Determination of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole in river water by HPLC

Summary A method is proposed for the determination of 2-mercaptobenzothiazole in river waters using multi-electrode electrochemical detection HPLC. 2-mercaptobenzothiazole determination is unsatisfactory by gas chromatography as it degrades readily on the column. Multielectrode electrochemical detection HPLC combines sensitivity and the ability to screen out other electrochemically active species. The development work leading up to the proposed method is discussed. The method has a limit of detection of 0.798gl^–1 2-mercaptobenzothiazole and a total standard deviation of 2.06gl^–1 2-mercaptobenzothiazole at a concentration of 7.97gl^–1 2-mercaptobenzothiazole in river water.

Determination of methomyl and methomyl-oxime in fruit crops and water by HPLC

Summary A simple and specific quantitative HPLC method for the analysis of methomyl residues in fruit crops and water is described. The method is based on simple extraction steps, high-performance liquid chromatographic separation using a reversed phase column (RP-C₁₈) and UV detection. With this analytical system, methomyl residues at 1 ng/g level can be detected. This approach allows also the simultaneous determination of methomyl and its degradation product methomyl-oxime. This is possible either by using the UV detector at 233 nm or by using both the UV- and the electrochemical detectors in series. Using this combined detection system, it was possible to determine methomyl at the 1 ng/ml level and methomyl-oxime at the 100 pg/ml level in water. Recovery rate in the range of 0.01–1 g/g is 101.4±6% in fruit crops (apples) and 93.7±4% in water.

Bestimmung von Methomyl und Methomyl-oxim in Obst und Wasser mit Hilfe der HPLC

Zusammenfassung Es wird eine hochleistungs-flüssigkeits-chromatographische Methode zur quantitativen Bestimmung der Methomylrückstände in Obst und Wasser beschrieben, mit der noch Rückstandsmengen von 1 ng/g (ppb) erfaßbar sind. Das Verfahren besteht aus einem Extraktionsschritt, Aufreinigungsschritt, der Trennung der Rückstände auf einer Umkehrphase (RP-C₁₈) und der UV-Detektion. Die Methode ermöglicht die gleichzeitige Bestimmung von Methomyl und seinem Hydrolyseprodukt (Methomyl-oxim) durch die Anwendung des UV-Detektors allein oder durch zusätzliche elektrochemische Detektion. Durch diese Schaltanordnung wurden Konzentrationen von 1 ng/ml Methomyl und 100 pg/ml (ppt) Methomyl-oxim in Wasser bestimmt. Die Methode gestattet im Bereich von 0,01–1 g/g eine Wiederfindungsrate von 101,4±6% in Obst (Äpfel) und 93,7±4% in Wasser.

     

Determination of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons in water by flotation enrichment and HPLC

A method of concentration and determination of several polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water by flotation enrichment and HPLC is described. Triton X-100 was used as the foaming agent to extract the PAHs from water by passage of nitrogen. Reversed-phase liquid chromatography with coupled fluorescence detection was applied to separate and determine these PAHs. Various factors which may affect the recovery of PAHs from water, including pH, temperature and the concentration of Triton X-100 added, are discussed. This simplified method of concentrating PAHs from water has been applied to determine PAHs in water from Lake Erie. The method has practical value for the determination of PAHs in large volumes of water.     

Determination of anti-inflammatory drugs and estrogens in water by HPLC with UV detection

An analytical method based on LC and UV detection has been developed for the determination of anti-inflammatory compounds and estrogens in water samples. The drugs investigated were diclofenac, ketoprofen, ibuprofen, naproxen, clofibric acid, estriol, 17beta-estradiol, estrone and ethynylestradiol. The detection limits were in the range of 6-74 microg/L and 0.041 -0.16 mg/L for acidic pharmaceuticals and estrogens, respectively, using narrow-bore C18 analytical column. Analyte enrichment from water samples was achieved by SPE procedure using polymeric Strata-X cartridges. Average recoveries obtained from 2.5 L of surface water sample were in the range of 77-98%.     

Determination of thiolcarbamate herbicides in natural water by HPLC with spectrophotometric detection

Methanol-water (80:20) containing 0.01 mol/l ammonium acetate buffer pH 5.0 was used as mobile phase. The column was thermostated at 35°C. Seppak C18 cartridges were used for sample preparation and preconcentration. The minimum detectable concentration for samples of 100 ml was 0.5 ng/ml.     

Determination of triazine-herbicides in drinking water by a HPLC column switching technique

Summary A semi-automatic coupled-column HPLC-method for the rapid determination of desethylatrazine, simazine, atrazine and terbuthylazine in drinking water was developed. Tenax TA was used as precolumn packing material. 100 ml of the water sample are percolated through the precolumn, on which the analytes are preconcentrated and prefractionated. After the HPLC-integrated sample processing the triazines are transferred to the series-connected analytical column, where separation and detection takes place. The method leads to detection limits between 15 and 32 ng/l. The recovery rates range from 46 to 96% in drinking water.Dedicated to Professor Dr. Wilhelm Fresenius on the occasion of his 80th birthday     

Determination of low molecular weight aliphatic amines by HPLC in environmental water samples

A high resolution liquid chromatographic method is described for determination of low molecular weight (LMW) aliphatic amines in environmental waters. The analytes after isolation are derivatized by fluram and separated with isocratic elution on octyl (C₈) column, followed by fluorimetric detection in 395/495 nm. Different isolation procedures such as octadecylsilane (ODS) and strong cation exchanger (SCX) solid phase extraction (SPE) cartridges and Amberlite CG-120 resin were evaluated. The quantitative characteristics such as recovery, linear dynamic range, correlation coefficient, limit of detection (LOD), and relative standard deviation (RSD) are presented. Using this method, aliphatic amines were analyzed in rain and tap water as well as in waste water.     

Determination of simazine in water samples by HPLC after preconcentration with diatomaceous earth

A sensitive and selective batch adsorption method is proposed for the preconcentration and determination of simazine. Simazine was preconcentrated on diatomaceous earth as an adsorbent and then determined by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Several parameters on the recovery of the analyte were investigated. The experimental results showed that it was possible to obtain quantitative analysis when the solution pH was 2 using 100 mL of validation solution containing 1.5 μg of simazine and 5 mL of ethanol as an eluent. Recovery of simazine was 89.0 ± 1.6% with a relative standard deviation for seven determinations of 1.5% under optimum conditions. The maximum preconcentration factor was 100 for simazine when 500 mL of sample solution volume was used. The linear range of calibration curve was 1-200 ng mL⁻¹ with a correlation coefficient of 0.996 and the detection limit (3S/N) was 0.3 ng mL⁻¹. The capacity of the adsorbent was also examined and found to be 1.1 mg g⁻¹ for simazine. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of simazine in river water with high precision and accuracy.     

Determination of hydroxy-s-triazines in water using HPLC or GC-MS

Two methods are described for the routine determination of triazine degradation products in water. After solid phase extraction by means of RP-C₁₈ cartridges, the separation and detection were carried out using either HPLC (for hydroxy-atrazine [OHA], hydroxy-simazine [OHS], hydroxy-propazine [OHP], hydroxy-terbutylazine [OHT] and hydroxy-desethylatrazine [OHDEA]) or GC-MS (only for OHA, OHS, OHP and OHT after methylation with diazomethane). The HPLC set-up is described for detecting the hydroxy-triazines, including hydroxy-desisopropylatrazine (OHDIA), hydroxy-desethyldesisopropylatrazine (OHDEDIA) and cyanuric acid (CA). The average recoveries at concentration levels between 50 ng/L and 1 g/L ranged from 35% to 43% for GC-MS (n=5) and from 53% to 75% for HPLC (n=5) with the exception of hydroxy-desethylatrazine which has been recovered with only 21%. Hydroxy-desisopropylatrazine, hydroxy-desethyldesisopropylatrazine and cyanuric acid could not be enriched on RPC₁₈. The determination limit of the investigated compounds has to be set between 90 and 100 ng/L for both methods for OHS, OHA, OHP and OHT.
