Rapid Fluorometric Determination of Trace Indium(III) in Microemulsion Medium after Preconcentration and Separation by Sulphydryl Dextrane Gel

Abstract

A new highly sensitive, stable, and accurate fluorometric method for the determination of indium(III) has been established in cetyltrimethylammonium bromide(CTMAB) microemulsion media. The excellent color-forming reagent 2,6,7-trihydroxy-9-(3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxyphenyl) fluorone (DBH-PF) reacts with indium(III) to form a purple complex with a 3 : 1 (ligand to metal) ratio in HAc-NaAc buffer solution at pH 4.94. The emission peak occurs at 556 nm with excitation at 525 nm. Indium(III) can be determined in the linear range of 0.005-0.30 µ g mL -1 with a detection limit of 0.0029 µ g mL -1 . Foreign ions are eliminated by preconcentration and separation with sulfhydryl dextranegel (SDG). The proposed method has been satisfactorily examined for the determination of indium(III) in ore and sludge samples. The relative standard deviations are in all instances less than 3.0%, and the recoveries are between 94.7, and 99.5%. Br OHBr

Study on the Interaction Mechanism of 2‐Aminoanthraquinone with Calf Thymus DNA

“…However, when the concentration of NaCl was higher than 0.1 mol L −1 , the Δ I F increased significantly until the concentration of NaCl reached to 0.15 mol L −1 . It indicated that the fluorescence intensity increased within a certain range caused by the gradually weakening of the interaction between 2‐AAQ and ctDNA, which can further verify that there is electrostatic bonding between 2‐AAQ and ctDNA . Nevertheless, when the ionic intensity continues to increase, the fluorescence intensity decreased.…”
