A simple and sensitive method is described for the pre-concentration by cloud point extraction followed by atomic absorption spectrometric determination of copper ion in real samples. At a solution pH of 5.5, 5, 5-diphenylimidazolidine-2, 4-dione (phenytoin) (DFID) and TritonX-114 were used as hydrophobic ligand and non-ionic surfactant. The adopted concentrations for DFID, Triton X-114 and HNO...

     A convenient liquid chromatographic-single Quadrupole mass spectrometric (LC-MS) method was developed and validated for dexchlorpheniramine maleate (INN name: chlorphenamine) determination in human plasma. The need for just a single liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate and being highly sensitive were the advantages of this method. The linearity was also excellent over the range of 1...

With the recent development of techniques for analyzing transmembrane thylakoid proteins by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis, systematic approaches for proteomic analyses of membrane proteins became feasible. In this study, we established detailed two-dimensional protein maps of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii light-harvesting proteins (Lhca and Lhcb) by extensive tandem mass spectrometric analysi...

Mass spectrometric imaging allows the investigation of the spatial distribution of molecules at complex surfaces. The combination of molecular speciation with local analysis renders a chemical microscope that can be used for the direct biomolecular characterization of histological tissue surfaces. MS based imaging advantageously allows label-free detection and mapping of a wide-range of biologi...

The hyphenation of high performance chromatography with modern mass spectrometric techniques providing high-resolution data as well as structural information from MS/MS experiments has become a versatile tool for rapid natural product identification and characterization. A recent application of this methodology concerned the investigation of the annually occurring degradation of green plant pig...

Conventionally used spectrometric techniques of inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) and (ICP-MS) usually involve time-consuming sample preparation procedure a dissolution which requires the usage aggressive toxic chemicals. The need for suitable sustainable analytical methods direct multi-elemental analysis plant samples has been increased in recent years. Spectro...
