Quantitative analysis of six pesticides in fruits by capillary electrophoresis-electrospray-mass spectrometry

A method to identify and quantify six pesticide residues - dinoseb, pirimicarb, procymidone, pyrifenox, pyrimethanil, and thiabendazole - in peaches and nectarines using capillary electrophoresis-electrospray ionization-quadrupole ion trap-tandem mass spectrometry (CE-ESI-MS/MS) is described. Separation was carried out using a buffer of 0.3 M ammonium acetate at pH 4 with 10% methanol. Pesticide residues present in peach and nectarine samples were preconcentrated by solid-phase extraction using C(18), eluted with CH(2)Cl(2), concentrated to dryness, and redissolved in buffer to obtain lower detection limits. The recoveries of the analytes ranged from 58 to 99% and the relative standard deviations were 9 to 19%. Under optimized CE-MS/MS conditions the minimum detectable levels for the six pesticides in spiked peach samples were between 0.01 mg/kg for pirimicarb and 0.05 mg/kg for procymidone with pressure injection of 50 mbar for 5 s (5 nL) at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3, which constitutes a severalfold increase in sensitivity compared to CE-MS, using a single quadrupole, and to conventional CE-UV. The potential of the method was demonstrated by analyzing different samples taken from regional agricultural cooperatives. The pesticides most often detected were thiabendazole and procymidone.     

An effective enantioselective approach to the securinega alkaloids: total synthesis of (-)-norsecurinine

[reaction: see text] A highly versatile approach to the enantioselective synthesis of securinega alkaloids is presented. Crucial steps are a palladium-catalyzed enantioselective imide alkylation, a vinylogous Mannich reaction, and a ring-closing metathesis process. Through this strategy, the synthesis of (-)-norsecurinine has been accomplished in nine steps and 11% overall yield.     

Direct determination of copper and zinc in cow milk, human milk and infant formula samples using electrothermal atomization atomic absorption spectrometry

Infant formula and powdered milk samples were suspended in a medium containing 20% ethanol, 0.65% nitric acid, 6% hydrogen peroxide and 0.1% ammonium dihydrogenphosphate and directly introduced in the electrothermal atomizer. Liquid milk samples were diluted with this suspension solution. The build-up of carbonaceous residues inside the atomizer was avoided by using a combination of hydrogen peroxide and nitric acid. Fast programs were used to simplify the heating cycles. Calibration was carried out using aqueous standards and the detection limits for copper and zinc were found to be 70 and 15 pg, respectively. The metal contents of several milk samples obtained by direct introduction of the samples agree with those obtained by means of a conventional procedure based on the total dissolution of the samples. The reliability of the methods was also confirmed by analyzing three certified reference materials. The free and protein binding fractions were measured by ultrafiltration membrane permeability of the milk samples.     

Determination of Benzo[a]pyrene in smoking-flavour agents (water-soluble liquid smoke) by second derivative constant-wavelength synchronous spectrofluorimetry

We have developed a simple, rapid, inexpensive method for the determination of benzo[a]pyrene (BP, a known carcinogen) in smoking-flavour agents (water-soluble liquid smoke; WSLS). After purification of the WSLS by a single passage through a Sep Pak C18 Plus cartridge, BP in the hexane eluate was determined by second derivative constant-wavelength synchronous spectrofluorimetry. Method precision (RSD < 6%) and recovery ( approximately 92%) were satisfactory, and the detection and quantification limits (1.05 and 2.28 mug kg(-1) respectively) indicated that the current maximum permissible concentration of BP in smoke flavourings (10 mug kg(-1)) can be monitored by this method.     

Coupled-column liquid chromatography method with photochemically induced derivatization for the direct determination of benzoylureas in vegetables

The coupled-column (LC-LC) system, consisting of a first column packed with internal surface reversed phase (ISRP) (50 x 4.6mm ID) and a Chrompack C18 (100 x 4.6 mm ID) as second column, allowed the simultaneous determination of five benzoylurea insecticides in dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) extracts of vegetable samples without any clean-up step. This system was combined with a photochemically induced fluorescence (PIF) post-column derivatization in order to provide strongly fluorescent photoproducts from the non-fluorescent benzoylureas. Limits of detection ranged from 0.21 to 0.98 microg L(-1) of pesticide (equivalent to 0.14-0.65 microg kg(-1) in vegetable samples) and limits of determination ranged from 4.0 to 10.0 microg L(-1) (equivalent to 2.7-6.7 microg kg(-1)). Linearity of the method was established between 2 and 1800 microg L(-1), depending upon the compound. Validation of the total method was performed by randomly analyzing recoveries of four vegetable samples (aubergine, cucumber, green bean, and tomato) spiked at two levels of concentration (10.0 and 33.3 microg kg(-1)). The combination of the LC-LC system with PIF detection provides a sensitive, selective, and rapid method for the determination of pesticides in vegetable samples at levels lower than the maximum residue levels (MRLs) established for these compounds by Spanish legislation.     

High-performance liquid chromatographic determination of tocopherols in infant formulas

A method for the simultaneous determination of alpha-tocopherol acetate and alpha-, delta-, and gamma-tocopherols by normal-phase high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a fluorescent detector in infant formula is proposed. The values obtained in the determination of the analytical parameters: linearity, precision, limit of detection and accuracy (analysis of a standard reference material, SRM 1846), confirm the quality of the method. The proposed method is useful for the determination of alpha-, delta-, and gamma-tocopherols and alpha-tocopherol acetate in infant formulas at a low cost and in a total time of 2 h.     

Use of highly efficient Draper-Lin small composite designs in the formal optimisation of both operational and chemical crucial variables affecting a FIA-chemiluminescence detection system

A new formal strategy in the multidimensional optimisation of the experimental variables affecting the chemiluminescence (CL) detection in flow injection analysis (FIA) is proposed here. The strategy implies several steps, being the most significant: selection of the variables to be studied and their experimental domain; use of a screening design to detect significant variables and interactions into the experimental region; study of the main effect of variables and second-order interactions; and finally application of a Draper-Lin small composite design (orthogonal) to obtain the optimum values of the significant variables. The methodology is applied to the determination of methylamine by FIA based on the use of the peroxyoxalate CL (PO-CL) reaction. Considering the high number of experiments required due to the different chemical and instrumental variables to be taken account and their adequate compatibility to obtain maximum sensitivity, the methodology offers a rigorous study of the main effects and interactions, achieving a reduction of experimental work.     

Binuclear Cu2+ complex mediated discrimination between L-glutamate and L-aspartate in water

L-glutamate and L-aspartate selectivity is achieved by the action of two Cu2+ metal ions rightly disposed in a cyclophane-type macrocyclic framework; electrochemical sensing of glutamate has been achieved by adsorption of the copper complexes on graphite electrodes.     

Development and validation of a capillary electrophoresis method for the determination of phenothiazines in human urine in the low nanogram per milliliter concentration range using field-amplified sample injection

A capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE) method with ultraviolet-visible detection has been established and validated for the determination of five phenothiazines: thiazinamium methylsulfate, promazine hydrochloride, chlorpromazine hydrochloride, thioridazine hydrochloride, and promethazine hydrochloride in human urine. Optimum separation was obtained on a 64.5 cm x 75 microm bubble cell capillary using a buffer containing 150 mM tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane and 25% acetonitrile at pH 8.2, with temperature and voltage of 25 degrees C and 20 kV, respectively. Naphazoline hydrochloride was used as an internal standard. Field-amplified sample injection (FASI) has been applied to improve the sensitivity of the detection. Considering the influence of parameters affecting the on-line preconcentration (nature of preinjection plug, sample solvent composition, injection times, and injection voltage) and due to the significant interactions among them, in this paper we propose for the first time the application of a multivariate approach to carry out the study. The optimized conditions were as follows: preinjection plug of water for 7 s at 50 mbar, electrokinetic injection for 40 s at 6.2 kV, and 32 microm of H3PO4 in the sample solvent. Also, a solid-phase extraction (SPE) procedure is developed to obtain low detection limits and an adequate selectivity for urine samples. The combination of SPE and FASI-CZE-UV allows adequate linearities and recoveries, low detection limits (from 2 to 5 ng/mL), and satisfactory precisions (3.0-7.2% for an intermediate RSD %).
