A simple and rapid spectrophotometric method for flow injection determination of sulfite in tan wastewater is described. It was based on the fade reaction of sulfide ion with Ag (I)- (5-Bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethyl-aminophenol (5-Br-PADAP) in NaAc-HAc medium. The optimum conditions allow a linear calibration range of 0.01-1.10 μg ml-1sulfide ion. The detection limit is 0.0043 μg ml-1 (S/N=3), and the relative standard deviation for night replicate measurements is 2.1% for 0.5μg ml-1of sulfide ion. The procedure has been applied to the determination of sulfide in tannery wastewater. The results were in good agreement with those obtained by methylene blue spectrophotometric method.

A very simple, sensitive and fairly selective direct spectrophotometric method is presented for the rapid determination of thallium(III) at trace level. The method is based on the oxidation of 2-hydrazono-3-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[d]thiazole hydrochloride (MBTH) by thallium(III) in phosphoric acid medium to form a diazoniumcation, which couples immediately with 10,11-dihydro-5Hdibenzo[b,f]azepine (IDB) at room temperature giving a blue colored species having a maximum absorption at 660 nm. The reaction conditions and other important analytical parameters were optimized.The calibration curve was found to be linear over the range of 0.1-4 μg/mL with molar absorptivity of 4.5 × 104 L mol- cm-1 and Sandell’s sensitivity of 0.00454 μg cm-2. The relative standard deviation and limit of detection have been found to be 0.58% and 0.0147 μg/mL respectively. Almost all common anions and cations are found notto interfering in matrix level of the analytical process. The method has been successfully applied for the determination of thallium(III) in synthetic standard mixtures, water and human urine samples. The performance of proposed method was evaluated in terms of student’s t-test and variance ratio F-test, to find out the significance of proposed method over the reported methods.

The paper describes the development of an automatic on-line column pre-concentration technique using a time based-flow injection atomic absorption spectrometry system. A manifold incorporating a micro-column containing 25 mg of Dowex 50W-X8 was used with a time-based injector for the pre-concentration and determination of copper in natural and drinking waters. The system features depend on the alternate positions of a solenoid valve. The 3σ detection limits, enrichment factors, sampling frequency, relative standard deviations and linear calibration graphs were, respectively, in the range 0.6-1.5 μg/l, 25-60, 15-30 measurements/h, 1.0-3.1% and 1-65 μg/ml for pre-concentration times of 1 min. The procedure was successfully applied to a range of water samples and the accuracy was assessed through recovery experiments, the analysis of certified reference water samples and by independent analysis by atomic absorption spectrometry with electrothermal atomization.

A simple, rapid, and sensitive spectrophotometric method for the determination of trace amounts of selenium (IV) was described. In this method, all selenium spices reduced to selenium (IV) using 6 M HCl. Cloud point extraction was applied as a preconcentration method for spectrophotometric determination of selenium (IV) in aqueous solution. The proposed method is based on the complexation of Selenium (IV) with dithizone at pH < 1 in micellar medium (Triton X-100). After complexation with dithizone, the analyte was quantitatively extracted to the surfactant-rich phase by centrifugation and diluted to 5 mL with methanol. Since the absorption maxima of the complex (424 nm) and dithizone (434 nm) overlap, hence, the corrected absorbance, Acorr, was used to overcome the problem. With regard to the preconcentration, the tested parameters were the pH of the extraction, the concentration of the surfactant, the concentration of dithizone, and equilibration temperature and time. The detection limit is 4.4 ng mL-1; the relative standard deviation for six replicate measurements is 2.18% for 50 ng mL-1of selenium. The procedure was applied successfully to the determination of selenium in two kinds of pharmaceutical samples.

AbstractA simple and fast flow injection fluorescence quenching method for the determination of iron in water has been developed. Fluorimetric determination is based on the measurement of the quenching effect of iron on salicylic acid fluorescence. An emission peak of salicylic acid in aqueous solution occurs at 409 nm with excitation at 299 nm. The carrier solution used was 2 × 10−6 mol L−1 salicylic acid in 0.1 mol L−1 NH4+/NH3 buffer solution at pH 8.5. Linear calibration was obtained for 5–100 μg L−1 iron(III) and the relative standard deviation was 1.25 % (n = 5) for a 20 μL injection volume iron(III). The limit of detection was 0.3 μg L−1 and the sampling rate was 60 h−1. The effect of interferences from various metals and anions commonly present in water was also studied. The method was successfully applied to the determination of low levels of iron in real samples (river, sea, and spring waters).

The determination frequency is l00 times/h. The relative standard deviation of eleven replicates is less than 4.0%. The method has been applied to the determination of trace Cr(Ⅵ) in tanning wastewater with satisfactory results.

A spectrophotometric method was developed for the determination of trace Ru (III) is described, based on its catalytic effect of Ru (III) on the oxidation of dibromo caboxy arsenazo (DBCAA) by bromate in acidic and micellar medium at 100 °C. The reaction was monitored spectrophotometrically by measuring the decrease in the absorbance of the catalytic reaction of DBCAA at 530 nm with a fixed-time method. The calibration curve for the recommended method was linear in the concentration range over 0.037–1.0 µg/L and the detection limit of the method for Ru (III) was 0.011 µg/L. The method was applied to the determination of Ru (III) in some ores and metallurgy products. The results are in good agreement with the recommend values with the relative standard deviation of 2.6 %–3.8 % and the recovery of 97.2 %–104.3 %.

By means of cyclic voltammetry as a diagnostic technique, the present study tried to describe the behaviour of dopamine (DP) at the bare and catechol electrografted glassy carbon electrode (CA/GCE). The results indicated that the CA/GCE exhibits high electrocatalytic activity toward DP. The DP cycling of the CA/GCE in DP showed two linear calibration ranges between 5.0?100 and 100?750 ?M with a detection limit of 0.86 ?M. For 6 DP replicate measurements (50 ?M); the relative standard deviation (RSD) was 2.7 %. This method was successfully used for the determination of DP in serum samples.
