An Overview of Green Analytical Techniques in the Spectrometric Analysis of Environmental and Biological Samples

2009

ABSTRACT This literature survey presents in a nutshell different parameters for the effectiveness of the green spectrometric procedures, which have been applied to the determination of organics, inorganics, and metal ions in different matrices. The following issues were considered: the main aspects of miniaturization, reagent replacement, reduction of wastes, and on-line recovery and detoxification, which made the analytical procedures sustainable. Also, a discussion of analytical characteristics along with spectrometric methodologies and applications is included.

Implementation of gradients of organic solvent in micellar liquid chromatography using DryLab®: Separation of basic compounds in urine samples

2014

In micellar liquid chromatography (MLC), chromatographic peaks are more evenly distributed compared to conventional reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC). This is the reason that most procedures are implemented using isocratic elution. However, gradient elution may be still useful in MLC to analyse mixtures of compounds within a wide range of polarities, decreasing the analysis time. Also, it benefits the determination of moderately to low polar compounds in physiological fluids performing direct injection: an initial micellar eluent with a low organic solvent content, or a pure micellar (without surfactant) solution, will provide better protection of the column against the proteins i…

Analytical Techniques for Furosemide Determination

2006

Abstract Due to the clinical importance of furosemide, a large number of analytical procedures to detect the presence of this drug in pharmaceutical and physiological samples has been developed. In this manuscript, a review of the most frequent analytical techniques described to determine furosemide is presented. Special attention has been paid to spectrophotometric and chromatographic techniques, but also to relevant methods using capillary electrophoresis or flow‐injection analysis, as well as the detection modes coupled to these techniques. The review also focuses on the different degradation pathways of the drug and cautions to prevent it, otherwise rarely or confusedly mentioned in the…

Procedures of Separation and Pre‐concentration for Molybdenum Determination Using Atomic Spectrometry—a Review

2004

Abstract The literature concerning the improvement of atomic and ionic procedures for molybdenum determination through separation and pre‐concentration were updated. Analytical procedures based on flame atomic absorption spectrometry (AAAS), electrothermal or graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GFAAS), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP‐OES), and inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry were reviewed taking into consideration the preliminary steps, which can enhance the selectivity and sensitivity based on co‐precipitation, solvent extraction, and solid‐phase extraction. Both in‐batch and on‐line procedures were considered.

Photochemical derivatization and fluorimetric determination of reserpine in a flow-injection assembly

1991

Abstract The fluorimetric flow-injection determination of reserpine was achieved with the drug being derivatized on-line by photoreaction. PTFE tubing was helically coiled around a germicide lamp located between the injection valve and detector. Two analytical procedures are proposed using either dilute acetic acid or pure methanol as the carrier stream. The influence of foreign compounds was studied and the method was applied to the determination of reserpine in pharmaceutical formulations.

Recent trends in liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to determine pesticides and their metabolites in food

2007

Abstract The applications of liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) have exploded in innumerable analytical fields, including pesticide-residue determination. There is no doubt that LC-MS is currently competing with gas chromatography (GC)-MS for the status of ‘reference’ analytical technique to determine pesticide residues and that its ever-increasing application is bound to the evolution of modern instruments and their growing performance qualities. We highlight the large number and variety of pesticides that can be readily determined using such instruments, the respective merits of the different mass analyzers, and the improvements brought about by tandem MS (MS 2 ). We also dis…

Protocol to compare column performance applied to hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography

2019

Abstract The lack of retention of highly polar solutes in liquid chromatography with reversed phase columns (RPLC) can be solved through the use of the hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatographic (HILIC) mode. Due to the complexity of the separation mechanisms in HILIC and the different factors that may have significant influence, the selection of the appropriate stationary phase plays a fundamental role in the development of analytical procedures to obtain good performance. In this work, the chromatographic performance of bare silica and six polar stationary phases with different functionalized groups (with neutral, cationic, anionic and zwitterionic character) are investigated. The beh…

Noninvasive evaluation of the celiac trunk and superior mesenteric artery with multislice CT in patients with chronic mesenteric ischaemia.

2008

This study sought to assess the role of multislice computed tomography (MSCT) in patients with suspected chronic mesenteric ischaemia (CMI). Forty-five patients (29 men; mean age 68) underwent MSCT angiography of the abdomen for suspected CMI (main clinical finding: postprandial abdominal pain). The scan protocol was detectors/collimation 16/0.75 mm; feed 36 mm/s; rotation time 500 ms; increment 0.4 mm; 120-150 mAs and 120 kVp. A volume of 80 ml of contrast material was administered through an antecubital vein (rate 4 ml/s), followed by 40 ml of saline (rate 4 ml/s). Images were analysed on the workstation with different algorithms (axial image scrolling, multiplanar reconstructions, maximu…

Naturaleza de los plazos en los procedimientos de gestión e inspección tributaria en relación al procedimiento administrativo común

2018

El presente trabajo tiene como objeto principal analizar los distintos tipos de plazos de los que dispone la Administración Tributaria para el ejercicio de sus derechos, ya sean éstos para iniciar el procedimiento como durante su instrucción y terminación. Junto a ello, se pone de manifiesto la diferencia que existe entre los plazos para el procedimiento inspector y el procedimiento administrativo común. Finalmente, se expone el problema de los plazos en la ejecución de las resoluciones de los tribunales económicos-administrativos. The main purpose of this paper is to analyze the different types of terms available to the Tax Administration for the exercise of their rights, whether these are…
