Immobilization of reagents by polymeric materials. Determination of metamizol
1992
Abstract A method for immobilization of inorganic reagents, based on the dispersion of the reagent into an unsaturated polyester solution is applied to immobilization of lead dioxide. The obtained solid is of application in a flow-injection manifold for indirect atomic absorption determination of metamizol in pharmaceutical formulations. The procedure gives a linear calibration graph up to 6 ppm of metamizol with a relative standard deviation of 1.6% (3.0 mg/l) and a sample throughput of 72 hr−1.
Liquid chromatographic determination of aliphatic amines in water using solid support assisted derivatization with 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate
2002
A simple and sensitive method has been developed for the liquid chromatographic determination of short-chain aliphatic amines in water. Analytes are retained in solid-phase extraction (SPE) cartridges, and then derivatized by drawing an aliquot of the fluorogeneic reagent 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC) through the cartridges. After a certain reaction time the derivatives formed are desorbed with acetonitrile. The collected extracts are then chromatographed on a LiChrospher 100 RP18 125 mm×4 mm i.d., 5 μm, column using an acetonitrile-water gradient. The influence of experimental conditions (SPE material, volume of sample, concentration of FMOC, time of reaction and pH) has been inve…
Prediction of wheat dough W and P/L inflation test parameters by capillary zone electrophoresis of a protein extract followed by multivariate regress…
2004
A procedure for the evaluation of the wheat flour hardness, based on capillary electrophoresis of a protein extract in an isoelectric acidic buffer, was developed. The 13 flour samples were extracted twice, and two injections of each extract were made. Separations were performed in a background electrolyte (BGE) containing 40 mM aspartic acid, 6 M urea, and 0.5% hydroxyethylcellulose at 60 degrees C. Using the normalized and corrected areas of 79 peaks and peak groups, a partial least squares regression (PLS1) model was able to predict the flour strength or dough deformation work (W) and the dough tenacity/extensibility ratio (P/L) (Alveograph parameters) with an average relative standard d…
Determination of diphenhydramine hydrochloride by flow injection with Bromophenol Blue and turbidimetric measurement
1990
The study of a number of diphenhydramine-dye systems was carried out in order to determine the most suitable precipitate for the turbidimetric determination of diphenhydramine using flow injection (FI). The reagent selected was Bromophenol Blue. The chemical and FI variables were optimised. The calibration graph was linear over the concentration range 50-230 p.p.m. of diphenhydramine hydrochloride. A number of interfering substances were also investigated.
A multinjection strategy for mercury speciation.
2005
Abstract A multiinjection strategy has been developed to increase the sampling throughput of the high-performance liquid chromatography determination of inorganic-mercury, methylmercury, ethylmercury and phenylmercury. The method involves the injection of samples each 3.5 min, in spite of the fact that phenylmercury retention time corresponds to 9.04 min. In the selected conditions, the sampling frequency was 11 h −1 in front of that of 6 h −1 , obtained by conventional injection of each sample after the complete elution of Hg species. Additionally, the analytical reagents consumption was reduced drastically in almost 50%. The main characteristics of the chromatographic separation were main…
Alkaline haematin D-575, a new tool for the determination of haemoglobin as an alternative to the cyanhaemiglobin method. I. description of the method
1984
A new method for the rapid and accurate measurement of haemoglobin has been developed as an alternative to the conventional cyanhaemiglobin method. This method is based on the conversion of all haeme, haemoglobin, and haemiglobin species into a stable end product by an alkaline solution of a non-ionic detergent ('AHD reagent'). The reaction product, designated as alkaline haematin D-575, is extremely stable and shows a characteristic absorption peak at 575 nm. As compared to the cyanhaemiglobin method, the determination of haemoglobin by alkaline haematin D-575 offers several advantages such as (1) extreme stability of the AHD reagent and the conversion product, (2) decreased conversion tim…
Continuous-flow spectrophotometric determination of sulfadiazine by diazotisation with in situ preparation of nitrite
1995
Abstract Nitrite is prepared in situ for the determination of sulfadiazine. The method is based on solid-phase reduction of copperized cadmium of nitrate; the nitrite reagent merges with the sample stream in hydrochloric acid medium and the resulting mixture is injected into the water carrier, pure distilled water, and then merges with the N-(1-naphthyl)ethylendiamine reagent and is measured spectrophotometrically at 542.0 nm. The calibration graph is linear over the range 0.5–50 μg ml−1 sulfadiazine, mid-range R.S.D. = 0.3% (n = 5) and sample throughput 72 h−1. The procedure is applied to sulfadiazine determination in a pharmaceutical formulation and to in vitro dissolution studies of two …
Determination of hydroquinone and metal in photographic developer by reversed-phase ion-pair chromatography with amperometric detection
1988
Abstract Sodium 1-heptanesulphonate is used as an ion-pair reagent for the chromatographic separation of the two developing agents on a phenylsilica micro-column, with amperometric detection at an applied potential of + 0.75 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). No pretreatment of the developer is necessary. Linear calibration graphs were obtained in the range 10 −5 -1.5 × 10 −4 M.

Accuracy, Reliability, and Safety of Luminol in Bloodstain Investigation
2002
ABSTRACTThe reliability of luminol as a presumptive test reagent was studied in this work. The possibility of obtaining a false negative subsequent to contamination of the test specimen was determined. The behavior of luminol with respect to a contaminant was compared to other reagents used in similar tests. Following an analysis of the test results, other test sensitivity, and safety data, it was concluded that luminol is a more reliable reagent than others due to a higher improbability of producing false positives and false negatives, apart from being safer than other substances. It should, therefore, be considered as a “preferable” or “first choice” reagent for use in presumptive tests.
