Selective determination of arsenite by flow injection spectrophotometry

This paper describes the application of the well-known Molybdenum Blue method for selective determination of arsenite in a flow injection system. Selectivity is achieved by on-line separation of the main interferents phosphate, arsenate and silicate using a strong anion-exchange microcolumn located in the aspiration line of injection valve. Arsenite passing through the microcolumn unretained is determined using Molybdenum Blue method following in-line oxidation to arsenate by permanganate. A thorough investigation of optimal experimental conditions for both, the separation of interferents and sensitive detection of arsenite is presented. The method developed permits arsenite to be determined in the concentration range 5-500 microg/l with high precision and reliability. A sample throughput of 20 hr(-1) is achieved. Phosphate, arsenate and silicate do not interfere at concentration levels significantly higher than that of arsenite. The application to real water samples reveals excellent recovery of spiked samples and the absence of matrix interferences.     

Selective determination of gallium by flow injection fluorimetry

Gallium can be determined fluorunetrically, with linear response in the range 2.2 × 10^-5 M–1.08 × 10^-4 M, by means of chelate formation with lumogallion ; fluorescence is enhanced by mixing with a polyethylene glycol monolauryl ether solution. Up to 10-fold molar amounts of aluminum can be tolerated, because of the slow formation rate of the aluminum—lumogallion chelate.     

The determination of trace lead in Chinese medicinal herbs by flow injection analysis in polyethyleneglycol medium

In this work, a new flow injection analysis (FIA) for the determination of Pb(2+) in Chinese medicinal herbs was developed. In the buffer solution of borax-NaOH (pH 10.5), Pb(2+) reacted with 2-[(5-bromo-2-pyridyl)-azo]-5-(diethyl-amino)phenol (5-Br-PADAP) to form a complex. The experimental results showed that the sensitivity was enhanced in the presence of polyethyleneglycol-800 (PG-800). The main factors affecting the determination were investigated in detail. Under the optimum conditions, the linear range and detection limit is 0.0-0.3microg/mL and 1.5ng/mL (correlation coefficient r=0.9996), respectively. The linear regression equation is A=-0.005+0.60c (microg/mL). The sample throughout is 10h(-1). Foreign substrates effects were also investigated. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the determination of lead in reference material, goldthread and lepidium seed.     

Spectrofluorimetric kinetic determination of selenium (IV) by flow injection analysis in cationic micellar medium

A sensitive catalytic kinetic spectrofluorimetric method for determining ng ml(-1) of selenium by flow injection analysis has been developed. The method, based on the catalytic effect of Se (IV) on the reduction of resorufin by sulphide, in the presence of cetylpyridinium chloride, is monitored spectrofluorimetrically (lambda(ex)=480 nm; lambda(em)=583 nm). The linearity range of the calibration graph is dependent on the concentration of sulphide. The variables affecting the rate of the reaction were investigated. The method is simple, rapid, precise, sensitive, and widely applicable. The limit of detection is 1 ng ml(-1) Se (IV), and the calibration range is 5-1000 ng ml(-1). Sampling rate is 60 samples h(-1), and the relative standard deviation of 12 determinations of 100 ng ml(-1) Se was 0.76%. The determination of Se (IV) in the presence of Se (VI) and total selenium is described. The method was applied to the determination of Se in selenium tablets, and several synthetic samples.

The application of strongly reducing agents in flow injection analysis : Part 5. Chromium(II) and vanadium(II) in acidic medium

Chromium(II) and vanadium(II) in acidic medium are applied as powerful reducing agents in flow injection analysis. Detection is done amperometrically. For the determination of nitrite with chromium(II), the limit of determination is 5 × 10^?6 mol l^?1 with a linear range up to 7.5 × 10^?5 mol l^?1, similar to the case of uranium(III). Vanadium(II) is less suitable for the determination of nitrite. Nitrate, hydroxylamine and hydrazine could not be determined with these reagents.     

Spectrophotometric determination of copper as a dithiocarbamate by flow injection analysis

Copper(II) ions (1–20 mg l^?1) are determined at 385 nm by injection into an aqueous carrier solution containing EDTA (0.05 M), carbon disulphide (0.03%) and diethanolamine (0.1%) in aqueous ammonia solution (0.5%) adjusted to pH 8.0. Chromium(VI) and, to a minor extent, iron(III) interfere. In the absence of EDTA, cobalt, iron(II), nickel, and manganese ions interfere but the sensitivity to copper is higher.     

Selective determination of amino acids using flow injection analysis coupled with chemiluminescence detection

The determination of the amino acids proline, histidine, tyrosine, arginine, phenylalanine and tryptophan using flow injection analysis (FIA) with chemiluminescence detection is described. Proline was the only amino acid to exhibit chemiluminescence with the tris(2,2-bipyridyl)ruthenium(III) reaction at pH 10. While, histidine was found to selectively enhance the reaction of luminol with Mn(II) salts in a basic medium. Acidic potassium permanganate chemiluminescence was able to selectively determine tyrosine at pH 6.75. Low pressure separations using a C18 guard column allowed the simultaneous determination of tyrosine and tryptophan or phenylalanine and tryptophan with acidic potassium permanganate and copper(II)-amino acid-hydrogen peroxide chemiluminescence, respectively. Precision for each method was less than 3.9% (R.S.D.) for five replicates of a standard (1×10⁻⁵ M) and the detection limits ranged between 4×10⁻⁹ and 7×10⁻⁶ M. Preliminary investigations revealed that the methodology developed was able to selectively determine the individual amino acids in an equimolar mixture of the 20 naturally occurring amino acids.

Typical relative standard deviations of 0.5% are obtained with 10-μ1 injection volumes. Results obtained by flow injection analysis are similar to those obtained with the AutoAnalyzer technique.

A simple and sensitive flow injection analysis-atomic absorption spectrometric procedure is described for the determination of cobalt. The method is based upon on-line preconcentration of cobalt on a microcolumn of 2-nitroso-1-naphthol immobilized on surfactant coated alumina.

The analytical figures of merit for the determination of cobalt are as follows: detection limit (3 S), 0.02 ng ml⁻¹; precision (RSD), 2.8% for 20 ng ml⁻¹ and 1.7% for 70 ng ml⁻¹ of cobalt; enrichment factor, 125 (using 25 ml of sample). The method has been applied to the determination of cobalt in water samples, vitamin B₁₂ and B-complex ampoules and accuracy was assessed through recovery experiment and independent analysis by furnace AAS.

The determination of bromide in natural waters by flow injection analysis

Bromide can occur in well waters as a result of sea water intrusion. The phenol red method is adapted to a flow-injection system and interferences are studied by using a two-channel valve. Standards are injected from one loop of the valve while the possible interferent is injected from the other loop; this provides a fast means of evaluating interferences. Ammonia, cyanide and humic substances interfere. Bromide can be determined down to 2 μM at a rate of 80 samples per hour
