An analytical method for the simultaneous determination of five booster biocides (Sea-Nine 211, Dichlofluanid, Duiron, Irgarol 1051 and Pyrithiones) and degradation product of Irgarol 1051 (M1) in sediment from Vietnam was developed by LC/MS-MS. The recovery rates and relative standard deviation of the booster biocides in the sediment were in the range of 71–108% and 1.5–12%, respectively, and the detection limits were in the range of 0.04–2 μg kg−1 dry. An analytical method for the simultaneous determination of three booster biocides (Sea-Nine 211, Duiron and Irgarol 1051) and M1 in clams was also developed by LC/MS-MS. The recovery rates and relative standard deviations of the booster biocides in the biological samples were in the range of 60–99% and 3.4–6.8%, respectively, and the detection limits were in the range of 0.24–1.1 μg kg−1.The booster biocides in sediment from the coastal area of northern and central Vietnam were measured using this analytical method. Sea-Nine 211, Dichlofluanid, Duiron, Irgarol 1051, M1 and Pyrithiones were detected in the range of 0.09–1.3 μg kg−1 dry, <0.10–13 μg kg−1 dry, 0.11–3.0 μg kg−1 dry, 0.05–4.0 μg kg−1 dry, <0.1–0.43 μg kg−1 dry and <2–420 μg kg−1 dry, respectively. The detection frequencies of Dichlofluanid, M1 and Pyrithiones were low. The species and levels of detected booster biocides varied between sampling stations.Irgarol 1051 and its degradation product M1 were not detected in clams.

Abstract A new second-order-derivative spectrophotometric method using zero-crossing technique measures quinapril (QUI) and hydrochlorothiazide (HYD) in 2-component mixtures. The procedure does not require prior separation of components from the sample. QUI was determined at a wavelength of 211.6 nm (zero-crossing wavelength point of HYD). Similarly, HYD was measured at 270.8 nm (zero-crossing wavelength point of QUI). Calibration graphs were constructed over the concentration range of 4.0 to 24.0 μ/mL for QUI and 2.5 to 15.0 μg/mL for HYD. Detection and quantitation limits were 0.85 and 2.5 μg/mL for QUI and 0.12 and 0.4 μg/mL for HYD, respectively. The accuracy (recovery 100.5–102%), precision (relative standard deviation less than 3.5% for QUI and 1.5% for HYD), selectivity, and sensitivity of the elaborated methods were satisfactory. The proposed method was applied successfully for the determination of both drugs in QUI-HYD tablets.

Abstract A single-laboratory validation study was conducted for a liquid chromatographic/mass spectrometric (LC/MS) method for the simultaneous determination of the free carnitine and total choline in milk-based infant formula and health-care products. The sample preparation used for both carnitine and choline was adapted from AOAC Official Method 999.14, with an acidic and enzymatic hydrolysis of esterified forms of choline. Carnitine and choline were quantified by ion-pair chromatography with single-quadrupole MS detection, using their respective deuterated internal standards. The repeatability relative standard deviation was 2.5 and 2.1, respectively, for carnitine and choline. The intermediate reproducibility relative standard deviation was &lt;4.7 and 2.4, respectively, for carnitine and choline. The ranges of the average product-specific recoveries were 9298 and 94103, respectively, for carnitine and choline. Choline concentration determined in infant formula reference material SRM 1846 was in agreement with the reference value. The proposed method was compared with the enzymatic methods for a range of products; good correlation (r = 0.99) was obtained, although a significant bias was observed for both analytes. The method, with a short chromatographic run time (7 min), is convenient for routine analysis to enhance analytical throughput and is a good alternative to enzymatic assays.

Abstract A new analytical method is described for the simultaneous determination of various components by multiwavelength spectrophotometry. Because of the influence of the free ligand and various complexes on spectrophotometric absorption, the spectral correction principle was used to establish the calculation matrix formula. The 3 sensitive reactions of Cu(II), Fe(II), and Zn(II), with 1-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid were studied at pH 10.5. In analyses of fortified samples, the recoveries of Fe, Zn, and Cu were between 93.0 and 103%, 87.0 and 108%, and 92.5 and 108%, respectively; the relative standard deviations for 5 determinations of Fe, Zn, and Cu in unfortified ore were 3.6, 5.8, and 4.5%, respectively.

A new, simple, rapid and precise novel hyphenated diffuse reflectance-Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (DRS-FTIR) technique for the simultaneous determination of the most frequently used cationic surfactants (CS+) i.e. cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and anionic surfactant (AS-) i.e. sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) in domestic, sewage and river wastewater samples has been stabilised. CS+ and AS- were analyzed using DRS-FTIR, the most steady and strongest vibrational IR peak at 2917.13 cm-1 for CTAB and 1226.07 for SDS were selected for the simultaneous quantiflcation of CS+ and AS- under the optimized condition such as effect of samples volume and effect of temperature. The limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantiflcation (LOQ) of the present method were 5 µg/mL and 15 µg/mL, respectively. The absorbance and peak area were determined by the DRS-FTIR method, which shows excellent linearity with a correlation coefflcient value of 0.985 and 0.981 for the concentration range of 10-100 µg/mL. The standard deviation (SD) and relative standard deviation (RSD) for six replicate measurements were found to be 0.052 µg/L and 2.8 %, respectively.

Abstract An analytical method has been developed for the determination of arprinocid (9-(2-chloro- fluorophenylmethyl) -9ff-purin-6-amine) in feed, based upon measurement of the absorbance of the diazo chromophore formed from product of zinc reduction of the drug in acidic solution. The analyte is extracted from the feed into chloroform in the presence of a pH 7 phosphate buffer and isolated by adsorption chromatography on alumina, followed by partitioning between hexane and 0.15M HC1. The reduction product in the aqueous phase is then treated for colorimetric measurement. This procedure has been applied to determining 0.0010-0.0080% arprinocid in feed with precision of &lt;5% relative standard deviation near the middle of this concentration range. Of 32 feed additives examined, only zoalene and sulfamethazine were serious interferences. study and discussion of several factors, e.g., reaction time, pH, and amount of zinc metal, that affect the analytical reactions are also included.

Abstract The simultaneous determination of mycotoxins was performed in 3 steps: extraction, cleanup, and detection. For extraction, a mixture of acetonitrile–water (60 + 40, v/v) was proved appropriate. For cleanup, a new Afla-Ochra-Zea immunoaffinity column was used. After derivatization with trifluoroacetic acid, the mycotoxins aflatoxins, ochratoxin A (OTA), and zearalenone (ZEA) were determined simultaneously by liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection. The detection limits in different matrixes after cleanup with the new immunoaffinity column were very low: aflatoxins, 0.002–0.7 μg/kg; OTA, 0.07–0.25 μg/kg; ZEA, 1–3 μg/kg. The limits of determination were: aflatoxins, 0.25 μg/kg; OTA, 0.5 μg/kg; ZEA, 5 μg/kg. The recovery rates for aflatoxins, OTA, and ZEA for rye and rice were between 86 and 93% when a 0.5 g sample matter per immunoaffinity column was used.

Abstract A simple method has been developed for the simultaneous determination of N-butylscopolamine bromide and oxazepam in pharmaceutical formulations using first-order digital derivative spectrophotometry. Acetonitrile was selected as the solvent in which both compounds showed well-defined bands. Both analytes showed good stability in this solvent when solutions of the analytes were exposed to light and temperatures between 20° and 80°C. The simultaneous determination of both drugs was performed by the zero-crossing method at 226.0 and 257.0 nm for N-butylscopolamine and oxazepam, respectively. The linear range of determination was found to be 2.5 × 10−7 to 8.0 × 10−5 mol/L for N-butylscopolamine and 7.1 × 10−8 to 8.0 × 10−5 mol/L for oxazepam. A very good level of repeatability (relative standard deviation) of 0.2% was observed for N-butylscopolamine and oxazepam. The ingredients commonly found in pharmaceutical formulations do not interfere. The proposed method was applied to the determination of these drugs in pharmaceutical formulations (capsules).
