Abstract A gas-solid chromatographic method is described for the separation and determination of 5 medicinal gases at ambient temperature, using 2 gas chromatographic columns, Porapak Q and Molecular Sieve 13X, operated in series with a 6-port thermal conductivity detector and I recorder. An electronic digital integrator is used for calculating peak areas. Data on retention time, linearity, reproducibility of injection, and comparison with absorption methods are presented. Analytical results for oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, ethylene, and nitrous oxide are attainable within 1.0% without the use of an internal standard.

A series of reactions reported previously for the degradation of glucose has been modified and extended to permit the determination of carbon-14 in each of the five carbons of a single 2 mM. xylose sample. Methyl xylopyranoside was oxidized with periodic acid giving C-3 as formic acid, and a dialdehyde which was converted to strontium methoxy-diglycolate. The purified salt was hydrolyzed to glyoxylic and glycolic acids. The glyoxylic acid was isolated as the 2, 4-dinitrophenylhydrazone (C-1 + C-2) which was decarboxylated to give carbon dioxide from C-2. The glycolic acid was oxidized by lead tetraacetate to give C-4 as carbon dioxide and C-5 as formaldehyde. The activity in C-1 was determined by difference. The method was applied to xylose-1-C14, xylose-5-C14, and a biologically synthesized xylose sample with satisfactory results. This degradation procedure is theoretically applicable to other aldopentoses and aldotetroses.

Abstract An improved method for determining zinc phosphide has been developed that employs liberation of phosphine by refluxing with hydrochloric acid with subsequent determination by the alkalimetric quimociac phosphorus method. Zinc phosphide was found to he relatively stable when used on apple and potato baits for rodent control, with over 70% of the activity remaining after 99-day exposure under simulated baiting conditions. Decomposition occurs more rapidly in the juices of the moist surface of freshly prepared bait than on the dried baits. Decomposition is slow in a carbon dioxide atmosphere and is accelerated by moisture.
