Flow‐Injection Chemiluminescent Determination of Thiamine in Pharmaceutical Samples by On‐line Photodegradation
2004
Abstract A simple, sensitive, and precise method for the determination of thiamine hydrochloride in a flow‐injection system is described. The method is based on the UV irradiation of thiamine in acid medium. Then, the photo‐fragments are oxidized by permanganate in acid medium, and the resultant chemiluminescent intensity is measured. The optimum conditions for the photoreaction and for the chemiluminescence emission were investigated. The method allows the determination of thiamine, over the range 0.05(LOD)–84 mg · l−1, with a throughput of 30 h−1, and a RSD (n, 20) at 20 and 0.5 mg · l−1 of the thiamine level of 2.5 and 1.3%, respectively. The method was applied to pharmaceutical preparat…
Photochemical-chemiliminometric determination of aldicarb in a fully automated multicommutation based flow-assembly
2004
[EN] A sensitive and fully automated method for determination of aldicarb in technical formulations (Temik) and mineral waters is proposed. The automation of the flow-assembly is based on the multicommutation approach, which uses a set of solenoid valves acting as independent switchers. The operating cycle for obtaining a typical analytical transient signal can be easily programmed by means of a home-made software running in the Windows environment. The manifold is provided with a photoreactor consisting of a 150 cm long x 0.8 mm i.d. piece of PTFE tubing coiled around a 20 W low-pressure mercury lamp. The determination of aldicarb is performed on the basis of the iron(III) catalytic minera…
Analytical strategy photodegradation/chemiluminescence/continuous-flow multicommutation methodology for the determination of the herbicide Propanil
2006
The present paper is dealing with an analytical strategy based on coupling photodegradation, chemiluminescence and multicommutation continuous-flow methodology for the determination of the pesticide Propanil, a common herbicide. The pesticide solution is inserted as small segments sequentially alternated with segments of the solution for adjusting the suitable medium for the photodegradation. Both flow-rates (sample and medium) are adjusted to required time for photodegradation, 2.0 min; and then, the resulting solution is also sequentially inserted as segments alternated with segments of the oxidizing solutions system, 1.00 x 10(-4) mol 1(-1) potassium permanganate in 2.00 mol 1(-1) sulphu…
A Fully Automated Assembly Using Solenoid Valves for the Photodegradation and Chemiluminometric Determination of the Herbicide Chlorsulfuron
2005
Abstract This paper presents a new photochemiluminescent system for the determination of chlorsulfuron in water samples. The light from a low‐pressure mercury lamp is used as a clean, reproducible, and inexpensive “reagent” for the derivation of the pesticide, performed in glycine buffer at pH 9.5. Then, the photo‐products from irradiation are oxidized by permanganate in sulfuric acid solution. The oxidation reaction was favored by using high temperatures. A comparative study and discussion about the use of polyphosphoric acid instead of sulfuric acid in the oxidation reaction is also presented. The use of solenoid valves allows for the easy, complete automation of the process with low samp…
FI-on line photochemical reaction for direct chemiluminescence determination of photodegradated chloramphenicol.
2002
Abstract A new, simple, clean and selective flow injection strategy based on the tandem photochemical reaction-chemiluminescence detection was applied to the determination of chloramphenicol. The determination is based on the on-line photodegradation of the drug in a glycine buffer at pH 8.8 by using a photoreactor consisting of 697 cm×0.5 mm PTFE tubing helically coiled around an 8 W low-pressure mercury lamp. Photodegradated chloramphenicol is detected by direct chemiluminescence of resulting photo-fragments and their subsequent reaction with potassium permanganate in sulfuric acid medium as oxidant. The method allows the chemiluminescence determination of compounds which do not exhibit n…
Flow injection-chemiluminescence determination of octyl dimethyl PABA in sunscreen formulations
2002
Abstract A sensitive flow injection (FI) procedure was developed for the determination of the UV-filter octyl dimethyl PABA in sunscreen formulations based on its chemiluminescence (CL) induced by potassium permanganate in sulfuric acid. Both second-order and log–log calibration graphs can be used to perform the analysis. Ninety injections per hour can be carried out, which means a sample throughput of 18 h −1 if five injections per solution are performed. The limit of detection (3 σ ) was 25 ng ml −1 . The interference effects of the excipient and other UV filters are studied. Sunscreen formulations containing octyl dimethyl PABA were analysed by both the proposed FI-CL method and a liquid…
Enhanced flow-injection–chemiluminometric determination of sulphonamides by on-line photochemical reaction
2003
Abstract The viability of the tandem photochemical reaction-chemiluminescence detection has been studied for an heterogeneous group of sulphonamides (sulphamethoxazole, sulphadiazine, sulphamerazine, sulphamethoxypyridazine, sulphacetamide, sulphadimidine, sulphanilamide, sulphathiazole and sulphaguanidine) using sulphamethoxazole (whose chemiluminescent behaviour has not been previously reported) as a test substance. The ‘on-line’ photochemical-reaction of sulphonamides provides an enhancing influence on the chemiluminometric response of the drugs during their oxidation by potassium permanganate in sulphuric acid medium (sulphamethoxazole, sulphacetamide, sulphadimidine and sulphanilamide …
Photo-induced chemiluminescence determination of the pesticide Buminafos by a Multicommutation flow-analysis assembly
2008
Abstract The preliminary experiments in this paper deal with the photo-induced chemiluminescent behaviour of Buminafos family, after the experimental screening tests and several of them resulted positive, the herbicide Buminafos was selected to develop a new analytical method. The determination of Buminafos was performed with the aid of a Multicommutation (a solenoid valve set) assembly. The method involves the on-line photo-degradation of the analyte (stopped flow, 5 s) with the selected suitable medium (0.05% hydrogen peroxide) and its subsequent chemiluminescent oxidation by the potassium permanganate. Sample solution alternated segments with the photo-degradation medium; and, after the …
On-line bi-directional electrostacking for As speciation/preconcentration using electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry.
2006
A method using bi-directional electrostacking (BDES) in a flow system is presented for As preconcentration and speciation analysis. Some parameters such as electrostacking time and applied voltage, support buffers and their concentrations were investigated. Boric acid plus sodium hydroxide at 0.1mol/l concentration was selected as support buffer to improve the pre-concentration factor (PF) for As(V). An analytical range from 2.0 to 50.0mugl(-1), and 0.35mugl(-1) as limit of detection, when applied 750V for 20min, were achieved. Under these conditions, a pre-concentration factor of 4.8 was obtained. The proposed method was applied to determine As(V) in mineral water and natural water samples…
Treatment of heavy petroleum hydrocarbons polluted soil leachates by ultrafiltration and oxidation for surfactant recovery
2018
Abstract Surfactant technology can improve the remediation of soils polluted by semivolatile hydrophobic contaminants, like polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), by enhancing their solubility in water. However, the recovery of surfactant from soil-leachates is critical for the economic feasibility of this treatment technology. To tackle this issue, ultrafiltration (UF) and its combination with permanganate, is reported for the selective recovery of surfactant from wastewater contaminated by a complex mixture of heavy hydrocarbons mainly composed of PAHs. The overall performance of the process including the successive steps of contaminant mobilization in leachates and surfactant recovery …
