用自行设计的自动分析系统测定高含量SO3--对硫酸钡浊度测定法的改进

为了解决湿法磷酸生产中高含量SO3的测定,对硫酸钡浊度测定法的反应条件进行了改进,并自行设计制造了自动化的分析系统。测定时样品由蠕动泵(P)推入酸化盘管(AC)中进行酸化和稀释,由定量环(Sv)取样25μL,注入反应系统。在第一反应盘管(RC1)中,SO3与第一混合试剂中的BaCl2溶液反应生成BaSO4悬浊液,该溶液中的聚乙二醇-4000(PEG-4000)和乙醇通过协同作用避免了BaSO4颗粒的团聚,降低粒子间的相互作用,使BaSO4的生成减少,降低了测定的灵敏度,提高了稳定性。在第二反应盘管(RC2)中,BaSO4与第二混合试剂中的NH3·H2O/乙二胺四乙酸二钠(Na2EDTA)溶液发生络合反应同时被Na2EDTA包裹,进一步降低其灵敏度。最后反应溶液进入流通式光度检测器,在680.0nm波长处测试BaSO4悬浊液的吸光度。经优化试验条件,上述第一混合试剂中3种组分的质量分数或体积分数为:BaCl24%,PEG-4000 3%和乙醇2%;第二混合试剂中Na2EDTA的质量分数为6%,NH3·H2O的体积分数为6%。对实际按本方法及重量法分析进行测定,两种方法所得结果的相对偏差在±2%以内,且不受共存的高含量PO43-和F-的干扰。     

Chromatographic Purification of Tritiated Steroids Prior to Use in Radioimmunoassay

Abstract

The purity of tritiated steroids used as reagents in radio immunoassay plays an important role in the reliability of the assay. These radioactive reagents should be assessed for purity upon receipt and the purity should be checked periodically afterward. For such purposes, we have used chromatographic purification on Celite microcolumns. By charging the polarity of the stationary and mobile phases, 20 different tritiated steroids with a wide range of polarity could be purified on these microcolumns. This approach is easy, rapid, economical, and reliable.     

Determination of metals in thoracic fraction of ambient air particulate matter

The present work deals with the optimization and validation of a method for the quantitative simultaneous ICP determination of metals in ambient air particulate matter. The attention has been focused on the thoracic fraction (PM10) and twelve different metals were chosen on the basis of their toxicity and of their possible use as chemical tracers. The microwave acidic digestion of the samples has been performed in the presence of different reagents and under different conditions and particular attention has been paid to the optimization of the whole analytical procedure and to the evaluation of accuracy and precision related to the single operative steps. The interferences due to the reagents and to the sampling supports have also been evaluated. In addition, the analytical procedure has been checked by examining the equivalence of results related to parallel sampled filters pairs.     

Synthesis of palladium–polypyrrole nanocomposite and its electrocatalytic properties in the oxidation of formaldehyde

Three alternative methods were developed for the synthesis of modifying palladium–polypyrrole layers on the surface of an inert electrode. Their electrocatalytic activity toward formaldehyde under inert atmosphere was checked. All the suggested methods are one-stage and allow synthesis of a film on the electrode surface from a solution containing a palladium salt and pyrrole in the absence of other active reagents. The electrochemical methods (potentiodynamic and double cathodic and anodic pulses techniques) in an aqueous medium give films with poorly reproducible electrocatalytic properties, while the chemical redox synthesis affords films with reproducibly high electroactivity toward methylene glycolate.     

Utilization of cellulose nitrate waste

A two-step procedure for utilization of cellulose nitrate waste accumulated at industrial enterprises of the Russian Federation was suggested and experimentally checked. The procedure involves hydrolysis of cellulose nitrate in alkaline medium and incineration of hydrolysis products. The best reagents for complete hydrolysis of cellulose nitrate are aqueous solutions of sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate. As demonstrated by thermal analysis and thermodynamic calculations, incineration of cellulose nitrate base hydrolysis products can be performed without using hydrocarbon fuel.     

1H and 13C NMR studies of binuclear lanthanide(III):—silver(I) shift or relaxation reagents: Competition between several bonding sites in olefinic,aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds

The relative abilities of weak Lewis bases to complex binuclear lanthanide(III)—silver(I) reagents were checked by inter- or intra- molecular competitions. Preferential complexation at one particular site was shown to be determined mainly by the occurrence of well localized π electrons, by the relief of strain effects or by the lack of steric hindrance. In benzofuran and methoxybenzene derivatives oxygen never interacts directly with the silver reagent and plays a role mainly through electronic effects. Unlike oxygen, sulphur in benzo[b]thiophene is the preferred site of complexation with the silver reagent. On complexation with binuclear shift reagents (lanthanide = Eu, Pr, Yb) the ¹H NMR shifts were shown to result from several mechanisms. Better insight into the precise location of the reagent is obtained in ¹³C NMR by the use of the binuclear relaxation reagent Ag(tfa)-Gd(fod)₃.     

Study on the equilibria of the complex formation of molybdenum(VI) with 3,5-dinitrocatehol and 3-(2-naphthyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium chloride

The formation of an ion-associated complex between the anionic chelate of Mo(VI)–3,5-dinitrocatehol (3,5-DNC) and the cation of 3-(2-naphthyl)-2,5-diphenyl-2H-tetrazolium chloride (TV) in the liquid–liquid extraction system Mo(VI)–3,5-DNC–TV–H₂O–CHCl₃ was studied by spectrophotometry. The optimum conditions for the complex formation and extraction of the ion-associated complex were established. The effect of co-existing ions and reagents on the process of complex formation was investigated under optimum extraction conditions. The validity of Beer’s law was checked and some analytical characteristics were calculated. The association process in aqueous phase and the extraction equilibria were investigated and quantitatively characterized. The following key constants of the processes were calculated: association constant, distribution constant, extraction constant and recovery factor. The molar ratio of the reagents was determined by independent methods. Based on this, a reaction scheme, a general formula and a structure of the complex were suggested.     

Coulometric microdetermination of water

An electroanalytical method for the determination of small amounts of water by controlled potential coulometry has been devised. Excess of iodine is produced coulometrically in a Karl Fischer reagent, the sample is added, and after complete reaction the remainder of the iodine is reduced. The number of coulombs consumed in the cell reaction is determined by integration of the current by means of an electronic integrator. Karl Fischer reagents of various compositions were checked to find the most satisfactory conditions and a special electrolysis cell for water determination was constructed entirely in glass and Teflon. Samples containing 0.1-2 mg of water were added and determined with an accuracy of +/- 0.15 %. The analysis times were 3-12 min.     

Determination of 3-methyl-2,4-nonanedione in red wines using methanol chemical ionization ion trap mass spectrometry

A compound associated with oxidized flavor in red wines was recently-identified as 3-methyl-2,4-nonanedione (MND). In order to quantify it, positive chemical ionization (PCI) in an ion trap was studied using conventional liquid reagents such as methanol, acetonitrile, and acetone, as well as non-conventional liquid reagents such as ethyl acetate, diethyl ether, pentane, isohexane, and heptane. Under laboratory conditions, very different response factors were obtained with MND depending on the gas. We also compared the detection limit of conventional CI with hybrid chemical ionization (HCI). Finally, this compound was quantified in red wines by liquid/liquid extraction without any derivatization steps, followed by GC/MS-CI analysis, using methanol as the reagent gas. Coelutions of compounds with the same m/z were checked using methanol-d(4). The method we developed was linear in the 10-300 ng/L range of MND concentrations, with satisfactory repeatability. The detection limit was 4.3 ng/L, over 3 times lower than the olfactory perception threshold of this compound (16 ng/L). The suitability of this method for assaying this diketone in red wine was demonstrated by the analyzing many wines from different vintages.     

Semi-automatic determination of tin in marine materials by continuous flow hydride generation inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry

 A semi-automated continuous flow hydride generation system with inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) was used for the determination of tin in marine materials. The effects of acids (H₂SO₄ and HCl) were studied. The analytical parameters were thoroughly investigated. Under optimized conditions, the detection limit is 0.4 ng/ml. Interferences from transition elements were investigated and seven masking reagents were tested. L-cysteine hydrochloride monohydrate (1%) was used to mask the interferences from foreign ions. Finally, the accuracy, checked with a marine standard reference material obtained from the National Research Council (NRC), was within the certified value.

Ion-exchange studies of <Superscript>110m</Superscript>Ag(I) using synthetic inorganic ion-exchanger

In the present investigation, the selective adsorption of silver on synthetic inorganic ion exchanger, zinc(II) ferrocyanide, has been established by batch method, under specific conditions, using ^110mAg as a tracer. The efficiency of adsorption has been determined by γ-ray spectrometry and was found to be greater than 96%. The Ag(I) uptake by the exchanger has also been evaluated. The selectivity of the method was checked by studying the adsorption of Ag(I) in the presence of a number of foreign ions using their corresponding tracers. The interfering ions were removed by washing the ion-exchanger with appropriate reagents, so that it could be applied for the determination of trace amount of Ag(I) in complex matrices, containing trace amount of other metal ions.     

Development of native two-dimensional electrophoresis methods for the separation and detection of platinum carrying serum proteins: initial steps

The initial development steps of a native and powerful two-dimensional electrophoretic (2-D) method for the separation of platinum-proteins is described. Mild conditions were selected, particularly for the second dimension, e.g., avoiding buffer systems with platinophile N- or S-donor groups. Therefore, the separation reagents were checked if and at which concentration they can be used for this purpose. In the first dimension isoelectric focusing (IEF) was performed using immobilised pH gradients (IPGs). Native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) was done in the second dimension. Detection of proteins was achieved via silverstaining. For the determination of platinum in the ultra-trace range, double focusing inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HR-ICP-MS) was used. Autoradiography (¹⁹¹Pt tracer) will be done additionally in the future as a fast, powerful and elegant way of detecting the platinum carrying proteins after the second dimension.     

Conformationnal equilibrium of glucides on the level of liaisons sp 2 -sp 3 C-C. IV. Hybrid furans sp 2 in C(3)

The conformation of 34 branched-chain unsaturated sugars, prepared by reacting different Wittig reagents with a series of 1,2-O-isopropylidene-furannosul-3-oses, has been studied by PMR spectroscopy. The position of each compound in the flexible conformational cycle has been established by using the known stereo-dependence of the allylic coupling constants and checked with the other parameters of the spectra. An ‘isopropylidenic’ ⁴J_2,4 coupling constant, present in all compounds whose H—C(4) is endo and absent in their C(4)-epimers has proved useful for configurational assignment at C(4).     

Recognition of Hg(2+) using diametrically disubstituted cyclam unit

A newly synthesized 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane derivative (L), functionalized with a diazo moiety as the reporter functionality, is found to bind specifically to Hg(2+) with an associated change in color that could be visually detected. With biologically benign β-CD, it forms an inclusion complex (L·2β-CD), which shows a much higher solubility in water, and this helps in developing a more intense color on binding to Hg(2+) in a CH(3)CN-HEPES buffer medium. The nontoxic nature of L was checked with the living cells of a Gram negative bacterium, Pseudomonas putida . Further, experiments revealed that these two reagents could be used as staining agents for the detection of Hg(2+) present in this microorganism.     

A new synthesis of trifluoromethanethiolates—characterization and properties of tetramethylammonium, cesium and di(benzo-15-crown-5)cesium trifluoromethanethiolates

[NMe₄]SCF₃, CsSCF₃ and [(B-15-C-5)₂Cs]SCF₃ (B-15-C-5: benzo-15-crown-5) are formed from reactions of the corresponding fluorides, trimethyl(trifluoromethyl)silane, Me₃SiCF₃, and elemental sulfur in glyme or THF. All compounds are colorless to pale ochre solids decomposing significantly above ambient temperature. Excellent agreement between experimental and theoretical vibrational frequencies, calculated at the B3PW91 level of theory, impressively confirms the salt-like nature of [NMe₄]SCF₃.The properties of the title compounds as nucleophilic SCF₃ transfer reagents were checked with a variety of organic, organometallic and inorganic compounds.     

Studies on nucleic acid chemistry: VII. Synthesis of four oligoribonucleotides of dihydrouridine (D) loop of yeast alanine transfer RNA

This article described the preparation and the protection of 3′-DMP and dihydrouridine (Dr) as well as the synthesis of four oligoribonucleotides composed of them. DMP and Dr were obtained by hydrogenation of 3′-UMP and Ur under acidic conditions in the presence of platinum dioxide. They were monomethoxytritylated and benzoylated to (MeOTr)-D_bzp and (MeOTr) D_bzs, respectively. The latter was converted to D_bzs, by demonomethoxytritylation. The oligoribonucleotides containing DMP or Dr—ApGpD, DpApG, ApGpDpC and ApGpDpCpGpG were synthesized via phosphodiester approach and DCC was used as condensing reagent. DpApG was also synthesized via phosphotriester approach and TPST, MSTe, MSNI and MSNT were used as condensing reagents for a preliminary comparison of the coupling yields. These synthetic oligoribonucleotides were checked for purity and nucleotide sequences as usual. ApGpDpCpGpG and DpApG had been used for enzymatic synthesis of ApGpDpCpGpGpDpApG, which had been in turn successfully used for the total syntheses of the 5′-half molecule and the whole molecule of yeast alanine t-RNA     

Validation of the Charm MRL-3 for fast screening of beta-lactam antibiotics in raw milk

The biochemicals utilized in the Charm MRL beta-Lactam test (8 min test) were applied to faster flowing lateral components to create a new 3 min, one-step beta-lactam test called Charm MRL-3 (Charm Sciences Inc., Lawrence, MA). This new test was validated at T&V-ILVO according to Commission Decision 2002/657/EC. The following analytical parameters were checked: test specificity, detection capability, and test robustness (impact of deviation of the test protocol, and impact of the milk composition, batch differences of reagents). Further, the suitability of the Charm MRL-3 to screen heat-treated milk or milk from animal species other than the cow was also tested. Finally, the test was integrated in the monitoring of dairy samples to check the occurrence of false-negative or false-positive results, and the test was also included in a national ring trial and an international proficiency study. The results proved that the Charm MRL-3 is a fast, simple, and reliable cows' milk test that can be used at the farm level in order to prevent tanker milk contamination, or at the entrance of the dairy plant to screen tanker milk for the presence of beta-lactam antibiotics.
