Interferences in the analysis of nanomolar concentrations of nitrate and phosphate in oceanic waters
This paper reports on investigations into interferences with the measurements of nanomolar nitrate + nitrite and soluble reactive phosphate (SRP) in oceanic surface seawater using a segmented continuous flow autoanalyser (SCFA) interfaced with a liquid-waveguide capillary flow-cell (LWCC). The interferences of silicate and arsenate with the analysis of SRP, the effect of sample filtration on the measurement of nanomolar nitrate + nitrite and SRP concentrations, and the stability of samples during storage are described.The investigation into the effect of arsenate (concentrations up to 100 nM) on phosphate analysis (concentrations up to 50 nM) indicated that the arsenate interference scaled linearly with phosphate concentrations, resulting in an overestimation of SRP concentrations of 4.6 ± 1.4% for an assumed arsenate concentration of 20 nM. The effect of added Si(OH)4 was to increase SRP signals by up to 36 ± 19 nM (at 100 μM Si(OH)4). However, at silicate concentrations below 1.5 μM, which are typically observed in oligotrophic surface ocean waters, the effect of silicate on the phosphate analysis was much smaller (≤0.78 ± 0.15 nM change in SRP). Since arsenate and silicate interferences vary between analytical approaches used for nanomolar SRP analysis, it is important that the interferences are systematically assessed in any newly developed analytical system.Filtration of surface seawater samples resulted in a decrease in concentration of 1.7-2.7 nM (±0.5 nM) SRP, and a small decrease in nitrate concentrations which was within the precision of the method (±0.6 nM). A stability study indicated that storage of very low concentration nutrient samples in the dark at 4 °C for less than 24 h resulted in no statistically significant changes in nutrient concentrations. Freezing unfiltered surface seawater samples from an oligotrophic ocean region resulted in a small but significant increase in the SRP concentration from 12.0 ± 1.3 nM (n = 3) to 14.7 ± 0.6 nM (n = 3) (Student's t-test; p = 0.021). The corresponding change in nitrate concentration was not significant (Student's t-test; p > 0.05). 相似文献

A flow injection manifold incorporating a 1 m liquid waveguide capillary cell and a miniature fibre-optic spectrometer for the determination of low phosphorus concentrations in natural waters is reported. The limit of detection (blank + 3 S.D.) was 10 nM using the molybdenum blue chemistry with tin(II) chloride reduction. The sensitivity of the flow injection manifold was improved by 100-fold compared with a conventional 1 cm flow cell. The response was measured at 710 nm and background corrected by subtracting the absorbance at 447 nm. Interference from silicate was effectively masked by the addition of 0.1% (m/v) tartaric acid and results were in good agreement (P = 0.05) with a segmented flow analyser reference method for freshwater samples containing 1 μM phosphate. 相似文献

From the study of molybdenum oxidation in aqueous solutions we developed a semi-autonomous method to detect silicate in aqueous samples. Molybdenum oxidation was used to form molybdate in acidic media. The silicomolybdic complex formed with silicate is detectable by amperometry or cyclic voltammetry. The new electrochemical method is in good agreement with the method conventionally used for environmental water silicate analysis. In the second stage, a completely reagentless method was developed using molybdate and proton produced during molybdenum oxidation. Reproducibility tests show a precision of 2.6% for a concentration of 100 μmol L−1. This new method will be very suitable for the development of new autonomous silicate sensors easy to handle and without reagents. In this paper we present the analytical and chemical aspects necessary for a complete documentation of the method before the development of a new reagentless sensor. 相似文献

Trace and ultratrace analysis methods for the determination of phosphorus by flow-injection techniques 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Trace (≤1 mg/l or 30 μM) and ultratrace (≤1 μg/l or 30 nM) analysis methods for phosphorus determination by flow-injection analysis are reviewed. Most of the methods cited in this review are fundamentally based on the reaction of orthophosphate with molybdate to form heteropoly acids, such as molybdenum yellow and molybdenum blue, and some of the methods are based on the formation of such secondary reactions as ion associates and their aggregates with bulky cations, such as cationic dyes and quaternary ammonium ions. The heteropoly acids themselves can be measured by spectrophotometry, and the ion associate formed with a cationic dye, Malachite Green (MG), can be measured based on the coloration of MG. Light scattering detection methods can be used for measuring the aggregates of ion associates formed with bulky cations. Highly sensitive detection of phosphorus can be accomplished by fluorophotometry; Rhodamine B (RB) and its analogues react with molybdophosphate to form ion associates, which shows fluorescence quenching of RB: LOD is about 5 nM. The detection method based on the chemiluminescence of luminal oxidized with molybdophosphoric acids is probably the most sensitive of all the detection methods reported so far: LOD of the method is as low as 1 nM. The LOD of the molybdenum blue method can be improved by using a liquid core waveguide: LOD is 0.5 nM. 相似文献

Evaluation of on-line preconcentration and flow-injection amperometry for phosphate determination in fresh and marine waters 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Dissolved reactive phosphorus (DRP) was determined as orthophosphate (PO4-P) in fresh and saline water samples by flow-injection (FI) amperometry, without and with in-valve column preconcentration. Detection is based on reduction of the product formed from the reaction of DRP with acidic molybdate at a glassy carbon working electrode (GCE) at 220 mV versus the Ag/AgCl reference electrode. A 0.1 M potassium chloride solution was used as both supporting electrolyte and eluent in the preconcentration system. For the FI configuration without preconcentration, a detection limit of 3.4 μg P l−1 and sample throughput of 70 samples h−1 were achieved. The relative standard deviations for 50 and 500 μg P l−1 orthophosphate standards were 5.2 and 5.9%, respectively. By incorporating an ion exchange preconcentration column, a detection limit of 0.18 μg P l−1 was obtained for a 2-min preconcentration time (R.S.D.s for 0.1 and 1 μg P l−1 standards were 22 and 1.0%, respectively). Potential interference from silicate, sulfide, organic phosphates and sodium chloride were investigated. Both the systems were applied to the analysis of certified reference materials and water samples. 相似文献

The simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of phosphate and silicate ions in river water was examined by using ion-exclusion chromatography and post-column derivatization. Phosphate and silicate ions were separated by the ion-exclusion column packed with a polymethacrylate-based weakly acidic cation-exchange resin in the H+-form (TSKgel Super IC-A/C) by using ultra pure water as an eluent. After the post-column derivatization with molybdate and ascorbic acid, so-called molybdenum-blue, both ions were determined simultaneously by spectrophotometry. The effects of sulfuric acid, sodium molybdate and ascorbic acid concentrations and reaction coil length, which have relation to form the reduced complexes of molybdate and ions, on the detector response for phosphate and silicate ions were investigated. Under the optimized conditions (color-forming reactant, 50 mM sulfuric acid-10 mM sodium molybdate; reducing agent, 50 mM ascorbic acid; reaction coil length, 6 m), the calibration curves of phosphate and silicate ions were linear in the range of 50-2000 μg L−1 as P and 250-10,000 μg L−1 as Si. This method was successfully applied to water quality monitoring of Kurose-river watershed and it suggested that the effluent from a biological sewage treatment plant was significant source of phosphate ion in Kurose-river water. 相似文献

A method was established using capillary electrophoresis with indirect UV detection for analysis of monosaccharides liberated from exopolysaccharides by acidic hydrolysis. Tangential flow filtration was used to isolate high molecular weight polysaccharides from seawater. The capillary electrophoresis method included the use of a background electrolyte consisting of 2,6-dimethoxyphenol and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. Several neutral sugars commonly existing in marine polysaccharides were separated under optimized conditions. The relative standard deviations were between 1.3% and 2.3% for relative migration time and 1.3-2.5% for peak height. Detection limits (at S/N 3) were in the range of 27.2-47.8 μM. The proposed approach was applied to the analysis of hydrolyzed colloidal polysaccharides in seawater collected from the Baltic Sea. Nanomolar levels of liberated monosaccharides in seawater samples can be detected by preconcentration up to 30,000 times. 相似文献

This paper proposes a new automated spectrophotometric method for the simultaneous determination of phosphate and arsenate without pre-treatment, which is faster, simpler, less expensive and hazardous than other well-known methods used with water samples. Such method is based on the different kinetic characteristics of complex formation of phosphate and arsenate with ammonium molybdate. A flow system was used in order to achieve good mixing and to provide precise time control. All the measurements were performed at the isosbestic point wavelength (885 nm). Chemical variables were optimized by factorial design (ammonium molybdate 0.015 mol L−1, potassium antimony tartrate 1 × 10−4 mol L−1, and sulphuric acid 0.7 mol L−1). An appropriate linear range for both analytes (0.50-8.00 μmol L−1), good inter-day reproducibility (4.9% [P] and 3.3% [P + As]) and a sample throughput of 6 h−1 were obtained. The detection limits are 0.4 μmol L−1 P and 0.19 μmol L−1 [P + As] (3.3 Sy/x). The method was validated. 相似文献

An indirect method for the determination of silicon in blood samples has been developed. The proposed method overcame interference from a large amount of salts and phosphate in blood samples, and enabled us to determine the silicon contents in serum and whole blood by the same operation. After blood samples were digested by microwave heating, silicon, present as silicate in the sample solution, was reacted with molybdate to form a silicomolybdate complex. The complex was then separated from unreacted molybdate by a cation-exchange resin column. The molybdate liberated from the complex was spectrophotometrically determined in place of silicon. Since the method is not affected the composition of matrices between serum and whole blood, it could achieve good precision and accuracy, and could also estimate the silicon contents in erythrocytes from those in serum and whole blood. The sensitivity of the method was almost equal to that of the conventional silicomolybdenum blue method, and the calibration curve was linear up to 50 micromol l(-1) of silicon with a detection limit of 1.1 micromol l(-1) in whole blood. The mean concentrations of silicon in five healthy subjects were 11 micromol l(-1) for serum, 28 micromol l(-1) for whole blood and 50 micromol l(-1) for erythrocytes. Thus, the obtained distribution ratio between serum and erythrocytes was in the range of 0.15-0.39, and was found to be included in a narrow range. 相似文献

A simple, sensitive and selective method for the determination of bromide in seawater by using a flow injection/stopped-flow detection technique was examined. The detection system was developed for a new kinetic-spectrophotometric determination of bromide in the presence of chloride matrix without any extraction and/or separation. The detection was based on the kinetic effect of bromide on the oxidation of methylene blue (MB) with hydrogen peroxide in a strongly acidic solution. Large amounts of chloride could enhance the sensitivity of the method as an activator. The decolorisation of the blue color of MB was used for the spectrophotometric determination of bromide at 746 nm. A stopped-flow approach was used to improve the sensitivity of the measurement and provide good linearity of the calibration over the range of 0-3.2 μg ml−1 of bromide. The relative standard deviation was 0.74% for the determination of 2.4 μg ml−1 bromide (n = 5). The detection limit (3σ) was 0.1 μg ml−1 with a sampling frequency of 12 h−1. The influence of potential interfering ions was studied. The proposed method was applied to the determination of bromide in seawater samples and provided satisfactory results. 相似文献

A novel optical fibre reflectance sensor coupled to a multisyringe flow injection system (MSFIA) for the determination and speciation analysis of iron at trace level using chelating disks (iminodiacetic groups) is proposed. Once iron(III) has been retained onto a chelating disk, an ammonium thiocyanate stream is injected in order to form the iron(III)-thiocyanate complex which is spectrophotometrically detected at 480 nm. Iron(III) is eluted with 2 M hydrochloric acid so that the chelating disk is regenerated for subsequent experiments. The determination of total iron is achieved by the on-line oxidation of iron(II) to iron(III) with a suitable hydrogen peroxide stream.A mass calibration was feasible in the range from 0.001 to 0.25 μg. The detection limit (3sb/S) was 0.001 μg. The repeatability (RSD), calculated from nine replicates using 1 ml injections of a 0.1 mg/l concentration, was 2.2%. The repeatability between five chelating disks was 3.6%. The applicability of the proposed methodology in fresh and seawater samples has been proved.The proposed technique has been validated by replicate analysis (n = 4) of certified reference materials of water with satisfactory results. 相似文献

The suitability of capillary electrophoresis (CE) with capacitively coupled contactless conductivity detection (C4D) for the direct determination of uric acid in human plasma and urine was investigated. It was found that a careful optimization of the buffer composition and pH was necessary to achieve selective determination in the complex sample matrices. An electrolyte solution consisting of 10 mM 2-morpholinoethanesulfonic acid (MES), 10 mM histidine and 0.1 mM hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), pH 6.0, was finally found suitable for use as running buffer for both sample matrices. The limit of detection (3 S/N) was determined as 3.3 μM. The linearity of the response was tested for the range between 10 and 500 μM and a correlation coefficient of 0.9996 was obtained. Intra- and inter-day variabilities were <10%. Quantitative analysis of urine and plasma samples showed a good correlation with the routine enzymatic method currently used at the University Hospital of Basel. 相似文献

A simple and fast reaction between 12-molybdophosphate heteropoly anion and the polymethine dye Astra Phloxine was used for the development of a new SIA method for the determination of orthophosphate. The suggested method has higher sensitivity and a broader calibration range than existing SIA methods. It can be used to detect phosphate in the range from 0.2 to 10 μmol L−1 with a detection limit of 0.1 μmol L−1 and an acceptable throughput of 20 samples h−1. The comparably low molybdate (5.6 mmol L−1) and dye (0.1 mmol L−1) concentrations led to an improvement in the stability of the base line. Inter-day reproducibility was better than 5%, while the intra-day RSD was in the range 0.8-3.5%. The method was used for the analysis of natural water samples and phosphorus-containing chemicals having a low content of orthophosphate. 相似文献

Silicon is an essential trace element and is found in vegetables, fruits, cereals, water, pasta and rice (Oryza sativa). In this work, the silica content of different types of rice grains were measured. Here, we used the heteropoly blue photometric method with a double beam UV-vis spectrophotometer to determine the amount of silicon in rice samples (n = 7) that were collected in the north of Iran. The samples were digested with wet-ashing method by microwave-assisted heating and then treated with ammonium molybdate to produce a yellow color compound in acidic solution (ca. pH 1.2) and then reduced to give a heteropoly compound with a blue color. Analyses were performed using standard addition method and absorbance values were measured with double beam UV-vis spectrophotometer at λmax = 815 nm. Results indicated that the silica content was 307-451 mg/kg for the samples. X-ray diffraction patterns and infra-red spectra were obtained from rice samples without any sample treatment. 相似文献

Altered levels of aminothiols in biological fluids are thought to be an important risk indicator for several diseases, and reliable methods for the accurate determination of aminothiols concentrations in plasma are thus required. In this paper ammonium 5-bromo-7-fluorobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole-4-sulphonate (SBD-BF) is proposed as a convenient fluorogenic derivatizating reagent for the determination of aminothiols (cysteine, cysteinylglycine, homocysteine and glutathione) by HPLC with fluorescence detection. The reactions of SBD-BF with aminothiols at room temperature are about three-times faster than those of ammonium 7-fluorobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole-4-sulphonate (the most frequently employed reagent) at 60 °C. The derivatives of SBD-BF with cysteine, cysteinylglycine, homocysteine and glutathione are easily separated by HPLC and their calibration curves show excellent linearity over the range 0.05–20 μmol/L with excellent r2 values for all analytes. SBD-BF reacts with thiols under mild conditions, i.e. at 25 °C over about 30 min, and is proposed as a suitable fluorogenic reagent for thiol derivatization to be introduced in analytical clinical chemistry. The detection limits of Cys, Cys-Gly, Hcy and GSH at a signal-to-noise ratio of 5 were 0.1 μM for Cys, 0.01 μM for Cys-Gly and Hcy, and 0.02 μM for GSH. Furthermore, validation parameters of the proposed method are quite satisfactory. As an application of this method the determination of thiol derivatives in human plasma was carried out on a number of samples. 相似文献

This work presents a novel method for simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of phosphate and silicate by using a cross injection analysis (CIA) coupled with the use of partial least squares (PLS) for data evaluation. The detection principle is based on the well-known ‘molybdenum blue’ method. The molybdate ions in the presence of stannous chloride in acidic medium give phosphomolybdenum blue and silicomolybdenum blue as products. In this work, all the liquids, including sample and reagents were simultaneously introduced into a CIA platform by using two peristaltic pumps for controlling the x-channel and y-channel flow which was automatically manipulated by using in-house control board. Crossflow provides sufficient mixing inside the platform prior detection of the absorption spectra of blue complexes in the wavelength of 400–900 nm. Since spectra of the blue colour product of phosphate and silicate are resemblant, these two analytes therefore reciprocally interfere with one another. This results in difficulty in simultaneous analysis of phosphate and silicate. In this work, PLS was utilised as assistor of CIA system for simultaneous analysis of phosphate and silicate using molybdenum blue reaction without using any modification of reagents and addition of selective masking agent. The calibration ranges are 0.1–6 mgP L?1 and 5–100 mgSi L?1 for phosphate and silicate, respectively. By using CIA coupled with PLS for data evaluation, the analysis of two analytes was achieved within 1.5 min with only single injection. The developed system was applied to natural water samples and the system was validated with the conventional methods. By statistical paired t-test, there was no evidence of significant difference at 95% confidence level (tstat = 2.28, tcritical = 2.31 and tstat = 0.62, tcritical = 2.31 for phosphate and silicate, respectively). This implied that the chemometrics-assisted CIA system was successfully developed for simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of phosphate and silicate. 相似文献

Combining fluorescence detection with flow analysis and solid phase extraction (SPE), a highly sensitive and automatic flow system for measurement of ultra-trace ammonium in open ocean water was established. Determination was based on fluorescence detection of a typical product of o-phthaldialdehyde and ammonium. In this study, the fluorescence reaction product could be efficiently extracted onto an SPE cartridge (HLB, hydrophilic–lipophilic balance). The extracted fluorescence compounds were rapidly eluted with ethanol and directed into a flow cell for fluorescence detection. Compared with the common used fluorescence method, the proposed one offered the benefits of improved sensitivity, reduced reagent consumption, negligible salinity effect and lower cost. Experimental parameters were optimized using a univariate experimental design. Calibration curves, ranging from 1.67 to 300 nM, were obtained with different reaction times. The recoveries were between 89.5 and 96.5%, and the detection limits in land-based and shipboard laboratories were 0.7 and 1.2 nM, respectively. The relative standard deviation was 3.5% (n = 5) for an aged seawater sample spiked with 20 nM ammonium. Compared with the analytical results obtained using the indophenol blue method coupled to a long-path liquid waveguide capillary cell, the proposed method showed good agreement. The method had been applied on board during a South China Sea cruise in August 2012. A vertical profile of ammonium in the South East Asia Time-Series (SEATS, 18° N, 116° E) station was produced. The distribution of ammonium in the surface seawater of the Qiongdong upwelling in South China Sea is also presented. 相似文献

A modified molybdenum blue method for fast and accurate measurement of arsenate and phosphate in aqueous solution at concentrations below 10 μmol l−1 is reported. The modification consists of optimizing the composition of the molybdenum-containing solution (potassium antimony tartrate, ammonium molybdate, sulfuric acid).Selective reduction of arsenate by sodium dithionite is used to determine phosphate concentrations, and for the speciation of arsenate and arsenite, in an aqueous mixture according to the scheme developed by Johnston and Pilson. Sodium dithionite is used for the first time to achieve complete, fast (<10 min), and selective reduction of arsenate in neutral solution.These two significant improvements afforded a colorimetric limit for As detection near 1 ppb, which easily meets the requirements imposed by the revised EPA threshold levels for As in drinking water. 相似文献

A sensitive and effort-saving method was established and validated for the quantitative determination of recombinant Arg-Gly-Asp-hirudin (rRGD-hirudin) in human urine samples. The assay was performed on a uncoated fused silica capillary of 70 cm × 50 μm I.D. and a positive voltage of 30 kV was applied. The sample was injected under pressure of 50 mbar for 300 s and the temperature of capillary was kept 25 °C. Sheath liquid consisting of 30% methanol and 70% of 0.1% formic acid aqueous solution flowing at 7 μL/min was supplied to the CE-electrospray interface. Utilizing the dynamic pH junction technique, a lower limit of quantitation of approximately 35 nM was achieved (concentration coefficiency was about 100-fold) without complex sample preprocessing procedure. CE-MS conditions and parameters were also optimized to obtain better performance. The method has been successfully applied in clinical research of rRGD-hirudin. 相似文献
