Complete speciation schemes are discussed, starting with the sources of error and problem solutions for sampling and ending with more dimensional, orthogonally chosen coupled-speciation techniques for quality controlled results. The focus in each section is directed to the specific problems being faced with respect to speciation analysis: species stability during sample storage and processing, the choice of the most suitable speciation approaches (direct methods or hyphenated techniques), species separation techniques ranging from ultrafiltration to various forms of liquid chromatography, and capillary electrophoresis, discussing their advantageous as well as their (undesired) potential of changing species. Further, problems in interfacing to element-specific detectors, mainly plasma-based detectors like ICP OES and ICP MS are reported. The chapter concludes with aspects of quality control, including sources of errors and strategies to overcome such problems, such as orthogonal speciation concepts.

Book Modern Advancements in Elemental Speciation

Download or read book Modern Advancements in Elemental Speciation written by Douglas Dennis Richardson and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elemental speciation is the investigation of the chemical form of metal and non- metal containing species in environmental and biological systems for the determination of species specific essentiality and toxicity. Speciation analysis is performed by combining modern separation techniques with state-of-the-art element specific mass spectrometry. Separation techniques used in this work include: capillary electrophoresis (CE), high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC). Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICPMS) is the instrument of choice for ultra-trace elemental speciation analyses due to the excellent sensitivity and selectivity specific to this mass spectrometer. Modern innovations in analytical instrumentation specific for elemental speciation have provided researchers with resources for the development of new hyphenated techniques and analytical methods. The specific goal of this dissertation is to describe modern advancements specific to elemental speciation. In the first section a novel interface coupling CE and hydride generation with ICPMS detection for arsenic speciation is described. The novel concentric tube interface design allowed for the separation, hydride generation, and detection of four arsenic species in less than 10 minutes. The majority of this dissertation focuses on method development for the analysis of organophosphorus chemical warfare agent (CWA) degradation products. Recent increases in worldwide terrorist activity as well as the threat of chemical weapon attacks have led to the demand for rapid and reliable analytical techniques for CWA analysis. Methods utilizing both HPLC and GC separation techniques couple with 31P element specific detection with ICPMS for the analysis of organophosphorus chemical warfare agent degradation products are described. These works are the first to utilize 31P detection with ICPMS for the analysis of chemical warfare agent degradation products.

  • ISBN : 4431564632
  • Pages : 360 pages

Download or read book Metallomics written by Yasumitsu Ogra and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-01 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on recent topics in metallomics, a study of the metallome, or metal-containing biomolecules. Metals can induce various physiological and toxicological effects in a very small amounts, in other words, the concentrations of biometals are very low in organisms. Thus, analytical techniques for a trace amount of metal are crucial to understand the biological and toxicological functions of metals.This volume begins with an overview of metallomics including the history and development of the field. Subsequent parts provide basic and advanced techniques for metallomics. Speciation and imaging of metals are basic approaches to reveal the function of the metallome. The applications of speciation using an HPLC hyphenated with inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LC-ICP-MS) and flow cytometry ICP-MS are described. As advanced approaches, the applications using a micro-flow injection-ICP-MS, an ICP-triple quadrupole mass spectrometer, an ICP-sector field mass spectrometer, and an ICP-multi-collector mass spectrometer are mentioned. For the imaging of metals, basic principles and applications of several techniques such as scanning X-ray fluorescence microscopy and ICP-MS equipped with laser ablation (LA-ICP-MS) are presented. Speciation analyses using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS), and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR) are also introduced. The last part highlights the medical and pharmaceutical applications of metallomics. Molecular biological approaches to reveal the effects of toxic metals, metal functions in brain and neurodegenerative diseases, and metallodrugs are explained. The topic of metal transporters is also presented.

Book Analytical Methods in the Determination of Bioactive Compounds and Elements in Food

Download or read book Analytical Methods in the Determination of Bioactive Compounds and Elements in Food written by Magdalena Jeszka-Skowron and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most bioactive compounds have antioxidant activity, particularly tocochromanols, phenolics (flavonoids and phenolic acids), methylxantines and capsaicinoids. Some of these compounds have also other properties important for human health. For example, vitamin E protects against oxidative stress, but it is also known for its “non-antioxidant” functions, including cell signalling and antiproliferation. Selenium compounds and indoleamins are the components of the antioxidant enzymes. Selenium makes vitamin E acquisition easier and controls its physiological functions. In taking part in enzymatic reactions and protecting the cell against free radicals, selenium shows immunomodulative, antiphlogistic, and antiviral activity. Capsaicinoids possess not only antioxidant, but also antibacterial, analgesic, weight-reducing and thermoregulation properties. Studies have also demonstrated their gastroprotective and anticancer properties. Analytical Methods in the Determination of Bioactive Compounds and Elements in Food explores both the influence of particular compounds on human health and the methods used for their determination. Chapters describe various aspects of food and plant analysis, including chromatographic and non‐chromatographic approaches as well as hyphenated techniques. Readers of this book will gain a comprehensive understanding of the important groups of bioactive compounds relevant to human health.

Book Chemical Speciation of Organic and Inorganic components of Environmental and Biological Interest in Natural Fluids

Download or read book Chemical Speciation of Organic and Inorganic components of Environmental and Biological Interest in Natural Fluids written by Francesco Crea and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-03-25 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) defines the term “speciation” as the distribution of an element amongst defined chemical species in a system, while the process leading to quantitative estimation of the content of different species is called speciation analysis. The chemical speciation of elements in natural waters and biological fluids is a key topic, essential for discussing the chemical reactivity of constituents in these systems. It is well understood that it is the chemical form of a metal or metalloids that determines its reactivity, lifetime, and fate in the environment. Chemical speciation now involves various sectors of the sciences, from chemistry to biology, biochemistry, and environmental sciences, since—as is well known—the total concentration, alone, of an inorganic or organic component (metal or ligand) in a multicomponent natural system (fresh water, sea water, biological fluids, soil, etc.) is insufficient for a comprehensive understand of its behavior in those contests.
