Abstract A rapid and sensitive direct spectrophotometric method for the determination of cerebrospinal fluid protein which uses as little as 0.1 ml. of sample has been described. The result is not affected by the ratio of albumin to globulin in the sample. Interfering substances are removed prior to spectrophotometric measurement with an automatic separation chamber employing the principle of gel filtration. Slight alterations of the procedure described for the measurement of protein enable one to obtain the nonprotein moiety for study or to measure proteins in other biologic fluids.

Abstract The USP analysis for procainamide HCl is titrimetric and relatively nonspecific, capsule and tablet dyes may interfere, and the method is not applicable to coated tablets. In the spectrophotofluorometric method the sample deteriorates when exposed to a xenon source. In the ultraviolet spectrophotometric method reported here, the sample is dispersed in acid medium, possible interferences are extracted in chloroform, base is added, procainamide is extracted in chloroform, the residue is dissolved in sodium hydroxide, and the compound is measured by absorption at 272 nm and comparison with a standard. Recoveries of standards added to capsule, tablet, and injection composites ranged from 99.3 to 102%. Twelve collaborators reported duplicate assay results for all 3 dosage forms with per cent standard deviations for 5 samples ranging from 1.01 to 1.27%. The method has been adopted as official first action.

A study of extraction-spectrophotometric method for the determination of trace nitrite as 4-(4-nitrobenzenazo)-1-aminonaphthalene complex using n-amylalcohol and chloroform as organic solvents has been done. Results of the study showed that extraction-spectrophotometric determination of nitrite using n-amylalcohol or chloroform was very sensitive and had low limit of detection. Extraction-spectrophotometric method of nitrite using n-amylalcohol gave range of linear concentration 0.000-0.054 mg/L NO2--N, detection limit of 2.09x10-4 mg/L NO2--N, and sensitivity of 34.514 ± 0.398 absorbance unit per mg/L of NO2--N. Meanwhile, extraction-spectrophotometric of nitrite using chloroform had range of linear concentration of 0.000-0.100 mg/L NO2--N, detection limit of 8.99x10-4 mg/L NO2--N, and sensitivity of 18.353 ± 0.456 absorbance unit per mg/L NO2--N.   Keywords: Nitrite Trace, 4-(4-Nitrobenzenazo)-1-Aminonaphthalene, Extraction-Spectrophotometry

The oxidative derivatization method using potassium hydrogenperoxomonosulfate for the indirect spectrophotometric determination of Fluphenazine hydrochloride is presented. Potassium hydrogenperoxomonosulfate is introduced as a derivatizing agent for Fluphenazine hydrochloride, yielding the sulfoxide. This reaction product was successfully used for the spectrophotometric determination of the Fluphenazine hydrochloride. The UV spectroscopic detection of the sulfoxide proved to be a more robust and sensitive method. The elaborated method allowed the determination of Fluphenazine hydrochloride in the concentration range of 0.2-30 µg mL-1. The molar absorptivity at 349 nm is 5.6×103 (dm3cm-1mol-1). The limit of quantification, LOQ (10S) is 0.24 µg/mL. A new spectrophotometric technique was developed and the possibility of quantitative determination of Fluphenazine hydrochloride in tablets 5.0 mg was demonstrated. The present method is precise, accurate and excipients did not interfere. RSD for Fluphenazine Hydrochloride 5.0 mg tablets was 1.37 %.

A simple, accurate and sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determinaion of epinephrine is described . The method is based on the coordination of Pr (III) with epinephrine at pH 6. Absorbance of the resulting orange yellow complex is measured at 482 nm . A graph of absorbance versus concentrations shows that beer 's low is obeyed over the concentration range (1-50)mg.ml-1 of epinephrine with molar absorpitivity of ( 2.180x103 L.mol-1.cm-1 ), a sandell sensitivity of (0.084 mg.cm-2 ), a relative error of (-2.83%) , a corrolation coffecient (r= 0.9989) and recovery % ( 97.03 ± 0.75 ) depending on the concentration.This method is applied to analyse EP in several commercially available pharmaceutical preparations using direct methods .All statistical calculations are implemented via a Minitab software version 11.

Abstract A method has been developed for determining carbaryl (1-naphthyl N-methyl carbamate) in grains, based on hydrolysis of carbaryl with methanolic potassium hydroxide to 1-naphthol, reaction with 4-aminophenazone in the presence of alkaline oxidizing agent, and spectrophotometric measurement at the absorption maximum at 475 nm. The relationship between absorbance and concentration is linear in the range of 0.5-20 μg/mL. The method can be applied to levels as low as 0.3 ppm carbaryl in grains.

Abstract A previously reported visible spectrophotometric method for the analysis of aminacrine hydrochloride in creams, jellies, and suppositories was studied collaboratively by 8 laboratories. Aminacrine hydrochloride was extracted into acidic ethanol and its visible spectrum recorded. The amount present was calculated by determining the net absorbance between the absorbance maximum at about 402 nm and one-half the sum of the absorbance of the minima at about 389 and 412 nm. Each collaborator received 4 creams (0.2%), 1 jel (0.2%), 1 molded suppository (6 mg/3.198 g), and 2 gelatin-encapsulated suppository samples (12 mg/6.661 g and 14 mg/6.863 g). The cream samples included blind duplicates prepared to contain 0.212% aminacrine hydrochloride, 15% sulfanilamide, and 2% allantoin. Mean recovery for the authentic cream was 104.7% with a coefficient of variation (CV) of 9.22%. The commercial products contained these respective amounts (CVs): creams, 100.0% (2.48%) and 101.5% (2.16%); jel, 118.0% (9.58%); molded suppository, 102.7% (1.88%); and gelatin encapsulated suppositories, 93.1% (1.0%) and 94.3% (1.60%). Standard aminacrine hydrochloride provided for the study was 99.6% pure by nonaqueous titration. Thin layer chromatographic identification of aminacrine hydrochloride was also tested collaboratively. The method was not adopted by AOAC.

Abstract An improved visible spectrophotometric method has been developed for cyclopiazonic acid in poultry feed and corn. The method Is based on the reaction of cyclopiazonic acid with Ehrlich reagent and detection at 580 nm. Reaction conditions were optimized with respect to reaction and measurement times and acid and Ehrlich reagent concentrations. Calibration curves were linear from 1 to 20 μg cyclopiazonic acid in 3 mL Ehrlich reagent, with a lower detection limit of 0.08 mg/kg for 50 g samples of poultry feed and corn. Recoveries from 50 g samples of poultry feed spiked with cyclopiazonic ranging from 0.16 to 1.20 mg/kg averaged 93.8%. Moldy corn and poultry feed samples analyzed by this method contained between 1 and 4 mg/kg cyclopiazonic acid.

Abstract A visual screening method specifying phenolphthalein monophosphate as the substrate was applied to cheese by analyzing the extract obtained with 7.5% butanol. In the extraction step, all of the alcohol was added at one time, and the mixture was filtered after mixing. Analysis of 10 samples of various types of cheese resulted in data identical to that obtained by the Scharer rapid method. Quantitative data obtained by dialysis of the butanol filtrate and spectrophotometric measurement of the phenolphthalein compared favorably (r = 0.96) with data obtained by the Scharer spectrophotometric method on 13 samples of cheese.
