Preparation and characterization of dummy-template molecularly imprinted polymers as potential sorbents for the recognition of selected polybrominate…
2018
The main aim of this work was to conduct the preliminary/basic research concerning the preparation process of a new dummy molecularly imprinted polymer (DMIP) materials. Developed DMIPs were proposed as a sorption material in solid-phase extraction (SPE) technique for recognition of selected low mass polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) – PBDE-47 and PBDE-99. Four new DMIPs were synthesized employing bulky polymerization technique by application of structural analogue of low mass PBDEs - 4,4′-Dihydroxydiphenyl ether, as a dummy template. The DMIPs and corresponding non-imprinted polymers were prepared using different functional monomers: methacrylic acid; methyl methacrylate and different…
Infrared evolved gas analysis during thermal investigation of lanthanum, europium and samarium carbonates
2003
Abstract The characterisation of rare earth elements carbonates (REECs) was performed by thermal analysis (TG–DTG) combined with simultaneous infrared evolved gas analysis–Fourier transform infrared (EGA–FTIR) spectroscopy. The TG–DTG curves were obtained using the Perkin-Elmer PC series TGA-7 thermogravimetric analyser in the temperature range 25–800 °C both in dynamic air and nitrogen atmosphere. La 2 (CO 3 ) 3 · n H 2 O, Eu 2 (CO 3 ) 3 · n H 2 O and Sm 2 (CO 3 ) 3 · n H 2 O were analysed, the dehydration and decarbonation steps were investigated and the water content was calculated. The trace rare earth elements in lanthanum, europium and samarium carbonates were determined by Philips PU…
Macroscopic and Molecular Insights from CO Adsorption on NaY Zeolite: A Combined FTIR and Manometric Study
2012
International audience; This survey combines both quantitative and IR molecular descriptions and aims to provide new insights for the description of CO adsorption on NaY zeolite at 77 K. Quantitative measurements of the number of CO molecules trapped in the microporous super cage are compared to the corresponding IR spectra of CO as adsorbed species. We demonstrate that polycarbonyls formed during the completion of the accessible S-II Na+ coordinative vacancies result in the formation of mono-, di- and tricarbonyls but not consecutively. Quantitative analysis and measurements of the CO molecules that are adsorbed prove that polycarbonyls coexist with different proportions over the adsorptio…
Mid-infrared and Raman spectrometry for quality control of pesticide formulations
2005
This article deals with recent developments in the use of vibrational spectrometry for the quantitative analysis of active components in commercial pesticide formulations. We review the techniques, such as Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and FT-Raman spectrometries, and measurement modes, such as stopped flow or flow injection. FTIR is being used increasingly in the determination of pesticides in agrochemical products because of its relatively short analysis time. However, FT-Raman spectrometry provides direct analysis of solid and aqueous samples. It is therefore clear that these techniques enable fast, non-destructive, precise and accurate measurements, so vibrational spectrometry appea…
Fourier transform infrared spectrometric determination of Malathion in pesticide formulations
2004
Abstract An environmentally friendly methodology has been developed for quality control analysis of emulsifiable concentrate pesticide formulations containing Malathion as active ingredient, using flow injection analysis (FIA)–Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrometry. Five microlitres samples were directly injected into a 3 ml closed FIA manifold, in which 2 ml of CHCl 3 was re-circulated at 1.96 ml min −1 . After homogenisation and sample measurement, 2 μl volumes of a Malathion standard were injected, taking absorbance measurements after each injection. Peak height of the chemigrams, established from peak area values between 1027 and 1017 cm −1 , corrected with a baseline fixed from…

Morphology controlled nano-structures of an octa(phenoxy)-substituted phthalocyaninato zinc complex: solvent effect on the self-assembly behaviour
2014
The 2,3,9,10,16,17,24,25-octakis(phenoxy)phthalocyaninato zinc, (Zn[Pc(OPh)8]) was fabricated into nano-/micro-structures via solution-phase self-assembly. The self-assembling properties of Zn[Pc(OPh)8] in coordinating and non-coordinating solvents (methanol and n-hexane) have been comparatively studied by electronic absorption, fluorescence, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electronic microscopy (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. The conducting properties were evaluated by current–voltage (I–V) measurements. Due mainly to the presence of different intermolecular Zn–O coordination interactions between the Zn[Pc(OPh)…
UV laser induced photolysis of glycolic acid isolated in argon matrices
2021
The photochemistry of matrix-isolated glycolic acid, induced by UV light, was studied by FTIR spectroscopy and B3LYPD3/6-311++G(3df,3pd) calculations. Several decomposition pathways were found to take place upon 212 nm and 226 nm wavelengths irradiation. A number of complexes formed between photoproducts were identified, among them those of formaldehyde with water, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide as well as the H2O-CO complexes. The structure and spectroscopic assignment of the photoproducts were made comparing the experimental results with the theoretical predictions and available literature data. The observed formation of different complexes indicates various pathways for their formati…
Assessment of temperature effects on beta-aggregation of native and glycated albumin by FTIR spectroscopy and PAGE: relations between structural chan…
2007
Abstract Structural modifications of bovine serum albumin (BSA) induced by heating, and the involvement of glycation of albumin in such processing were studied by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). For native BSA, heating treatments gave rise to β structures which were amplified to the detriment of α-helix form, and which were associated with increased aggregation. A very high correlation was obtained between FTIR Amide I band evolution and aggregation rate parameters, showing the contribution of β-form in aggregates formation. We further assessed the effect of glycation on protein sensibility to heating treatments. A reductio…
