Derivatization techniques for automated chromatographic analysis of amphetamine usingo-phthaldialdehyde: A comparative study
2000
The potential of different chromatographic systems for automated, on-line analysis of amphetamine in biological fluids is illustrated. The various systems integrate analyte purification and enrichment, separation, derivatization in different derivatization modes witho-phthaldialdehyde (OPA) and N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), and fluorimetric detection. The reliability of the systems has been tested by analysing urine and plasma samples containing amphetamine in the 0.1–20.0 μg mL−1 range. Pre, on and post-column derivatization strategies are compared in terms of their instrumental requirements, selectivity, sensitivity, linearity and reproducibility.
Automated trace enrichment for screening and/or determination of primary, secondary and tertiary amphetamines in biological samples by liquid chromat…
1999
A rapid and simple liquid chromatographic method for the automated determination of amphetamines in biological fluids was developed. The proposed procedure is based on the injection of 250 microL of sample into a 20 x 2.1 mm id precolumn (packed with a 30 microns Hypersil C18 stationary phase) for enrichment and purification of the analytes. Next, the analytes are transferred to a 5 microns LiChrospher 100 RP18, 125 x 4 mm id analytical column for their separation under reversed-phase conditions. Water was used to eliminate the matrix components from the precolumn and a 0.2 M phosphate buffer (pH 3) containing 2% triethylamine was the mobile phase for the resolution of the amphetamines. The…
Bio-metal-organic frameworks for molecular recognition and sorbent extraction of hydrophilic vitamins followed by their determination using HPLC-UV
2020
A bio-metal-organic framework (bio-MOF) derived from the amino acid L-serine has been prepared in bulk form and evaluated as sorbent for the molecular recognition and extraction of B-vitamins. The functional pores of bio-MOF exhibit high amounts of hydroxyl groups jointly directing other supramolecular host-guest interactions thus providing the recognition of B-vitamins in fruit juices and energy drinks. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies reveal the specific B-vitamin binding sites and the existence of multiple hydrogen bonds between these target molecules and the framework. It offered unique snapshots to accomplish an efficient capture of these solutes in complex aqueous matrices. Fo…
Flow-injection spectrophotometric determination of arylamines and sulphonamides by diazotization and coupling in a micellar medium
1991
Abstract In a sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) micellar solution, the rate of coupling of a diazonium ion with N-(1- naphthyl)ethylenediamine (NED) increases greatly, the protonation of the resulting azo dyes takes place at higher pH values and the dyes are more soluble. These favourable features were applied to the development of a simple flow-injection spectrophotometric procedure for the determination of diazotizable substances of pharmaceutical interest. Limits of detection in the range 0.2–0.5 μg ml−1 (signal-to-noise ratio=3), with relative standard deviation of 0.7–3% (n=3) for 5 μg ml−1 standards, were obtained.
Determination of sulfide in waters by flow-injection solid phase spectrophotometry
2000
A highly sensitive flow injection solid-phase spectrophotometric method was developed for the determination of sulfide in waters. The method is based on the formation of Methylene Blue (MB) by reaction between sulfide and N,N-dimethyl-p-phenylenediamine chloride in presence of Fe(III) in acidic medium. The MB formed was adsorbed on C18 bonded silica, located inside a laboratory-made flow cell, which was placed in the optical path of the spectrophotometer. Analyte retention and detection at 666 nm were performed simultaneously, followed by elution with a mixture of methanol and hydrochloric acid. Several variables of the system, such as amine concentration, acidity of the reaction medium, re…
Selective flow-injection biamperometric determination of sulfur-containing amino acids and structurally related compounds
2001
Abstract A simple and selective flow-injection method for the determination of cysteine and methionine is proposed. The method is based on the reaction of the amino acid with chloramine-T and the subsequent reaction of the excess of chloramine-T with an acidic solution of iodide producing a stoichiometric amount of tri-iodide (diminution of the flow-injection analysis (FIA) peak) which is determined biamperometrically using two platinum electrodes polarized at 100 mV. The calibration graph is linear up to 10 μg ml−1 of cysteine and 30 μg ml−1 of methionine; the limit of detection is 0.06 and 0.1 μg ml−1; the repeatability (also as percent of a series of 70 continuous FIA peaks of 5 μg ml−1 …
Flow injection biamperometric determination of chloramine-T in environmental, pharmaceutical and veterinary samples
2000
Abstract A flow injection assembly for the determination of chloramine-T is proposed. The sample (213 μl) is inserted into the carrier, de-ionized water flowing at 4.1 ml min−1. This carrier merges with a mixture of potassium iodide and sulphuric acid, and the resulting solution flows to the flow cell through a reactor 66 cm long. The chloramine-T oxidises the iodide to tri-iodide. The resulting iodide/iodine ratio is biamperometrically tested. The calibration graph is linear up to 65 μg ml−1 chloramine-T; the limit of detection is 0.5 μg ml−1; the relative standard deviation (r.s.d) of the calibration slope is 2.8% for a series of eight independent calibrations. The r.s.d. of a series of 7…
Comparative study of the determination of trimethylamine in water and air by combining liquid chromatography and solid-phase microextraction with on-…
2005
This work describes a new approach for the determination of trimethylamine (TMA) in water and air by liquid chromatography (LC). The assay is based on the employment of a solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber for sampling and for derivatization of the analyte with the fluorogenic reagent 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC). The fiber, with a Carbowax-templated resin -50mum coating, was first immersed into a solution of the reagent. Once loaded with the reagent, the fiber was immersed into the water samples or exposed to the air samples in order to extract and to derivatize the analyte. Finally, the fiber was placed into a HPLC-SPME interface to desorb and transfer the TMA-FMOC derivat…

POLYASPARTAMIDE-POLYLACTIDE GRAFT COPOLYMERS WITH TUNABLE PROPERTIES FOR THE REALIZATION OF FLUORESCENT NANOPARTICLES FOR IMAGING
2015
Here, the synthesis and the characterization of novel amphiphilic graft copolymers with tunable properties, useful in obtaining polymeric fluorescent nanoparticles for application in imaging, are described. These copolymers are obtained by chemical conjugation of rhodamine B (RhB) moieties, polylactic acid (PLA), and O-(2-aminoethyl)-O'-methyl poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) on α,β-poly(N-2-hydroxyethyl)-D,L-aspartamide (PHEA). In particular, PHEA is first functionalized with RhB to obtain PHEA-RhB with a derivatization degree in RhB (DDRhB ) equal to 0.55 mol%. By varying the reaction conditions, different amounts of PLA are grafted on PHEA-RhB to obtain PHEA-RhB-PLA with DDPLA equal to 1.9, 4…
