Determination of iminodiacetic acid in the glyphosate by ion chromatography

In this paper,a simple method based on ion chromatography（IC） with conductivity detection was developed for the determination of iminodiacetic acid（IDA） in the herbicide of glyphosate.Under optimized chromatographic conditions,good linear relationship,sensitivity and reproducibility were obtained.The detection limit（LOD） for IDA obtained by injecting 25 μL of sample was 31.8 μg/L（S/N = 3）.Relative standard deviation（RSD） of repeated analysis for the peak areas was less than 1.53%（n = 6）.A spiking study was performed with satisfactory recoveries between 92.8%and 103.6%.It was confirmed that this method could be applied in glyphosate products.     

Determination of lipids and their oxidation products by IR spectrometry

We proposed a procedure for the IR spectrometric determination of lipid hydroperoxides in biological systems. The main bands in the IR absorption spectra of linoleic acid and its hydroperoxide were identified, and analytical bands suitable for the determination of both compounds in their mixtures were selected. It was demonstrated that tert-butyl hydroperoxide can be used as an external standard for determining fatty acid hydroperoxides. Using the external standard method (calibration curve) for tert-butyl hydroperoxides, we calculated the concentration of linoleic acid hydroperoxide in its mixture with linoleic acid; it agreed with the specified values. Using the developed procedure, we estimated the concentration of hydroperoxide groups in natural cardiolipin. The results were compared to those obtained by an independent method (activated chemiluminescence).

Determination of glyphosate as cross-contaminant in a commercial herbicide by capillary electrophoresis-electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry

Capillary electrophoresis combined with mass spectrometry (CE-MS) was used for the rapid determination of the negatively charged herbicide, Glyphosate, in a selective dried granule (DG) formulation. The CE-MS method was required to ensure product safety from the risk of cross contamination of a selective herbicide formulation.

The total CE-MS analysis time was under 10 min and the limit of detection was 10 ng/mL. The CE-MS analysis of Glyphosate was simple, rapid, and selective. The method involved minimal sample handling and was proven to be ideal for cross-contamination investigations in manufacturing samples.

The possibility of using infrared spectrometry for the determination of the total oxygen and carbon impurity in polycrystalline silicon of the natural isotope composition and that enriched with the ²⁸Si isotope was studied for samples synthesized by different methods. The results of determining these impurities by the optical method are compared to those obtained by independent methods of analysis. The conditions of IR spectrometric analysis of the silicon synthesized by deposition from the gas phase are determined. It is shown that, for IR spectrometry, the upper boundaries of the analytical range of oxygen and carbon in polycrystalline silicon are 1 × 10¹⁸ and 2 × 10¹⁸ cm^?3; and the limits of their detection are 8 × 10¹⁵ and 5 × 10¹⁵ cm^?3 at a sample thickness of 0.5 and 0.2 cm, respectively.     

Determination of catalytic oxidation products of phenol by RP-HPLC

A reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) with ultraviolet detection was established for the determination of phenol, catechol, hydroquinone, and p-benzoquinone in the reaction solution of catalytic oxidation of phenol using hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant and copper-doped FeSBA-15 zeolite as the catalyst. Separation was accomplished on a reversed-phase C₁₈ column, and the elution condition was optimized by changing the composition of the mobile phase. A good resolution of all of the relative components in the reaction solution was achieved when the mobile phase was methanol–water–1% acetic acid aqueous solution = 10:50:40 (v/v/v). The concentrations of phenol, catechol, hydroquinone, and p-benzoquinone were determined in 11 different reaction solutions by the external standard method. The proposed HPLC method was simple, accurate, reliable, and suitable for tracing the amount of target products during the catalytic oxidation reaction of phenol. The results can provide data support for evaluating the properties of catalysts, and, thus, guide the selection of catalysts for the industrial production of dihydric phenol.

Determination of glyphosate and phosphate in water by ion chromatography--inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry detection

Quantitative determination of trace glyphosate and phosphate in waters was achieved by coupling ion chromatography (IC) separation with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) detection. The separation of glyphosate and phosphate on a polymer anion-exchange column (Dionex IonPac AS16, 4.0 mm x 250 mm) was obtained by eluting them with 20 mM citric acid at 0.50 mL min(-1), and the analytes were detected directly and selectively by ICP-MS at m/z = 31. Parameters affecting their chromatographic behaviors and ICP-MS characteristics were systematically examined. Based on a 500-microL sample injection volume, the detection limits were 0.7 microgL(-1) for both glyphosate and phosphate, and the calibrations were linear up to 400 microgL(-1). Polyphosphates, aminomethylphosphonic acid (the major metabolite of glyphosate), non-polar and other polar phosphorus-containing pesticides showed different chromatographic behaviors from the analytes of interest and therefore did not interference. The determination was also interference free from the matrix anions (nitrate, nitrite, sulphate, chloride, etc.) and metallic ions. The analysis of certified reference material, drinking water, reservoir water and Newater yielded satisfactory results with spiked recoveries of 97.1-107.0% and relative standard deviations of < or = 7.4% (n = 3). Compared to other reported methods for glyphosate and phosphate, the developed IC-ICP-MS method is sensitive and simple, and does not require any chemical derivatization, sample preconcentration and mobile phase conductivity suppression.

Identification of oxidation products and free radicals of tryptophan by mass spectrometry

New oxidation products and free radicals derived from tryptophan (Trp) oxidation under Fenton reaction conditions were identified using mass spectrometry. After the oxidation of tryptophan using hydrogen peroxide and iron (II) system (Fenton reaction), mono- and dihydoxy tryptophans and N-formylkynurenine were identified using electrospray mass spectrometry (ES-MS) and ES-MS/MS. Besides these products, new products resulting from the reaction of tryptophan and oxidized tryptophan and 3-methyl indole derivatives were also identified. The 3-methyl indole derivatives resulted, most probably, from the oxidation process and not from in-source processes. A dimer formed by cross-linking between two Trp radicals (Trp-Trp), similar to the previously described tyrosine dimer was observed, as well as the corresponding monohydroxy-dimer (Trp-Trp-OH). Tandem mass spectrometry was used to identify the structures of these new oxidation products. Free radicals derived from tryptophan oxidation under Fenton reaction were detected using as spin trap the DMPO. The free radical species originated during the oxidation reaction formed stable adducts with the spin trap, and these adducts were identified by ES-MS. New adducts of oxidized tryptophan radicals, namely monohydroxy-tryptophan and dihydroxy-Trp dimer radicals, with one and two DMPO spin trap molecules where identified. Tandem mass spectrometry was used to confirm the proposed structure of the observed adducts.
