Analysis of Free and Total Glycerol in Biodiesel Using an Electrochemical Assay Based on a Two‐Enzyme Oxygen‐Electrode System

In this work, an electroenzymatic methodology based on two coupled enzymatic activities (glycerokinase and glycerol‐3‐phosphate oxidase) was developed using an oxygen Clark‐type electrode for the determination of free and total glycerol in biodiesel samples. The enzymatic conversion of glycerol consumes oxygen, which is measured amperometrically in a Clark‐type electrode and correlated with the concentration of glycerol in the sample. The electroenzymatic method proposed showed a good linear correlation coefficient (R=0.9990) with a linear response in the concentration range of 6.25×10^?5 to 6.25×10^?4% (w/v) and limits of detection and quantification at 1.0×10^?5% and 3.0×10^?5% (w/v), respectively. Good correlations were found between the results obtained in this work and those by the gas chromatography technique (R=0.9994). The proposed method was shown to be promising for the analysis of glycerol in biodiesel samples, with a simple and inexpensive methodology compared with the gas chromatography technique.     

Development and validation of a fast method for determination of free glycerol in biodiesel by capillary electrophoresis

In this study, a capillary electrophoresis (CE) methodology for the determination of free glycerol in biodiesel using oxidative cleavage with periodate was optimized and validated. The amount of iodate produced in the reaction was determined by CE. The optimized electrolyte was 20 mmol L(-1) glycine and 10 mmol L(-1) trifluoroacetic acid (direct UV detection, 210 nm). The short total analysis time (less than 28 s) was obtained using the short end injection mode. The optimization of the method was carried out using Peakmaster software. The choice of the components of the run electrolyte and of the internal standard (nitrate) was made through the use of effective mobility curves. A good correlation coefficient higher than 0.9991 and low LOD 4.3 mg L(-1) was obtained. The recovery of free glycerol was 95.4-102.4%. This method was used to determine glycerol in commercial biodiesel samples.     

Determination of free glycerol in biodiesel at a platinum oxide surface using potential cycling technique

A novel, inexpensive and fast method based on the electrooxidation of glycerol on platinum electrodes by the potential cycling technique has been designed for the determination of free glycerol in biodiesel. A wide range of linearity was achieved between 15 and 150 mg L⁻¹ (0.16 and 1.6 mmol L⁻¹), which corresponds to concentrations ranging between 56 and 560 mg kg⁻¹ (glycerol:biodiesel) for an extraction using 2 g biodiesel. A method for the fast extraction of glycerol from biodiesel with water followed by elimination of organic interferents has also been developed, so that the novel determination method can be applied to various biodiesel samples. The excellent repeatability allows determination of glycerol in numerous samples, with no need for recalibration.     

Application of Graphene as Solid Phase Extraction Absorbent for the Determination of Parabens in Cosmetic Products by Capillary Electrophoresis

A graphene-based solid phase extraction (SPE) technique was developed for the extraction of parabens (methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, and butylparaben) in cosmetic samples, followed by determination by capillary electrophoresis (CE). The SPE extraction parameters such as eluent reagent and eluent volume, washing solution, sample pH, and flow-rate of sample loading, were investigated for satisfied recoveries. The running buffer, consisting of 25 mM borate solution (pH 10.0), was used for the separation of four parabens with the CE method within 10 min. The limits of detection were 0.14 mg/L, 0.13 mg/L, 0.15 mg/L, and 0.10 mg/L for methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, and butylparaben, respectively, and the mean recoveries obtained were between 62.6% and 100.4%. The developed method was used for the determination of parabens in real cosmetic products.     

Sequential spectrofluorimetric determination of free and total glycerol in biodiesel in a multicommuted flow system

A new procedure for spectrofluorimetric determination of free and total glycerol in biodiesel samples is presented. It is based on the oxidation of glycerol by periodate, forming formaldehyde, which reacts with acetylacetone, producing the luminescent 3,5-diacetyl-1,4-dihydrolutidine. A flow system with solenoid micro-pumps is proposed for solution handling. Free glycerol was extracted off-line from biodiesel samples with water, and total glycerol was converted to free glycerol by saponification with sodium ethylate under sonication. For free glycerol, a linear response was observed from 5 to 70 mg L⁻¹ with a detection limit of 0.5 mg L⁻¹, which corresponds to 2 mg kg⁻¹ in biodiesel. The coefficient of variation was 0.9% (20 mg L⁻¹, n = 10). For total glycerol, samples were diluted on-line, and the linear response range was 25 to 300 mg L⁻¹. The detection limit was 1.4 mg L⁻¹ (2.8 mg kg⁻¹ in biodiesel) with a coefficient of variation of 1.4% (200 mg L⁻¹, n = 10). The sampling rate was ca. 35 samples h⁻¹ and the procedure was applied to determination of free and total glycerol in biodiesel samples from soybean, cottonseed, and castor beans.

Capillary-electrophoretic determination of zinc and cadmium ions in aqueous solutions with ion-exchange preconcentration

An approach to choosing analyte preconcentration conditions for the subsequent capillary electrophoresis (CE) analysis of the concentrate was substantiated using the simultaneous determination of zinc(II) and cadmium(II) trace concentrations as an example. A CE procedure was developed for the determination of Zn and Cd with the following characteristics: The time of the analysis, including analyte preconcentration from a 50-mL sample, was 30 min. The analytical ranges were 0.01–0.2 mg/L for cadmium(II) and 0.005–0.1 mg/L for zinc(II).     

In‐capillary reactant mixing for monitoring glycerol kinase kinetics by CE

CE was used for the first time to study the two‐substrate enzyme glycerol kinase. The capillary was used as a nanoreactor in which the enzyme and its two substrates glycerol and adenosine‐5′‐triphosphate were in‐capillary mixed to realize the enzymatic assay. For kinetic parameters determination, reactants were injected (50 mbar × 5 s) as follows: (i) incubation buffer; (ii) adenosine‐5′‐triphosphate; (iii) enzyme, and (iv) glycerol. Enzymatic reaction was then initiated by mixing the reactants using electrophoretically mediated microanalysis (+20 kV for 6 s) followed by a zero‐potential amplification step of 3 min. Finally, electrophoretic separation was performed; the product adenosine‐5′‐diphosphate was detected at 254 nm and quantified. For enzyme inhibition, an allosteric inhibitor fructose‐1,6‐bisphosphate plug was injected before the first substrate plug and +20 kV for 8 s was applied for reactant mixing. A simple, economic, and robust CE method was developed for monitoring glycerol kinase activity and inhibition. Only a few tens of nanoliters of reactants were used. The results compared well with those reported in literature. This study indicates, for the first time, that at least four reactant plugs can be in‐capillary mixed using an electrophoretically mediated microanalysis approach.

Microwave‐assisted extraction followed by CE for determination of catechin and epicatechin in green tea

In this work, for the first time, microwave‐assisted extraction (MAE) followed by CE was developed for the fast analysis of catechin and epicatechin in green tea. In the proposed method, catechin and epicatechin in green tea samples were rapidly extracted by MAE technique, and then analyzed by CE. The MAE conditions and the method's validation were studied. It is found that the extraction time of 1 min with 400 W microwave irradiation is enough to completely extract catechin and epicatechin in green tea sample, whereas the conventional ultrasonic extraction (USE) technique needs long extraction time of 60 min. The method validations were also studied in this work. The calibration curve shows good linearity in 0.01–3 mg/mL for catechin (R²=0.993), and 0.005–3 mg/mL for epicatechin (R²=0.996), respectively. The RSD values for catechin and epicatechin are 0.65 and 2.58%, respectively. This shows that the proposed method has good reproducibility. The proposed method has good recoveries, which are 118% for catechin and 120% for epicatechin. The proposed method was successfully applied to determination of the catechin and epicatechin in different green tea samples. The experiment results have demonstrated that the MAE following CE is a simple, fast and reliable method for the determination of catechin and epicatechin in green tea.     

Simultaneous determination of serotonin and creatinine in urine by combining two ultrasound-assisted emulsification microextractions with on-column stacking in capillary electrophoresis

This article describes the development of a rapid, simple, and sensitive analytical approach for the simultaneous determination of serotonin (5‐hydroxytryptamine) and creatinine in urine samples by combining two ultrasound‐assisted emulsification microextractions (USAEMEs) in series with on‐column stacking in CE. This serial USAEME procedure comprises analytes extraction from the donor solution (urine with K₂CO₃ additive) to an organic solvent followed by a back‐extraction from the organic phase into a small volume of hydrochloric acid. After 15 min of sample pretreatment, the acidic acceptor solution was analyzed directly on CE in the mode of capillary zone electrophoresis. The adoption of HCl as the acceptor phase not only provided effective back‐extraction but also facilitated pH‐mediated on‐column stacking in CE analysis. About 360‐fold sensitivity enhancement was achieved for serotonin detection. The limits of detection were 7.9 nM for serotonin and 13.3 μM for creatinine, respectively. Satisfactory results were obtained with respect to precision and recovery. The proposed method has been demonstrated to be convenient and effective for the analysis of real urine samples. We believe that two USAEMEs in series will find wide applications in simplified sample pretreatment prior to CE analysis.     

Interfacial reaction using particle-immobilized reagents in a fluidized reactor. Determination of glycerol in biodiesel

A novel fluidized beads strategy for utilization of particle-immobilized reagents in flow analysis was developed in this study. The performance of the suggested strategy was demonstrated by the determination of glycerol in biodiesel. This analytical task was used as a proof-of-concept example. The method is based on on-line extraction of glycerol from biodiesel into aqueous stationary phase of extraction-chromatographic column, followed by elution and spectrophotometric determination in the form of copper glycerate formed in a fluidized reactor of stepwise injection system. The floating of cation exchange resin Dowex^® 50WX4, saturated with Cu(II) ions in liquid phase, was accomplished by air-bubbling. The linear range was from 100 to 1000 mg kg⁻¹, and the limit of detection, calculated as 3s of a blank test (n = 5), was found to be 30 mg kg⁻¹. The method was successfully applied to the analysis of biodiesel and biodiesel-blend (B 20) samples.     

Online preconcentration by electrokinetic supercharging for separation of endocrine disrupting chemical and phenolic pollutants in water samples

Online preconcentration using electrokinetic supercharging (EKS) was proposed to enhance the sensitivity of separation for endocrine disrupting chemical (methylparaben (MP)) and phenolic pollutants (2‐nitrophenol (NP) and 4‐chlorophenol (CP)) in water sample. Important EKS and separation conditions such as the concentration of BGE; the choice of terminating electrolyte (TE); and the injection time of leading electrolyte (LE), sample, and TE were optimized. The optimum EKS‐CE conditions were as follows: BGE comprising of 12 mM sodium tetraborate pH 10.1, 100 mM sodium chloride as LE hydrodynamically injected at 50 mbar for 30 s, electrokinetic injection (EKI) of sample at –3 kV for 200 s, and 100 mM CHES as TE hydrodynamically injected at 50 mbar for 40 s. The separation was conducted at negative polarity mode and UV detection at 214 nm. Under these conditions, the sensitivity of analytes was enhanced from 100‐ to 737‐fold as compared to normal CZE with hydrodynamic injection, giving LOD of 4.89, 5.29, and 53 μg/L for MP, NP and CP, respectively. The LODs were adequate for the analysis of NP and CP in environmental water sample having concentration at or lower than their maximum admissible concentration limit (240 and 2000 μg/L for NP and CP). The LOD of MP can be suitable for the analysis of MP exists at mid‐microgram per liter level, even though the LOD was slightly higher than the concentration usually found in water samples (from ng/L to 1 μg/L). The method repeatabilities (%RSD) were in the range of 1.07–2.39% (migration time) and 8.28–14.0% (peak area).     

Dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction based on solidification of floating organic drop combined with field‐amplified sample injection in capillary electrophoresis for the determination of beta(2)‐agonists in bovine urine

Dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction based on solidification of floating organic drop (DLLME–SFO) was for the first time combined with field‐amplified sample injection (FASI) in CE to determine four β₂‐agonists (cimbuterol, clenbuterol, mabuterol, and mapenterol) in bovine urine. Optimum BGE consisted of 20 mM borate buffer and 0.1 mM SDS. Using salting‐out extraction, β₂‐agonists were extracted into ACN that was then used as the disperser solvent in DLLME–SFO. Optimum DLLME–SFO conditions were: 1.0 mL ACN, 50 μL 1‐undecanol (extraction solvent), total extraction time 1.5 min, no salt addition. Back extraction into an aqueous solution (pH 2.0) facilitated direct injection of β₂‐agonists into CE. Compared to conventional CZE, DLLME–SFO–FASI–CE achieved sensitivity enhancement factors of 41–1046 resulting in LODs in the range of 1.80–37.0 μg L^?1. Linear dynamic ranges of 0.15–10.0 mg L^?1 for cimbuterol and 15–1000 μg L^?1 for the other analytes were obtained with coefficients of determination (R²) ≥ 0.9901 and RSD% ≤5.5 (n = 5). Finally, the applicability of the proposed method was successfully confirmed by determination of the four β₂‐agonists in spiked bovine urine samples and accuracy higher than 96.0% was obtained.

Determination of pentachlorophenol and tribromophenol in sawdust by ultrasound-assisted extraction and MEKC

An ultrasonic bar-assisted extraction and CE separation procedure for the determination of pentachlorophenol (PCP) and 2,4,6-tribromophenol (TBP) residues in sawdust was developed and applied. For this purpose, micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography (MEKC) was used and compared with a GC/MS methodology. This methodology allowed the quantification of PCP and TBP in a concentration range of 2.5-12.0 mg/kg for TBP and 2.8-12.0 mg/kg for PCP. Different sample treatment processes were evaluated in order to extract these compounds from sawdust. Better results were obtained when the residues were extracted with ultrasound-assisted hexane, filtered, evaporated, dissolved in Na(2)CO(3), and injected into the CE equipment. The optimal option for GC/MS was extraction with Na(2)CO(3 )followed by a derivation using acetic anhydride and liquid-liquid extraction with hexane. This method allowed the quantification of TBP and PCP in sawdust in a concentration range of 0.19-12.00 mg/kg and 0.14-12.00 mg/kg, respectively. The CE method was compared with the GC/MS as reference method. The results were shown to be statistically similar by both methods for PCP as well as for TBP.     

Speciation analysis of mercury by dispersive solid‐phase extraction coupled with capillary electrophoresis

A pretreatment method of dispersive solid‐phase extraction (DSPE) along with back‐extraction followed by CE‐UV detector was developed for the determination of mercury species in water samples. Sulfhydryl‐functionalized SiO₂ microspheres (SiO₂−SH) were synthesized and used as DSPE adsorbents for selective extraction and enrichment of three organic mercury species namely ethylmercury (EtHg), methylmercury (MeHg), and phenylmercury (PhHg), along with L‐cysteine (L‐cys) containing hydrochloric acid as back‐extraction solvent. Several main extraction parameters were systematically investigated including sample pH, amount of adsorbent, extraction and back‐extraction time, volume of eluent, and concentration of hydrochloric acid. Under optimal conditions, good linearity was achieved with correlation coefficients over 0.9990, in the range of 4−200 μg/L for EtHg, and 2−200 μg/L for MeHg and PhHg. The LODs were obtained of 1.07, 0.34, and 0.24 μg/L for EtHg, MeHg, and PhHg, respectively, as well as the LOQs were 3.57, 1.13, and 0.79 μg/L, respectively, with enrichment factors ranging from 109 to 184. Recoveries were attained with tap and lake water samples in a range of 62.3−107.2%, with relative standard deviations of 3.5–10.1%. The results proved that the method of SiO₂−SH based DSPE coupled with CE‐UV was a simple, rapid, cost‐effective, and eco‐friendly alternative for the determination of mercury species in water samples.     

Quality evaluation of six bioactive constituents in goji berry based on capillary electrophoresis field amplified sample stacking

Goji berry, fruits of the plant Lycium barbarum L., has long been used as traditional medicine and functional food in China. In this work, a simple and easy‐operation on‐line concentration capillary electrophoresis (CE) for detection flavonoids in goji berry was developed by coupling of field amplified sample stacking (FASS) with an electroosmotic (EOF) pump driving water removal process. Due to the EOF pump and electrokinetic injection showing different influence on the concentration, the analytes injection condition should be systemically studied. Thereafter, the verification of the analytes injection conditions was achieved using response surface experimental design. Under the optimum conditions, 86–271 folds sensitivity enhancement upon normal capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE, 50 mbar × 5 s) were achieved for six flavonoids, and the detection limits ranged from 0.35 to 1.82 ng/mL; the LOQ ranged from 1.20 to 6.01 ng/mL. Eventually, the proposed method was applied to detect flavonoids in 30 goji berry samples from different habitats of China; and the results indicated that the flavonoids were rich in the eluent of 30–60% methanol, which provided a reference for extraction of goji berry flavonoids.
