Abstract A visual screening method specifying phenolphthalein monophosphate as the substrate was applied to cheese by analyzing the extract obtained with 7.5% butanol. In the extraction step, all of the alcohol was added at one time, and the mixture was filtered after mixing. Analysis of 10 samples of various types of cheese resulted in data identical to that obtained by the Scharer rapid method. Quantitative data obtained by dialysis of the butanol filtrate and spectrophotometric measurement of the phenolphthalein compared favorably (r = 0.96) with data obtained by the Scharer spectrophotometric method on 13 samples of cheese.

A very simple, sensitive and fairly selective direct spectrophotometric method is presented for the rapid determination of thallium(III) at trace level. The method is based on the oxidation of 2-hydrazono-3-methyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[d]thiazole hydrochloride (MBTH) by thallium(III) in phosphoric acid medium to form a diazoniumcation, which couples immediately with 10,11-dihydro-5Hdibenzo[b,f]azepine (IDB) at room temperature giving a blue colored species having a maximum absorption at 660 nm. The reaction conditions and other important analytical parameters were optimized.The calibration curve was found to be linear over the range of 0.1-4 μg/mL with molar absorptivity of 4.5 × 104 L mol- cm-1 and Sandell’s sensitivity of 0.00454 μg cm-2. The relative standard deviation and limit of detection have been found to be 0.58% and 0.0147 μg/mL respectively. Almost all common anions and cations are found notto interfering in matrix level of the analytical process. The method has been successfully applied for the determination of thallium(III) in synthetic standard mixtures, water and human urine samples. The performance of proposed method was evaluated in terms of student’s t-test and variance ratio F-test, to find out the significance of proposed method over the reported methods.

An improved UV spectrophotometric method for determination of nitrate in natural waters was proposed and the determination accuracy of the method was discussed in this study. As a result of estimation of the proposed method, adoption of 215 and 220 nm for detection of nitrate and interfering substances resulted in decreasing standard error to about a half of that of a conventional spectrophotometric method. One of the reasons was thought that the coefficient of variation of relative absorbance of interfering substances (rs) at 215 nm was smaller and more stable than that at 275 nm, which was used in the conventional method. The other reason inferred was that most of the interfering substances absorbed UV light at wavelengths of 215 and 220 nm. Although rs has to be renewed when targeted water quality is under extreme conditions, the procedure of the proposed method is very simple, namely only measuring two UV absorbances of a filtrated sample, and more accurate than the conventional spectrophotometric method. Consequently, the proposed method is available for rapid determination of nitrate in natural waters.
