Simultaneous isolation and determination of esculin and rutin in natural materials using SPE and HPLC

Summary Esculin (ESC) and rutin (RUT) have been simultaneously isolated from pharmaceutical natural materials by solid phase extraction (SPE). Determination of both substances was performed by reversed phase high performance liquid chromatography (RPHPLC) with UV detection. Optimization of the separation conditions showed that simultaneous isolation and determination of rutin and esculin from pharmaceutical material was possible. The recovery obtained was not lower than 95±2%.     

Gas-stirred solvent extraction with propylene carbonate for separation and direct polarographic determination of thallium (III)

Gas-stirred propylene carbonate (PC) extraction can be performed by bubbling nitrogen without loss of volume. This extraction technique has proved to be highly useful for the separation and subsequent direct polarographic estimation of Tl(III) in the recovered PC phase. Tl(III) can be determined by differential-pulse polarography over the concentration range of 0.4 10 g ml^–1 without any interferences due to most metal ions such as Pb(II), Bi(III), Cu(II), Sb(III) and As(III). This proposed technique would be possible to use as a simple extraction step prior to the final estimation by instrumental method of analysis such as atomic absorption spectrometry or spectrophtometry.     

Fiber-in-Tube Solid Phase Extraction (FIT-SPE) for Miniaturized Sample Preparation Process

A typical analytical separation procedure has several important steps: sample preparation, isolation, identification, quantitation, statistical evaluation and final decision. Each step is alwayscritical to obtain correct results to fulfill the analytical purpose. In these various steps sample

SDE-GC-ECD分析水体中有机氯农药

运用单滴溶剂萃取-气相色谱-微池电子捕获检测器(SDE—GC—μECD)联用技术对水体中有机氯农药进行了分析，优化了影响单滴溶剂萃取的多种因素。该方法除了对P，P′-DDD的线性范围在0．4～4ng／mL之间外，其余的七种目标物(α-666，β-666，γ-666，δ-666，P，P′-DDE，0，P′-DDT，P，P′-DDT)线性范围均在0．04～4．0ng／mL之间，相关系数为0．9976～0．9999，回收率范围为83．3％～96．1％，相对标准偏差为2．1％～7．8％。与传统的液液萃取相比，单滴溶剂萃取不仅准确度、精密度相当，而且还具有省时、省溶剂的优点。     

Concentration and clean-up of trace hydrocarbons from atmospheric particulate matter

Summary The aim of this work is to establish the best conditions for concentration and purification steps in the trace analysis of aliphatic and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) from atmospheric particulate matter by gas chromatography-flame ionisation detection (GC-FID) and high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet and fluorescence detection (HPLC-UV-FL). The best results for the more volatile compound were obtained with a combination of rotary evaporation and a stream of nitrogen (near to 100% for aliphatic hydrocarbons and from 70 to 105% for PAH). Two types of solid phase extraction (SPE)cartridges (Supelclean ^tm LC-Silica SPE tubes and Sep-Pak^? Plus silica cartridges) and glass column were examined for the purification and fractionation step. Blank chromatograms of both types of cartridges analysed by GC-FID made this study difficult, because a PSS (programmed split-splitless) injector was employed thereby increasing the sensitivity. This problem was not observed in the HPLC-UV-FL blank chromatograms of these cartridges. Glass columns filled with silica and alumina were chosen because no interference was found in the GC-FID blank chromatograms and the best recoveries in the fractionation of both aliphatic hydrocarbons and PAH were achieved. This is especially important when aliphatic hydrocarbons concentrations are lower than 1 μg mL⁻¹. Finally, the selected conditions were applied to the analysis of hydrocarbons in real atmospheric particulate samples.

A method for the determination of histamine in wine by HPLC with precolumn derivatization with phenylisothiocyanate

Summary A method for determining histamine in wine by precolumn derivatization with PITC (phenylisothiocyanate) with reversed-phase HPLC and UV detection is reported. Histamine can be determined together with the 24 amino acids within 40 min, or separately in a shorter time (less than 4 min) if a prior solid phase extraction clean-up is used.     

Use of capillary gas chromatography/sensory analysis as an additional tool for sampling technique comparison in peach aroma analysis

Capillary GC/sensory analysis was used to judge if dynamic headspace on sliced pulp and on intact fruit, and solvent extraction could collect the “character impact” and the “contributory” aroma compounds in peaches. Capillary GC/sensory data showed that the headspace techniques selectively recovered the “contributory” volatile compounds, which are strictly related to the characteristic odor of the various peach cultivars, whereas solvent extraction better quantified the “character impact” compounds (lactones).
