Solid paraffin briquettes are one of the most modern types of rodenticide baits, because they protect it from the environmental exposure and do not reduce palatability of rodents. This paper proposes a simple universal method for the determination of brodifacoum, bromadiolone and difenacoum in solid briquettes, which are a mixture of paraffin, poison and filler, which can be used as grain, flour and the like. The difficulty in the analysis of baits containing paraffin, is to get rid of it. For this, we propose to use hexane-acetonitrile extraction in the system. Paraffin dissolves in hexane, while brodifacoum, bromadiolone and difenacoum do not. The resulting two-phase system was separated using a separatory funnel and the bottom fraction was collected. If any fillers were present in the sample, they were filtered until the mixture was separated, the residue was washed with acetonitrile. Before introducing the sample into the chromatograph, it was filtered twice with PTFE filters with a porosity of 0.45 µm. The best separation was achieved using a Thermo Acclaim® Surfactant column using acetonitrile and 0.1 M aqueous ammonium acetate solution (pH 5.4) as the mobile phase in a gradient elution mode. All three poisons were detected at a wavelength of 264 nm. This method has a sensitivity of 0.028 mg. The linearity range is from 0.00067 to 0.01%. The recovery rate for bromadiolone is 94%, for brodifacoum, 98%, and for difenacoum, 90%.

The distribution kinetics of 35 2-furylethylene derivatives in two-phase system 1-octanol-water was investigated. The transport rate parameters in direction water-1-octanol (l1) and backwards (l2) are partition coefficient P = l1/l2 dependent according to equations l1 = logP - log(βP + 1) + const., l2 = -log(βP + 1) + const., const. = -5.600, β = 0.261. Importance of this finding for assesment of distribution of compounds under investigation in biosystems and also the suitability of the presented method for determination of partition coefficients are discussed.

A novel analytical method involving high-performance liquid chromatography with evaporative light scattering detection (HPLC-ELSD) was developed for simultaneous determination of 11 phenolic acids and 12 triterpenes in Sanguisorba officinalis L. Chromatographic separation was conducted with gradient elution mode by using a DiamonsilTM C18 column (250 mm × 4.6 mm, 5 μm) with the mobile phase of 0.1% acetic acid water (A) and methanol (B). The drift tube temperature of ELSD was set at 70 °C and the nitrogen cumulative flow rate was 1.6 L/min. The method was fully validated to be linear over a wide concentration range (R2 ≥ 0.9991). The precisions (RSD) were less than 3.0% and the recoveries were between 97.7% and 101.4% for all compounds. The results indicated that this method is accurate and effective for the determination of 23 functional components in Sanguisorba officinalis L. and could also be successfully applied to study the influence of processing method on those functional components in Sanguisorba officinalis L.

ABSTRACT In this study, a novel method using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry coupled with ethanol and K2HPO4 aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) was established for the quantitative determination of trace ethyl carbamate (EC) in red wine. The parameters that influence EC extraction in an aqueous two-phase system, including extraction temperature, time, pH, and ethanol concentration, were optimized. Method validation results indicated that the regression coefficient of the proposed method was 0.9979 in the linear range of 10 to 100 μg/L, and the limits of detection and quantification were 2.8 and 9.2 μg/L, respectively. Four red wine samples made from different grape varieties were processed by the proposed method for the repeatability verification, and EC concentrations were between 15.8 and 37.3 μg/L, with the relative standard deviations ranging from 3.5 to 6.6%. Results of the precision assay showed the average recovery of EC in red wine at 95.4 to 107.1%, with the relative standard deviations ranging from 1.4 to 6.2%. This method proved to be simple and reliable for quantitative determination of trace EC in red wine and would give guidance for quality monitoring of various red wines in the production process.

A novel, simple, and more sensitive spectrophotometric procedure has been developed for the determination of brilliant blue FCF in water and food samples by an aqueous two-phase system (ATPS). In this method, adequate amount of polyethylene glycol/ sodium carbonate (PEG-4000/Na2CO3) was added to aqueous solution for formation of a homogeneous solution. To the mixture solution, suitable amount ofNa2CO3was added, the mixture solution was shaken until the salt was dissolved, and then it was separated into two clear phases easily and rapidly. The target analyte in the water sample was extracted into the polyethylene glycol phase. After extraction, measuring the absorbance at 634 nm was done. The effects of different parameters such as polyethylene glycol (type and concentration), pH, salt (type and amount), centrifuge time, and temperature on the ATPS of dye was investigated and optimum conditions were established. Linear calibration curves were obtained in the range of 0.25–750 ng/mL for brilliant blue FCF under optimum conditions. Detection limit based on three times the standard deviation of the blank (3Sb) was 0.12 ng/mL. The relative standard deviation (RSD) for 400 ng/mL was 3.14%. The method was successfully applied to the determination of brilliant blue FCF in spiked samples with satisfactory results. The relative recovery was between 96.0 and 102.2%.
