Abstract A simple chemical technique was developed to confirm the presence of diethylstilbestrol (DES) residues in beef tissues at 2 ppb. The DES-trifluoroacetate (TFA) from the previously published method is hydrolyzed in water-methanol at 55°C for 20 min to free DES which is then extracted into benzene. Trimethylamine and a small amount of heptafluorobutyric (HFB) anhydride are added to effect the smooth conversion of DES to its di-HFB at either room temperature or 60°C. DES-HFB is determined by gas-liquid chromatography with electron capture detection on a 6′ × 4 mm id column of 3% OV-210 at 190°C. This procedure yields 2 peaks for DES-HFB (retention times 2.7 and 4.8 min for the cis and trans, respectively) which are resolved from the 2 DES-TFA peaks (retention times 2.3 and 3.3 min for cis and trans, respectively). The sensitivity of detection of DES-HFB is increased by a factor of 4–5 over that for DES-TFA. This chemical technique was successfully applied to purified extracts of beef liver fortified with DES at 2–10 ppb with recoveries from 60 to 110%.

Data from the chemical and dissection analyses of thirty-nine New Zealand Romney Marsh ewe carcasses are presented and compared. One side of each carcass was dissected into muscle, fat, and bone and the other side was totally ground and chemically analysed for water, fat, protein, and ash. There were strong statistical relationships between the two methods of carcass analysis and accordingly the quicker and more simple chemical technique could replace dissection in many carcass studies.

In this work, the hybrids based on nanocrystalline SnO2 or In2O3 semiconductor matrixes and heterocyclic Ru(II) complex are studied as materials for gas sensors operating at room temperature under photoactivation with visible light. Nanocrystalline semiconductor oxides are obtained by chemical precipitation with subsequent thermal annealing and characterized by XRD, SEM and single-point BET methods. The heterocyclic Ru(II) complex is synthesized for the first time and investigated by 1H NMR, 13C NMR APT, MALDI-MS analysis, and UV-Vis spectroscopy. The HOMO and LUMO energies of the Ru(II) complex are calculated from cyclic voltammetry data. The hybrid materials are characterized by TGA-MS analysis and EDX mapping. The optical properties of hybrids are studied by UV-Vis spectroscopy in the diffuse reflection mode. The investigation of spectral dependencies of photoconductivity of hybrid samples demonstrates that the role of organic dye consists in shifting the photosensitivity range towards longer wavelengths. Sensor measurements demonstrate that hybrid materials are able to detect NO2 in the concentration range of 0.25–2 ppm without the use of thermal heating under periodic illumination with even low-energy long-wavelength (red) light.

Uniform sized Ni–Co alloy nanoparticles were effectively confined over the active channels of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) using a simple chemical reduction method, and the resultant nanostructures exhibited a spherical configuration with a mean diameter of 5 nm.
