Analysis simultaneous determination

Speciation Analysis Simultaneous Determination of Multiple Species of the Same Element At the beginning of the development of species-specific isotope dilution, only a single spike compound was used [77]. Later, species-spedfic IGP-IDMS has also been used for the determination of more than one spedes of the same element, using different spike spedes labeled with the same isotope. Examples include the determination of mono- and dimethylmercury (MMM and DMM) and of the three butyltin compounds TBT, DBT, and MBT [80-83]. Various spike isotopes, usually of medium natural abundance, such as Hg or ° Hg and Sn, Sn, or Sn, have been applied. The reason for selecting this type of spike...

The procedure of simultaneous extracting-spectrophotometric determination of nitrophenols in wastewater is proposed on the example of the analysis of mixtures of mono-, di-, and trinitrophenols. The procedure consists of extraction concentrating in an acid medium, and sequential back-extractions under various pH. Such procedures give possibility for isolation o-, m-, p-nitrophenols, a-, P-, y-dinitrophenols and trinitrophenol in separate groups. Simultaneous determination is carried out by summary light-absorption of nitrophenol-ions. The error of determination concentrations on maximum contaminant level in natural waters doesn t exceed 10%. The peculiarities of application of the sequential extractions under fixed pH were studied on the example of mixture of simplest phenols (phenol, o-, m-, />-cresols). The procedure of their determination is based on the extraction to carbon tetrachloride, subsequent back-extraction and spectrophotometric measurement of interaction products with diazo-p-nitroaniline. 

Significant practical objective in analytical chemistry is control on contents of metal ions in various objects including natural. Effective method for practical uses is one of simultaneous determination of content of various metals in object, because it decreases time of analysis, quantity of reagents and probe. 

Since the 1950s XRF has been used extensively for the analysis of solids, powders, and liquids. The technique was extended to analyze thin-film materials in the 1970s. XRF can be used routinely for the simultaneous determination of elemental composition and thickness of thin films. The technique is nondesuuctive, rapid, precise, and potentially very accurate. The results are in good agreement with other elemental analysis techniques including wet chemical, electron-beam excitation techniques, etc. 

The principle application of XRF thin-film analysis is in the simultaneous determination of composition and thickness. The technique has been used for the routine analysis of single-layer films since 1977 and multiple-layer films since 1986. Two main sources of publications in the fields are the annual volumes of Advances in X-Ray Analysis by Plenum Press, New York, and the Journal of X-Ray Spectrometry by Heyden and Sons, London. Typical examples on the analysis of single-layer films and multiple-layer films are used to illustrate the capabilities of the technique.

The shift of the half-wave potentials of metal ions by complexation is of value in polarographic analysis to eliminate the interfering effect of one metal upon another, and to promote sufficient separation of the waves of metals in mixtures to make possible their simultaneous determination. Thus, in the analysis of copper-base alloys for nickel, lead, etc., the reduction wave of copper(II) ions in most supporting electrolytes precedes that of the other metals and swamps those of the other metals present by using a cyanide supporting electrolyte, the copper is converted into the difficultly reducible cyanocuprate(I) ion and, in such a medium, nickel, lead, etc., can be determined. 

Qu et al. (2000) carried out experiments on heat transfer for water flow at 100 < Re < 1,450 in trapezoidal silicon micro-channels, with the hydraulic diameter ranging from 62.3 to 168.9pm. The dimensions are presented in Table 4.5. A numerical analysis was also carried out by solving a conjugate heat transfer problem involving simultaneous determination of the temperature field in both the solid and fluid regions. It was found that the experimentally determined Nusselt number in micro-channels is lower than that predicted by numerical analysis. A roughness-viscosity model was applied to interpret the experimental results. 

The set of possible dependent properties and independent predictor variables, i.e. the number of possible applications of predictive modelling, is virtually boundless. A major application is in analytical chemistry, specifically the development and application of quantitative predictive calibration models, e.g. for the simultaneous determination of the concentrations of various analytes in a multi-component mixture where one may choose from a large arsenal of spectroscopic methods (e.g. UV, IR, NIR, XRF, NMR). The emerging field of process analysis,... 

The method using GC/MS with selected ion monitoring (SIM) in the electron ionization (El) mode can determine concentrations of alachlor, acetochlor, and metolachlor and other major corn herbicides in raw and finished surface water and groundwater samples. This GC/MS method eliminates interferences and provides similar sensitivity and superior specificity compared with conventional methods such as GC/ECD or GC/NPD, eliminating the need for a confirmatory method by collection of data on numerous ions simultaneously. If there are interferences with the quantitation ion, a confirmation ion is substituted for quantitation purposes. Deuterated analogs of each analyte may be used as internal standards, which compensate for matrix effects and allow for the correction of losses that occur during the analytical procedure. A known amount of the deuterium-labeled compound, which is an ideal internal standard because its chemical and physical properties are essentially identical with those of the unlabeled compound, is carried through the analytical procedure. SPE is required to concentrate the water samples before analysis to determine concentrations reliably at or below 0.05 qg (ppb) and to recover/extract the various analytes from the water samples into a suitable solvent for GC analysis.

Simultaneous determination of both cations and anions in acid rain has been achieved using a portable conductimetric ion-exclusion cation-exchange chromatographic analyzer.14 This system utilized the poly(meth-ylmethacrylate)-based weak acid cation exchange resin TSK-Gel OA-PAK-A, (Tosoh , Tokyo, Japan) with an eluent of tartaric acid-methanol-water. All of the desired species, 3 anions and 5 cations, were separated in less than 30 minutes detection limits were on the order of 10 ppb. Simultaneous determination of nitrate, phosphate, and ammonium ions in wastewater has been reported utilizing isocratic IEC followed by sequential flow injection analysis.9 The ammonium cations were detected by colorimetry, while the anions were measured by conductivity. These determinations could be done with a single injection and the run time was under 9 minutes. 

It has proved to be very useful, providing both qualitative and quantitative information derived from mathematical processing of UV/VIS spectra. The principles of derivative spectrophotometry were discussed [15,16]. Obviously, derivatisation of spectra does not provide any additional information to that acquired during the measurement, but allows for easier interpretation. In particular, the possibility of resolving overlapping peaks makes derivative spectrophotometry a valuable tool for multicomponent analysis. Typically, derivative spectrophotometry is useful for the simultaneous determination of two additives in polymeric materials with very closely positioned absorption maxima. In quantitative analysis, derivative spectrophotometry leads to an increase in selectivity. 

SEC-GC-FID, according to Figure 7.40, has been used to carry out the simultaneous determination of the polymer average molecular masses and molar mass distribution and the concentration of additives [984].

Simultaneous spectrometers consist of various combinations of analyser crystals and detectors, arranged around the sample at fixed angle settings. Use of a multichannel X-ray spectrometer with simultaneous determination of up to 24 elements can considerably increase the analysis speed (a few seconds to a few minutes). 

Occasionally there is the need for simultaneous determination of MW, MWD of polymers and identifica-tion/quantilication of additives [38]. This was the case for polymer and additive analysis of SBR/(softeners, flavour agents, stabilisers) (chewing gum) [41]. The many constituents of the SBR portion of the sample were not resolved, since adjacent components were similar in size. It should be stressed, however, that the need for simultaneous determination of the molecular weight of polymers and the identification/quantification of additives is exceptional rather than the rule. The determination of molecular weight distributions by SEC has indicated that oligomer fractions analysed by dissolution and (Soxhlet) extraction methods may differ essentially [42],...

The analysis of environmental TPs has become a major trend in environmental chemistry, and increasingly, researchers are taking this a step further in proposing complex transformation pathways. It is expected to see a gradual shift from parent compound analysis to the analysis of metabolites and TPs. It is evident that more research is needed to determine the breakdown pathways and to evaluate the fate of TPs. Therefore, development of future generic analytical protocols should permit the simultaneous determination of parent compounds and their metabolites. 

Parkhurst et al. [79] described a high performance liquid chromatographic method for the simultaneous determination of primaquine and its metabolites from plasma and urine samples, utilizing acetonitrile deproteinization, and direct injection onto a cyano column. Levels of 100 ng/mL per 20 pL injection could be quantitated. Preliminary pharmacokinetic analysis is reported for two human subjects after oral doses of 60 90 mg primaquine diphosphate. Two apparent plasma metabolites and two possible urinary metabolites are also reported.
