An HPLC method for the separation and analysis of phosphorylated sugars is presented. Ion-exchange chromatography coupled to indirect ultraviolet detection has produced good resolution and sensitivity. Fructose 6-P, glucose 6-P, ribose 5-P, 3-phosphoglyceric acid, ribulose 1,5-P(2), fructose 1,6-P(2), and sedoheptulose 1,7-P(2) can be separated at a sensitivity down to 10 nanomoles. The system ...

We have utilized hybrid zinc oxide/silica microdisk lasers to sense volatile organic compounds, such as toluene and nitrobenzene. Nonspecific adsorption of these organic molecules onto the microdisk surface causes an increase in the disk refractive index, ultimately resulting in a redshift of the observed lasing wavelengths. The monitoring of these shifts provides the sensing modality. Microdis...

ezetimide belongs to a class of lipid lowering compounds that selectively inhibits intestinal absorption of cholesterol and related phytosterols. the purpose of this study is to establish a reliable and quick method for the assignment of ezetimibe in tablets form by high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (hplc-uv). a rapid and sensitive hplc method has been developed ...

tolterodine tartrate, is a new, potent and competitive muscarinic receptor antagonist in clinical development for the treatment of urge incontinence and other symptoms of unstable bladder. the purpose of this study is to establish a reliable and quick method for the assignment of tolterodine tartrate by high performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection (hplc-uv). a rapid and sen...

A newly developed single quad mass spectrometry (MS) detector was coupled to a ultra-high performance liquid chromatography (UPLC) system and implemented in the routine quality control (QC) and impurity analysis of four therapeutic peptides, namely bleomycin sulfate, tyrothricin, vancomycin HCl and bacitracin, which were selected given their multi-component drug nature and their closely structu...

In the present study, the construction of arrays on silicon for naked-eye detection of DNA dengue was demonstrated. The array was created by exposing a polyethylene glycol (PEG) silane monolayer to 254 nm ultraviolet (UV) light through a photomask. Formation of the PEG silane monolayer and photomodifed surface properties was thoroughly characterized by using atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray...

The aims were to develop a liquid chromatographic (LC) method with ultraviolet detection (UVD) for O-(2,3,4,5,6-pentafluorobenzyl)hydroxylamine hydrochloride (PFBHA) O-oximes of common aldehydes and ketones, and to define the steric limits of the synthetic reaction used to make the PFBHA O-oxime standards for gas chromatographic (GC) and LC methods. Ten new O-oximes were synthesized with the ne...

Biodiesel is often blended with regular U.S. No. 2 diesel. The blending level influences engine performance, emissions, and fuel cold‐flow properties. In this article, ultraviolet (UV) absorption spectroscopy is presented as a reliable and affordable technology for blend level detection based on the absorbance patterns of the aromatic compounds in the proposed spectrum. Blends of biodiesel from...

We present far-ultraviolet observations of IC 63, an emission/reflection nebula illuminated by the B0.5IV star γ Cassiopeia, located 1.3 pc from the nebula. Molecular hydrogen fluorescence was detected first in IC 63 by IU E and later at shorter wavelengths by ORF EU S. Here we present F ar U ltraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (F U SE) observations towards three locations in the neb-ula, complem...
