Spectrophotometry Determination of Cobalt after Extraction of its Ternary Complex with 3-(4-Phenyl-2-Pyridyl)-5,6-Diphenyl-1,2,4-Triazine and Tetraphenylborate into Molten Naphthalene

The reaction of 3-(4-phenyl-2-pyridyl)-5,6-diphenyl-1,2,4-triazine (PPDT) and tetraphenylborate (TPB) with cobalt (II) has been studied to determine the optimum conditions for the extraction and quantitative spectrophotometry determination of this metal. The ternary complex is extracted into molten naphthalene at pH 3.6–7.4. The solid naphthalene containing the cobalt associated complex is separated by filtration and dissolved in acetonitrile. Beer's law is obeyed in the concentration range 8–140 μg cobalt in 10 ml of acetonitrile solution. The molar absorptivity and sensitivity are 4.2×10³ l·mol^?1·cm^?1 and 0.01408 μg/cm², respectively. The other factors such as pH, amounts of reagents and naphthalene, shaking and standing times, and the effect of diverse ions are studied. The method has been applied to the determination of cobalt in iron steel alloys.     

烷基苄基铵对芘的荧光猝灭行为研究

广义的荧光猝灭系指所有能使荧光强度降低的物理和化学过程,但通常涉及的主要有动态猝灭和静态猝灭,二者均遵从Stern-Volmer方程,但由于猝灭作用本质不同,它们在荧光寿命变化、温度效应及吸收光谱等方面表现出差异可资区别.本文通过稳态荧光强度变化和荧光衰减速率的比较研究了具有不同烷基链长的十四烷基苄基二甲基氯化铵(Zeph)和苄基三甲基溴化铵(TMBA)对芘的荧光猝灭,并基于电导实验结果以及猝灭剂全反式构象从理论上计算了Zeph和TMBA的猝灭速率常数,讨论了荧光猝灭的性质和长链分子的构型。     

Analytical applications of a differential technique in laser-induced fluorimetry: accurate and precise determination of uranium in concentrates and for designing microchemielectronic devices for on-line determination in processing industries

A novel instrumental technique for the direct, fast, accurate, and precise determination of uranium in concentrates and other U-rich materials (as well as to mineralized rocks) is presented. The proposed technique is an absolute methodology, based on the comparison of the fluorescence of the accurately known standard with a sample of similar but unknown concentration in the low operational range of the instrument (on same sample-dilution basis), by the use of H₃PO₄-NH₄H₂PO₄ as a fluorescence-enhancing reagent. The relative standard deviation of the proposed technique was 0.5-0.9% (n=9) at 18.1, 36.2, 61.2, and 99.6% U₃O₈. The proposed technique is suitable for the determination of uranium in samples arising from exploration projects, ores from mining operations, mill process samples, uranium ore concentrates leading to fuel fabrication as well as samples from environmental monitoring containing up to 100% uranium. The results are in good agreement with those obtained by titrimetric, gravimetric, and TBP extraction-H₂O₂ spectrophotometric methods. The precision of the technique is within the acceptable ‘pure geochemistry’ type of analysis (R.S.D. ∼ 1.0%) and is comparable even those obtained with titrimetric and gravimetric assay. The proposed differential technique coupled with flow injection may open up new advancement in instrumentation leading to design and development of microchemielectronic devices for direct on-line determination, more compatible with the tools of computer age as also to help in handling of radioactive solutions in chemical laboratories in uranium processing industries.     

Fluorescence ratiometric pH sensor prepared from covalently immobilized porphyrin and benzothioxanthene

A fluorescence ratiometric sensor for pH determination is described in this paper. The sensor incorporated the pH-sensitive dye meso-5,10,15,20-tetra-(4-allyloxyphenyl)porphyrin (TAPP) as an indicator and a pH-insensitive dye N-(2-methacryloxyethyl)benzo[k,l]thioxanthene-3,4-dicarboximide (MBTD), a benzothioxanthene derivative, as a reference for fluorescence ratiometric measurement. To prevent leakage of the dyes, both were photocopolymerized with acrylamide, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, and triethylene glycol dimethacrylate on the silanized glass surface. The reproducibility and response time of the prepared sensor were sufficient. Most common coexisting inorganic ions and organic compounds did not interfere with pH sensing. In the acidic pH range from 1.5 to 5.0 the fluorescence intensity ratio of the two dyes varied linearly as a function of pH. The sensing membrane was found to have a lifetime of at least one month. The sensor was applied to the analysis of waste water and artificial samples.

Fibre optic fluorometric enzyme sensors for hydrogen peroxide and lactate,based on horseradish peroxidase and lactate oxidase

An optical biosensor for the determination of hydrogen peroxide based on immobilized horseradish peroxidase is described. The fluorescence of the dimeric product of the enzyme catalysed oxidation of homovanillic acid is utilized to determine the concentration of H₂O₂. The membrane-bound enzyme is attached to a bifurcated fibre bundle permitting excitation and detection of the fluorescence by a fluorometer. The response of the sensor is linear from 1 to 130 M hydrogen peroxide; the coefficient of variation is 3%. The sensor is stable for more than 10 weeks. The operating pH for maximal sensor response is 8.15. This allows the sensor to be used in combination with oxidase reactions producing hydrogen peroxide, as is demonstrated with a co-immobilized lactate oxidase-horseradish peroxidase optode for the determination of L-lactate. The fluorescence intensity of this sensor depends linearly on the concentration of lactate between 3 and 200 M and a throughput of 10 samples per hour is possible. The precision is in the same range as that of the monoenzyme optode. The lifetime of the bienzyme sensor for lactate is considerably shorter than that of the peroxidase sensor; it is limited by the stability of the immobilized lactate oxidase enzyme. The sensor has been applied to the determination of lactate in control serum.     

Identification and determination of aminopeptidase activities secreted by lemon balm

Using synthetic substrates, an uncomplicated and sensitive procedure for the identification and determination of extracellular aminopeptidase was developed. The β-naphthylamides of the amino acids were applied for the identification of extracellular aminopeptidase, whereas the 4-(phenylazo) phenylamides of the amino acids were used for the determination of intra-and extracellular aminopeptidase activity. The results show a 81.8–88.9% intracellular and 11.1–18.2% extracellular distribution of the studied enzyme activity.

PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF SHISH-KEBAB TYPE LIQUID CRYSTALLINE POLY（p-PHENYLENEVINYLENE）

Novel shish-kebab type liquid crystalline poly（p-phenylenevinylene） derivatives were synthesized by Stille coupling reaction from 2,5-bis[（4-n-alkoxyl）benzoyloxy]1,4-dibromobenzene （monomer l） and 1,2-bis（tributylstannyl） ethylene （monomer 2）. The polymers with alkoxy groups are soluble in common organic solvents and exhibit blue fluorescence. Both the cast film and the annealed film have large red-shifts in fluorescence spectra and show yellow fluorescence. The polymers with CN and NO2 groups show poor solubility and green fluorescence. All the polymers possess liquid crystalline smectic phases. The melting point （Tm） of the polymers decreases when the length of the alkoxy tails of the mesogenic units increases. The polymers are easily aligned under a magnetic field of 10 Tesla. It is found that the conjugated backbone and LC side chain are aligned perpendicular and parallel to the magnetic field, respectively. The polymers show optical dichroism in fluorescence spectra, suggesting that they are available for advance materials with linear optical polarization.
