In pH 5.0-5.4 HAc-NaAc buffer solution, lincomycin (Linco) reacted with Pd(II) to form 1:1 cationic chelate, which could further react with erythrosine (Ery) to form 1:1 ion-association complexes (Pd-Linco)Ery. As a result, not only were the absorption and fluorescence spectra changed, but also the resonance Rayleigh scattering (RRS) intensity was greatly enhanced. These phenomena offered useful means for the determination of Linco by spectrophotometry, fluorescence and RRS methods. The linear range and detection limit of Linco were 0.20-3.00 mg/mL and 0.057 mg/mL, 0.20-4.80 mg/mL and 0.061 mg/mL, 0.05-2.70 mg/mL and 0.015 mg/mL for the spectrophotometric, fluorescence quenching and RRS methods, respectively. Among these, the RRS method obtained the highest sensitivity. Therefore, the optimum reaction conditions and the influences of coexisting substances were investigated using the RRS method. A simple, sensitive and rapid method has been developed for the determination of Linco in either the pharmaceutical form or human body fluids, and the reasons for RRS enhancement are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
