Constituents in essential oils of Angelica sinensis root were identified by GC-MS with the help of subwindow factor analysis (SFA) method resolving two-dimensional original data into mass spectra and chromatograms. 76 of 97 separated constituents in essential oil of Angelica sinensis root were identified and quantified, and they account for about 91.36% of the total content. The results show that ligustilide, butylene phthalide, 2-methoxy-4-vinylphenol, carvacrol, allo-ocimene,2,6,6-trimethylbicyclo-[3,1,1]hept-2-ene are the main constituents in essential oil of Angelica sinensis root.展开更多

Methanol and dichloromethane (DCM)/methanol (2:1, v/v) were used in ultrasonic extraction, and DCM was used as eluate for column chromatography. The developing system consisted of n-hexane and DCM at a ratio of 9:1 (v/v), with DCM as the extraction solvent for PAHs-containing silica gel scraped off the plate. When the spiking level is 100 ng, total recoveries of spiked matrices for four target PAHs (phenanthrene, anthracene, pyrene and chrysene) were 83.7%, 76.4%, 85.8%, and 88.7%, respectively, with relative standard deviation (RSD) between 5.0% and 6.5% (n = 4). When the spiking level is 1000 ng, associated total recoveries were 78.6%, 72.7%, 82.7% and 85.3%, respectively, with RSD between 4.4% and 5.3% (n = 4). The opti-mized method was advantageous for determination of PAHs in complex matrix due to its effective sample purification.展开更多

For this reason, research efforts focused on this area have been responsible for optimizing the process of biodiesel production by different catalytic routes to achieve greater efficiency at a lower cost. In this case, the biggest problem has been the high cost generated by an investigation, which in many occasions is the main factor to decide if an investigation could be carried out. Trying to reduce these costs, in the current study, we are using a technique of glycerol quantification by volumetric methods and comparing obtained results with the chromatographic method, which is conventionally used and comparatively much more expensive. Biodiesel employee was obtained by an enzymatic catalysis process varying one of three process variables:oil:alcohol molar ratio, temperature and proportion of catalyst. The numerical differences obtained between the two quantification methods generated relative errors lower than 10%, resulting in some occasions lower than 1%. By gas chromatography analysis the best yield was obtained at the same conditions of the volumetric method, a temperature of 45 ℃, an oil:alcohol ratio 1:4 and 8 wt.% of catalyst, but a yield of 95.5% and 97.1%, respectively. Due to the high precision of gas chromatography, this method is used to carry out a surface response analysis obtaining as ideal operating conditions a temperature of 43.5 ℃, 8.9 wt.%. of catalyst and an oil:alcohol ratio 1:4.展开更多

Lead was determined in the medium of citric acid using potassium ferricyanide (K3Fe(CN)6) as oxidant. Ni enhanced the fluorescence signals in this system. Mercury was determined in the medium of nitric acid using mixture of thiourea and ascorbic acid as masking reagent, sodium dioctylsulphosuccinate (SDSS) as enhancing reagent. The working mechanism of the hydride generation of lead and mercury was discussed. Interferences of some coexisting ions were studied systematically and the determination conditions were optimized. Under the optimized conditions, the detection limits of the method were 0.31μg.L^-1 for lead and 0.023 μg·L^-1 for mercury, and the relative standard deviations based on eleven determinations of 5.00 μg·L^-1 standard of Pb and Hg, were 2.6% for Pb and 2.2 % for Hg. This method was applied to the analysis of lead and mercury in four different diameter airborne particles after microwave digestion. Results suggested heavy metal elements easily concentrated in smaller particles.展开更多

The disinfection by products are trihalomethanes such as chloroform, dichloromethane, dibromochloromethane and bromoform. A headspace solid-phase microextraction method has been developed for determination oftrihalomethanes in water samples. The experimental parameters such as the stirring rate, extraction time, extraction temperature and desorption time were investigated. The linearity, detection limits and percentage recovery were evaluated. The optimum conditions were stirring rate 800 rpm/min, extraction time 6 min, extraction temperature 20 ~C, desorption time 2.5 min and desorption temperature 220 ~C. The detection limits were 0.01 ~g/L and the recoveries were in the range of 86-110 %, The proposed method was successfully applied to determination of THM4 in tap water samples. The THM4 contents were varied depending on the sample sites and the season. The total THM4 contents in cool, summer and rainy season were in the range of 27.58-41.89, 32.06-60.73 and 46.26-69.87 p.g/L, respectively. Confirmation of the detected compounds in water samples were performed by gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer. The mass spectra of the target compounds in water samples is in good agreement with trihalomethanes standard spectra.展开更多
