Abstract A prior method for determination of glyphosate in water samples has been modified to accommodate samples of crops and soils. Differential pulse polarography as the determinative step enables analysis in an aqueous medium, which is important during extraction of this compound. Residues are cleaned up and concentrated by ion exchange on a strong basic resin in OH- form. The method is rapid, is applicable to a relatively broad selection of sample types, and gives recoveries consistently better than 60% with good precision. The main shortcoming of the method is that the limit of detection of 0.5-1.0 ppm may sometimes be inadequate. The metabolite, aminomethyl phosphonic acid, is not detected.

Pulse Polarography

A new and simple differential pulse polarographic method has been developed for the trace determination of arsenic. When selenite was added into solutions of some ions such as copper, lead, cadmium, zinc, and chromium, their differential pulse polarographic peak decreased. A new reduction peak appeared at a more positive potential than the ion present and it was always higher than the corresponding reduction peak of the ion. Thus, we made use of this interference for the trace determination of As(III). By the addition of selenite onto As(III), a new As−Se intermetallic compound peak was formed at about −0.35 V (pH at about 1.0–2.0). The trace arsenic concentration could be determined simply from this peak by the addition of standard arsenic into a polarographic cell. In the presence of large amounts of selenite, 2 × 10−7 mol/L As(III) could be determined from this peak precisely. With the newly established method, the limit of detection was 1 × 10−8 mol/L (S/N = 3). Among the most common cations and anions, only Cd−Se and Pb−Se intermetallic compound peaks had an overlap with the As−Se peak. This interference could be eliminated simply by the addition of EDTA. This method was applied successfully for the determination of arsenic in a digested beer sample.

3-Pyridyl-N,N-bis[(8-quinolyl)amino]methane was studied by DC polarography, coulometry, cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse polarography in a system comprising Britton-Robinson buffer and 15 vol.% ethanol at pH 7.0.

A method is described for determining total platinum content in urine, blood plasma and tissues of patients or experimental animals receiving cis-dichlorodiamineplatinum(II). The method is based on drying and combustion of the biological material in a muffle furnace. The product of the combustion is dissolved successively in aqua regia, hydrochloric acid and ethylenediamine. The resulting platinum-ethylenediamine complex yields a catalytic current at a dropping mercury electrode allowing to determine platinum by differential pulse polarography. Platinum levels of c. 50-1 000 ng per ml of the biological fluid or per 0.5 g of a tissue can readily be analyzed with a linear calibration.

Conditions were found for the determination of 6-mercaptopurine (I) and 6-thioguanine (II) by TAST polarography, differential pulse polarography and fast-scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. The detection limits were 10-6, 8 . 10-8, and 6 . 10-8 mol l-1, respectively. A further lowering of the detection limit to 2 . 10-8 mol l-1 was attained by preliminary accumulation of the determined substances at the surface of a hanging mercury drop.

The polarographic reduction of the title azo dye was studied and optimal conditions were found for its analytical utilization in the concentration range 1 . 10-6 - 1 . 10-7 mol l-1 using differential pulse polarography and 1 . 10-6 - 1 . 10-8 mol l-1 using fast scan differential pulse voltammetry or linear scan voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. When the latter technique is combined with adsorptive accumulation of the studied substance on the surface of the hanging mercury drop, the determination limit can be further decreased to 3 . 10-9 mol l-1.

Polarographic reduction of the genotoxic N,N’-dinitrosopiperazine was studied and its mechanism was suggested. Optimum conditions were established for the determination of this substance by tast polarography over the concentration region of 1 . 10-3 to 1 . 10-6 mol l-1 and by differential pulse polarography on the conventional dropping mercury electrode or by fast scan differential pulse voltammetry and linear sweep voltammetry on a hanging mercury drop electrode over the concentration region of 1 . 10-3 to 1 . 10-7 mol l-1. Attempts at increasing further the sensitivity via adsorptive accumulation of the analyte on the surface of the hanging mercury drop failed. The methods are applicable to the testing of the chemical efficiency of destruction of the title chemical carcinogen based on its oxidation with potassium permanganate in acid solution.

The combination of ion-pair extraction and differential pulse polarography is shown to be a method suitable for the determination of 10-7 mol l-1 concentrations of organic bases of quaternary ammonium compounds. Orange II (4-[2-hydroxy-1-naphtyl]azobenzenesulfonic acid) was found to be an appropriate polarographically active counter-ion. The proposed method was used for the determination of tetrapentylammonium bromide (as model compound), Septonex ([1-(ethoxycarbonyl)-pentadecyl]trimethylammonium bromide) and codeine.

The polarographic behavior of 3-nitrofluoranthene was investigated by DC tast polarography (DCTP) and differential pulse polarography (DPP), both at a dropping mercury electrode, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV), both at a hanging mercury drop electrode. Optimum conditions have been found for its determination by the given methods in the concentration ranges of 1 × 10-6-1 × 10-4 mol l-1 (DCTP), 1 × 10-7-1 × 10-4 mol l-1 (DPP), 1 × 10-8-1 × 10-6 mol l-1 (DPV) and 1 × 10-9-1 × 10-7 mol l-1 (AdSV), respectively. Practical applicability of these techniques was demonstrated on the determination of 3-nitrofluoranthene in drinking and river water after its preliminary separation and preconcentration using liquid-liquid and solid phase extraction with the limits of determination 4 × 10-10 mol l-1 (drinking water) and 2 × 10-9 mol l-1 (river water).
