Hepatic content of free sulfhydryl compounds in animals exposed to vinyl acetate.

The content of free non-protein thiols (-SH) was investigated in the livers of guinea pigs, rats and mice after intraperitoneal injection of vinyl acetate (VA). A rapid change of the hepatic -SH level was found in guinea pigs after injection of 500 mg/kg VA. This resulted in a 50% decrease in -SH content. In mice the decrease was slower and amounted to only 23% four hours after injection of 300 mg/kg VA. Rats responded to a single dose of 450 mg/kg VA with only a 10% reduction of the -SH content of the liver. An approximately 20% decrease was observed after chronic intermittent exposure (5 h d-1 for 6 months) to 10, 100 or 500 mg/m3 VA.

Molecularly imprinted polymers for selective analysis of chemical warfare surrogate and nuclear signature compounds in complex matrices.

This paper describes the preparation and evaluation of molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) that display specificity toward diisopropyl methylphosphonate (DIMP) and tributyl phosphate (TBP). Polymer activity was assessed by solid-phase extraction and high-performance liquid chromatography experiments. Both DIMP- and TBP-specific vinylpyridine-based MIPs selectively retained their targets relative to a non-imprinted control. Proof-of-principle experiments demonstrated highly selective analysis of the targets from fortified complex matrix samples (diesel fuel, gasoline, and air extract concentrate). The retained MIP fractions gave near quantitative recovery of the target analytes with very low matrix background content. The same fraction from the control sorbent recovered only about half of the analyte and tended to be less pure.

[Vinylogous acyl compounds. XV. Thin-layer chromatographic detection of 2-halovinyl ketones with toxicological relevance (author's transl)].

The basic ring-opening of 1-(2-acylvinyl)-pyridinium salts yielding azaoxonol dyes and the spontaneous dehydrohalogenation of 1-(2-acylvinyl)-4-(4-nitrobenzyl)-pyridinium salts to deeply coloured anhydrous bases underlie two sensitive thin-layer chromatographic detection procedures for 2-halovinyl ketones (R-CO-CH=CH-X). The detection limits are 0.06 mug on successive use of methanolic solutions of pyridine and potassium hydroxide as spray reagents and 0.02 mug on spraying with an acetonic solution of 4-(4-nitrobenzyl)-pyridine. RF values of twenty-five trans- and twelve cis-configurated 1-halovinyl ketones for three solvent systems are given.

Selective trace analysis of sulfonylurea herbicides in water and soil samples based on solid-phase extraction using a molecularly imprinted polymer.

A molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) was synthesized using the herbicide metsulfuron-methyl (MSM) as a template, 2-(trifluoromethyl)acrylic acid as a functional monomer, divinylbenzene as a cross-linker, and dichloromethane as a porogen. This polymer was used as a solid-phase extraction material for the quantitative enrichment of five sulfonylureas (nicosulfuron, thifensulfuron-methyl, metsulfuron-methyl, sulfometuron-methyl, and chlorsulfuron) in natural water and soil samples and off-line coupled to a reversed-phase HPLC/diode array detection (HPLC/DAD). Washing solvent was optimized in terms of kind and volume for removing the matrix constituents nonspecifically adsorbed on the MIP. It has been shown that the nonspecific binding ability of the sulfonylureas to the polymer largely increased along with increasing the concentration of Ca2+ ions in the water sample, whereas complexation of divalent ions with EDTA eliminated this interference completely. The stability of MIP was tested by consecutive percolation of water sample, and it was shown that the performance of the MIP did not vary even after 200 enrichment and desorption cycles. Recoveries of the five sulfonylureas extracted from 1 L of tap water and surface water samples such as river water and rainwater at a 50 ng/L spike level were not lower than 96%. The recoveries of sulfonylureas extracted from 10-g soil sample at the 50 microg/kg level were in the range of 71-139%. Depending on the particular compound, the limit of detection varied from 2 to 14 ng/L in water and from 5 to 12 microg/kg in soil samples. The MIP was also compared with a commercially available C-18 column and an immunoaffinity support with encapsulated polyclonal anti-MSM antibodies in sol-gel glass.
