Determination of Diammonium Glycyrrhizinate and Its Antioxidant Activity Using a Novel Chemiluminescence System

A novel chemiluminescence (CL) system was established for the determination of diammonium glycyrrhizinate (DG) in pharmaceutical preparations and its ability of scavenging hydroxyl radical. It was shown that a strong CL signal was observed when Eosin Y mixed with Fenton reagent. The CL intensity was decreased significantly when DG was added to the reaction system and partially scavenged the hydroxyl radicals in the solution. The extent of decrease in the CL intensity had a good stoichiometrical relationship with DG concentration. Based on this, we developed a new method for the determination of DG using a flow injection chemiluminescence (FI-CL) technique. Under the optimal conditions, the linear range of DG concentration was 6.0 × 10^?8–5.0 × 10^?6 mol/L (R = 0.9982) with a detection limit of 8.0 × 10^?9 mol/L (SN = 3), and the RSD was 3.8% for 2.0 × 10^?7 mol/L DG (n = 11). This method was successfully used in the determination of DG in tablets and the evaluation of hydroxyl radical scavenging capacity of DG. The possible reaction mechanism of the CL system is discussed.     

Determination of Genistein by Flow‐injection Chemiluminescence Method Based on Ferricyanide Oxidation Sensitized by Rhodamine 6G

A novel flow injection chemiluminescence (FI‐CL) method for the determination of genistein was described. The method was based on the reaction between genistein and potassium ferricyanide in alkaline solution to give weak CL signal, which was dramatically enhanced by rhodamine 6G (Rh G). The CL emission allowed quantitation of genistein concentration in the range 1.0 × 10^?7–4.0 × 10^?5 mol/L with a detection limit (3σ) of 4.2 × 10^?8 mol/L. The relative standard deviation for 11 parallel measurements of 5.0 × 10^?7 mol/L, 4.0 × 10^?6 mol/L and 1.0 × 10^?5 mol/L genistein were 2.59%, 2.40% and 1.48%, respectively. The experimental conditions for the CL reaction were optimized and the possible reaction mechanism was discussed. The method was applied to the determination of genistein in biological fluids.     

ClO3--SO32--Rh6G-SDBS体系的化学发光及其用于亚硫酸根测定

Based on the micelle synergism mechanism, a chemiluminescence （CL） flow system for the determination of sulfite was described. The CL signal generated from the reaction of chlorate with sulfite in acidic solution was very weak, while the interfusion of sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate （SDBS） resulted in a highly chemiluminescent intensity. The major goal of this work was to investigate and develop the SDBS rnicelle synergetic CL system. The mechanism was proposed and proved by spectrometry. The results indicated that the unique structure of SDBS micelles prorooted the aggregation of rhodamine 6G （Rh6G） and a much easier energy transfer, leading to a marked shift to red in the CL emission. This CL system was developed for the determination of sulfite and the concentration of sulfite was proportional to the CL intensity in the range of 5.0× 10^-8--1.0× 10^-5 mol/L with the detection limit of 1.7×10^-8 mol/L （S/N=3）. The relative standard deviation was 3.3% for 1.0×10^ 6 mol/L sulfite solution with eleven repeated measurements. This method was successfully applied to the determination of sulfite in powder sugar.

A new chemiluminescence (CL) reaction was observed when cloperastine hydrochloride was injected into the reaction mixture after the CL reaction of Ce(IV) and sodium sulfite finished. A new flow injection CL method for the determination of cloperastine hydrochloride was established based on the CL reaction. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for the determination of cloperastine hydrochloride was 1.3% (n=11, c=1.0×10^?6 g/mL).

The detection limit was 5×10^?8 g/mL cloperastine hydrochloride. The method had been applied to the determination of cloperastine hydrochloride in tablets with satisfactory results.     

Determination of Rifampicin by Peroxomonosulfate‐Cobalt(II) Chemiluminescence System

Rifampicin can enhance the chemiluminescence (CL) of peroxomonosulfate‐cobalt(II) system, and the CL intensity is strongly dependent on the rifampicin concentrations. Based on this phenomenon, a rapid and sensitive flow injection CL method was developed for the determination of rifampicin. The relative CL intensity was linear with the rifampicin concentration over the range of 5×10^?8 to 1×10^?6 g·mL^?1 (r=0.9991), the detection limit was 7×10^?9 g·mL^?1 (S/N=3), and the relative standard deviation was 2.7% for 6×10^?7 g·mL^?1 rifampicin (n=11). Furthermore, this method was successfully applied to the determination of rifampicin in real eye drop and capsules sample.

Determination of trace amounts of chromium (VI) by flow injection analysis with chemiluminescence detection

A new sensitive chemiluminescence (CL) method combined with continuous flow injection analysis is described for the determination of Cr(VI). Strong CL signals were generated by Cr(VI)-catalysed oxidation of gallic acid in the presence of potassium permanganate and hydrogen peroxide. Effects of reagent concentrations, temperature, pH, flow rates, mixing coil length and mixing flow sequences on the chemiluminescence intensity were studied. Under the optimised experimental conditions, the relationship between the logarithm of concentration (log?C) of Cr(VI) and the logarithm of intensity (log?I) is linear over the range of 2?×?10^?11 – 5?×?10^?4?mol?L^?1, with the detection limit (3σ) of 4?×?10^?12?mol?L^?1. Relative standard deviation of ten measurements of 1?×?10^?9?mol?L^?1 Cr(VI) is 1.7%. This flow injection analysis (FIA) system proved to be able to analyse up to 40 samples h^?1. Effects of various interferences possibly present in the water samples were investigated. Most cations and anions, as well as organic compounds, did not interfere with the determination of Cr(VI) in water samples. The experimental results obtained for chromium in reference materials were also in good agreement with the certified values.     

A Chemiluminescence Reaction Between Hydroxyl Radical and Rhodamine 6G and its Applications

Abstract

A novel chemiluminescence (CL) reaction between hydroxyl radical and ascorbic acid is described in this paper. Hydroxyl radical generated on line by the reaction between Fe³⁺ solution and H₂O₂ solution in HCl medium could oxidize rhodamine 6G to produce weak chemiluminescence. It was found that ascorbic acid could enhance the chemiluminescence and the excited rhodamine 6G was the emitter of the chemiluminescence reaction. The possible mechanism of the CL system was also discussed. Ascorbic acid can be determined in the range of 2.0×10^?6?8.0×10^?4 mg/ml with a detection limit of 1×10^?6 mg/ml (3σ). A complete analysis could be done in 1 minute with the relative standard deviation of 3.1% for 5.0×10^?5 mg/ml (n=11). In order to study the chemiluminescence reaction further, the application to the determination of ascorbic acid in food using the chemiluminescence reaction combined with flow injection is investigated.     

A Sensitive Photoinduced Chemiluminescence Method for the Determination of Riboflavin with Flow Injection Analysis

ABSTRACT

A sensitive chemiluminescence (CL) induced by light for the determination of riboflavin with flow injection analysis is developed. Riboflavin shows a strong enhancement effect on the CL reaction of luminol oxidized by periodate after the photochemical reaction of riboflavin in alkaline solution, and the enhancing effect of riboflavin disappears under dark conditions. Oxygen can further improve the enhancing effect of the riboflavin in this CL system, and the effects were also investigated. And based on this phenomenon, a very sensitive method of various surfactants, β-cyclodextrin and organic solvents on this CL system for the determination of riboflavin was described. The range of the linear response for riboflavin using this method is ca. 2.4×10^?8 ~ 1.0 × 10^?6 mol/L, and the detection limit (S/N = 3) is l.0×10^?8 mol/L. The applicability of the method was demonstrated by the determination of riboflavin in pharmaceutical preparation.

A new method for the determination of baicalin in Scutellariae Radix extract and its preparations by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupling with flow injection chemiluminescence detection (FIA‐CL) has been developed. The method was based on the chemiluminescence reaction of potassium permanganate with baicalin in nitric acid medium; the CL intensity can be enhanced by formaldehyde. In this study, the conditions of chemiluminescence and chromatography were examined, and the schematic diagram of the HPLC‐FIA‐CL analyzer was optimized. The analytes were separated on Hypersil RP‐C18 columns (100 × 4.6 mm, I.D., 5 μm) by equality elution with 47:53 (v/v) methanol‐0.3% phosphoric acid as a mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.8 mL·min^?1 and a column temperature of 40 °C. Under the optimum condition, the CL intensity was proportional to the concentration of baicalin over the range of 4.10 × 10^?7 ? 6.15 × 10^?5mol·L^?1. The limit of detection (S/N = 3) was 2.79 × 10^?7mol·L^?1 with the relative standard deviation 2.5% (Cs = 6.15 × 10^?6 mol·L^?1, n = 5). The method has been applied to the determination of baicalin in Scutellariae Radix extract and its preparations, and satisfactory results were obtained.

Determination of Tryptophan in Pharmaceutical Formulations Using a Sequential Injection–Zone Fluidic–Chemiluminescence Tubular Reactor

Tryptophan is an important amino acid for humans with a significant role in cell metabolism. Depletion of tryptophan in the human body may contribute to diseases and development of disorders among the human population. It is, therefore, very important to have a reliable, stable, sustainable, and cost-effective analytical method for the determination of tryptophan. Tryptophan was determined using sequential injection–zone fluidics analysis with luminol–hydrogen peroxide and the Firefly with its unique liquid core waveguide flow-cell design as chemiluminescence tubular reactor with a high-sensitivity photomultiplier tube. This was based on an intense chemiluminescence formation of tryptophan in luminol–hydrogen peroxide inside the tubular reactor for measurement. The chemiluminescence intensity was linear with tryptophan in the range of 1.0?×?10^?6 to 1.0?×?10^?3?mol/L, and the limit of detection was 7.5?×?10^?7?mol/L. The precision for the method was 3.6% (relative standard deviation) for six measurements of 1.0?×?10^?4?mol/L tryptophan. The proposed method has been used to determine tryptophan in pharmaceutical formulations. The system is relatively fast for online assays. Eighty seconds are required to complete one cycle providing a throughput of 45 samples/h. The proposed sequential injection analysis–zone fluidics–chemiluminescence system for the assay of tryptophan in certain specific pharmaceutical capsules is simple, reliable, sustainable, and convenient with relatively low-cost consumption of reagents.

A new flow injection chemiluminescence method for the determination of phenol was proposed, based upon the chemiluminescence reaction of phenol, N-bromosuccinimide, and hydrogen peroxide in neutral aqueous medium in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide surfactant micelles. The chemiluminescence signal was proportional to the concentration of phenol in the range of 1.0 × 10^?7?8.0 × 10^?6 g/mL with a detection limit of 3 × 10^?8 g/mL. The relative standard deviation for 1.0 × 10^?6 g/mL phenol solution was 2.0% (n = 11). The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of phenol in phenol ear drops. A possible CL reaction mechanism was also discussed briefly.     

Flow injection determination of hydrogen peroxide using diperiodatoargentate- and diperiodatonickelate-luminol chemiluminescence

A novel chemiluminescence (CL) method for the determination of hydrogen peroxide is described. Method is based on the transition metals in highest oxidation state complex, which include diperiodatoargentate (DPA) and diperiodatonickelate (DPN) and show excellent sensitisation on the luminol-H₂O₂ CL reaction with low luminol concentration in alkaline medium. In particular, the sensitiser which was previously reported (such as Co²⁺, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺, Mn²⁺, Fe³⁺, Cr³⁺, KIO₄, K₃Fe(CN)₆ etc.) to be unobserved CL due to poor sensitisation with such low concentration of luminol which makes the method hold high selectivity. Based on this observation, the detection limits were 6.5?×?10^?9?mol?L^?1 and 1.1?×?10^?8?mol?L^?1 hydrogen peroxide for the DPN- and DPA-luminol CL systems, respectively. The relative CL intensity was linear with the hydrogen peroxide concentration in the range of 2.0?×?10^?8–6.0?×?10^?6?mol?L^?1 and 4.0?×?10^?8–4.0?×?10^?6?mol?L^?1 for the DPN- and DPA-luminol CL systems, respectively. The proposed method had good reproducibility with a relative standard deviation of 3.4% (8.0?×?10^?7?mol?L^?1, n?=?7) and 1.0% (2.0?×?10^?6?mol?L^?1, n?=?7) for the DPN- and DPA-luminol CL systems, respectively. A satisfactory result has been gained for the determination of H₂O₂ in rainwater and artificial lake water by use of the proposed method.

A sensitive method for the determination of total chromium in real samples by flow injection–chemiluminescence (FI–CL) analysis was proposed. It was found that the CL intensity from luminol–lysozyme reaction could be markedly quenched, and the decrease of CL intensity was linear with the logarithm of Cr(III) concentrations over the range of 5.0 to 4000 pg mL^?1 with a detection limit of 2.0 pg mL^?1 (3σ) and relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 3.0, 2.6, and 2.0% for 10, 100, and 1000 pg mL^?1 Cr(III) (n = 7), respectively. At a flow rate of 2.0 mL min^?1, the whole process including sampling and washing could be accomplished within 36 s. The proposed CL method was successfully applied to the determination of total chromium in pharmaceutical capsules, a dietary supplement, and spiked human serum samples, with recoveries from 92.2 to 108.4% and RSDs of less than 4.0%. Using the homemade FI–CL model, the binding constant (K = 4.38 × 10⁶ L mol^?1) and the binding sites (n ≈ 1) of Cr(III) to lysozyme were given.

A flow injection post chemiluminescence (FI-PCL) reaction was found when astemizole was mixed with the CL reaction mixture of N-bromosuccinimide and calcein under alkaline conditions. Based on this observation, a simple and sensitive post chemiluminescence (PCL) technique for the assay of astemizole was described. Under the optimized conditions, the PCL values responded linearly to the concentration of astemizole in the range 1.0 × 10^?3–3.0 µg/mL, with a detection limit of 7.0 × 10^?4 µg/mL. The relative standard deviation was 1.7% for 1.0 × 10^?2 µg/mL astemizole solution (n = 13). It was applied to the determination of astemizole in pharmaceutical preparations with satisfactory results.

A highly sensitive automated sequential‐injection chemiluminescence (SIA‐CL) method for determination of glucosamine sulphate (GLS) was developed. The goal of the present work is the evaluation of the enhancement effect of the investigated drug glucosamine sulphate on the chemiluminescence reaction between luminol and H₂O₂ in alkaline medium of 1.0 × 10^?2 mol L^?1 sodium hydroxide at pH 11. The experimental conditions affecting the CL reaction such as the sequence of the reagents, concentrations, flow rate and aspirated volumes of reactants were systematically investigated and optimized. Under optimum conditions 50 μL of 1.0 × 10^?3 mol L^?1 luminol, 30 μL of a GLS test solution and 50 μL of 1.0 × 10^?2 mol L^?1 H₂O₂ were used and the luminescing zone was pushed into the detector at a flow rate 100 μL s^?1. The proposed method recorded high sensitivity, accuracy and simplicity that could be clarified as linear concentration range 1.0‐2000 ng mL^?1 with rectilinear part (r = 0.9992, n = 9) and limit of detection 0.3 ng mL^?1, along with relative standard deviation 1.3%. It was found that the developed method can be used directly to determine the investigated drug GLS in its pharmaceutical dosage forms and in spiked serum and urine by diluting the samples for a 1000 fold. The obtained results were statistically analyzed and compared with those obtained by the reported method.

Abstract

A post‐chemiluminescence (PCL) was observed when loperamide hydrochloride solution was injected into the reaction mixture after the finish of CL reaction of alkaline N‐Chlorosuccinimide (NCS) and dichlorofluorescein. Based on this phenomenon, a simple, sensitive and fast flow injection PCL method was established for the determination of loperamide hydrochloride. The possible mechanism for the PCL reaction was discussed via the investigation of the CL kinetic characteristics, the CL spectra, the fluorescence spectra. The PCL intensity responded linearly to the concentration of loperamide hydrochloride in the range 8.0×10^?10 to 6.0×10^?7 g · ml^?1 with a linear correlation of 0.9995. The detection limit was 4×10^?10 g · ml^?1. The relative standard deviation was 2.4% for 4.0×10^?8 g · ml^?1 loperamide hydrochloride (n=11). This method has been applied to the determination of loperamide hydrochloride in human plasma and pharmaceutical samples with satisfactory results.
