Sputtering changes the analytical performance of the hollow cathode as an emission source. Proper conditioning (aging) of the hollow with sputtering greatly improves precision. Conditioning decreases the blank emission signal and changes the shape of the hollow. Micrographs which show the evolution of the bottom of the hollow into a stable bulb shape are presented. The blank emission signal decreases with aging of the hollow and approaches a constant value when the hollow is properly conditioned. A short-term stability (n = 5) of approximately 1.8% RSD has been observed frequently. An average long-term stability over several days (n = 45) of 4.5% for Li and 3.5% for Na in the emission signal from microsamples (less than 50 nL) deposited in the hollow cathode discharge source is reported here. Instrumentation, operation, and sample preparation procedures are described.
A very promising glutamate decarboxylase electrode, which has linear response range of 5.6 x 10(-5)-1.2 x 10(-2) mol/L. Nernstian slope of 50 mV/decade, detection limit of 3.2 x 10(-5) mol/L and response time less than 3 min, has been designed to observe and evaluate quantitatively the effect of magnetized water on enzyme activities by potentiometric enzyme electrode method. It was found that the activity of glutamate decarboxylase can increase by 30% in magnetized water. The mechanism of increased enzyme activity was discussed in the present paper. Such a new finding will probably lead to some new explanations for the physiological and biological mechanism of the effect of magnetized water on living organisms, thus providing a new approach to the study of the effect of magnetized water.
Mitoxantrone was determined by flow injection analysis using a flow cell modified in the laboratory and fitted with carbon paste as an amperometric detector. The sample solution (100 microliters, 5 x 10(-8)-1 x 10(-5) M) was injected into the carrier stream of 0.1 M perchloric acid (pH 1.12). Mitoxantrone was determined by oxidation at the carbon paste electrode (CPE) at +0.90 V. A 60-cm delay coil (0.5 mm i.d.) was incorporated just before the detector (a canal thin layer) and a flow rate of about 4 ml min-1 was used. The system was successfully applied to the determination of mitoxantrone in a pharmaceutical preparation; the method was fast and reproducible.
