As one of the featured products in northeast China, Oviductus Ranae has been widely used as a nutritious food, which contains a variety of bioactive unsaturated fatty acids (UFAs). It is necessary to establish a scientific and reliable determination method of UFA contents in Oviductus Ranae. In this work, six principal UFAs in Oviductus Ranae, namely eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), linolenic acid (ALA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), arachidonic acid (ARA), linoleic acid (LA) and oleic acid (OA), were identified using UPLC-MS/MS. The UFAs identified in Oviductus Ranae were further separated based on the optimized RP-HPLC conditions. Quantitative analysis of multi-components by single-marker (QAMS) method was implemented in content determination of EPA, ALA, DHA, ARA and OA, where LA was used as the internal standard. The experiments based on Taguchi design verified the robustness of the QAMS method on different HPLC instruments and chromatographic columns. The QAMS and external standard method (ESM) were used to calculate the UFA content of 15 batches of Oviductus Ranae samples from different regions. The relative error (r < 0.73%) and cosine coefficient showed that the two methods obtained similar contents, and the method validations met the requirements. The results showed that QAMS can comprehensively and effectively control the quality of UFAs in Oviductus Ranae which provides new ideas and solutions for studying the active components in Oviductus Ranae.

The analysis of mineralogical composition by quantitative X-ray diffraction (QXRD) is one of the standard research methods used in hydrocarbon exploration. In order to improve it and to obtain better results, the methodology of quantitative analysis used at Well Logging Department is being periodically (more or less) modified. After the introduction of the improvements, comparative analyses were performed on archival samples. Reflections from an unidentified phase which did not occur in the tested Rotliegend sandstone samples were noticed on X-ray diffractograms of archival samples. Reflections of a mineral called simonkolleite were identified in the X-ray diffraction database. Chemically it is a hydrated zinc chloride of the formula: Zn5Cl2(OH)8 × H2O. Analysis of the composition of samples in which simonkolleite crystallised, indicated that the mineral is being formed in the result of the slow reaction of zinc oxide with halite (NaCl) and water vapour. An attempt was made to determine the influence of the presence of this mineral on the results of the quantitative analysis of mineralogical composition. The above methodology was applied on a group of ten samples. The results of the quantitative analysis conducted for archival samples stored with added zincite standard containing simonkolleite and for new, freshly grinded (without artifact) samples were compared. The comparison of the obtained results showed a slight influence of this mineral on the quantitative composition of the remaining components. The difference between the results usually did not exceed the method error. At the same time a significant difference in the calculated content of the internal standard was noted – on average 1% less in archival than in new samples. This shows that the reaction occurring in the archival samples will affect the evaluation of the quality of the obtained quantitative analysis, at the same time excluding the possibility of determining the rock’s amorphous substance content with the internal standard method.

AbstractIn spite of the wide availability of automated diffractometers and advanced data reduction software, numerous traditional problems still exist that make highly precise and accurate quantitative analyses of complex mixtures difficult. The problems include particle statistics, primary extinction, microabsorption, preferred orientation, overlapping and broad reflections, variation in standard data with composition, availability of pure standards, and detection of amorphous and trace phases. Our analyses of rocks use the matrix flushing method on < 5μm particle-size material mixed with a 1.0-μm corundum internal standard to minimize the first four effects. Integrated intensities are used, and we employ several peaks from each phase whenever possible. We overcame overlap problems through iterative calculations using integral, multiple peaks or with profile refinement. Use of observed and calculated diffraction patterns for every phase enables us to predict the effects of composition and preferred orientation on RIRs. This allows us to correct for these effects if reference intensity ratios (RIRs) are known as a function of composition and orientation. Detection of amorphous phases is a significant problem, and standard mixtures reveal that amounts of amorphous components below 30% are difficult to detect. The poor detection limit and the nature of the diffraction band from amorphous phases make internal standard or spiking methods the best approach for analyzing samples containing amorphous materials. The Rietveld method of quantitative analysis has the potential to minimize all of the above problems. This method requires a knowledge of the crystal structures of all component crystalline phases, but no calibration data are necessary, structural and cell parameters can be varied during the refinement process, so that compositional effects can be accommodated and precise cell parameters can be obtained for every phase. Since this method fits the entire diffraction pattern and explicitly uses all reflections from every phase, complex, overlapped patterns can be easily analysed. In addition, this method presents the opportunity to correct for preferred orientation and microabsorption during data analysis.

Abstract Isotope dilution analysis was used to quantitate 2- aminoacetophenone in wines exhibiting the so- called untypical aging off-flavor. d3-Aminoacetophe- none was synthesized and used as isotopomeric internal standard. The method of quantitation was verified by several model experiments. In the off-flavored wines studied, amounts of 2-aminoacetophe none ranging from 0.7 to 12.8 μg/L were determined.
