Sediments from the Yarra River estuary were analysed for Cu, Pb, Zn, Mn, Fe and Ca extractable in hydroxylamine hydrochloride-acetic acid solution. Strong correlation of Pb and Zn with extractable Fe was observed. The behaviour of Cu indicated that it was not only controlled by the hydrated iron oxides, but that some may be organically bound. The effects of salinity on the suspended particulate matter were examined, and variations in the amount of extractable Fe in the particulate matter observed.

The aim of this study was to develop and validate a rapid, accurate, and exact method for the quantitative determination of famotidine in pharmaceutical products. The HPLC analyses were performed by using a mobile phase containing methanol:1% acetic acid solution=30:7 (v/v), at a flow rate of 0.4 mL/min.The total time of the method was 10 min, and the retention time of famotidine was 4.16 min. The detection was evaluated at l=267 nm. The method has been validated by using different validation parameters. The linear response of the detector for famotidine peak area was observed at concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 0.0001 mg mL-1 , resulting in a correlation coefficient of 0.99998. The values of the detection limit and of the quantification limit are 0.00048 mg mL-1 and 0.00148 mg mL-1, respectively. The method proposed allowed accurate (with a relative error of less than 2%) and precise (RSD values less than 2.0%) determination of famotidine content in pharmaceutical products and can be used for its rapid quantitative analysis.
