AbstractThe inhibitory effect of para-nitrophenol on the catalytic reaction of catalase was investigated. Michaelis-Menten kinetic parameters were determined from Lineweaver-Burk plots obtained in the absence or in the presence of the inhibitor. The inhibitor pattern, revealed by the Lineweaver-Burk plots, suggested a fully mixed inhibition mechanism. Spectrophotometric monitoring of the indicator reaction: $$H_2 O_2 \xrightarrow{{catalase,para - nitrophenol}}H_2 O + \tfrac{1}{2}O_2 $$ in conjunction with initial rate measurements was employed for the kinetic determination of the inhibitor. Calibration plots of initial rate vs. para-nitrophenol concentration were linear in the concentration range 0.9·10−5–2.5·10−5 mol/L and the detection limit was 3·10−6 mol/L (417 μg/L) para-nitrophenol. Interferences from other phenolic compounds like orto-cresole, meta-and orto-nitrophenol were observed.

Anew sensitive kinetic method has been developed for the determination of trace amounts of phenylhydrazine in the range of 1.08x10-7 to 1.08x10-6 g/cm3. The detection limit of this method is 0.008 ?g/cm3, based on the 3Sb criterion. Themethod is based on the inhibitory effect of phenylhydrazine on the oxidation of Victoria Blue 4-R by KBrO3. The reaction was monitored spectrophotometrically at 596.3 nm. The method development includes the optimization of the reagent concentration and temperature. The kinetic parameters of the reaction are reported and a rate equation is suggested. The effects of certain foreign ions upon the reaction rate were determined for the assessment of the selectivity of the method. The new developed method was found to have fairly good selectivity, sensitivity, simplicity and rapidity.

A kinetic method is described for the determination of Se(IV) based on its inhibiting effect on the Fe(III) catalysis of the oxidation of C6H5COONa with hydrogen peroxide. The detection limit is 0.06 pg cmT The relative error ranges between 2.1 and 9.5 % for the concentration interval 0.26 to 2.6 ?g cm-3. Kinetic equations are proposed for the investigated process. The effects of certain foreign ions upon the reaction rate were determined in order to assess the selectivity of the method. The method was applied for the determination of Se(IV) in pharmaceutical samples.

A new kinetic method is described for the determination of ultramicro amounts of Cu(II) based on its catalytic effect on the oxidation of trisodium-2-hydroxy 1-(4-sulphonato-1-naphthylazo)naphthalene-6,8-disulphonato (red artificial color PONCEAU 4R) by hydrogen peroxide in borate buffer (B.B). The detection limit given by Perez-Bendito is 0.8 ng/cm3, but the detection limit that we experimentaly determined is 3.8 ng/cm3. The relative error ranges between 7.77 and 2.09%for the concentration interval 3.8 to 50.1 ng/cm3. Kinetic equations are proposed for the investigated process. The effects of certain foreign ions upon the reaction rate were determined for an assessment of the selectivity of the method. The method was applied for the determination of Cu(II) ions in samples of alloy.

A new catalytic reaction is proposed and a kinetic method developed for the determination of ultramicro amounts of As(III) on the basis of its catalytic activity in the oxidation of ethylenediamine-N,N?-diacetic-N,N? dipropionic acid (EAP) by KMnO4 in the presence of hydrochloric acid. Under optimal conditions, the sensitivity of the method is 20 ng/cm3. The probable relative error is 7.6 ? 14.5 % for the concentration range 50 ? 200 ng/cm3 As(III). The effect of certain foreign ions upon the reaction rate were determined for the assessment of the selectivity of the method. The method has relatively good selectivity. Kinetic equations were proposed for the investigated process.

A new reaction is suggested and a new kinetic method is elaborated for the As(HI) traces determination in solution, on the basis of their catalyzing effect on komplexon III (EDTA) oxidation by KMnO4 in a strong acid solution (H2SO4). Using a spectrophotometric technique, a sensitivity of 72 ng/cm3 As(IIl) was achieved. The relative error of method varies from 5.5 to 13.9 % for As(HT) concentration range from 83 to 140 ng/cm-1. Appropriate kinetic equations are formulated and the influence of some other ions, including the As(V), upon the reaction rate is tested.

Abstract A steady-state kinetic method has been revised for measuring lactate dehydrogenase isoenzyme activities, which relates the inhibition of heart-type isoenzyme activity to the overall isoenzyme composition of the enzyme subunits. The method depends on the pH-dependent formation of an inhibitory ternary complex by the heart-type isoenzyme with NAD+ and pyruvate (if the reaction is measured by NADH oxidation). A preincubation step in the previous method is eliminated. The isoenzymes are measured by measuring the reduction of pyruvate in two different concentrations, which favor either the total or fractional activity, depending on the concentrations of pyruvate and the percentage of heart-type subunits. The method has been adapted to a centrifugal analyzer, which has speeded automated isoenzyme determinations, with an accuracy comparable to that for electrophoretic methods.

The present paper describes a simple, selective and sensitive kinetic method for the determination of trace amounts of Sb(III) in the presence of Sb(V) based on its inhibition effect on the redox reaction between bromate and Victoria blue 4R (V.B. 4-R) in hydrochloric acid media. The reaction was followed spectrophotometrically by measuring the decrease in the absorbance of V.B. 4-R at 596.3 nm. Optimum operating conditions regarding reagent concentrations were established. The optimized conditions yielded a theoretical detection limit of 1.30·10‒8 g cm–3 Sb(III) based on the 3S0 criterion. The method allows the determination of Sb(III) in the range of 5·10‒8 ‒ 1.1·10‒6 g cm–3. The effects of certain foreign ions the reaction rate were determined for an assessment of the selectivity of the method. The kinetic parameters of the reaction were reported, and the rate equations were suggested. The results were validated statistically and through recovery studies. The proposed method has been successfully applied to the determination of Sb(III) in various model and real samples.
