Carbonate removal from coastal sediments for the determination of organic carbon and its isotopic signatures, δ13C and Δ14C: comparison of fumigation and direct acidification by hydrochloric acid
Acidification of a solid sample to separate inorganic carbon (IC) from organic carbon (OC) is a widely encountered procedure in limnology and oceanography. Traditionally, OC was isolated to determine the weight-% of OC (%OC), but it is becoming increasingly common to determine the isotopic signatures of the OC (δCOC and Δ COC). This raises a need for a closer scrutiny of the currently used acid...
متن کاملWet Oxidation of Glycerol into Fine Organic Acids: Catalyst Selection and Kinetic Evaluation
The liquid phase oxidation of glycerol was performed producing fine organic acids. Catalysts based on Pt, Pd and Bi supported on activated carbon were employed to perform the conversion of glycerol into organic acids at 313 K, 323 K and 333 K, under atmospheric pressure (1.0 bar), in a mechanically agitated slurry reactor (MASR). The experimental results indicated glycerol conversions of 98% wi...
متن کاملAnalysis of Total Organic Carbon Samples Containing NaCl Using Two Oxidation Techniques
The concentration of organic and inorganic carbon in seawater is of considerable interest. Some Total Organic Carbon (TOC) analyzers have been designed for straightforward analysis of these waters, with special features to avoid many of the problems found with salty samples. The presence of the chloride ion (Cl) in waters being analyzed for carbon presents problems when the method uses low temp...
متن کاملCapillary electrophoresis analysis of organic amines and amino acids in saline and acidic samples using the Mars organic analyzer.
The Mars Organic Analyzer (MOA) has enabled the sensitive detection of amino acid and amine biomarkers in laboratory standards and in a variety of field sample tests. However, the MOA is challenged when samples are extremely acidic and saline or contain polyvalent cations. Here, we have optimized the MOA analysis, sample labeling, and sample dilution buffers to handle such challenging samples m...
متن کاملAn Innovative Method for Imaging and Chemical Analysis of Wet Samples in Scanning Electron Microscopes
Introduction Electron microscopy (EM) of fully wet samples is a valuable tool for studies in the material, medical and biological sciences. In order to appreciate the natural structures of tissues or materials they should be examined in their native wet state, as opposed to a dry form that incorporates artifacts of sample processing. Viewing and analyzing wet samples at high resolution has unde...
