Optimization of a microwave-assisted extraction large-volume injection and gas chromatography–ion trap mass spectrometry procedure for the determinat…
2006
Abstract A sensitive and rapid method for the determination of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) and polychlorinated naphthalenes (PCNs) in sediment samples is proposed. The method involving microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) and large-volume injection (LVI) gas chromatography (GC)–ion trap mass spectrometry (ITMS), and the experimental conditions were optimized using the statistical design of experiments (DOE). A Plackett–Burman (P–B) design was chosen to estimate the influence of five factors, such as resonance excitation voltage (EV), isolation time (IT), excitation time (ET), ion source temperature (IST) and electron energy (EE) on the analytical r…
Miniaturized matrix solid phase dispersion procedure and solid phase microextraction for the analysis of organochlorinated pesticides and polybromina…
2009
Abstract This work has developed a miniaturized method based on matrix solid phase dispersion (MSPD) using C18 as dispersant and acetonitrile–water as eluting solvent for the analysis of legislated organochlorinated pesticides (OCPs) and polybrominated diphenylethers (PBDEs) in biota samples by GC with electron capture (GC-ECD). The method has compared Florisil®-acidic Silica and C18 as dispersant for samples as well as different solvents. Recovery studies showed that the combination of C18–Florisil® was better when using low amount of samples (0.1 g) and with low volumes of acetonitrile–water (2.6 mL). The use of SPME for extracting the analytes from the solvent mixture before the injectio…
Determination of caffeine in tea samples by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry
2002
A sustainable and environmentally friendly procedure has been developed for the FTIR determination of caffeine in tea leaf samples. The method is based on the extraction with ammonia and CHCl3 and direct determination of caffeine on the chloroform extracts using peak height absorbance measurements at 1658.5 cm(-1) and external calibration. The method provides a sensitivity of 0.2142 absorbance units mg(-1) mL and a limit of detection of 1 mg L(-1), corresponding to 0.002% m/m caffeine in tea leaves. As compared with a reference procedure, based on UV absorbance measurement at 276 nm after low pressure column chromatography, the developed procedure reduces the consume of CHCl3 by a factor of…
A rapid HPLC assay for zearalenone in laboratory cultures ofFusarium graminearum
1993
A high pressure liquid chromatographic (HPLC) method to determine zearalenone in corn contaminated withFusarium graminearum is described. After extraction with methanol-water and solvent partition, samples were cleaned up by applying the extract to a disposable silica cartridge and by eluting the toxin with a mixture of hexane/dry ethyl ether (5/5). Separation was achieved by a reverse phase μBondapak C18 column followed by fluorescence detection using an excitation wavelength at 274 nm and an emission wavelength at 440 nm. Detection limit was about 5 ng. Recoveries ranging from 85.37 to 100.97%, in standard solutions range 30–0.5 µg/ml, were found.
Contributions to the analysis of organic xenobiotics in fish
1995
For the residue-analysis of fish samples, a method has been developed to separate the medium polar triazines and acetamides together with lipophilic xenobiotics (organochlorine pesticides, PCBs and octachlorostyrene) from fish tissue. The detection limits of the analytes are mostly within the ppt-range (ng/kg fillet) and vary between 40 and 1050 ng/kg fillet of fish. Their recoveries range from 75 to 108%, spiked at 1.5 μg/kg. The substances are extracted with a mixture of petroleum ether/ethylacetate (2:1) using a soxhlet apparatus. Subsequently, the lipids in the sample extracts are reduced to 0.4% by gel chromatography. A 5 g silica gel clean-up separates the analytes according to their …
Isolation, structure elucidation, and biological evaluation of the unusual heterodimer chrysoxanthone from the ascomycete IBWF11-95A
2009
Chrysoxanthone, an unusual heterodimer of blennolide A and 2-hydroxychrysophanol linked through a diaryl ether bridge, was isolated from mycelia of the ascomycete IBWF11-95A grown in submerged culture. Its structure was elucidated by two-dimensional NMR spectroscopy. The metabolite shows antibacterial activity against different species with MIC values between 2.5 and 20 μg/mL while also inhibiting the growth of several fungi.
Synthese und eigenschaften von oxydo-p-oligophenylenen. 18. Mitteilung über poly- und oligophenylene
1965
Oxydosubstituierte p-Oligophenylene leiten sich vom Dibenzofuran ab, sind also brukkensubstituierte Oligophenylene. Ihre Darstellung erfolgte mit Hilfe der ULLMANN-Reaktion unter Verwendung von Jodderivaten des Dibenzofurans; zu deren Darstellung dienten entsprechende Aminoverbindungen. Einige Oxydo-p-oligophenylene wurden auf der Grundlage der Kupplungs-Reaktion von o-Chlorphenyl-diazoniumverbindungen mit p-Benzochinon und nachfolgendem Oxydoringschlus an daraus hervorgehenden 2-Chlor-2′-hydroxybiarylen erhalten. Als weitere Ringschlus-Reaktion wurde die dehydratisierende Atherspaltung von 2,2′-Dimethoxybiarylen angewandt. Damit konnte die Synthese eines Trioxydo-p-quaterphenyls, eines dur…
Dialkyl(butadiene)cyclopentadienylmolybdenum(III) Complexes. Synthesis, Characterization, and Reactivity
2000
International audience; Treatment of CpMo(η4-diene)Cl2 (diene = 1,3-butadiene, C4H6, 1‘; isoprene, C5H8, 1‘ ‘; 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene, C6H10, 1‘ ‘) in diethyl ether at low temperature with 2 equiv of alkylmagnesium RMgX reagents affords the corresponding dialkyl complexes CpMo(η4-1,3-diene)R2 (2, 2‘, 2‘ ‘, R = CH3, a; CH2Ph, b; CH2SiMe3, c). These species are isolable in moderate yields and have been fully characterized by EPR, elemental analyses, and cyclic voltammetry. They all show a reversible reduction process at relatively low potentials and an irreversible oxidation. The structure of 2‘ ‘a was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The mixed complex CpMo(η4-C4H6)Cl(CH3), …
Isomerism in [MCl2(ERR‘)2] (M = Pd, Pt; E = S, Se; R, R‘ = Me, Ph)
2006
A series of thioether and selenoether complexes [MCl2(EPh2)2] and [MCl2(SMePh)2] (M = Pt, Pd; E = S, Se) have been prepared and characterized to explore the isomerism of the complexes in solution and in the solid state. The NMR spectroscopic information indicates that only one isomer is present in solution in case of the palladium complexes, while two isomers are formed in the case of most platinum complexes. Single-crystal X-ray structures of trans-[PdCl2(SPh2)2] (1t), trans-[PdCl2(SePh2)2] (2t), cis-[PtCl2(SePh2)2] (4c), trans-[PdCl2(SMePh)2] (5t), and trans-[PtCl2(SMePh)2] (7t) are reported and have been used as starting points for the X-ray powder diffraction structure determinations us…
Aqueous Processed Biopolymer Interfaces for Single-Cell Microarrays
2020
Single-cell microarrays are emerging tools to unravel intrinsic diversity within complex cell populations, opening up new approaches for the in-depth understanding of highly relevant diseases. However, most of the current methods for their fabrication are based on cumbersome patterning approaches, employing organic solvents and/or expensive materials. Here, we demonstrate an unprecedented green-chemistry strategy to produce single-cell capture biochips onto glass surfaces by all-aqueous inkjet printing. At first, a chitosan film is easily inkjet printed and immobilized onto hydroxyl-rich glass surfaces by electrostatic immobilization. In turn, poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether is graft…
