This investigation has resulted in an analytical method for the quantitative determination of total lanthanide concentration in aqueous solution by absorbance at 240 nm in the ultraviolet followed by quantitative determination of individual lanthanide ion concentrations by the use of concentration-responsive absorption peaks in the 190–235 nm region. The 240-nm peak is present and is proportional to concentration regardless of the ligand employed to complex the lanthanides (including H2O). The individual lanthanide/ligand peaks in the 190–235 nm region were selected on the basis of their separation from one another, their linearity of absorbance vs. concentration, and their statistical reliability based on replicate sample analyses. Lanthanides involved in this investigation were La+3, Nd+3, Eu+3, Ho+3, and Yb+3. Ligands ultimately selected for complexation were citrate for La+3, Nd+3, and Ho+3, and DTPA for Eu+3, Ho+3, and Yb+3. When large amounts of heavy metal ions were present, a modified method was developed with citrate as the only complexing ligand for all five lanthanides. The method here developed permits the analyses of lanthanide ions in aqueous solution without prior separation and involves the use of comparatively inexpensive instrumentation (UV absorption spectrophotometer).

Abstract A convenient electrophoretic procedure for the separation and quantitation of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) isoenzymes is described. The system uses polyacetate Sepraphore III strips.* The areas of activity are shown by incubation with an LDH substrate combined with tetra-nitro-blue-tetrazolium. The reduction of the latter to the purple formazan is quantitatively related to the enzyme activity. Quantitative determination of the individual colored areas is performed by densitometry.

This paper concerns with the quantitative determination of ommochrome precursors in the Malpighian tubes of Drosophila melanogaster during the individual development. After separation by paper chromatography the amounts of tryptophane, kynurenine and 3-hydroxykynurenine have been estimated by a spectrophotometer. The concentrations of these three substances obtained from wild-type Malpighian tubes have been compared with the quantities of the mutants brown (bw) and red Malpighian tubes (red). During development there are significant variabilities in contents of tryptophane, kynurenine and 3-hydroxykynurenine in the Malpighian tubes. In the larval tubes large quantities of ommochrome precursors are accumulated. With the beginning of metamorphosis there is a distinct decrease in these substances. After hatching the amount increases steadily until reaching a constant level. In the Malpighian tubes there are also sex differences: in females the concentration of kynurenine and 3-hydroxykynurenine is higher than in males. The results obtained from the mutants brown and red Malpighian tubes are on principle the same as those obtained from wild-type. A strong reduction of kynurenine contents is found in the mutant red Malpighian tubes. Perhaps in this mutant the kynurenine-hydroxilase-activity is lower than in wild-type. The amounts of ommochrome precursors, accumulated in the larval Malpighian tubes, do not correspond in all cases to the contents of xanthommatine formed in the eyes of the adults.

Abstract A method has been developed for detecting residues of carbaryl (1-naphthyl methylcarbamate) as well as its hydrolysis product, 1-naphthol, in dead bees. The method is based on extraction of the bees with benzene, followed by a cleanup involving liquid partitioning and chromatography on Florisil. The quantitative determination involves hydrolysis of carbaryl to 1-naphthol and coupling of the latter with p-nitrobenzenediazonium fluoborate in acetic acid to form a yellow substance. For separate analysis, free 1-naphthol is separated from methylene chloride into a basic aqueous solution. The sensitivity of the method is about 0.1 ppm; recoveries averaged 85.6 ± 6.6% for 1- naphthol and 83.8 ± 2.7% for carbaryl.

Colorimetric Reaction

Variants of the compositions of a series of placers for visually blister colorimetric determination of phosphate ion concentrations in a blister cell (tablet for tablets) containing a mixture of reagents are proposed. The placers allow quantitative determination of the phosphate concentration in various objects without preliminary preparation of reagent solutions. The application of reagents to the surface of silica gel makes it possible to isolate all reagents until a chemical reaction occurs. The composition and conditions of deposition of crystalline substances – reagents capable of providing a sufficiently high acidity with the addition of a few drops of a solution and an optimal reducing agent for blister conditions were optimized. The visual colorimetric reaction is carried out under conditions when the volume of the added solution is 0.1–0.2 ml.
