Inductively Coupled Plasma/Optical Emission Spectrometry

Cumulative effects of dibutyl phthalate and diethylhexyl phthalate on male rat reproductive tract development: altered fetal steroid hormones and genes.

Exposure to plasticizers di(n-butyl) phthalate (DBP) and diethylhexyl phthalate (DEHP) during sexual differentiation causes male reproductive tract malformations in rats and rabbits. In the fetal male rat, these two phthalate esters decrease testosterone (T) production and insulin-like peptide 3 (insl3) gene expression, a hormone critical for gubernacular ligament development. We hypothesized t...

Determination of Nutrition Labeling Education Act Minerals in Foods by Inductively Coupled Plasma- Optical Emission Spectroscopy

The Nutrition Labeling Education Act of 1990 (NLEA) mandates significant reform of food labels and requires extensive chemical testing and analytical method development to implement. Many minerals and nutrient metals are targeted for labeling. Part of the analytical challenge to be met results from the large numbers of samples to be tested and widely divergent levels of the elements of interest...

Screening and Optimization of Microextraction of Pb(II) by Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Using Response Surface Methodology

Dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (DLLME) combined with inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES) was applied for the determination of lead in different environmental water samples. Ammonium pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (APDC), chloroform and ethanol were used as chelating agent, extraction solvent and disperser solvent, respectively. The effective parameters, such...
