This report describes a method for the analysis of tri-aryl phosphate esters used commercially as lubricants. In a fish toxicity study, Imol S-140 (tri-tolyl phosphate) was extracted from fish tissue and water samples, hydrolyzed, and the individual phenols measured by gas chromatography as the trimethylsilyl derivatives. The lower detection limit was about 3 ppm of Imol in wet fish tissue.

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.

A highly sensitive method for the determination of epinephrine was proposed, which was based on the perturbation of epinephrine to Briggs-Rauscher oscillating system involving malonic acid, Mn2+, H+, IO3 - and H2O2 at non-equilibrium stationary state. The concentration of KIO3 was chosen as a control parameter to find the bifurcation point in this paper. Results showed that a well linear relationship between the difference of potential and the negative logarithm concentrations of epinephrine existed in the range of 1.1?10-7?5.2?10-9 mol L-1 with a lower detection limit of 6.8?10-10mol L-1 and a correlation coefficient of 0.9974. Compared to the classical oscillating reaction, this method has a lower detection limit and wider linear range. The effects of some foreign species, which may possibly be existed with epinephrine, on determination were also investigated. The proposed method has been successfully used to determine the epinephrine both in the serum and adrenaline hydrochloride injection.

Abstract A comparison was made of the direct determination of thiamine In acidified heated chicken extracts, by either flow injection or chromatographic determination, with the standard method (acid and enzyme digestion, adsorption, and elutlon, followed by the fluorometric determination of thiochrome extracted by Isobutanol from K3Fe(CN)6-treated eluates). Liquid chromatography of extracts, followed by oxidation of thiamine vitamers to thlochromes, showed 1 light scatter emission peak and 2 thlochromes, the latter corresponding to thiamine and thiamine monophosphate. Both forms were determined quantitatively by flow Injection determination, the lower detection limit of which was about 60 femtomol. The determination was linear from 0.1 ng to 10 μg thlamlne/mL, and the pooled coefficient of variation was 4%. The determination of thiamine in chicken extracts provides a nondestructive method for determining thiamine and Its phosphate esters, either In toto by flow Injection determination or as individual components by chromatography.

The polyacrylamide hydrogel (PAMG) has been used in cosmetology in China, Ukraine and Russia since 1990s. Because the monomer acrylamide(AM) used to produce PAMG has been implicated as a potential mutagen and reproductive toxicant[1,2], it is important to accurately determine the amount of residual AM monomer in the PAMG. In this study, a quick, practical and simple method to determine AM is presented with respect to the hydrogel. AM is analysed quantitatively by ODS-3 column with ultraviolet (UV) absorbance detector. AM is separated from interferential component with an aqueous solution of 0.9%NaCl (NS) adjusted at pH~3.7 using hydrochloric acid and then detected at a UV wavelength of 210 nm. The results show that ODS-3 is effective approach for quantifying AM concentrations in PAMG. This method has a lower detection limit of 0.003µg/ml and a linear response range of 0.003 and 0.9 µg/ml (depending on the range required for analysis). Precision studies give coefficients of variation of <3.2%(n=5) for 0.003µg/ml. The recoveries for this method are greater than 90%. When AM content in PAMG is lower than the detection limit of this method, SPE (solid phase extraction) could be used to concentrate AM. In the case, C18 cartridge is used. And the recoveries are about 70% for SPE when AM concentration is lower than ppb.

AbstractThis paper described the determination of p-nitroaniline in a double organic substrate oscillating system of tartrate-acetone-Mn2+-KBrO3-H2SO4. Under the optimum conditions, temperature was chosen as a control parameter to design the bifurcation point and proposed a convenient method for determination of p-nitroaniline. Results showed that the system consisting of 3.5 mL 0.06 mol L−1 tartrate, 4.0 mL 0.7 mol L−1 H2SO4, 1.5 mL 1.5×10−4 mol L−1 MnSO4, 4.0 mL 0.4 mol L−1 acetone and 7.0 mL 0.05 mol L−1 KBrO3 was very sensitive to the surrounding at 33.5°C. A good linear relationship between the potential difference and the negative logarithm concentration of p-nitroaniline was obtained to be in the range of 2.50×10−7∼3.75×10−5 mol L−1 with a lower detection limit of 2.50×10−8 mol L−1.

Abstract A method is presented for the determination of ethylene chlorohydrin and ethylene oxide residues in plastic and rubber surgical equipment. Samples are extracted with p-xylene and the desired constituents are isolated by column chromatography. Ethylene oxide is converted to ethylene chlorohydrin on a Celite column. Sweep co-distillation is then employed for further purification, if necessary, before gas-liquid chromatographic analysis. The lower detection limit is approximately 25 ng. Recoveries of 3.5’50 ppm chlorohydrin from 20’35 g samples range from 64 to 100%, depending on the absorbing capacity of the material being analyzed and the condition of the adsorbent.

Method 1623

Giardia and Cryptosporidium have emerged as waterborne pathogens of concern. This study examined both parasites in actual water samples, which were taken from Cheng-Ching Lake waterworks in southern Taiwan. The Method 1623 was characterized by a higher recovery rate and lower detection limit compared with the ICR protozoan method. It was discovered that water turbidity reduced the recovery efficiencies, and raised the detection limits for both parasites, regardless of the method used. The concentrations of both parasites showed inconsistency for different recovery rates and detection limits between the two methods. A significant correlation between water turbidity and Cryptosporidium oocysts in raw water samples were found in this study.

Abstract We report a fast and simple high-speed liquid-chromatographic assay for serum retinol. Only 100 mul of serum is required. The lower detection limit is 50 mug/liter; linearity was demonstrated up to 1.50 mg/liter. On analyzing a serum pool eight times, a CV of 2.5% was obtained. Values by this method are compared with results obtained by a flurometric method [Clin. Chem. 16, 766(1970)].
