A simple and rapid SPE-HPLC/PDA method has been developed for the quantitative determination of tetracyclines in soils. An ultrasonic extraction system for the soil samples was confirmed as a combination of a 1:2 ratio of EDTA-McIlvaine buffer solution with methanol by comparing the extraction efficiency of 4 solvents and optimising the combination ratio. The soil extracts were purified and concentrated by Oasis-MAX cartridge followed by HPLC separation and PDA detection. The optimal chromatographic condition effectively separated the object and interfering substance, which can improve the sensitivity of the instrument. The limits of detection were lower than 20 μg·kg-1, and the limits of quantification were no more than 60 μg·kg-1 for all compounds in the soil. The recoveries of tetracyclines peaked at levels of 50-500 μg·kg-1 and averaged at 62.1% to 108.9% with relative standard deviation values of less than 5%. This method was applied to analyse real soil samples from suburban Beijing farmland, and TC and OTC residues were detected in the soil.

A novel, safe and sensitive method of Spectrophotometric estimation in UV - region has been developed for the assay of Fimasartan in its tablet formulation. The present study was undertaken to develop and validate a simple, accurate, precise, reproducible and cost effective UV spectrophotometric method for the estimation of Fimasartan bulk and pharmaceutical formulation. The method have been developed and validated for the assay of Fimasartan using Methanol as diluent. Absorption maximum (λmax) of the drug was found to be 240nm. The quantitative determination of the drug was carried out at 240nm. The method was shown linear in the mentioned concentrations having correlation coefficient R2 of 0.999. The recovery values for Fimasartan ranged from 98.74% to 99.23%.The Percent Relative Standard Deviation of interday and intraday was 0.85% and 0.75% respectively. All the parameters of the analysis were chosen according to the International Conference on Harmonisation guideline and validated statistically using Relative Standard Deviation and Percent Relative Standard Deviation. Hence, proposed method was precise, accurate and cost effective. This method could be applicable for quantitative determination of the bulk drug as well as dosage formulation.   KEY WORDS:

Background: Attenuated total reflection-Fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR) spectroscopy is a rapid quantitative method which has been applied for pharmaceutical analysis. This work describes the utility of first derivative ATR-FTIR spectroscopy in the quantitative determination of diclofenac sodium tablets. Methods: This analytical quantitative technique depends on a first derivative measurement of the area of infrared bands corresponding to the CO stretching range of 1550-1605 cm-1. The specificity, linearity, detection limits, precision and accuracy of the calibration curve, the infrared analysis and data manipulation were determined in order to validate the method. The statistical results were compared with other methods for the quantification of diclofenac sodium. Results: The excipients in the commercial tablet preparation did not interfere with the assay. Excellent linearity was found for the drug concentrations in the range 0.2 – 1.5 w/w %.  (r2= 0.9994). Precision of the method was assessed by the repeated analysis of diclofenac sodium tablets; the results obtained showed small standard deviation and relative standard deviation values, which indicates that the method is quite precise. The high percentage of recovery of diclofenac sodium tablets (99.81, 101.54 and 99.41%) demonstrate the compliance of the obtained recoveries with the pharmacopeial percent recovery. The small limit of detection and limit of quantification values (0.0528 and 0.1599 w/w %, respectively) obtained by this method indicate the high sensitivity of the method. Conclusions: First derivative ATR-FTIR spectroscopy showed high accuracy and precision, is considered as nondestructive, green, low cost and rapid, and can be applied easily for the pharmaceutical quantitative determination of diclofenac sodium tablet formulations.

Abstract Dibenzoyl methane is introduced as a new coupling agent for the determination of nitrogen dioxide in air and for nitrite in water and soil samples. Nitrogen dioxide is fixed as nitrite in NaOH–sodium arsenite trapping solution and also in triethanoamine trapping solution. The method is based on the diazo coupling reaction of p-nitro aniline with a new coupling agent, dibenzoyl methane. The azo dye formed under aqueous alkaline condition has an absorption maximum at 520 nm and obeys Beer’s law over a range of 0–20 μg nitrite per 10 ml analyte. The dye formed is stable for 40 h. The relative standard deviation is 2.8% for 10 determinations at 10 μg nitrite per 10 ml analyte. The color system upon extraction with isobutyl methyl ketone–amyl alcohol (1+1) shows a λ max at 520 nm and a Beer’s law range of 0–4 μg nitrite. The developed color is stable for 7 h in the organic phase. The relative standard deviation is 3.0% for 10 determinations at 2 μg nitrite. The molar extinction coefficient of the color system is 3.6 × 104 L/(mol·cm). The effect of interfering gases and ions on the determination is described. The method was applied to the determination of residual amounts of nitrogen dioxide present in the laboratory fume cupboard and in automobile exhaust gas. The method was also applied to the determination of nitrite and nitrate in water and soil samples. The results obtained were compared with the standard sulfanilamide–NEDA (N-1 naphthyl ethylene diamine dihydrochloride) method. The method can be used to determine levels as low as 0.5 μg nitrite in aqueous medium and 0.1 μg nitrite upon extraction.

AbstractA procedure for the automated determination of ammonia in tobacco has been developed. Ammonia is extracted from the ground tobacco sample with water and is determined with a Technicon Auto Analyser system which employs separation of the ammonia through volatilization followed by colourimetry using the phenate-hypochlorite reaction. The procedure has been applied to a variety of tobaccos containing from 0.02 to 0.5 % ammonia with an overall relative standard deviation of 2 %. The accuracy of the procedure as judged by recovery tests and by comparison to a manual distillation method is considered adequate

Abstract The classic method for determination of milk casein is based on precipitation of casein at pH 4.6. Precipitated milk casein is removed by filtration and the nitrogen content of either the precipitate (direct casein method) or filtrate (noncasein nitrogen; NCN) is determined by Kjeldahl analysis. For the indirect casein method, milk total nitrogen (TN; Method 991.20) is also determined and casein is calculated as TN minus NCN. Ten laboratories tested 9 pairs of blind duplicate raw milk materials with a casein range of 2.42- 3.05℅ by both the direct and indirect casein methods. Statistical performance expressed in protein equivalents (nitrogen ⨯ 6.38) with invalid and outlier data removed was as follows: NCN method (wt%), mean = 0.762, sr = 0.010, SR = 0.016, repeatability relative standard deviation (RSDr) = 1.287℅, reproducibility relative standard deviation (RSDR) = 2.146%; indirect casein method (wt℅), mean = 2.585, repeatability = 0.015, reproducibility = 0.022, RSDr = 0.560℅, RSDR = 0.841; direct casein method (wt℅), mean = 2.575, sr = 0.015, sR = 0.025, RSDr = 0.597℅, RSDR = 0.988℅. Method performance was acceptable and comparable to similar Kjeldahl methods for determining nitrogen content of milk (Methods 991.20, 991.21,991.22, 991.23). The direct casein, indirect casein, and noncasein nitrogen methods have been adopted by AOAC INTERNATIONAL.

X-ray powder diffraction methods, successful in quantitative determination of silicate minerals in fine-grained rocks, have been applied to the determination of calcite, dolomite, and magnesite in greenschist facies meta-volcanic rocks. Internal standard graphs employing two standards (NaCl and Mo) have been determined.Carbonate mineral modes (calcite and dolomite) for 6 greenschist facies meta-volcanic rocks obtained by the X-ray powder method have been compared to normative carbonate mineral contents calculated for the same rocks. This comparison showed a maximum variation of 7.7 wt.% between the X-ray modes and the normative carbonate mineral contents of the rocks. Maximum standard deviation for the X-ray modes of these rocks was equivalent to 4.4 wt.%.
