Energy dispersive spectrophotometry based quantitativeelemental estimation of equine enterolith

Geochemical Study of an Equine Enterolith, Medina County, Ohio

An intestinal concretion (enterolith) was recovered during necropsy of a horse from Medina County, Ohio. The object is approximately spherical in shape and measures 9 X 8 X 7 cm in diameter. It is composed of struvite (NH4MgPO4 • 6H2O). The monohydrate dittmarite was not found. In addition to Mg and P, significant concentrations (^500 ppm) of Ca, K, and Fe and lesser amounts (^500 ppm) of Na, M...

Determination of Iron Species by Combination of Solvent Assisted-Dispersive Solid Phase Extraction and Spectrophotometry

A simple, rapid and sensitive solvent assisted-dispersive solid phase extraction method was developed for the extraction of iron(II) prior to its spectrophotometric determination. The Fe(II) reacted with 2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine, neutralized with sodium dodecyl sulfate and extracted onto the fine particles of benzophenone which were formed upon rapid injection of a mixture of benzop...

Trace Analysis of Niflumic Acid in Milk and Human Plasma by Ion-pair-based Vortex Assisted Dispersive Liquid-liquid Microextraction Combined with UV-Vis Spectrophotometry

A simple, accurate and fast vortex-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction procedure has been developed for the extractive spectrophotometric determination of niflumic acid in biological samples. The method is based on the formation of an ion association complex between niflumic acid and methylene blue. The resulting ion-pair was extracted into dichloromethane and its absorbance was m...

Simultaneous Estimation of Metformin and Pioglitazone by Ultraviolet Spectrophotometry

This work deals with the simultaneous estimation of metformin hydrochloride and pioglitazone hydrochloride in a bilayered tablet dosage form, without prior separation by two techniques. The methods employed are derivative spectrophotometery and Q analysis. The absorption maxima at 231 nm and 269 nm were used for the estimation of metformin and pioglitazone, respectively. Both the drugs and thei...
