to the determination of FQs in lake water, surface water, and reservoir water samples. Acceptable recoveries of spiked target compounds in these water samples were in the range of 52.1–104.5%.     

Study on the absorption and fluorescence and resonance Rayleigh scattering spectra of Cu (II)-fluoroquinolone chelates with erythrosine and their applications

In pH 4.2-5.0 Britton-Robinson buffer solution medium, fluoroquinolone antibiotics (FLQs), such as ciprofloxacin (CIP), norfloxacin (NOR), ofloxacin (OF), levofloxacin (LEV), lomefloxacin (LOM), and sparfloxacin (SPA), react with Cu (II) to form chelate cations, which further bind with erythrosine to form the ion association complexes. They can result in the changes of the absorption spectra. Simultane- ously, erythrosine fades obviously and the maximum fading wavelength is located at 526 nm. The fad- ing reactions have high sensitivities. Thus, new spectrophotometries of determination for these drugs are developed. The ion-association reactions result in the quenching of fluorescence, which also have high sensitivities. The detection limits for six antibiotics are in the range of 7.1-12.2 μg·L?1. Furthermore, the reactions can result in the enhancement of resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS). The maximum scattering peaks of six ion-association complexes are located at 566 nm, and there are two small RRS peaks at 333 nm and 287 nm. The detection limits for fluoroquinolone antibiotics are in the range of 1.70 -3.10 μg·L?1 for RRS method. Among the above three methods, the RRS method has the highest sen- sitivity. In this work, we investigated the spectral characteristics of the absorption, fluorescence and RRS, the optimum conditions of the reactions, and the properties of the analytical chemistry. In addi- tion, the mechanism of reactions were discussed by density function theory (DFT) and AM1 methods.
