Determination of trapidil in human serum and urine by derivative UV spectrophotometry after selective solid-phase extraction

A novel analytical technique able to determine the anti-ischemic drug trapidil in human serum and urine is proposed. In order to achieve satisfactory sensitivity and selectivity, an extraction procedure was required to isolate the drug from complex matrixes such as serum and urine. A solid-phase extraction procedure was investigated to both increase the analyte concentration and eliminate the interfering molecules present in large amounts in both matrixes. Optimization of the extraction step was realized by selecting a new polymeric sorbent based on a surface-modified styrene–divinylbenzene polymer which provided fast and efficient drug extraction. Drug quantification was performed by using the third-order derivative spectra of the SPE eluates. Absorbance specific signals at ³D_335,316 and ³D₃₁₆ nm for urine and serum, respectively, were demonstrated to be directly proportional to drug concentration and barely affected by residual matrix interferences. Under the optimized experimental conditions the calibration plots were linear over the concentration range 0.2–50 μg mL⁻¹. The method was validated by analysis of a series of spiked samples. Accuracy (recovery of 95 and 94% for serum and urine, respectively) and precision (RSD below 4%) were good. Figure Assay of Trapidil in biological fluids by SPE and derivative spectrophotometry

Determination of lamivudine and zidovudine in binary mixtures using first derivative spectrophotometric, first derivative of the ratio-spectra and high-performance liquid chromatography-UV methods

Three methods are presented for the simultaneous determination of lamivudine and zidovudine. The first method depends on first derivative UV spectrophotometry, with zero-crossing and peak-to-base measurement. The first derivative amplitudes at 265.6 and 271.6 nm were selected for the assay of lamivudine and zidovudine, respectively. The second method depends on first derivative of the ratio-spectra by measurements of the amplitudes at 239.5 and 245.3 nm for lamivudine and 225.1 and 251.5 nm for zidovudine. Calibration graphs were established for 1-50 μg/ml for lamivudine and 2-100 μg/ml for zidovudine. In the third method (HPLC), a reversed-phase column with a mobile phase of methanol:water:acetonitrile (70:20:10 (v/v/v)) at 0.9 ml/min flow rate was used to separate both compounds with a detection of 265.0 nm. Linearity was obtained in the concentration range of 0.025-50 μg/ml for lamivudine and 0.15-50 μg/ml for zidovudine. All of the proposed methods have been extensively validated. These methods allow a number of cost and time saving benefits. The described methods can be readily utilized for analysis of pharmaceutical formulations. There was no significant difference between the performance of all of the proposed methods regarding the mean values and standard deviations. The described HPLC method showed to be appropriate for simultaneous determination of lamivudine and zidovudine in human serum samples.     

Determination of strontium and simultaneous determination of strontium oxide, magnesium oxide and calcium oxide content of Portland cement by derivative ratio spectrophotometry

A derivative spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of strontium in Portland cement. The method is applied successfully for the simultaneous determination of SrO, MgO and CaO. It is based on the use of Alizarin Complexone (AC) as a complexing agent and measurement of the derivative ratio spectra of the analytes. Interferences of manganese(II) and zinc(II) were eliminated by precipitation. The validity of the method was examined by analyzing several Standard Reference Material (SRM) Portland cement samples. The strontium complex formed at pH 9.5 allows precise and accurate determination of strontium over the concentration range of 1.5-18 mg L⁻¹ of strontium. The MDL (at 95% confidence level) was found to be 25 ng mL⁻¹ for strontium in National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) cement samples using the proposed method.     

Simultaneous determination of chlorophyll a and chlorophyll b by derivative spectrophotometry

Chlorophyll a (Chl a) and chlorophyll b (Chl b) plant pigments, which are important in the food industry and are beneficial as environmental pollution indicators, have been extracted with a novel solvent mixture (1:1 v/v acetone–propanol) not containing chloroform and simultaneously determined by first-derivative spectrophotometry. The results were statistically compared to those obtained by the ordinary absorption spectrophotometric reference utilizing the principle of additivity of absorbances. The testing of the developed method in synthetic mixtures of Chl a and Chl b and in real plant material samples (grass, spinach, chard, purslane, black cabbage, crisp lettuce, rocket, dill and seaweed) proved successful in that the developed extractive derivative spectrophotometric method was both rapid and precise, and was not dependent on the Chl a/b ratio in contrast to the reference method which was adversely affected by the latter parameter.     

Determination of subnanomolar concentrations of cobalt by adsorptive stripping voltammetry at a bismuth film electrode

Procedures for trace cobalt determinations by adsorptive stripping voltammetry at in situ and ex situ plated bismuth film electrodes are presented. These exploit the enhancement of the cobalt peak obtained by using the Co(II)–dimethylglyoxime–cetyltrimethylammonium bromide–piperazine-N,N-bis(2-ethanesulfonic acid) system. The calibration graph for an accumulation time of 120 s was linear from 2 × 10^–10 to 2 × 10^–8 mol L^–1. The relative standard deviation from five determinations of cobalt at a concentration of 5 × 10^–9 mol L^–1 was 5.2%. The detection limit for an accumulation time of 300 s was 1.8 × 10^–11 mol L^–1. The proposed procedure was applied to cobalt determination in certified reference materials and in tap and river water samples.

Determination of palladium, platinum and gold by first derivative spectrophotometry

Summary The application of first-derivative spectrometry to the simultaneous determination of palladium(II), platinum(IV) and gold(III) is described. Light absorption of stable chlorocomplexes formed in 1 mol/l hydrochloric acid provides the basis of their determinations. A difference in the derivative amplitudes between two first-derivative zero crossing points of one metal A is read, corrected for the contribution of metal B and used for quantitation of metal C. Palladium (0.48–20 g ml^–1), platinum (0.16–24 g ml^–1) and gold (0.32–24 g ml^–1) have been determined with good precision and accuracy without any separations. Results are also presented for the simultaneous determination of the three precious metals in the presence of several major constituents.

Individual and simultaneous determination of lead, cadmium, and zinc by anodic stripping voltammetry at a bismuth bulk electrode

A bismuth bulk electrode (BiBE) has been investigated as an alternative electrode for the anodic stripping voltammetric (ASV) analysis of Pb(II), Cd(II), and Zn(II). The BiBE, which is fabricated in-house, shows results comparable to those of similar analyses at other Bi-based electrodes. Metal accumulation is achieved by holding the electrode potential at −1.4 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) for 180 s followed by a square wave voltammetric stripping scan from −1.4 to −0.35 V. Calibration plots are obtained for all three metals, individually and simultaneously, in the10-100 μg L⁻¹ range, with a detection limit of 93, 54, and 396 ng L⁻¹ for Pb(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), respectively. A slight reduction in slope is observed for Cd(II) and Pb(II) when the three metals are calibrated simultaneously vs. individually. Comparing the sensitivities of the metals when calibrated individually vs. in a mixture reveals that Zn(II) is not affected by stripping in a mixture. However, Pb(II) and Cd(II) have decreasing sensitivities in a mixture. The optimized method has been successfully used to test contaminated river water by standard addition. The results demonstrate the ability of the BiBE as an alternative electrode material in heavy metal analysis.
