Trace level voltammetric determination of manganese, iron and chromium in real samples in the presence of each other

The determination of manganese in the presence of iron and chromium by differential pulse voltammetry and fundamental harmonic alternating current voltammetry was compared, including the case of very high element concentration ratios. The voltammetric measurements were carried out using a stationary mercury electrode in ammonia-ammonium chloride buffer (pH 9.6). The analytical procedure was verified by the analysis of the standard reference materials Portland Cement BCS 372, Spectrographic Zinc Spelter NBS-SRM 631, Stainless Steel (AISI 321) NBS-SRM 121d and Highly Alloyed Steel Eurostandard 281-1. Precision and accuracy, expressed as relative standard deviation and relative error respectively, were of the order of 3-5%, while the detection limit for each element was around 1 x 10(-9) M. The standard addition technique improved the resolution of the voltammetric methods, within a maximum experimental error of 5%, even in the case of very high concentration ratios, that is outside the non-interference concentration ratios 69:1 >c(Fe):c(Mn) > 1:74; 35:1 > c(Fe):c(Cr) > 1:30 and 63:1 > c(Fe):c(Mn) > 1:65; 32:1 > c(Fe):c(Cr) > 1:31 for the differential pulse and alternating current techniques respectively, extrapolating the linear section of the i(p) vs. concentration analytical calibration function for the element present at the lowest concentration. In contrast, the element with the greatest concentration was determined by the relevant calibration curve.

分光光度法同时测定两个干扰组份的研究 I.多波长数据线性回归法及其应用于同时测定微量锰和锌的探讨

In this paper, a linear regression method of multiwavelength data is proposed. The method, based on the difference of molar absorptivity between two coloured chelates at murti-wavelengths, can be applied to simultaneous spectrophotometric determination of two-interfering-component systems in the visible region. As an example, the availability as well as the optimum condition for simultaneous determination of Mn and Zn with 5-Br-PADAP in the presence of nonionic surfactant Triton X-100 have been studied. Measure the absorbance at 15 wavelengths over the range of 540-584 nm and treat the data with the suggested method, the linear correlation coefficients (γ) are found to be 0.998 in the synthetic mixtures containing microamounts of Mn and Zn with the concentration ratio from 1:10 to 10:1. The recoveries of both elements are 95-120% with the relative standard deviations (N=5) less than 17%. the method has been successfully used for direct determination of Mn and Zn in tap water. The new method proposed in this work is simple, fast and can be used for the analysis of two-interfering-component systems.     

Mixed reagents in multicomponent flow-injection analysis Simultaneous determination of iron and copper in blood serum with mixed bathocuproinedisulphonate and bathophenanthrolinedisulphonate or ferrozine

Mixtures of 0.6mM bathocuproinedisulphonate (BC) and 0.2mM bathophenanthrolinedisulphonate (BP) or 2mM BC and 0.2mM ferrozine (FZ) were used for a rapid determination of iron and copper in deproteinated blood serum in the presence of 0.1M formate buffer (pH 3.5), 10mM ascorbic acid and 0.3M trichloroacetic acid, by two variants of multicomponent FIA with a diode-array detector (MC-FIA). Merging zones MC-FIA is especially suitable for the determination of 0.7-33muM Fe and 0.4-35muMCu, for Cu:Fe concentration ratios from 10:1 to 1:10and with RSD <3 or 2% for Fe or RSD <6 or 5% for Cu in artificial mixtures and deproteinated standard blood sera, respectively, and relative errors of less than 3-5%. The concentrations of both elements were calculated according to a simple computer program (ORTHO) for overdetermined systems (10 or 11 wavelengths), but evaluation at the absorption maxima for the individual chelates (at 2 or 3 wavelengths) also gave satisfactory results.     

Sequential determination of nickel(II) and zirconium(IV) with dimethylglyoxime and arsenazo III after adsoprtion on one substrate disc

The possibility of the sequential determination of nickel with dimethylglyoxime and zirconium with arsenazo III from a single aliquot portion using polyacrylonitrile fiber as a solid phase impregnated with a KU-2 cation exchanger is studied. Conditions for the simultaneous adsorption of nickel and zirconium in the dynamic mode from 0.01 M HNO₃ are found as along with the ones for their sequential determination on one disc. The calibration functions are linear in the range 5–50 ng/mL, the detection limits for both elements are 2 ng/mL. In their simultaneous presence, the determination of nickel and zirconium is not affected by 10-fold weight amounts of Fe(III), Cu(II), Co(II), Al, Mn(II), Pb, Zn, Cd, Cr(VI), Mo(VI), and V(V). A method is proposed for determining nickel and zirconium from a single aliquot portion on a single substrate disc at their ratios from 1: 1 to a 5-fold excess of each element.     

Simultaneous Determination of Nickel and cobalt in Manganese Sulphate Electrolyte by DMGH2-Sensitized Differential Pulse Polarography

Abstract

A method is described for the simultaneous determination of nickel and cobalt in manganese sulphate electrolyte by the dimethylglyoxime (DMGH₂) sensitized differential pulse polarography. The high manganese sulphate background (1.2M) in the concentrated process plant electrolyte interferes only with the nickel determination and precludes its direct determination. A 50% v/v dilution and an excessive amount (2 × 10^?3M) of the chelating agent are required at pH7.7 for the reliable determination of both elements. Under these conditions, the linear concentration ranges are 0-110 μg/1 for nickel and 0-140 μg/1 for cobalt. The minimum detectable amounts above the levels present in the process plant electrolyte are 2 μg/1 and 1 μg/1 for both elements, respectively. The relative standard deviations for all measurements are between 1 and 3%.     

Spectrophotometric studies on the complexation equilibria of Ni and Pb with 2-carboxy-2-hydroxy-5'-sulfo-formazylbenzene. Simultaneous determination of trace amounts of Ni and Pb

Spectrophotometric studies have been made to investigate the reaction of Nickel and Lead with 2-carboxy-2'-hydroxy-5'-sulfoformazyl-benzene (zincon) in 50%(v/v) ethanol-water at 25 degrees C and an ionic strength of 0.1 M NaClO4. A complete picture of the complexation equilibria in the pH range (4.2-12.0) for nickel and (1.9-11.5) for lead are presented. Simple, rapid, selective and sensitive methods for the spectro-photometric determination of nickel and lead has been developed based on the color reaction of their complexes with zincon. The methods allow the determination of 4.69 microg mL(-1) of nickel at pH = 6.3 (lambdamax = 665 nm) and 10.3 microg ml(-1) of lead at pH = 5.6 (lambdamax = 610 nm). The apparent molar absorptivities were epsilon = 1.3 x 10(4) L mol(-1) cm(-1) for nickel and epsilon = 0.6 x 10(4) L mol(-1) cm(-1) for lead. The interference of a large number of foreign ions and complexing agents has been studied. Thiosulphate, as masking agent allows the simultaneous determination of nickel and lead in the presence of high concentrations of copper. Ascorbic acid, sodium cyanide and or sodium fluoride provide the elimination of many other interferences. The methods have been applied successfully to the simultaneous determination of nickel and lead in an aluminium and non-ferrous alloy.     

Simultaneous determination of tin and lead by a.c. anodic stripping voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode sensitized by cetyltrimethylammoniu

The influence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) on the simultaneous determination of tin(IV) and lead(II) by anodic stripping voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) in a 0.1 M hydrochloric acid—0.1 M oxalic acid medium was studied using d.c. and a.c. stripping. In the presence of CTAB, tin and lead show voltammetric peaks separated by 100 mV, the sensitivity depending on the concentration of CTAB. The best conditions for the simultaneous determination of both elements (2 × 10^-3 M) were found. A method is proposed for the determination of tin in the presence of lead and three procedures are given for the determination of lead in the presence of tin.     

Simultaneous determination of Cd, Pb, Cu, Sb, Bi, Se, Zn, Mn, Ni, Co and Fe in water samples by differential pulse stripping voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode

A highly sensitive and selective voltammetric procedure is described for the simultaneous determination of eleven elements (Cd, Pb, Cu, Sb, Bi, Se, Zn, Mn, Ni, Co and Fe) in water samples. Firstly, differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) with a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) is used for the direct simultaneous determination of Cd, Pb, Cu, Sb and Bi in 0.1 M HCI solution (pH = 1) containing 2 M NaCl. Then, differential pulse cathodic stripping voltammetry (DPCSV) is used for the determination of Se in the same solution. Zn is subsequently determined by DPASV after raising the pH of the same solution to pH 4. Next, the pH of the medium is raised to pH 8.5 by adding NH3/NH4Cl buffer solution for the determination of Mn by DPASV. Ni and Co are determined in the same solution by differential pulse adsorptive stripping voltammetry (DPAdSV) after adding DMG (1 x 10(-4) M). Finally, 1 x 10(-5) M 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol (5-Br-PADAP) is added to the solution for the determination of Fe by DPAdSV. The optimal conditions are described. Relative standard deviations and relative errors are calculated for the eleven elements at three different concentration levels. The lower detection limits for the investigated elements range from 1.11 x 10(-10) to 1.05 x 10(-9)M, depending on the element determined. The proposed analysis scheme was applied for the determination of these eleven elements in some ground water samples.     

Simultaneous voltammetric determination of toxic metals in sediments

Voltammetric methods are very suitable, versatile and rapid techniques for the simultaneous metal determination in complex matrices. The work, regarding the determination of As(III), Se(IV) and Mn(II), is a very interesting example of the possibility for simultaneously determining each single element in real samples in a wide range of concentration ratios. The differential pulse (DPV) measurements were carried out using a conventional three-electrode cell, while ammonia-ammonium chloride buffer (pH 9.6) was employed as the supporting electrolyte. The analytical procedure was verified by the analyses of standard reference materials: estuarine sediment BCR-CRM 277 and river sediment BCR-CRM 320. Precision and accuracy, expressed as relative S.D. and relative error, respectively, were in all cases of the order of 3-5%, while the detection limit for each element was around 10(-8) M. The standard addition technique improved the resolution of the voltammetric method, even in the case of very high element concentration ratios.     

Simultaneous determination of paclitaxel and a new P-glycoprotein inhibitor HM-30181 in rat plasma by liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometry

An LC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of a new P-glycoprotein inhibitor 4-oxo-4H-chromene-2-carboxylic acid [2-(2-(4-[2-(6,7-dimethoxy-3,4-dihydro-1H-isoquinolin-2-yl)-ethyl]-phenyl)-2H-tetrazol-5-yl)-4,5-dimethoxy-phenyl]-amide (HM-30181) and a P-glycoprotein substrate paclitaxel in rat plasma was developed to simultaneously evaluate the pharmacokinetics of paclitaxel and HM-30181 in the rats. HM-30181, paclitaxel, HM-30059 (internal standard (I.S.) for HM-30181), and docetaxel (I.S. for paclitaxel) were extracted from rat plasma with methyl-tert-butyl ether and analyzed on an Atlantis C18 column (5 microm, 2.1 x 100 mm) with the mobile phase of ACN/10 mM ammonium formate (75:25 v/v). The analytes were detected using an ESI MS/MS in the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mode. The standard curves for HM-30181 and paclitaxel in plasma were linear (r > 0.999) over the concentration range of 2.0-500 ng/mL with a weighting of 1/concentration2. The method showed a satisfactory sensitivity (2 ng/mL using 50 microL plasma), precision (CV: < or = 6.6%), accuracy (relative error: -6.3 to 2.0%), and selectivity. This method was successfully applied to the pharmacokinetic study of HM-30181 and paclitaxel in rat plasma after oral-coadministration of paclitaxel and HM-30181 to male Sprague- Dawley rats.     

Simultaneous determination of inulin and p-aminohippuric acid (PAH) in human plasma and urine by high-performance liquid chromatography

Inulin and p-aminohippuric acid (PAH) clearances are used for the estimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and effective renal plasma flow (ERPF). A simple and rapid high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method with UV detection is described for the simultaneous determination of inulin and PAH in the same chromatogram in the plasma and urine of humans. Plasma and urine samples were hydrolyzed with perchloric acid (0.7%) in boiling water. The mobile phase consisted of 0.01 M potassium dihydrogenphosphate with 0.02 M tetramethylammonium chloride and o-phosphoric acid (pH 3)-acetonitrile (94:6, v/v), pumped at a rate of 1.2 ml min-1 on a C8 reversed-phase column. Tannic acid was used as the internal standard and UV detection at 285 nm was employed. The calibration curves were linear over the concentration range of 12.5-100 mg l-1 for inulin and 6.25-50 mg l-1 for PAH with determination coefficients greater than 0.997. The method is accurate (bias < 13%) and reproducible (intra- and inter-day relative standard deviation less than 11%), with a limit of quantitation of 12.5 mg l-1 and 6.25 mg l-1 for inulin and PAH, respectively. Analytical recoveries from urine and plasma were ranged from 81 to 108% for both compounds. This fully validated method, which allows the simultaneous determination of inulin and PAH clearances, is simple, rapid (total run time < 10 min) and requires only a 200 microliters plasma or urine sample.     

Simultaneous determination of 18alpha- and 18beta-glycyrrhetic acid in human plasma by LC-ESI-MS and its application to pharmacokinetics

A highly sensitive and selective LC-ESI-MS was developed, validated for the simultaneous determination of 18alpha-glycyrrhetic acid (alpha-GA) and 18beta-glycyrrhetic acid (beta-GA) for pharmacokinetic studies in healthy subjects. Sample preparation was performed by liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate and the separations were achieved using a C(18) column with the mobile phase composed of 10 mmol/L ammonium acetate solution-methanol-acetonitrile (40:36:24, v/v/v) at a flow rate of 1 mL/min. The internal standard was honokiol and the epimers were quantified using a single quadrupole mass spectrometer employing ESI in the negative ion mode. The separation factor, alpha, was 1.512 for alpha- and beta-GA. The standard curves were linear for both epimers with coefficients of determination (r >or= 0.9998) over the concentration range of 1-150 ng/mL. The precision and accuracy were 相似文献   

Simultaneous Potentiostatic Coulometric Determination of Platinum and Palladium

Based on a voltammetric study of the electrochemical behavior of Pt(IV) and Pd(II) in a 1 M HCl + 0.1 M ethylenediamine hydrochloride solution at a carbon–graphite electrode, we have found the optimum conditions for the simultaneous determination of 0.2 to 3 mg of platinum and palladium with a relative standard deviation of less than 0.5%.The oxidation reactions were Pd(0) Pd(II) and Pt(II) Pt(IV). Mass excesses of analytes of 3.5- to 4.5-fold with respect to each other did not interfere with the determination of individual elements. With alternate cathodic and anodic polarization of the electrode, these elements can be multiply determined in a single portion of solution. The procedure was used for the simultaneous determination of platinum and palladium in process solutions of KP-1 platinum concentrate after the separation of gold and silver and also in platinum- and palladium-based alloys.     

Complexation of aluminium, yttrium, lanthanum and lanthanides with 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (par)

The sensitive reactions between 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR) and yttrium, lanthanum and the lanthanides can be used for the spectrophotometric determination of these elements. The method has no advantage over other methods for the determination of aluminium and lanthanum. Only M(PAR)H and M(PAR) complexes are formed in solutions where the molarity of the metal ion is greater than or nearly equal to the molarity of the ligand at pH < 7-5. If there is molar excess of PAR, 1:2 complexes may be formed but this is certain only for the yttrium-PAR system. Errors in analysis may result from the simultaneous occurrence of optically different complexes; close control of pH and reagent concentration is essential. Optical and equilibrium data are given for the systems investigated.     

Determination of the antiplatelet agent. KB-3022, and its metabolite by high-performance liquid chromatography

A rapid, accurate and reproducible high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the simultaneous determination of a new antiplatelet agent, ethyl 2-[4,5-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)thiazol-2-yl]pyrrol-1-ylacetate (KB-3022), and its main metabolite, 2-[4,5-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)thiazol-2-yl]pyrrol-1-ylacetic acid (desethyl KB-3022), in biological fluids has been developed. KB-3022 and desethyl KB-3022 in plasma or urine were extracted with a mixture of n-hexane and dichloromethane (1:1), separated on a reversed-phase C18 column with a mixture of 0.01 M (NH4)2HPO4 (pH 3.0), acetonitrile and isopropyl alcohol as a mobile phase, and quantitated by ultraviolet absorbance measurement at 340 nm. 4-[2-(4,5-bis(4-methoxyphenyl)thiazol-2-yl)pyrrol-1-yl]butyric acid was used as an internal standard. The detection limit of KB-3022 in plasma was 3 ng/ml, and that of KB-3022 in urine and desethyl KB-3022 in plasma or urine was 1 ng/ml. The coefficients of variation for the determination of KB-3022 or desethyl KB-3022 in plasma or urine were below 5.6%. This method was applied to the determination of the plasma concentration of KB-3022 and desethyl KB-3022 after intravenous administration to rats.     

Extraction of PCDD/PCDF from soil with supercritical CO2: Optimization by a three-level factorial design approach

A highly sensitive and selective voltammetric procedure is described for the simultaneous determination of eleven elements (Cd, Pb, Cu, Sb, Bi, Se, Zn, Mn, Ni, Co and Fe) in water samples. Firstly, differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) with a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) is used for the direct simultaneous determination of Cd, Pb, Cu, Sb and Bi in 0.1 M HCl solution (pH = 1) containing 2 M NaCl. Then, differential pulse cathodic stripping voltammetry (DPCSV) is used for the determination of Se in the same solution. Zn is subsequently determined by DPASV after raising the pH of the same solution to pH 4. Next, the pH of the medium is raised to pH 8.5 by adding NH₃/NH₄Cl buffer solution for the determination of Mn by DPASV. Ni and Co are determined in the same solution by differential pulse adsorptive stripping voltammetry (DPAdSV) after adding DMG (1 × 10^–4 M). Finally, 1 × 10^–5 M 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol (5-Br-PADAP) is added to the solution for the determination of Fe by DPAdSV. The optimal conditions are described. Relative standard deviations and relative errors are calculated for the eleven elements at three different concentration levels. The lower detection limits for the investigated elements range from 1.11 × 10^–10 to 1.05 × 10^–9 M, depending on the element determined. The proposed analysis scheme was applied for the determination of these eleven elements in some ground water samples.     

Simultaneous determination of thiocyanate and salicylate by a combined UV-spectrophotometric detection principal component artificial neural network

A modified principle component artificial neural network (PC-ANN) model is developed for simultaneous determination of thiocyanate and salycilate concentration after passing through the bulk of a liquid membrane by tri-phenyl benzyl phosphonium chloride. All calibration, and test samples data were obtained using UV-Vis spectrophotometer. In this way, a modified PC-ANN consisting of three layers of nodes was trained by combination of Bayesian-Levenberg-Marquardt as training rule. Sigmoid and liner transfer functions were used in the hidden and output layers respectively to facilitate nonlinear calibration. The model could accurately estimate the concentration of components with acceptable precision and accuracy, for mixtures. The PC-ANN model exhibits a good ability for the simultaneous determination of the thiocyanate and salycilate in concentration range 0.5 x 10(-4) mol.l(-1) up to 5.0 x 10(-4) mol.l(-1) with Root Mean square error (2.22% and 2.20%, for thiocyanate and salycilate, respectively) and high correlation coefficients (R2= 0.998 or greater). Results obtained with modified trained PC-ANN were compared with stepwise linear regression (SMLR) model. Validation of the two models shows a better ability in estimation of the modified PC-ANN as compared with the SMLR model (MSRE given are 3.12%, 6.31%.).     

Use of Two-Layer Supports for the Sorption–Spectrometric Determination of Chromium(VI), Copper(II), and Nickel(II) from a Single Sample in a Flow System

The determination of three elements from a single sample on a two-layer support in the flow mode was studied. One layer is a disk of a fiber material filled with the AV-17 anion exchanger, and the other is a disk of a material filled with the KU-2 cation exchanger. The method is based on the simultaneous preconcentration of elements by pumping a test sample through two disks in a flow cell, the separation of layers, and subsequent detection of chromium on the support filled with AV-17 using 1,5-diphenylcarbazide. The support filled with KU-2 is used for the sequential determination of nickel with dimethylglyoxime and copper with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate in 1 M HCl. The nickel dimethylglyoximate is decomposed under the action of 1 M HCl; its 10-fold amounts do not interfere with the determination of copper. This method provides the determination of chromium, copper, and nickel at a level below the maximum permissible concentration for potable water; at the ratio Cr : Ni : Cu = 1 : 10 : 20, RSD is lower than 10%. The time of the determination of the three elements from a single sample is 25–30 min.
