A Photochemistry Technique Using Ultraviolet Irradiation Followed by Gas-Liquid Chromatography to Confirm the Identity of Some Organochlorine Pesticides

Abstract

A procedure involving ultraviolet (UV) irradiation followed by gas-liquid chromatographic (GLC) detection of photodecomposition products to confirm the identity of selected organochlorine pesticides is described. The Irradiation intensity was standardized by determining the position relative to the UV source which resulted in equal GLC peak heights for the parent compound and major photo-decomposition product after 8 minutes of exposure of a solution of heptachlor epoxide in isooctane. Chromatograms showing photo-decomposition patterns for 33 compounds are presented. Observations and comments on the applicability of this technique to organo-chlorine pesticide residue confirmation are reported.     

Activity coefficients and excess Gibbs’ energies of the binary mixtures formed by 2-cyanopyrazine with some chloroaliphatics at 95.5 kPa

Bubble points at a pressure of 95.5?kPa, over the entire composition range are measured for the binary mixtures formed by 2-cyanopyrazine with: 1,2-dichloroethane, 1,1,2,2-tetrachloroethane, trichloroethylene and tetrachloroethylene making use of a Swietoslawski type ebulliometer. The liquid phase composition versus temperature measurements are found to be well represented by the Wilson model. Computed values of the activity coefficients and excess Gibbs’ energies are also presented along with the phase equilibrium data.     

Slater Sum in Cylindrically Symmetric Inhomogeneous Electron Liquids: Towards A Differential Equation for the Stark Effect in Hydrogen Atom

Abstract

Attention is focussed here on a variety of cylindrically symmetric inhomogeneous electron liquids. These include separable potentials in which a general variation along the (z) axis of cylindrical symmetry is combined with isotropic harmonic confinement in the (x, y) plane. in this case, an explicit differential equation is derived for the Slater sum along the z axis by projecting out of the (off-diagonal) canonical density matrix the states with zero angular momentum about the axis of symmetry. Some attention is then given to the calculation of the Slater sum for a hydrogen-like atom in a uniform electric field of arbitrary strength. the model of a separable potential with harmonic confinement, though no longer exact, is shown to lead directly to a (now approximate) equation for the Slater sum along the z axis for the Stark effect in hydrogen. Finally some further progress is shown to be possible in the extreme high field limit.

Determination of Iron in Calf Serum Using Bathophenanthroline and Thermal Lens Spectrometry

ABSTRACT

Thermal lens spectrometry has been used for the determination of iron in calf serum. The method is based on dissociation of Fe³⁺ from proteins, reduction of Fe³⁺ to Fe²⁺ and formation of a coloured complex between Fe²⁺ and bathophenanthroline. Contrary to the spectrophotometric method, it is shown that thermal lens spectrometry is less sensitive to scattering caused by the presence of small particles remaining in the test solution after the deproteinization step. The background signal is very small and the response is only slightly dependent on the amount of scattering particles. The method is reliable, sensitive and reproducible. The limit of detection for iron is 4 ppb and the relative standard deviation is around 2%. It is expected that the volume of serum sample necessary for an analysis can be reduced to less than 100 μl.     

Electron Capture Determination of Propoxyphene from Human Plasma

Abstract

A procedure for the determination of propoxyphene (α-d-dimethylamino-1, 2 -diphenyl-3 -methyl-2 -propionoxybutane) in plasma is reported. The method is based on the electron capture characteristics of propoxyphene. The plasma is rendered basic to generate the free amine and extracted with ether. The extract is analyzed by gas chromatography using a 4 foot OV-225 column. An internal standard of imipramine hydrochloride is used to quantitate the propoxyphene. This internal standard is carried through the entire procedure. The ratio of the peak heights of propoxyphene to imipramine is compared to ratios obtained from standards placed in plasma and treated in the same manner as the samples. Six subjects were given propoxyphene at different time intervals, and the data are presented concerning these subjects.     

Determination of Lead in Human Hair by High Resolution Continuum Source Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption Spectrometry with Microwave Digestion and Solid Sampling

The content of lead in human hair was measured by high resolution continuum source graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (HR-CS GFAAS) combined with microwave-assisted digestion (MAD) and direct solid sampling (DSS). Hair strands were washed, dried, and then cut into three parts (root, middle portion, and tip). For MAD-GFAAS assays, approximately 0.25 g of hair was completely digested using a mixture of concentrated nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide in a closed system. In the DSS-GFAAS assays, 0.1–0.2 mg of dried hair was directly introduced into a graphite furnace using a solid autosampler. The temperature programs were optimized and the effects of various added modifiers were compared. The results indicated that NH₄H₂PO₄ was the optimal modifier for analysis of Pb using GFAAS. Use of the optimal modifier and temperature program gave similar limits of detection for MAD-GFAAS and DSS-GFAAS of 1.16 ng/g and 0.82 ng/g, respectively. Both methods also produced satisfactory recoveries ranging from 98.69% to 103.14%. There was no significant difference observed between the Pb contents of hair strands determined by the MAD-GFAAS and DSS-GFAAS assays, which both indicated that the Pb levels increased along the hair strands. Comparison of the two methods revealed that DSS-GFAAS had several advantageous characteristics over MAD-GFAAS, including the need for much less sample material and having a less time-consuming procedure, lower sample blank absorbance, lower memory effect, and no risk of environmental pollution by digesting chemicals. The direct solid sampling technique can be employed as a good alternative to conventional wet digestion in AAS assays.     

Solvatochromic Solvent Polarity Measurements In Analytical Chemistry: Synthesiss And Applications Of Et-30

Abstract

The E_T(30) scale of solvent polarity has been shown to be useful in examining many diverse analytical processes. It is based on the charge transfer absorption of 2,6-diphenyl-4-(2,4,6-triphenyl-N-pyridinio)phenolate (referred to as ET-30 in this paper). Unfortunately, use of the E_T(30) scale has been hindered by (a) the lack of a commercial source of the ET-30 dye and (b) the lack of an English language synthetic procedure. Here we discuss recent applications of the E_T(30) scale to analytical techniques, as well as a simplified procedure for the synthesis of ET-30.
