Monitoring of water quality in South Paris district by clustering and SIMCA classification

With the aim of obtaining a monitoring tool to assess the quality of water, a multivariate statistical procedure based on cluster analysis (CA) coupled with soft independent modelling class analogy (SIMCA) algorithm, providing an effective classification method, is proposed. The experimental data set, carried out throughout the year 2004, was composed of analytical parameters from 68 water sources in a vast southwest area of Paris. Nine variables carrying the most useful information were selected and investigated (nitrate, sulphate, chloride, turbidity, conductivity, hardness, alkalinity, coliforms and Escherichia coli). Principal component analysis provided considerable data reduction, gathering in the first two principal components the majority of information representing about 92.2% of the total variance. CA grouped samples belonging to different sites, distinctly correlating them with chemical variables, and a classification model was built by SIMCA. This model was optimised and validated and then applied to a new data matrix, consisting of the parameters measured during the year 2005 from the same objects, providing a fast and accurate classification of all the samples. The most of the examined sources appeared unchanged during the 2-year period, but five sources resulted distributed in different classes, due to statistical significant changes of some characteristic analytical parameters.     

Analysis of 14 terpenoids and sterols and variety discrimination of Codonopsis Radix using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry

Recently, we confirmed that the 95% ethanol-extracted fraction of Codonopsis Radix, which contains several triterpenoids and sterols, possesses pharmacological activities. However, due to the low content and diverse types of triterpenoids and sterols, their similar structures, lack of ultraviolet absorption, and difficulty in obtaining controls, few studies have so far assessed their contents in Codonopsis Radix. We accordingly constructed an ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry technique for the simultaneous quantitative determination of 14 terpenoids and sterols. Separation was performed on the Waters Acquity UPLC HSS T3 C₁₈ column (100 × 2.1 mm, 1.8 μm) with 0.1% formic acid (A) and 0.1% formic acid in methanol (B) as mobile phase under gradient elution. The determination coefficients for each of the matrix calibration curves were ≥0.9925. The average recovery ranged from 81.25% to 118.05%, with relative standard deviations of <4%. The contents of 14 components in 23 batches were quantified and further analyzed through chemometrics. Linear discriminant analysis can distinguish sample varieties. The quantitative analysis method can accurately determine the contents of 14 components and thereby provide the chemical basis for the quality control of Codonopsis Radix. It also could be a valuable approach for the classification of different Codonopsis Radix varieties.     

Quality assessment of Radix Codonopsis by quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance

Radix Codonopsis (Dangshen) is a famous traditional Chinese medicine and has long been used for replenishing energy deficiency, strengthening the immune system, lowering blood pressure and improving appetite in China, Japan and Korea. A highly specific quantification method using ¹H NMR has been developed for the simultaneous determination of novel quaternary ammonium alkaloids codotubulosine A and B, adenosine and 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural in Radix Codonopsis materials Codonopsis pilosula, C. pilosula var. modesta, C. tangshen, C. tubulosa, C. subglobosa, C. clematidea, C. lanceolota and Campanumoea javanica collected from different regions of China and Taiwan. A solid-phase extraction with C-18 cartridge followed by elution with water can easily remove sugars the major components that may affect the determination of target constituents. In the ¹H NMR spectrum, the signals of N-CH₃ of codotubulosine A (δ 2.75) and B (δ 2.83), H-8 of adenosine (δ 8.15), and CHO signal of 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural (δ 9.49) are well separated from other signals in [²H₄]methanol. The quantity of the compounds was calculated by the relative ratio of the integral values of the target peaks of each compound to the known amount of internal standard pyrazine. The described NMR method is found to be relatively simple, specific, precise and accurate for the quality control of Radix Codonopsis herbs and no reference compounds are required for calibration curves, in comparison to conventional HPLC methods, for instance.

Decontamination of organochlorine pesticides in Radix codonopsis by supercritical fluid extractions and determination by gas chromatography

A method involving depuration of 12 organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) from Radix codonopsis was developed using supercritical fluid extraction (SFE). The pesticides investigated in the study included alpha-, beta-, gamma- and delta-benzene hexachloride, PCNB (pentachloro-nitrobenzene), PCA (pentachloroaniline), HEPT (heptachlor), MPCPS (methyl-pentachlorophenyl sulfide), pp'-DDE [1,1-dichloro-2, 2-bis(p-chlorophenyl) ethylene], op'-DDT [1,1,1-trichloro-2-(o-chlorophenyl)-2-(p-chlorophenyl)ethane], pp'-DDD [1,1-dichloro-2-2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethane] and pp'-DDT [1,1,1-trichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethane]. A series of experiments was conducted to optimize the final extraction conditions as follows: pure CO2, extraction pressure 15 MPa, extraction temperature 60 degrees C, extraction time 20 min and flow rate 55 mL/h. A GC method with electron capture detection was employed for the determination of the OCPs in Radix codonopsis. An HPLC method was developed for the quantitative determination of active constituents. SFE was used to remove the organochlorine pesticide from Radix codonopsis. The results showed that at least 93.5% of the organochlorine pesticide residues in the herb sample were removed by SPE, while 95.0% of the active constituent marker (atractylenoide III) remained.     

Evaluation of surfactant‐assisted pressurized hot water extraction for marker compounds in Radix Codonopsis pilosula using liquid chromatography and liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry

In the move towards the elimination of organic solvents in the extraction process in botanicals, a new method combining surfactant and pressurized hot water extraction (PWHE) with an applied temperature below the boiling point and lower pressure from 10 to 20 bar was developed for the analysis of marker compounds that are reasonably hydrophobic such as tetradeca‐4E,12E‐diene‐8,10‐diyne‐1,6,7‐triol and tetradeca‐4E,12E‐diene‐8,10‐diyne‐1,6,7‐triol‐O‐β‐D‐glucoside in Radix Codonopsis pilosula (DangShen). Because reference substances for the proposed botanicals were not available, a method was developed to isolate the marker compounds in Radix Codonopsis pilosula. Other than surfactant‐assisted PHWE, the marker compounds present in Radix Codonopsis pilosula were extracted using pressurized liquid extraction (PLE) with methanol and PHWE with a mixture of water/ethanol (80:20). The extracts were analyzed using liquid chromatography and liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. With surfactant‐assisted PHWE, the effects of different added surfactants such as sodium dodecyl sulfate and Triton X‐100 was studied. Surfactant assisted PHWE with Triton X‐100 proved to be at least equivalent or better compared to Soxhlet extraction in terms of quantitative analysis of marker compounds in Radix Codonopsis pilosula. The method precision was less than 8% (RSD, n = 6). The presence of surfactants in PHWE was found to enhance the solubility of target compounds naturally occurring in medicinal plants.     

Identification of carbonyl species of weathered LDPE films by curve fitting and derivative analysis of IR spectra

We describe the examination of the weathering degradation of LDPE (low density polyethylene - locally produced B24/2 and imported LDPE 2100T), supplied by two different manufacturers and processed into films for greenhouse coverings, over several months in a sub-Saharan region of Algeria. The three IR regions most affected by weathering degradation are 800–1100 cm⁻¹, 1680–1800 cm⁻¹ and 3300–3600 cm⁻¹. The IR spectral region most affected by the aging process is the carbonyl region. Curve fitting combined with derivative spectroscopy revealed that the composite carbonyl band encompasses more than 10 different oxidation products. The most significant among these in terms of absorbance are carboxylic acids, ketones, aldehydes and esters. The oxidation kinetics with respect to the type of LDPE film shows that B24/2 LDPE undergoes less oxidization than LDPE 2100 T. Calculating the concentrations of different carbonyl species compared to their respective absorbances indicates that the aldehydes are the predominant component of the final compound, rather than the carboxylic acids.
