Eight trace elements were determined in 20 Brazilian brands of grape juice, distributed over the country. Highest measured concentrations (As: 0.016; Cd: 0.010; Cr: 0.060; Cu: 1.28; Ni: 0.032; Pb: 0.016; Sb: 0.0040 and Zn: 1.44 mg L-1) comply with Brazilian maximal tolerance levels for inorganic contaminants (As: 0.5; Cd: 0.5; Cr: 0.1; Cu: 30; Ni: 3; Pb: 0.4; Sb: 1 and Zn: 25 mg L-1). Determination of arsenic species has shown inorganic As(V) as predominant in most samples. Sodium concentrations, nowadays a major public health concern, were also measured, showing an average of 149 mg L-1. Analytical results for this element were much higher than label concentrations, showing the need for better quality control.

Mixed-micelle formation between sodium chlolate (NaC) and the anionic surfactant sodium dodecanoate (SDoD) in Tris-HCl buffer solutions, pH 9.00, varying the molar fraction of the surfactants, was investigated by means of electrical conductivity and steady-state fluorescence of pyrene. The critical micelar concentration (cmc) was measured from the equivalent conductance versus the square root of the molar surfactant concentration plots and the regular solution theory (RST) was used to predict the mixing behavior. The I1/I3 pyrene ratio-surfactant concentration plots were used as an additional technique to follow the behavior and the changes in the micropolarity of the mixed micelles.

A flow injection chemiluminescence method for the determination of paracetamol in pharmaceutical formulations is described. It is based on the consumption of the sodium hypochlorite by paracetamol and decreases of the analytical signal. The analytical curve was linear in the paracetamol concentration range from 5.0 x 10-6 to 5.0 x 10-5 mol L-1, with a detection limit of 1.8 x 10-6 mol L-1. The RSDs were 2.0 and 1.2% respectively for 2.0 x 10-5 and 4.0 x 10-5 mol L-1 paracetamol solutions (n = 10) and a sampling frequency of 180 h-1 was obtained.

Binary mixture phase diagrams are normally obtained from thermal analysis involving freezing point curves. However, that approach is not always reliable and easy to follow to all kinds of mixtures in any proportion. In fact, even for a simple system, such as NaCl-H2O, this freezing methodology gives mixed results when one starts from a solid-solution system, due mostly to the formation of the NaCl.2H2O, which has an incongruent melting point, and the dependence of its solubility with the temperature. In this work we report a trustworthy, simple and cheap method involving heating curves to drawn the NaCl-H2O phase diagram.

This work presents a detailed study about the sorption of crystal violet (CV) cationic dye onto polyether type polyurethane foam (PUF). The sorption process was based on the formation of an ionic-pair between cationic dye and dodecylsulfate anion (SDS), which presented high affinity by PUF. Set-up employed in the study was built up by adjusting a 200 mg cylinder of PUF to the arm of an overhead stirrer. The system was characterized in relation to equilibrium and kinetic aspects and it was modeled by employing Langmuir and Freundlich isotherms. Obtained results showed that the ratio between SDS and MB concentrations played an important role on the sorption process. According to results found it was possible to retain up to 3.4 mg of dye from 200 mL of a 5.0 x 10-5 mol L-1 CV solution containing 1.25 x 10-4 mol L-1 SDS, which represented a removal efficiency of around 92%.

Mixtures of ethyl(hydroxyethyl)cellulose (EHEC) and Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS) were investigated using surface tension, conductivity and viscosity measurements in aqueous solutions. The parameters of the surfactant to polymer association processes such as the critical aggregation concentration (cac) and saturation of the polymer by SDS (psp) were determined from the plots of surface tension and specific conductivity versus surfactant concentration. Through the final results we see that there was no specific link of polymer with the surfactant, implying therefore a phenomenon of only cooperative association.

This text describes an experiment on fractional precipitation of a polymer together with determination of average degree of polymerization by NMR. Commercial sodium polyphosphate was fractionated by precipitation from aqueous solution by adding increasing amounts of acetone. The polydisperse salt and nine fractions obtained from it were analyzed by 31P Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and the degree of polymerization of the salts and of the fractions were calculated. Long-chain sodium polyphosphate was also synthesized and analyzed. This experiment was tested in a PChem lab course but it can be used also to illustrate topics of inorganic polymers and analytical chemistry.

Reduction of camphor to a mixture of borneol and isoborneol was performed using NaBH4 as the reducing agent under suitable conditions. Although more effective reduction was accomplished using toxic methanol, an alternative non-toxic ethanolic system is described. This experiment is important to introduce undergraduate students in reductive procedures, and can be used to show details on stereoselective procedures on carbonyl moieties (facial diastereoselectivity, Bürgi-Dunitz trajectory, diastereomeric excess).

In this work, the interactions between the non-ionic polymer of ethyl(hydroxyethyl)cellulose (EHEC) and mixed anionic surfactant sodium dodecanoate (SDoD)-sodium decanoate (SDeC) in aqueous media, at pH 9.2 (20 mM borate/NaOH buffer) were investigated by electric conductivity and light transmittance measurements at 25 ºC. The parameters of the surfactant to polymer association processes such as the critical aggregation concentration and saturation of the polymer by surfactants were determined from plots of specific conductivity vs total surfactant concentration, [surfactant]tot = [SDoD] + [SDeC]. Through the results was not observed a specific link of polymer with the surfactant, implying therefore a phenomenon only cooperative association.

A high performance liquid chromatographic-diode array detection method for the determination of busulfan in plasma was developed and validated. Sample preparation consisted of protein precipitation followed by derivatization with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate and liquid-liquid extraction with methyl-tert-butyl ether. Chromatograms were monitored at 277 nm. Separation was carried out on a Lichrospher RP 18 column (5 µm, 250 x 4 mm). The mobile phase consisted of water and acetonitrile (20:80, v/v). The method presented adequate specificity, linearity, precision and accuracy and allowed reliable determination of busulfan in clinical plasma samples, being applied to three patients submitted to bone marrow transplantation.

O método empregado para a determinação de sódio por espectrometria de emissão atômica em chama, foi o das adições de analito sendo as intensidades de emissão representadas em função das concentrações de analito adicionadas às várias porções da amostra, numa faixa linear de 0 - 0,300 mg Na L-1, empregando-se 2,1 g K L-1 como supressor de ionização. Foram analisadas 20 amostras comerciais de álcool etílico hidratado combustível (AEHC), coletadas em diferentes postos de abastecimento, na cidade de Araraquara e os resultados obtidos encontram-se no intervalo, desde menor que o limite de detecção (0,0072 mg Na L-1) até 1,55 mg Na L-1. Os limites de detecção referentes à determinação de sódio em cada amostra situam-se entre 0,0026 e 0,0239 mg Na L-1. A porcentagem de recuperação variou no intervalo de 95 a 104 %. Os desvios padrão relativos (n=12) foram £ 4,1 % para as três adições de analito, nas 20 amostras de AEHC.

Estudos eletroanalíticos foram realizados com o Nedocromil de Sódio empregando as técnicas voltamétricas de varredura linear, pulso diferencial e onda quadrada, em tampão Britton-Robinson (pH 4,0). No estudo voltamétrico empregando a modalidade de varredura linear observou-se dois picos catódicos, irreversíveis, nos valores de potencial de -0,86 V e -1,10 V (vs ECS). As correntes de pico catódicas apresentaram um controle difusional segundo a relação Ipc versus v½. A dependência de Ipc com a concentração apresentou linearidade entre 5,0x10-4 mol L-1 e 5,0x10-3 mol L-1, limite de detecção de 8,2x10-5 mol L-1 e sensibilidade de 6,3x10³ mA/ mol L-1. Na voltametria de pulso diferencial o Nedocromil de Sódio apresentou dois picos catódicos, irreversíveis, nos valores de potencial de -0,67 V e -0,75 V (vs ECS). Curvas analíticas foram obtidas no intervalo de 3,0x10-6 mol L-1 a 1,0x10-5 mol L-1, limite de detecção de 4,9x10-7 mol L-1 e sensibilidade de 8,7x10(4) mA/ mol L-1. Na voltametria de onda quadrada observou-se dois picos catódicos nos valores de potencial de -0,80 V e -0,91 V (vs ECS), linearidade de 5,0x10-7 mol L-1 a 1,0x10-5 mol L-1, com limite de detecção e uma sensibilidade de 2,7x10-6 mol L-1 e 1,1x10(6) mA/ mol L-1, respectivamente.

Objetivou-se avaliar a eficiência nutricional de micronutrientes (Mn, B, Cu, Zn e Fe) e Na nos diferentes componentes das árvores de três procedências de acácia-negra (Acacia mearnsii), com 2,4 anos de idade, plantadas em Butiá-RS (Brasil). As procedências selecionadas foram Lake George, Bodalla e Batemans Bay. Constatou-se grande variação na eficiência nutricional entre as procedências. A Lake George, além de acumular maior biomassa total, foi também a mais eficiente na utilização dos nutrientes na produção de biomassa total das árvores. No entanto, a Bodalla mostrou ser a procedência mais eficiente no uso dos nutrientes para produção de biomassa da casca e da madeira.

A substituição de potássio (K) por sódio (Na) é reconhecida na literatura por aumentar a produtividade de algumas plantas, porém se conhece pouco sobre o comportamento em espécies florestais. Por isso, o objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o crescimento inicial de Enterolobium contortisiliquum e Sesbania virgata na substituição de K por Na em solução nutritiva de Hoagland e Arnon. O esquema fatorial foi 2 x 5, sendo duas espécies florestais e cinco níveis de substituição (0; 33,3; 50; 66,6; e 100%), com quatro repetições. O experimento foi instalado em vasos Leonard com capacidade para 1 L, com a troca periódica da solução nutritiva. A colheita foi realizada aos 50 dias após o início do estudo, quando se avaliaram as características morfométricas das mudas. O material foi lavado e seco, e determinou-se a matéria seca das raízes, das folhas e do caule. O material radicular e o da parte aérea foram triturados e submetidos às análises de K e Na. Por cálculo, obtiveram-se a matéria seca da parte aérea (caule + folhas), a razão de raízes/parte aérea e o acúmulo de K e Na nas raízes e na parte aérea. A substituição de K por Na promoveu diferenças significativas no desenvolvimento das mudas, nos teores e acúmulos de K e Na. A espécie Sesbania virgata apresentou o melhor desenvolvimento inicial e acumulou maior quantidade de K e Na na parte aérea.
