Study and application of parallel catalytic hydrogen wave of lincomycin in the presence of persulfate

The polarographic currents of lincomycin in the absence and the presence of persulfate are studied by linear potential scan polarography and cyclic voltammetry. The reduction wave of lincomycin in phosphate buffer is a catalytic hydrogen wave, which is the reduction of the proton combined with lincomycin in nature. When S₂O₈²⁻ is present, the atomic hydrogen as intermediate product from the reduction of the combined proton is oxidized by both S₂O₈²⁻ and its reduction intermediate, sulfate radical anion SO₄⁻, to regenerate the original proton, producing the parallel catalytic hydrogen wave. Based on the parallel catalytic hydrogen wave, a novel method for the determination of lincomycin is proposed. In 0.48 mol l⁻¹ KH₂PO₄-Na₂HPO₄ (pH 7.4)-8.0×10⁻³ mol l⁻¹ K₂S₂O₈ supporting electrolyte, the peak potential of the parallel catalytic hydrogen wave is −1.82 V (vs. SCE). The second-order derivative peak current is rectilinear to the lincomycin concentration in the range of 8.5×10⁻⁸-9.0×10⁻⁵ mol l⁻¹ and the detection limit is 4×10⁻⁸ mol l⁻¹. The parallel catalytic hydrogen wave is three orders in magnitude higher than that of the corresponding catalytic hydrogen wave in analytical sensitivity. The proposed method is applied to the rapid determination of lincomycin hydrochloride in eye drops without previous separation.

Polarographic Behavior of Gemfibrozil in the Presence of Dissolved Oxygen and Its Analytical Application

The polarographic behavior of gemfibrozil is investigated in 0.2 mol L^?1 KH₂PO₄‐Na₂HPO₄ (pH 5.8±0.1)‐8% ethanol supporting electrolyte in the absence and the presence of dissolved oxygen. The results demonstrate that the polarographic reduction peak at ca. ?1.17 V is a catalytic hydrogen wave after deaeration, and the enhanced reduction peak in the presence of dissolved oxygen is the so‐called parallel catalytic hydrogen wave. Based on the parallel catalytic hydrogen wave, a novel method has been developed for the determination of gemfibrozil by single sweep polarography. Calibration plot is linear in the range of 1.8×10^?7–2.4×10^?6 mol L^?1 and detection limit is 9.0×10^?8 mol L^?1. The proposed method is applied to the direct determination of the gemfibrozil in pharmaceutical preparations. The proposed method is simpler, faster and more sensitive than the known methods for gemfibrozil analyses.     

Effect of heat treatment on the physico-chemical properties and catalytic activity of manganese nodules leached residue towards decomposition of hydrogen peroxide

The effect of calcination temperature on the physico-chemical characterization of manganese nodule leached residue (MNLR) and water-washed manganese nodule leached residue (WMNLR) has been investigated on the basis of chemical analysis, XRD, TG-DTA, FTIR, surface hydroxyl groups, surface oxygen, reducing and oxidizing sites, surface area. XRD and IR confirm the presence of amorphous iron oxyhydroxides, delta-MnO2, which are converted to alpha-Fe2O3 and gamma-Mn2O3 phases above 400 degrees C of calcination, respectively. A solid solution of Fe2O3 and Mn2O3 is formed above 700 degrees C. The surface area, surface hydroxyl group, surface oxygen, reducing and oxidizing sites increase with the increase in calcination temperature up to 400 degrees C and then decrease with further rise in calcination temperature up to 700 degrees C. The catalytic activity of the sample towards H2O2 decomposition shows the similar trend as surface properties. A suitable Mn(3+)Mn4+ couple favours H2O2 decomposition reaction. The activity has been correlated with various physico-chemical properties.     

Spectrofluorimetric determination of hydrogen peroxide scavenging activity

Homovanillic acid (HVA) is widely used for the detection and imaging of oxidative enzymes—peroxidase, glucose oxidase and xanthine oxidase, but antioxidant activity has not been determined so far with the use of HVA. We have developed a simple, sensitive and in-field spectrofluorimetric method for the determination of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) scavenging activity. The assay is based on the oxidation of HVA to its fluorescent biphenyl dimer in the presence of H₂O₂ and peroxidase. The presence of substances with H₂O₂ scavenging activity prevents the oxidation of HVA by removing H₂O₂. The decrease in fluorescence intensity is proportional to the antioxidative (H₂O₂ scavenging) activity. The method was evaluated using Trolox (6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetramethylchromane-2-carboxylic acid), BHA (3-t-butyl-4-hydroxyanisole) and ferulic, vanillic, caffeic, chlorogenic, protocatechuic and oxalic acids. Additionally, tea and herb infusions known for their antioxidant properties were evaluated.

Thermal decomposition of hydrogen peroxide in the presence of sulfuric acid

Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) is popularly employed as a reaction reagent in cleaning processes for the chemical industry and semiconductor plants. By using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and vent sizing package 2 (VSP2), this study focused on the thermal decomposition reaction of H₂O₂ mixed with sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) with low (0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 N), and high concentrations of 96 mass%, respectively. Thermokinetic data, such as exothermic onset temperature (T ₀), heat of decomposition (ΔH _d), pressure rise rate (dP/dt), and self-heating rate (dT/dt), were obtained and assessed by the DSC and VSP2 experiments. From the thermal decomposition reaction on various concentrations of H₂SO₄, the experimental data of T ₀, ΔH, dP/dt, and dT/dt were obtained. Comparisons of the reactivity for H₂O₂ and H₂O₂ mixed with H₂SO₄ (lower and higher concentrations) were evaluated to corroborate the decomposition reaction in these systems.     

Bilayer lipid membrane biosensor with enhanced stability for amperometric determination of hydrogen peroxide

In this paper, a polydopamine (PDA) film is electropolymerized on the surface of bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) which is immobilized with horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The coverage of the PDA film on HRP/BLM electrode is monitored by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The electrocatalytic reduction of H₂O₂ at the PDA/HRP/BLM electrode is studied by means of cyclic voltammetry (CV). The biosensor has a fast response to H₂O₂ of less than 5 s and an excellent linear relationship is obtained in the concentration range from 2.5 × 10⁻⁷ to 3.1 × 10⁻³ mol L⁻¹, with a detection limit of 1.0 × 10⁻⁷ mol L⁻¹ (S/N = 3). The response current of BLM/HRP/PDA biosensor retains 84% of its original response after being stored in 0.1 mol L⁻¹ pH 7.0 PBS at 4 °C for 3 weeks. The selectivity, repeatability, and storage stability of PDA/HRP/BLM biosensor are greatly enhanced by the coverage of polydopamine film on BLM.     

Simultaneous determination of Pt and Rh by catalytic adsorptive stripping voltammetry, using hexamethylene tetramine (HMTA) as complexing agent

Characteristics of the adsorption/electro-reduction of Pt/Rh hexamethylene tetramine (HMTA) complex on static mercury drop electrode surface were studied. Cyclic voltammetry was carried out to get the insight about the mechanistic behaviour of the catalytic current obtained in the voltammetric scan of Pt/Rh HMTA complex in acidic solution. Adsorptive stripping voltammetry using HMTA as the complexing agent was found to be highly sensitive method for the determination of Pt/Rh. Voltammetric measurements were carried out using hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) as the working electrode, a glassy carbon rod as the counter and an Ag/AgCl/KCl_saturated as the reference electrode. Various electrochemical parameters like deposition potential, deposition time, concentration of the ligand, supporting electrolyte etc. were optimized. The detection limit of Pt and Rh was found to be 4.38 pML⁻¹ and 2.80 pML⁻¹, respectively for the deposition time of 30 s. Simultaneous determination of Pt(II) and Rh(III) in water samples was possible. The method was found to be free from the commonly occurring interfering ions such as Cu(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), Pb(II), Cr(III), Cr(VI), Fe(III), Fe(II), Ni(II) and Co(II). Spike recovery tests for both Pt and Rh in tap water and sea water samples were also carried out. The method has been verified by analyzing certified reference material (WMG-1).

Colorimetric detection of hydrogen peroxide and lactate based on the etching of the carbon based Au-Ag bimetallic nanocomposite synthesized by carbon dots as the reductant and stabilizer

In this report, carbon-based gold core silver shell Au-Ag bimetallic nanocomposite (Au-Ag/C NC) was synthesized using carbon dots (C-dots) as the reductant and stabilizer by a facile green sequential reduction approach. The structure and morphology of the nanocomposite are characterized by ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy (UV–Vis), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The as synthesized Au-Ag/C NC exhibits good optic response toward hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) without adding any other chromogenic agents. The characteristic surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorbance peak of Au-Ag/C NC declined and red-shifted with the solution color changing from reddish orange to light pink when adding H₂O₂ owing to the etching effect of H₂O₂ towards Ag. Thus, a simple colorimetric and UV strategy for sensitive detection of H₂O₂ is proposed. It provides the wide linear range for detection of H₂O₂ from 0.8–90 μM and 90–500 μM, and the detection limit was as low as 0.3 μM (S/N = 3). In addition, this colorimetric strategy can also be applied to directly distinguish and detect of lactate by naked eye and UV–Vis. The linear range of colorimetric sensing towards lactate was 0.1–22 μM and 22–220 μM, which was successfully applied in the analysis of lactate in human serum.

Intrinsic peroxidase-like catalytic activity of nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots and their application in the colorimetric detection of H2O2 and glucose

In this paper, the highly intrinsic peroxidase-like catalytic activity of nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots (N-GQDs) is revealed. This activity was greatly dependent on pH, temperature and H₂O₂ concentration. The experimental results showed that the stable N-GQDs could be used for the detection of H₂O₂ and glucose over a wide range of pH and temperature, offering a simple, highly selective and sensitive approach for their colorimetric sensing. The linearity between the analyte concentration and absorption ranged from 20 to 1170 μM for H₂O₂ and 25 to 375 μM for glucose with a detection limit of 5.3 μM for H₂O₂ and 16 μM for glucose. This assay was also successfully applied to the detection of glucose concentrations in diluted serum and fruit juice samples.

Role of hydrogen in catalytic dehydrogenation: Film diffusion controlled deactivation

The function of hydrogen used as carrier gas in catalytic dehydrogenation is to increase the selectivity and stability of catalysts. It slows down catalyst deactivation by either inhibiting deposition of potential coke precursors or facilitating their desorption by rehydrogenation. This function, in gas-solid catalytic dehydrogenation appears to be interphase mass transfer controlled by increased hydrogen linear flow velocities decreasing the extent of deactivation. Besides, deactivation appears to progress through two regimes, an initial short term followed by a long term deactivation.
