The optical properties of bromocresol red, bromophenol blue and bromocresol green were studied spectrophotometrically in aqueous systems in the absence and in the presence of submicellar and micellar concentrations of cationic (Septonex, hexadecylpyridinium and hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromides), nonionic (Brij 35, Triton X-100) and anionic (sodium dodecylsulfate) tensides. The positions of the absorption maxima and molar absorptivities of the LH- and L2- acid-base species of the dyes depend on the kind and concentration of tenside, alkylpyridinium chain length, and kind and concentration of inert electrolyte.

Changes in the optical and acid-base characteristics of neutral red in the presence of hexadecylpyridinium bromide, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, α-carbethoxypentadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (Septonex), sodium dodecyl sulphate, Triton X-100, and BRIJ 35 in submicellar and micellar concentrations were studied spectrophotometrically. The conditional dissociation constant of neutral red pKai* depends on the kind and concentration of tenside, kind and concentration of inert electrolyte, and concentration of the cationic dye. Changes in the pKai* values are described in terms of formation of ionic associates of the dye with the tenside and of the inert electrolyte ions with the tenside. The validity of equations for the dependence of pKai* on the logarithm of tenside concentration was proved experimentally over a wide region of cationic tenside concentrations. The changes in pKai* can also be partly accounted for by changes in the nature of the solvent. A titrimetric method based on the changes in the conditional dissociation constant of neutral red is suggested for the determination of tensides in aqueous solutions using photometric end point indication.

The solubility of chlorophenols as affected by surfactant was investigated. Three kinds of surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate, Triton X-100, and Brij 35, were utilized. The solubilization of chlorophenols by surfactant follows the order of 2,4,6-trichlorophenol > 2,4-dichlorophenol > 2,6-dichlorophenol > 2-chlorophenol; and the critical micelle concentration is an important index. The adsorption reactions of 2,4-dichlorophenol and 2,4,6- trichlorophenol onto hydrous montmorillonite in the presence of surfactant were examined. The presence of surfactant decreased the adsorption of chlorophenols significantly. The roles of hydrophobicity of chlorophenols in solubilization and adsorption behaviors are discussed.

The composition, optical characteristics, molar absorption coefficients and equilibrium constants of the reactions of formation of the ML and ML2 complexes of both reagents with cadmium(II) ions were determined by graphical analysis and numerical interpretation of the absorbance-pH curves by the modified SQUAD-G program. Optimal conditions were proposed for the spectrophotometric determination of Cd in 10% v/v ethanol medium in the presence of 0.1% w/v Triton X-100 or 1% w/v Brij 35. BrPADAP and ClPADAP are the most sensitive spectrophotometric reagents for the determination of cadmium(II) ions (ε = 1.28-1.44 . 105 mmol-1 cm2 at 560 nm and pH 8.0-9.5) with a high colour contrast in the reaction (Δλmax ~117 nm) and a selectivity similar to that of other N-heterocyclic azodyes (PAR, PAN, etc.).

The optical and acid-base characteristics of BrPADAP and ClPADAP were studied in mixed water-ethanol and water-DMF media and in 10% ethanol medium in the presence of cationic, anionic and nonionic tensides. The composition, optical characteristics, molar absorption coefficients and equilibrium constants of the ML and ML2 complexes with zinc(II) ions were found by graphical analysis and numerical interpretation of the absorbance curves by the modified SQUAD-G program. Optimal conditions were found for the spectrophotometric determination of Zn(II) in the presence of 0.1% Triton X-100 or 1% Brij 35 in alkaline media with pH = 6.5-10. BrPADAP and ClPADAP are the most sensitive reagents (ε = 1.3-1.6 . 105 mmol-1 cm2 at 557 and 560 nm, respectively) for the determination of zinc with high colour contrast of the reaction (Δλ = 104 nm) and selectivity similar to that for the other N-heterocyclic azodyes (PAN, PAR, etc.).

The acid-base and optical properties of Chromazurol S and Eriochromazurol B in the presence of 1 . 10-6 - 2 . 10-2M solutions of cetylpyridinium bromide, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and 1-ethoxycarbonylpentadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (Septonex) and 0.001-1.0% w/v solutions of octylphenolpolyethylene glycol ether (Triton X-100), polyoxyethylenemonolauryl ether (Brij 35) and lauryl sulphate sodium salt were determined by graphical and numerical interpretation of absorbance curves. The poorly soluble ion associates, which can be extracted into chloroform and which have the defined composition [LH4-nn-.n T+] or [LH3-nn-.n T+] are formed at submicellar concentration of the tenside. In regions close to the critical micellar concentration of the tenside, soluble binary complexes of the acid-base forms of the reagent are formed with tenside micelles. The conditional stability constants of the reagent acid-base equilibrium depend on the type and concentration of the tenside, on the reagent concentration, on the concentration and type of inorganic acid anions and on the ionic strength of the solution. The mechanism of interaction of the reagent with the tenside and the probable structure of the binary species are discussed.

Two simple, sensitive and extraction-free spectrophotometric methods are described for the determination of dothiepin hydrochloride (DOTH) both in pure form and in pharmaceutical tablets. The methods are based on ion-pair complex formation between dothiepin base (DOT) and two acidic dyes, namely, bromophenol blue (BPB) or bromocresol green (BCG) with absorption maximum at 425 nm for BPB method or 430 nm for BCG method. Beer?s law is obeyed over the concentration ranges of 1.0-15.0 and 1.0-17.5 ?g mL-1 DOT for BPB and BCG methods, respectively. The molar absorptivity values and Sandell?s sensitivity values are reported for both methods. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) were calculated to be 0.18 and 0.53 ?g mL-1 for BPB method, and 0.17 and 0.50 ?g mL-1 for BCG method, respectively. The stoichiometry of the complex in either case was found to be 1: 1 and the conditional stability constant (KF) of the complexes has also been calculated. The proposed methods were applied successfully to the determination of DOTH in pure form and in its tablet form with good accuracy and precision. Statistical comparison of the results was performed using Student's t-test and variance ratio F-test at 95% confidence level and there was no significant difference between the official and proposed methods with regard to accuracy and precision. Further, the validity of the proposed methods was confirmed by recovery studies via standard addition technique.

The efficiency of several nonionic detergents and a homologous series of zwitterionic detergents for the extraction of acetylcholinesterase (EC 3.1.1.7) from bovine erythrocyte membranes was examined. Of the nonionic detergents examined, the polyoxyethylene-based Tweens were the least effective solubilizing agents. Within this series, increasing the length of the saturated fatty acid chain progressively decreased the efficiency of enzyme recovery, while unsaturation in the side chain reversed this trend. In the Lubrol detergents, where the chain length of the alcohol group is variable, an increase in the length of the polyoxyethylene glycol group decreased the recovery of acetylcholinesterase in the solubilized state, without affecting the efficiency of extraction of total erythrocyte protein. As with the other nonionic detergents examined, Triton X-100 and octy1 β-D-glucoside were maximally effective in solubilizing acetylcholinesterase activity at concentrations greater than their respective critical micelle concentrations. In the sulfobetaine (N-alkyldimethylaminopropane sulphonate) zwitterionic detergent series, the longer alkyl chain zwittergents Z 316 and Z 314 were more efficient than the shorter chain length members of the series (Z 310 and Z 312). In contrast to the higher chain length compounds, short chain analogs were maximally effective at or below their critical micelle concentrations. After purification by ion-exchange chromatography and affinity chromatography, the enzyme extracted with the various detergents gave sedimentation coefficients between 6.8S and 7.6S, consistent with a dimeric structure. Acetylcholinesterase could also be efficiently released by 0.2 mM EDTA or 0.5 M NaCl from bovine erythrocyte membranes previously depleted of 70–80% of the membrane lipids by butanol. Nonlinear Arrhenius plots of enzyme activity were found whether acetylcholinesterase was solubilized with Tween 20, Lubrol PX, or Triton X-100. The present work confirms that bovine erythrocyte acetylcholinesterase requires detergents to solubilize it from membranes and that its activity depends on the structure of the amphiphiles used to solubilize the enzyme.

AbstractA method for the rapid and sensitive determination of peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) in air based on a chemiluminescence reaction with an alkaline solution of luminol in the chemiluminescence aerosol detector is described. The PAN is chromatographically separated from nitrogen dioxide and ozone in a packed column filled with 5 % OV-1 on Chromosorb 30/60 and the eluted PAN is detected via the direct reaction with the luminol solution consisting of 0.002 mol L−1 luminol, 1 vol. % Brij-35 and 0.1 mol L−1 KOH. The limit of detection is 14.9 ng m−3 (3 ppt) of PAN. Alternatively, the PAN after separation is thermally converted to NO2 which is detected by the chemiluminescence reaction with a solution consisting of 0.002 mol L−1 luminol, 0.5 mol L−1 KOH, 0.2 mol L−1 Na2SO3, 0.1 mol L−1 KI, 0.05 mol L−1 EDTA and 0.5 vol. % triton X-100. The alternative approach affords the simultaneous determination of PAN and NO2. The limit of detection is 50 ppt of PAN and 50 ppt of NO2. The time resolution is 3 min. The method was applied to the measurement of ambient peroxyacetyl nitrate in air.
