The proposed method was applied to the determination of ferulic acid in Taita Beauty Essence samples with satisfactory results.     

Chemiluminescence behavior based on oxidation reaction of rhodamine B with cerium(IV) in sulfuric acid medium

The chemiluminescence (CL) of the rhodamine B (RhB)-cerium(IV) system was investigated by flow-injection. Rhodamine B was suggested to be a suitable chemiluminescent reagent in acidic conditions. When the concentration of rhodamine B was 100 mg l⁻¹ and cerium sulfate was 1.6 mmol l⁻¹ in sulfuric acid, the chemiluminescent intensity was found to be highest by using 0.3 mol l⁻¹ sulfuric acid as a carrier solution. The particular chemiluminescent system could tolerate such distinct acidic environments that it was utilized for detecting many compounds that are stable in acidic solutions. Furthermore, by virtue of IR, UV-Vis and luminescence spectroscopic measurements, the chemiluminescent behavior of rhodamine B was studied and a possible mechanism for this chemiluminescent reaction was proposed. The emitter was affirmed to be a radical species due to one of the oxidation products of RhB; the chemiluminescent emissive wavelength was about 425 nm.

Determination of folic acid by chemiluminescence based on peroxomonosulfate-cobalt(II) system

Based on the chemiluminescence (CL) phenomena of folic acid in peroxomonosulfate-cobalt(II) system, a rapid and sensitive CL method was developed for determination of folic acid in pharmaceutical preparations and its urinary metabolism processes. Under the optimum conditions, the relative CL intensity was linear over the concentration ranging from 10⁻⁹ to 8 × 10⁻⁷ mol L⁻¹ (R² = 0.9991) with a detection limit as low as 6 × 10⁻¹⁰ mol L⁻¹ (S/N = 3) and relative standard deviation was 2.63% for 2 × 10⁻⁸ mol L⁻¹ folic acid (n = 11). This method has been successfully applied to the determination of folic acid in tablets and human urine. The blank CL emission was yielded owing to the formation of singlet oxygen molecular pair from the quenching experiment of 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane, and pterine-6-carboxylic acid might be the degradation intermediate in this system and it also acts an energy acceptor and sensitizes the chemiluminescence based on the studies of the CL and fluorescence spectra.     

Flow-injection chemiluminescence simultaneous determination of cobalt(II) and copper(II) using partial least squares calibration

A flow-injection chemiluminescence (CL) system is proposed for simultaneous determination of Co²⁺ and Cu²⁺ using partial least squares (PLS) calibration. This method is based on the fact that both Co²⁺ and Cu²⁺ catalyse the CL reaction of luminol-H₂O₂, and that their kinetic characteristics of Co²⁺ and Cu²⁺ are significantly different in the luminol-H₂O₂ system. The CL intensity was measured and recorder at different reaction times of luminol-H₂O₂Co²⁺Cu²⁺, and the obtained data were processed by the chemometric approach of partial least squares. The experimental calibration set was composed of 16 sample solutions using an orthogonal calibration design for two component mixtures. The proposed method offers the potential advantages of high sensitivity, simplicity and rapidity for Co²⁺ and Cu²⁺ determination, and was successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of both analytes in real water sample. The present paper demonstrated that the simultaneous determination of two metal ions without any prior separation has been possible using flow-injection CL system.

A simple, sensitive and selective chemiluminescence (CL) method was developed for the determination of cysteine. This method is based on that the weak CL of cysteine oxidized with cerium (IV) can be greatly enhanced by quinine. The calibration curve was linear over the range 3.5×10⁻⁹-3.5×10⁻⁶ M with a detection limit of 2.5×10⁻⁹ M (S/N=3). The RSD was found to be 8.4% by 10 replicate determinations of 2.9×10⁻⁸ M cysteine. Due to high sensitivity, the proposed method can be used directly to determine the total concentration of cysteine in human serum through simply diluting the sample for a thousand fold. The obtained result was in agreement with that given by amino acid autoanalyzer. The present method does not require any separation, showing a simpler analytical characteristic. The mechanism of the CL reaction was also discussed.
