Determination of carbendazim in tea using surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering(SERS) is applied to detect the concentration of carbendzim(CBZ) in tea leaves. Au colloid is selected and used for active surfaces, and the extraction conditions are optimized in the experiment. The linearity range for the SERS intensity and the concentration of CBZ is found to be0.5 to 8 mg kgà1. The detection limit for CBZ is 0.1 mg kgà1and its recovery in tea samples is 72.3%. The detection results for CBZ using this method are compared with those of HPLC, and no obvious difference can be found. In addition, by dripping the condensed Au colloid on the tea leaves, the proposed SERS approach could be used to the in-situ determination of the half life period of CBZ on tea leaves.     

Use of chiral derivatization for the determination of dichlorprop in tea samples by ultra performance LC with fluorescence detection

Dichlorprop is available for agricultural use as a chiral pesticide. In this study, the stereoselective determination of dichlorprop enantiomers in tea samples such as green, black, jasmine, and oolong was developed by ultra performance LC with fluorescence spectrometry after covalent chiral derivatization. The separation was achieved on an Acquity BEH C18 column with the mobile phase consisting of 0.1% formic acid in acetonitrile/water at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min. In the covalent chiral derivatization using (S)‐(+)‐4‐(N,N‐dimethylaminosulfonyl)‐7‐(3‐aminopyrrolidin‐1‐yl)‐2,1,3‐benzoxadiazole, the peak resolution between the S and R‐dichlorprop enantiomers was 2.6. LODs and LOQs values were 10 and 50 ng/mL standard solution. The linearity of the calibration curves yielded the coefficients (r² > 0.99, ranging from 0.05 to 5 μg/mL) of determination of each of the dichlorprop enantiomers. SPE extraction was used for the sample preparation of dichlorprop in various tea samples. Recoveries were in the range of 82.4–97.6% with associated precision values (within‐day: 82.4–95.8%, n = 6, and between‐day: 83.7–97.6% for 3 days) for repeatability and reproducibility. Based on this result, our method has been proven to be highly efficient and suitable for the routine assay of dichlorprop enantiomers in various tea samples. We propose that the ultra performance LC assay after covalent chiral derivatization would be the renewed tools in the era of chiral stationary platform for chiral pesticide residues in foods.

A novel spectrophotometric determination of copper(Ⅱ) with bromosulphonazo Ⅲ

A novel ehromogenic reaction involving copper(Ⅱ) and bromosulphonazo Ⅲ (Br-SAZⅢ) in hexamethylenetetramine-hydrochloric buffer solution was investigated. The results showed that a blue complex of copper(Ⅱ) and bromosulphonazo Ⅲwas formed with a molar ratio of 1:1. The apparent molar absorptivity was 3.3 × 105Lmol-1cm-1 and themaximum absorption peak was at 616.8 nm. The proposed procedure was used for quantitative estimation of Cu(Ⅱ) inthe concentration range of 0-1.024 μg/mL with the detection limit (3σ) of 7.03 × 10-4 μg/mL (n = 20). The relativestandard deviations (RSDs) were 0.56-4,68%. Under the optimized conditions, total copper in the vegetables and tea wassuccessfully determined.

Magnetically separable tea leaf mediated nickel oxide nanoparticles for excellent photocatalytic activity

Synthesis of nanoparticles having low chemical toxicity has been interest of researchers for decades. Utilization of plant phytochemicals as reducing agent is now a globally recognized alternative technique for environmental friendly and low-cost production of nanoparticles. This work reports a facile green synthesis protocol of Nickel Oxide nanoparticles (NiO NPs) using fresh tea leaf extract. The synthesized nanoparticles have been characterized through various analytical techniques like Powder XRD (P-XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The XRD results reveal the formation of crystalline nickel oxide nanoparticles. FTIR spectrum displays the existence of different polyphenolic groups over NiO NPs surface. TEM and SEM images indicate the formation of slightly agglomerated spherical nanoparticles with particle size 3–5 ​nm. The nanoparticles were used towards the photocatalytic degradation of both cationic, anionic dyes and their mixtures under optimum conditions in the presence of UV light irradiation. More than 95% degradation was observed for all the dye solutions with 30 ​mg ​L^-1 catalytic dose. Moreover, the degradation efficiency of the nanoparticle was studied by altering various parameters like pH, initial dye concentration and amount of catalytic dose. Pseudo first order kinetic model was employed in all the reactions. A detailed mechanism and kinetics of the all the reactions were studied. Interestingly, the catalyst showed excellent recyclability up-to 4th cycles with very low catalytic activity loss.     

Separation and purification of both tea seed polysaccharide and saponin from camellia cake extract using macroporous resin

A novel method to separate and purify tea seed polysaccharide and tea seed saponin from camellia cake extract by macroporous resin was developed. Among four kinds of resins (AB‐8, NKA‐9, XDA‐6, and D4020) tested, AB‐8 macroporous resin possessed optimal separating capacity for the two substances and thus was selected for the separation, in which deionized water was used to elute tea seed polysaccharide, 0.25% NaOH solution to remove the undesired pigments, and 90% ethanol to elute tea seed saponin. Further dynamic adsorption/desorption experiments on AB‐8 resin‐based column chromatography were conducted to obtain the optimal parameters. Under optimal dynamic adsorption and desorption conditions, 18.7 and 11.8% yield of tea seed polysaccharide and tea seed saponin were obtained with purities of 89.2 and 96.0%, respectively. The developed method provides a potential approach for the large‐scale production of tea seed polysaccharide and tea seed saponin from camellia cake.
