We propose a new method for the selective detection of the antibiotic metronidazole (MNZ) using CB[7]-JAT (cucurbit[7]uril = CB[7] and JAT = jatrorrhizine) as a fluorescent probe, which is based on the competitive reaction between MNZ and JAT for the occupancy of the CB[7] cavity. The proposed method gives a good calibration curve in the concentration range of 0.38–60 μM, and the limit of detection for MNZ is 65 ng mL−1 with those obtained by the standard curve method. Moreover, the proposed method was successfully applied for the determination of MNZ in liquid milk. Most importantly, due to the high binding affinity between CB[7] and MNZ, the proposed method shows great anti-interference capacity to accurately detect MNZ in the presence of other antibiotics.

A method is described for the determination of nickel in heavy crude oil by carbon rod atomic absorption spectroscopy in the parts per million range. A 5-g sample is completely dissolved to 25 ml of tetrahydrofuran (THF) stabilized with 0.1% hydroquinone and further diluted with THF. Nickel can be measured at a concentration of 0.1 ppm with a relative standard deviation of about 10% after a 100-fold dilution of the crude. The analysis by standard curve method as well as standard additions methods gave reproducible results. These results also agreed well with values obtained by conventional activation analysis. The method is relatively rapid after sample dilution.

In pH=5.70 B-R buffer solution, Na2WO4 and rhodamine 6G(R6G) could react with natural cytokinins of 6-benzylaminourine (6-BA) and kinetin (KT) and resulted in a great enhacement of synchronous light scattering (SLS) signals. This article first established the degree of polarized synchronous light scattering (P) based on the measurements of the polarized synchronous light scattering signals to distinguish two natural cytokinins of 6-BA and KT. Simultaneously based on the synchronous scattering spectrum and the double standard curve method, a novel method for simultaneous determination of 6-BA and KT was developed by SLS spectralmethod. The method was applied to simultaneous determination of 6-BA and KT in balsam pear skin and tomato skin with satisfactory results.

A method to overcome the numerous interferences present for the determination of titanium in Venezuelan laterites and bauxites has been adopted. The technique is based on dissolving the sample in the HF-H3BO3 matrix. The advantages of using this system are discussed. After the sample is decomposed in this system, 1 part of 2000 ppm of Al, Si, and Fe in the same system is added to 9 parts of the decomposition solution. The atomic absorption determination is employed using the conventional standard curve method for the 364.3 nm line. A comparison of this method with x-ray fluorescence and colorimetry is given in search of one method for routine batch determinations. Interference studies of aluminium, silicon, and iron, the common major elements in Venezuelan laterites and bauxites, conclude that both aluminum and iron greatly affect the absorption signal for titanium. The proposed method, as well as x-ray fluorescence and colorimetry, was applied to standard reference rocks and a preliminary profile of Venezuelan laterites (ferrugineous bauxites).

East Kalimantan has a diversity of plants from various Dayak ethnic groups. One of them is the Tabar Kedayan (Aristolochia foveolata Merr) plant located in Malinau district. This plant is empirically efficacious as antidiarrhea, antidotum (anti poison). Efficacy of Tabar Kedayan plant has not been scientifically confirmed, this is because there is still little scientific research and information about the content of secondary metabolites and bioactive compounds contained in Tabar Kedayan Root. The presence of secondary metabolite is phenolic which has considerable biological active prospects as antioxidant, antibacterial, antiamuba, anti-inflammatory, antihepatotoxic and antivirus. The aim of this research is to analyze the chemical content and total phenolic content of root tabar kedayan in fractionation with various nonpolar, semipolar and polar solvents. The analysis used in the determination of total phenolic content using visible spectrophotometric method. Data of analysis used standard curve method based on absorbance data and concentration of standard solution. The results of this study obtained the highest total phenolic average on ethyl acetate fraction of 77.74 ±2,633 mg GAE/g then ethanol fraction of water amounted to 38.10 ±0,461 mg GAE/g and the smallest level of n-hexane fraction of 29.36±0,193 mg GAE/g.

Background: A key challenge in the process of virus amplification is the need for a simple and convenient method for measuring virus titers. Objective: Real-time unlabeled cell analysis (RTCA) was used to establish a standard curve of correlation between half-cell index time (CIT50) and virus titer. At the same time, the virus titer from tunable resistance pulse detection (TRPS) technology was compared with the traditional median tissue culture infectious dose (TCID50) method to evaluate the feasibility and application value of the RTCA technique and TRPS technology. Methods: : Cell index (CI) values for L929 cells under different culture conditions were detected, and the appropriate initial cell inoculation density was screened. The half-cell index (CI50) values of reovirus infected L929 cells with TCID50 titers were analyzed by RTCA, the CI50-TCID50 standard curve was created, and a regression equation was developed. RTCA, TCID50, and TRPS methods were used to detect the reovirus titer obtained by the amplification, and the sensitivity and feasibility of the CIT50-TCID50 standard curve method were analyzed. The virus titer was detected by TRPS technology and the TCID50 method. Results: L929 cells were best propagated at an initial density of 6 × 103 cells/well. After infecting L929 cells with different titers of reference reovirus, the linear correlation of CIT50 and TCID50 was y = -2.1806x + 71.023 (R2 = 0.9742). The titer resulting from the RTCA assay was 7×109.6821 pfu/mL, from the TRPS assay was 4.52×1010 pfu/mL, and from the TCID50 assay was 7×109.467 pfu/mL. Conclusion: The CIT50-TCID50 standard curve method established by the RTCA technique can be used to quantitatively detect reovirus titer with L929 cells. Compared with the TCID50 method, it takes a relatively short time and has high sensitivity and accuracy. The TRPS technology requires even less time to quantify the virus, but its precision is lower than that of the TCID50 method and RTCA technology. This study provides new technical methods for assessing the virulence of infectious live reovirus particles. Lay Summary: After amplification of the virus, we need to detect the virus titers (the virulence of the virus). The traditional method is to use the virus to infect cells, and then the virus titers can be calculated by 50% of the cells infected. However, this traditional method is time consuming. The ways of RTCA (a real-time cell analysis technique) and TRPS (a nano-bioparticle analysis technique) help us to detect viral titers. The consistency of these three methods determines their feasibility and accuracy. If they are feasible, then these two simple technologies will provide new ideas for detecting viral titers.

CuxO-NiO nanocomposite film for the non-enzymatic determination of glucose was prepared by the novel modifying method. At first, anodized Cu electrode was kept in a mixture solution of CuSO4, NiSO4 and H2SO4 for 15 minutes. Then, a cathodization process with a step potential of -6 V in a mixture solution of CuSO4 and NiSO4 was initiated, generating formation of porous Cu-Ni film on the bare Cu electrode by electrodeposition assisted by the release of hydrogen bubbles acting as soft templates. Optimized conditions were determined by the experimental design software for electrodeposition process. Afterward, Cu-Ni modified electrode was scanned by cyclic voltammetry (CV) method in NaOH solution to convert Cu and Ni nanoparticles to the nano-scaled CuxO-NiO film. The electrocatalytic behavior of the novel CuxO-NiO film toward glucose oxidation was studied by CV and chronoamperometry (CHA) techniques. The calibration curve of glucose was found linear in a wide range of 0.04–5.76 mM, with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 7.3 µM (S/N = 3) and high sensitivity (1.38 mA mM-1 cm-2). The sensor showed high selectivity against some usual interfering species and high stability (loss of only 6.3 % of its performance over one month). The prepared CuxO-NiO nanofilm based sensor was successfully applied for monitoring glucose in human blood serum and urine samples.

A practical method for the determination of cyanide in bamboo shoots has been developed using microdiffusion preparation integrated with ion chromatography–pulsed amperometric detection (IC-PAD). Cyanide was released from bamboo shoots after Conway cell microdiffusion, and then analysed by IC-PAD. In comparison with the previously reported methods, derivatization and ion-pairing agent addition were not required in this proposed microdiffusion combined with IC-PAD method. The microdiffusion parameters were optimized including hydrolysis systems, temperature, time, and so on. Under the optimum conditions, the linear range of the calibration curve for cyanide was 0.2–200.0 µg kg −1 with satisfactory correlation coefficients of 0.9996 and the limit of detection was 0.2 µg kg −1 ( S/N  = 3). The spiked recovery range was from 92.8 to 98.6%. The intra-day and inter-day relative standard deviations of cyanide were 2.7–14.9% and 3.0–18.3%, respectively. This method was proved to be convenient in operation with high sensitivity, precision and accuracy, and was successfully applied in the determination of cyanide in bamboo shoot samples.

Abstract A liquid extraction method is described that permits rapid determination of cholecalciferol (D3) in rodenticidal grain baits. Purified D3 was incubated for various time periods to produce pre-D3. Response ratios (concentration/detector response) for various concentrations of pre-D3 and D3 in solutions permitted generation of a correction factor for direct quantitation of pre-D3 in solutions with a pure D3 standard. The method has equal precision and accuracy, yet is simpler and less time consuming and requires less solvents than widely accepted methods for extracting D3 from grain baits. Recoveries from control oat baits fortified at 0.05 and 0.75 wt% were 100.9 and 98%, respectively. A standard curve for concentrations ranging from 6.4 to 204 μg/mL had an r2 of 0.9999 and an intercept of zero and was linear and proportional. The method limit of detection was 2.0 × 10−4 wt % D3.
