Kinetic determinations and some kinetic aspects of analytical chemistry

“…All measurements are made at 25 ± 0.1 °C, by photometric monitoring at 578 nm. Linear extrapolation of absorbance vs. time plots and slopes of the linear portions of the plots are used in (1) simultaneous determination of cyanide and thiocyanate (pH 9.1) and ( 2) differential determination of cyanide and thiocyanate (pH 4.7 and 6.9).…”

Flow injection and liquid chromatography detector for amino acids based on a post-column reaction with luminol

“…Fluorescence methods which utilize the Shpol'skii effect are particularly attractive because of the high-resolution fluorescence spectra that result from preparing many aromatic hydrocarbons in low-temperature Shpol'skii (i.e., re-alkane) frozen solutions (4). The fluorescence peaks are sharp enough to distinguish individual AHDs, such as methyl derivatives of phenanthrene, chrysene, pyrene, benz[o]anthracene, benzo[a]pyrene, and benzo[h]quinoline (5)(6)(7)(8). Moreover, the high selectivity of laser excited Shpol'skii spectrometry (LESS) minimizes the need for fractionation of complex samples and retains the high sensitivity associated with fluorescence detection (4, 7-9).…”

New horizons in sequential injection kinetic analysis

“…The contribution of Mottola's group [28,29,30,31,32,33,34,35] is, however, among the pillars in this regard, not only because of numerous contributions on his well-known closed-loop configurations [28,29,34] in FIA, but also contributions on chemical kinetics to practical dispersion in FIA [30,32]. The kinetic treatment of a variety of FIA systems was evaluated and described by Pardue's group [36,37,38,39,40,41,42] in a series of well-defined and theoretically well-treated contributions.…”
