Kinetic-spectrophotometric determination of trace amounts of As(III) based on its inhibitory effect on the redox reaction between bromate and hydrochloric acid

A simple, sensitive, rapid and reliable method has been developed for spectrophotometric determinations of As(III) in the presence of As(V) based on its inhibition effect on the redox reaction between bromate and hydrochloric acid. The decolorization of methyl orange by the reaction products was used to monitor the reaction spectrophotometrically at 525 nm. The method allows the determination of arsenic in the range of 6-1000 mug l(-1). The relative standard deviation for 10 determinations of 40 mug l(-1) of As(III) was 1.43% and the limit of detection, corresponding to a signal to noise ratio of three, was 3.4 mug l(-1). The proposed method was applied to the determination of As(III) in water samples with satisfactory results.     

Flow-injection determination of copper(II) based on its catalysis on the redox reaction of cysteine with iron(III) in the presence of 1,10-phenanthroline

A redox reaction of cysteine with iron(III) proceeds slowly in the presence of 1,10-phenanthroline (phen). However, this reaction is accelerated in the presence of copper(II) as a catalyst, producing an iron(II)-phen complex (lambda(max)=510 nm). A sensitive spectrophotometric flow-injection method is proposed for the determination of copper(II) based on its catalytic action on this redox reaction. The dynamic range was 0.1-10 ng ml(-1) of copper(II) with a relative standard deviation of 1.0% (n=10) for 1.0 ng ml(-1) of copper(II) at a sampling rate of 30 h(-1). The detection limit (S/N=3) is 0.04 ng ml(-1). The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of copper in river water as a certified reference material.     

Electrochemical Cyclization of Adrenaline,the Simplest Derivatization for its Selective Determination

Electrochemical techniques are the most reliable techniques for determination of neurotransmitters and selective determination is their most challenging issue. Herein we have optimized the condition for oxidation of adrenaline and noradrenaline, as the most similar neurotransmitters, to find a simple and fast technique for their selective determination. Under mild acidic condition, oxidation of adrenaline is followed by a cyclization reaction and oxidation of the product (ECE mechanism) whereas noradrenaline undergoes just oxidation (E mechanism). The redox potential of the product of ECE mechanism has 350 mV difference with the product of E mechanism. This different in reactivity and redox potential yields two baseline separated reduction peaks for the oxidation products of adrenaline and noradrenaline, which used for their selective determination.     

A Simple Electrochemical Method for the Quantitative Determination of Acetaminophen in Serum

Abstract

A simple electrochemical method for the determination of acetaminophen in serum is described. The eleotrode and associated electronics are simple, reliable, and inexpensive to build. The apparatus can be operated at a rate of 2–3 determinations per minute using only 10 μl serum per determination. The procedure includes extraction of acetaminophen in ethyl acetate and subsequent oxidative amperometric detection of the drug by a form of flow-injection analysis. The system parameters of buffer, pH, and redox potential have been optimized to permit measurement of less than 10 μg/ml of acetaminophen. The determination is linear over the range of 10–300 μg/ml with a C.V. of less than 3% for replicate analysis of the same sample.

Evaluation of different mediator-modified screen-printed electrodes used in a flow system as amperometric sensors for NADH

This work presents a comparative study between two different methods for the preparation of mediator-modified screen-printed electrodes, to be used as detectors in a reliable flow injection system for the determination of the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) coenzyme. The best strategy was selected for the final development of compact biosensors based on dehydrogenase enzymes. For the first immobilisation strategy, different redox mediators were electropolymerised onto the SPE surface. The second immobilisation strategy was carried out using polysulfone–graphite composites, which were deposited by screen-printing technology onto the screen-printed electrode (SPE) surface. Both methods achieved an effective and reliable incorporation of redox mediators to the SPE configuration. Finally, a flow system for ammonium determination was developed using a glutamate dehydrogenase (GlDH)-Meldola's Blue (MB)-polysulfone-composite film-based biosensor.

The stability of the redox mediators inside the composite films as well as the negligible fouling effect observed on the electrode surface improve the repeatability and reproducibility of the sensors, important features for continuous analysis in flow systems. Furthermore, the optimised bio/sensors, incorporated in a flow injection system, showed good sensitivities and short response times. Such a good analytical performance together with the simple and fast sensor construction are interesting characteristics to consider the polysulfone-composite films as attractive electrochemical transducer materials for the development of new dehydrogenase-based SPEs.

One‐electron redox properties of DNA nucleobases and common tautomers

The redox properties of DNA play an influential role in several important processes such as DNA mutation and the interaction of DNA with drugs. Structural changes in DNA nucleobases from its canonical form to its tautomeric forms can alter these properties and may lead to DNA mutation due to altered base‐pairing properties. Experimental results for the standard value of DNA redox properties vary due to choice of methodology and solvent. Theoretical determination of these properties is helpful in pinpointing standard values but still vary depending on methodology and chosen experimental benchmark. However, it is of importance to identify the overall trend of electron mobility within DNA while providing reliable standard values for redox reactions. In this work, we present the results of theoretical calculations for redox properties. Using the thermodynamic cycle, we can approximate reliable values. We report the electron affinities, ionization potentials, and redox potential for the canonical DNA nucleobases and their rare tautomers. For each of these properties, we evaluate its overall trend to gain a greater understanding of the role that electron attachment and electron mobility have within the DNA strand. All calculations are computed at the M06‐2X/6–31++G(d,p) level of theory. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.     

Flow injection spectrophotometric determination of ascorbic acid in soft drinks and beer

Two spectrophotometric methods, a photochemical and a non-photochemical, for the determination of ascorbic acid in soft drinks and beer using a flow-injection system are proposed. The non-photochemical method is based on the redox reaction that takes place between ascorbic acid and Fe(III), yielding dehydroascorbic acid and Fe(II). Fe(II) reacts with 1,10-phenantroline, originating the reddish orange Fe(phen)3(2+) complex (ferroin). This complex is spectrophotometrically monitored at 512 nm, and the signal is directly related to the concentration of ascorbic acid in the sample. The photochemical method has the same basis, nevertheless, uses the irradiation with visible light to enhance the redox reaction and so achieve higher sensitivities in the analysis. The non-photochemical method shows a linear range between 5 and 80 microg mL(-1), with a relative standard deviation of 1.6% (n = 11), a detection limit of 2.7 microg mL(-1) and a sample throughput of 60 samples h(-1). The photochemical method shows a linear range between 1 and 80 microg mL(-1), with a relative standard deviation of 1.0% (n = 11 ), a detection limit of 0.5 microg mL(-1) and a sample throughput of 40 samples h(-1).     

Improved high-performance liquid chromatographic method for the routine determination of unconjugated 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethyleneglycol in human plasma using solid-phase extraction and electrochemical detection

An improved semi-automated high-performance liquid chromatographic method is described for the routine determination of unconjugated 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethyleneglycol in plasma. The 3-ethoxy analogue of the compound is used as an internal standard. The method is based on purification of 0.5-ml plasma samples with phenyl-type reversed-phase extraction columns, reversed-phase separation with an acetate-citrate-methanol mobile phase with an octadecyl-bonded column, and dual-electrode coulometric detection with oxidation at +0.44 V and reduction at -0.25 V. The precision and accuracy of the assay are satisfactory: the lower limit of reliable detection corresponds to a plasma concentration of 1.5 nM. The validity of the determination is demonstrated by an 18% mean increase in plasma levels of 3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenylethyleneglycol during physical exercise (duration 16 min, n = 13) and a 50% mean reduction in plasma levels induced by a single dose of the monoamine oxidase inhibitor, moclobemide (n = 8). The method is suitable for routine use in pharmacological and physiological experiments.     

Electrochemical sensor for Baicalein using a carbon paste electrode doped with carbon nanotubes

We report on the voltammetric determination of the flavonoid Baicalein by using a carbon paste electrode that was doped with multi-walled carbon nanotubes. The resulting sensor exhibits excellent redox activity towards Baicalein due to the large surface area and good conductivity of the electrode. Cyclic voltammetry at various scan rates was used to investigate the redox properties of Baicalein. At the optimum conditions, the sensor displays a linear current response to Baicalein in the 0.02–10 μM concentration range, with a limit of detection of 4.2 n M. The method was successfully applied to the determination of Baicalein in spiked human blood serum samples and in a Chinese oral liquid.

Redox reactions on columns

In a study of redox reactions on columns, the work of Cerrai and Testa has been extended. It has been shown that insolubility of the redox compound is the most important factor and that adsorptive forces play little or no part. A useful redox column method for the determination of iron and vanadium, which compares favourably with that using a Jones reductor column, has been developed. The redox potentials of several substituted hydroquinones have been measured.     

Determination of Biotin in Pharmaceutical Formulations by Potassium Permanganate-luminol-CdTe Nanoparticles Chemiluminescence System

A sensitive flow-injection chemiluminescence method was developed for the determination of biotin in the pharmaceutical formulations. The affinity between avidin and biotin was used to adsorb biotin on the polystyrene, with subsequent quantification of biotin based on its ability to enhance the chemiluminescence(CL) signal generated by the redox reaction of potassium permanganate-luminol-CdTe nanoparticles CL system. The investigations prove that apart from 3-aminophthalate, the CdTe quantum dots(QDs) play both catalytic and emitter roles. Under optimum conditions, the linear range for the determination of biotin was 0.01-25ng/mL with a detection limit of 7.3?10^-3 ng/mL(S/N=3). The relative standard deviation of 5 ng/L biotin was 2.06%(n=7). The proposed method was used to determine the biotin concentration in the pharmaceutical formulations and the recovery was between 96.4% and 104%. The proposed method is simple, convenient, rapid and sensitive.     

Permethylated electron-reservoir sandwich complexes as references for the determination of redox potentials. Suggestion of a new redox scale

The difference between the redox potentials of decamethylferrocene (FeCp₂^*), decamethylcobalticinium (CoCp₂^*)⁺ and iron-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl-hexaethylbenzene cation (FeCp^*C₆Me₆)⁺ is shown not to depend on the solvent and anion of the supporting electrolyte whereas ferrocene, whose redox potential is solvent dependent, does not fit in this series. Suggestions are made concerning the possible use of the three permethylated complexes as reliable references for the determination of redox potentials, and a redox scale versus decamethylferrocene is proposed.

Novel Spectrophotometric Method for Determination of Macro-paracetamol via Reaction with Bromine

The reaction between Br2 and paracetamol(p-AAP) leads to the formation of a coloured product, which can be used for spectrophotometric determination of the p-AAP content in its pure form and in different pharmaceutical preparations with p-AAP. The stoichiometric composition of the reaction was found to be n(p-AAP)∶n(bromine)=1∶3. The effects of pH and time on the spectra of p-AAP-bromine redox reaction product were studied. The interference of different additives on the measured spectra of the obtained product was also studied. The results obtained by the present method were compared with those obtained by the standard method. The F- and t- test values were calculated for both of the applied procedures and they met a confidence level of 99%. The proposed procedure actually needs no separation of these drugs from their sources before analysis and was unaffected by interference of other phenolic compounds. The proposed method is simpler and faster than the repoeted ones.     

Oxidability Determination in Waste Waters Using an Automatic Titrator Based on a Multicommutated Unsegmented Flow System

Abstract

The automatic titrator based on a multicommutated unsegmented flow system was applied to redox titrations and used for oxidability determination in waters analysis. This automatic titrator allows the attainment of complete titration curves, being the determination of titrand concentration performed without requiring any prior calibration. After sample treatment (oxidation step), the oxidability determination in waste water samples was accomplished by the automatic flow titrator (titration step). Repeated determinations of standard solutions gave a 3.5% RSD (n=10, 0.010M) for repeatability and a 3.2% RSD (n=2, 0.057M) for reproducibility. Samples results (n=9) were in good agreement (t-test) with those obtained with a reference procedure.     

Electrocatalytic oxidation of uric acid at an electrodeposited redox polymer film-modified gold electrode

A hydrated osmium complex-containing redox polymer film-modified gold electrode based on electrochemical cross-linking was developed. The amount and the characteristics of redox polymer film cross-linked on the gold electrode were investigated by using electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM). The redox polymer film exhibited a strong electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of uric acid with a lowering of the overpotential by about 230 mV and a large increase in the magnitude of the oxidation peak current. Based on this procedure, an amperometric method for the determination of uric acid concentration was proposed.
