Determination of various alcohols based on a new immobilized enzyme fluorescence capillary analysis

A novel method for the determination of ethanol in tequila based on the immobilized enzyme fluorescence capillary analysis (IE-EFCA) has been proposed. Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) was immobilized in inner surface of a capillary and an immobilized enzyme capillary bioreactor (IE-ECBR) was formed. After nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) as an oxidizer is mixed with alcohol sample solution, it was sucked into the IE-ECBR. The fluorescence intensity of the mixed solution in the IE-ECBR was detected at λ_ex = 350 nm and λ_em = 459 nm. The experimental conditions are as follows: The reaction time is 20 min; temperature is 40 °C; the concentrations of phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.5) and NAD⁺ are 0.1 mol L⁻¹ and 5 mmol L⁻¹, respectively; immobilization concentration of ADH is 10 U L⁻¹. The determination range of ethanol is 2.0-15.0 g L⁻¹ (F = 10.44C + 6.6002, r > 0.9958); its detection limit is 1.11 g L⁻¹; and relative standard deviation is 1.9%. IE-EFCA method is applicable for the determination of the samples containing alcohol in medicine, industry and environment.

Photosensitization and photoprotection properties of nicotinic acid derivatives

The photosensitizing action of nicotinic acid, nicotinamide, and nicotinehydroxymethylamide on the photooxidation of glycyltryptophan (Gly-Trp) in an aqueous solution using UV light (240–410 nm) was found. The photooxidation was monitored by measuring chemiluminescence (CL) resulting from the decay of one of the oxidation products, dioxethane. The photosensitizing action decreases in the following sequence: nicotinamide > nicotine-hydroxymethylamide > nicotinic acid. The addition of benzoquinone (0.01 mmol L⁻¹) results in a substantial decrease in the yield of sensitized CL, which indicates that the superoxide radical anion participates in the photooxidation.

Solid-phase fluorescence spectroscopy for the determination of acetylsalicylic acid in powdered pharmaceutical samples

A rapid, simple and rugged procedure without requiring any prior sample treatment was developed for the determination of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) in tablets formulations by solid-phase fluorescence spectroscopy. The method was carried out on powdered samples, consisting of an active substance dispersed in lactose, maize starch, talc and magnesium stearate. Previous knowledge of the sample bulk composition is needed for proper application of the method. Wavelengths for maximum excitation and emission were 288 and 318 nm, respectively, and the fluorescence intensity was linear with ASA concentration within the 50-170 mg g⁻¹ range. Detection and quantification limits were 2.2 and 7.3 mg g⁻¹, and the analytical frequency was 200 h⁻¹. For a typical sample, the relative standard deviation of results was estimated as 2.3% (n = 10). Accuracy was assessed by comparing the analytical results obtained with the proposed method with those related to a reference method recommended by British Pharmacopoeia: no differences between the methods were found at the 95% confidence level.     

Enzyme co-immobilization for the sequential determination of lactic acid and glucose in serum

An enzymatic method for the sequential determination of lactic acid and glucose is proposed. Sample matrix effects are overcome by using an internally coupled valve system. The problem arising from the dissimilar concentrations of the two analytes commonly occurring in serum is solved by applying the scale-expansion technique with a diode-array spectrophotometer. The determination ranges are 10–400 and 2–100 μg ml^?1 for lactic acid and glucose, respectively (r.s.d. 1.63 and 2.30%; n=11). Mixtures of these compounds in ratios up to 1:10 can be readily resolved, which allows their determination in serum with good results.     

Manganese Oxide Nanoparticles/Reduced Graphene Oxide as Novel Electrochemical Platform for Immobilization of FAD and its Application as Highly Sensitive Persulfate Sensor

In this study, manganese oxide nanoparticles/reduced graphene oxide(MnOxNPs/rGO) was used as support for strong immobilization of flavin adenine dinucleotide(FAD). A thin film of rGO cast on the electrode surface, followed by performing electrodeposition of MnOxNPs at applied constant potential of +1.4 V vs. Ag/AgCl for 200 s. Finally, FAD was electrodeposited onto the rGO/MnOxNPs film by potential cycling between 1.0 to ?1.0 V in solution containing 1 mg ml^?1 FAD. Electrochemical properties and catalytic activity of GCE/rGO‐MnOxNPs/FAD toward persulfate (S₂O₈^2?) reduction was investigated. Under optimized condition, the concentration calibration range, detection limit, and sensitivity were 0.1 μM–2 mM, 90 nM and 125.8 nA/μM, respectively, using hydrodynamic amperometry technique.

Tear analysis of ascorbic acid,uric acid and malondialdehyde with capillary electrophoresis

Tears have a significant role in antioxidant defense in ocular tissues and since their collection is quick and noninvasive, their analysis would facilitate monitoring of pathophysiological changes. However, their low volume and low content of antioxidants makes analysis difficult; methods of high sensitivity are needed. In this paper, we present a method for tear analysis of two antioxidant molecules (ascorbic and uric acid) and of a lipid peroxidation indicator (malondialdehyde) with capillary electrophoresis. Tears were collected with Schirmer strips, extracted with a low‐pH phosphate buffer, centrifuged through membrane filters and an antioxidant was added. They were stable at ?70°C for 15 days. After pilot experiments, optimum electrophoretic separation was achieved in a 25 mm borate buffer, pH 10.0, containing 100 mm sodium dodecyl sulfate at 25°C and 20 kV. The developed method has good repeatability (<5% RSD), precision (<15% relative error values) and high sensitivity (LLOQ values of 20, 2.3 and 2.5 μM for ascorbate, urate and malondialdehyde, respectively). It was applied to the analysis of tears from healthy individuals and the antioxidant levels are in agreement with those obtained with other techniques. This method might serve as a tool to clarify the role of endogenous antioxidants in the pathophysiology of ocular diseases. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

A sequential injection system for indirect spectrophotometric determination of lactic acid in yogurt and fermented mash samples

A suitable non-enzymatic method is presented as an alternative to the lactic acid determination in yogurt and fermented mash samples. The oxidative conversion of lactic acid by Ce⁴⁺ to CO₂ was performed in a sequential injection system with a heating coil set at 45 °C. A gas diffusion unit was coupled to the flow system for promoting the permeation of CO₂, which was collected into a bromothymol blue solution (pH 8.4), used as indicator solution for the spectrophotometric determination (619 nm). Simplicity in operation, low reagent consumption, low cost and ruggedness are some remarkable characteristics of the proposed system. Base line drift was < 0.005 h^− 1. A linear range from 20.0 to 100.0 mg L^− 1 lactic acid was obtained (r² = 0.998), and the detection and quantification limits were estimated as 0.158 mg L^− 1 and 1.6 mg L^− 1, respectively. The sampling rate was 22 h^− 1, with a consumption of 0.04 g Ce⁴⁺ per determination. Interferences of matrix components were not detected. Samples of yogurt and sugar cane fermented mash products were analyzed, and no significant difference at 95% confidence level was observed when comparing the proposed method with HPLC analysis.     

Application of flow-injection analysis in the on-line monitoring of sugars,lactic acid,protein and biomass during lactic acid fermentations

A laboratory system for the on-line monitoring of important lactic acid fermentation variables is described. The system contains flow-injection analysers for glucose, lactose, galactose, lactate and protein and a continuous-flow analyser for the biomass concentration. The sugar and lactate analysers are based on enzymatic reactions involving oxidases followed by chemiluminescence detection of the hydrogen peroxide formed. The protein analyser is based on the biuret reaction. The system has been used to monitor many fermentation experiments, and some results are presented as examples.

Micropacked capillary nucleic acid analysis

Nucleic acid compositional analysis is discussed, followed by a brief review of the current state of the technology applied in which the benefits and limitations of current methodology are enumerated. An alternative method is presented, namely the use of a micropacked capillary ion exchange column to separate nucleoside monophosphates via an anion exchange mechanism. The separated nucleotides are then quantitated by means of post-column photodiode-array detection. The use of a photodiode array also enables the verification of peak identity and purity by acquisition of UV spectra at any point in the separation. The technique has applications in the compositional analysis of both deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) and ribonucleic acid (RNA).

Studies on biodegradability of copolymers of lactic acid, terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol

The copolymers were synthesized by the condensation of lactic acid, terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol. Synthesized copolymers were characterized for various properties such as acid value, hydroxyl value and number average molecular weight, etc. The copolymers were analyzed by FTIR. Copolymers were biodegraded by different fungal species such as Aspergillus sp., Mucor sp., Alternaria sp. and Rhizopus sp., etc. The extent of biodegradation was examined by weight loss and scanning electron microscopy. Biodegradation of copolymer with greater amount of lactic acid was faster than the biodegradation of copolymer with lesser amount of lactic acid.     

Ultrasensitive assay of O-GlcNAc transferase using capillary electrophoresis-laser induced fluorescence

O-linked N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) transferase (OGT) is directly associated with the level of O-GlcNAc glycosylation of biomolecules and various diseases, and it is expected to be a promising potential new therapeutic target. Here, we develop a robust and sensitive method for OGT assay based on capillary electrophoresis-laser induced fluorescence (CE-LIF) method. AF-488-modified peptide containing serine active group is designed as substrate for OGT-catalyzed reaction, and nonradioactive UDP-GlcNAc is employed as sugar donor to perform O-GlcNAc glycosylation modification. The enzyme activity of OGT is measured by quantitative determination of glycosylated peptide produced by the reaction. Large volume sample stacking technique for sample injection and a unique fluorescence collection system for LIF detection are adopted to greatly enhance the detection sensitivity, thus a low limit of detection down to 0.23 pM for OGT detection is achieved. The method is successfully applied to detect OGT activity in clinical blood samples with satisfactory accuracy. Our study provides a simple, accurate, and sensitive method with great potential application in clinical diagnosis of O-GlcNAc-related diseases.     

Simultaneous determination of aminothiols, ascorbic acid and uric acid in biological samples by capillary electrophoresis with electrochemical detection

A method based on capillary electrophoresis with electrochemical detection has been employed for the separation and determination of homocysteine, cysteine, reduced glutathione, ascorbic acid and uric acid. Effects of several important factors such as the acidity and concentration of the running buffer, separation voltage, injection time and detection potential were investigated to acquire the optimum conditions. The detection electrode was a 500 microm diameter platinum disk electrode at a working potential of +1.05 V (vs saturated calomel electrode). The five analytes were well separated within 10 min in a 50 cm long fused silica capillary at a separation voltage of 18 kV in a 100 mm phosphate buffer (pH 7.8). The relation between peak current and analyte concentration was linear over about 3 orders of magnitude with the detection limits (S/N = 3) ranging from 0.83 to 2.58 microm. The proposed method was successfully applied to determine cysteine, reduced glutathione, ascorbic acid and uric acid in human whole blood and rat brain tissues with satisfactory assay results and should find a wide range of bioanalytical applications.     

Electrosynthesis of lactic acid and 2,3-dimethyltartaric acid from pyruvic acid on lead cathode in aqueous medium

Flow-injection determination of hydrogen peroxide based on fluorescence quenching of chromotropic acid catalyzed with Fe(II)

Flow-injection analysis system (FIA system), which was based on Fe(II)-catalyzed oxidation of chromotropic acid with hydrogen peroxide, was developed for the determination of hydrogen peroxide. The chromotropic acid has a fluorescence measured at λ_em = 440 nm (emission wavelength) with λ_ex = 235 nm (excitation wavelength), and the fluorescence intensity at λ_em = 440 nm quietly decreased in the presence of hydrogen peroxide and Fe(II), which was caused by Fe(II)-catalyzed oxidation of chromotropic acid with hydrogen peroxide. By measuring the difference of fluorescence intensity, hydrogen peroxide (1.0 × 10⁻⁸-1.0 × 10⁻³ mol L⁻¹) could be determined by the proposed FIA system, whose analytical throughput was 40 samples h⁻¹. The relative standard deviation (RSD) was 1.03% (n = 10) for 4.0 × 10⁻⁸ mol L⁻¹ hydrogen peroxide. The proposed FIA technique could be applied to the determination of hydrogen peroxide in rain water samples.     

Immobilization of L-glutamate oxidase and peroxidase for glutamate determination in flow injection analysis system

Streptomyces SP.N 14, isolated from soil samples, produced extracellular L-glutamate oxidase (GOD) in liquid culture. After a two-step ammonium sulfate purification and dextran G-150 chromatography, the specific activity was reached at 28.2 U/mg. The partial purified enzyme and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were covalently coupled to alkylamine controlled pore glass (CPG) by means of glutaraldehyde. About 200–300 U/g of immobilized GOD and 300–400 U/g of immobilized HRP were obtained. The immobilized enzymes were packed into a teflon tube and used in flow injection analysis (FIA) for glutamate in broth. A good linear range was observed for this immobilized enzyme system at 0.1–2.0 mM, and the precision was 2.8% (n = 25). More than 80 samples were measured within an hour. One enzyme column with about 4 U of immobilized GOD and 5 U of immobilized HRP, applied for 50 assays/d, has been used for more than 50 d. The concentration of L-glutamate remaining lower than 2.0 mM, the determination of glutamate in this system was not affected by pH and temperature within the range of 6.0–7.0 and 25–35‡C, respectively. The system was applied to determine L-glutamate in broth samples during L-glutamate fermentation, and good correlation was achieved between results obtained with the system and with the Warburg’s method.
