Determination of lecithin and soybean oil in dietary supplements using partial least squares-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy.
2008
Lecithin and soybean oil in dietary supplements were determined by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry transmission measurements in dichloromethane in combination with a partial least squares (PLS) regression. Two different PLS models were developed, using 16 synthetic mixtures of analytes in dichloromethane, making measurements in the spectral range from 931.8 to 1252.3 cm(-1) for lecithin and from 911.4 to 1246.9 cm(-1) and 1695.3 to 1774.5 cm(-1) for soybean oil. Seven products from the Spanish market with lecithin concentrations between 21.1% and 99.1% and soybean oil concentrations between 0% and 37.2% were analyzed by the proposed method and the data was compared to a chromatograp…
Literature survey of the on-line preconcentration in flow-injection atomic spectrometric analysis
1992
The literature on the use of “on-line” preconcentration in flow injection atomic spectrometric analysis is reviewed, taking into account its application both in flame and electrothermal atomic absorption methods as well as in plasma emission spectrometry. The basis of the different preconcentration approaches, such as liquid-liquid extraction, column preconcentration and “on-line” precipitation are discussed. The literature survey reveals the analytical performance of the developed methodologies.
Spectrophotometric Determination of the Antihistamines, Carbinoxamine Maleate and Doxylamine Succinate, in anN-Cetylpyridinium Chloride Micellar Medi…
1996
Abstract The pyridine antihistamines carbinoxamine maleate and doxylamine succinate were derivatized by hydrolysis with cyanogen bromide and coupling with aniline to form a polymethine dye, and determined by colorimetry. In a micellar cationic medium of N-cetylpyridinium chloride (NCPC), the reaction times were reduced and the sensitivities improved. In 0.1 M NCPC the apparent molar absorptivities of the derivatives were 5,900 and 3,500 M−1 cm−1, and the limits of detection (as 3s) were 8.6x10−7 M and 1.7x106 M, for carbinoxamine and doxylamine, respectively. The sensitivity was enhanced in a three- to six-fold factor with respect to a non-micellar medium. The reproducibility was 0.8% for 1…
Kinetic-Spectrophotometric Determination of Primary and Secondary Amines by Reaction with 1-2 Naphthoquinone-4-Sulphonate.
1994
Abstract A kinetic-spectrophotometric method for the determination of primary and secondary amines is described. It is based on the coloured reaction of these amines with sodium 1,2 Naphthoquinone 4-sulphonate (NQS) in the presence of a non-ionic surfactant. For each determination the optimum conditions were studied and found to be as follows: pH 10.5. Carbonate-bicarbonate buffer 0.1M, Triton X-100 0.1%, Temperature 45°C, and NQS 6.4 × 10−3 M and interval of time 45–180s at wavelength 490 nm. The parameters used for the quantitative determinations are the reaction rate and the increase in the absorbance of the kinetic curves. This procedure has been applied to the determination of ephedrin…
Flow injection-spectrophotometric determination of metoclopramide hydrochloride.
1997
Abstract The determination of metoclopramide hydrochloride is spectrophotometrically determined by the Bratton-Marshall method in a flow injection assembly. The required nitrite is prepared on-line in the flow assembly by reducing a nitrate solution with the aid of a copperised cadmium solid-phase reactor. The calibration graph is linear over the range 0.5–85 mg l−1, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 0.89%, and sample throughput of 51 samples h−1. The method is easy and simple, and it is applied to determination of metoclopramide in some pharmaceutical formulations. The method eliminates the need for frequent preparation of unstable nitrite solutions.
Comparative Study on the Determination of Cephalexin in its Dosage Forms by Spectrophotometry and HPLC with UV-vis Detection
1997
This paper discusses the spectrophotometric determination of cephalexin as the intact cephalexin or as its acid-induced degradation product. Cephalexin can be determined in the range 1 × 10−5−18 × 10−5M with relative standard deviations of 5-1%. The limits of quantitation and detection were 10−5 and 0.3 × 10−5M, respectively. These procedures were compared with reversed-phase HPLC determination. No interference was observed in the presence of common pharmaceutical adjuvants. The H-point standard additions method was applied in order to correct for the possible presence of the cephalexin precursor, 7-aminocephalosporanic acid; this improves the selectivity of the UV-vis spectrophotometric me…
Speciation of tetraalkyllead compounds by flow injection — atomic absorption spectrophotometry
1990
The on-line demetallation of alkyllead compounds, with iodine, and further emulsification, provides a fast determination of total lead content in liposoluble matrices, such as gasolines. It can be carried out in a double channel manifold, using a magnetically well stirred dilution chamber for the emulsification of the samples, previous to their analysis by flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry. On the other hand, the different behaviour of tetraethyllead (TEL) and tetramethyllead (TML) can be employed for speciation of both compounds in the sample. The effect of the flow injection parameters on the sensitivity and accuracy has been studied and the figures of merit of the proposed method…
A comparison of various calibration techniques applied to the ninhydrin-cefoxitin determination
1996
Abstract This report deals with spectrophotometric determination of cefoxitin from intact antibiotics or from its acid induced degradation product by means of their reaction with ninhydrin in a strong sulphuric acid medium. To obtain the calibration graphs four methods were used: absorbance of reacted cefoxitin against a reagent blank as an analytical signal, first-derivative signal of absorbance against a water blank as an analytical signal, first-derivative signal of absorbance against a reagent blank as an analytical signal and the H-Point Standard Additions Method (HPSAM) by using absorbance increment values as analytical signals. The HPSAM is applied to the determination of cefoxitin i…
Development of the H-point standard additions method for coupled liquid chromatography and UV-visible spectrophotometry
1992
Abstract This work establishes the fundamentals of the H-point standard additions method for liquid chromatography for the simultaneous analysis of binary mixtures with overlapped chromatographic peaks. The method was compared with the deconvolution method of peak suppression and the second derivative of elution profiles. Different mixtures of diuretics were satisfactorily resolved.
Spectrophotometric determination of nalidixic and pipemidic acids in a flow injection assembly with a solid-phase reactor as a highly stable reagent …
2001
Abstract The flow-injection spectrophotometric determination of nalidixic (I) and pipemidic (II) acids were carried out by reaction with Fe(III) ions entrapped in a polymeric material and filling a packed-bed reactor; the released Fe(III) complexed with the quinolone is monitored at 426 nm. The method worked with a high reproducibility, even when using different reactors, days and solutions. Selectivity of the procedure was tested with different foreign compounds found in human urine as well as in pharmaceutical formulations containing both quinolones; no relevant interferences were observed. The calibration graph for (I) was linear over the range 1–250 μg ml −1 with a relative standard dev…
