A capillary electrophoresis microchip is developed for the rapid determination of 4-amino-3-methyl-N-ethyl-N-(b-methane sulfonamidoethyl)aniline (CD-3) in commercial colour photographic processing solutions and the applicability of the method is examined. The use of indirect fluorescence as an on-chip detection method is also demonstrated. Using a running buffer at pH 11.9 prepared from disodium hydrogenphosphate and fluorescein the quantitative determination of CD-3 is achieved, resulting in an analysis time of approximately 7 s. Under these conditions, a detection limit of about 5 mg L 21 is obtained, with good linearity between signal and concentration over a range of 5-20 mg L 21 .
The separation and detection of both print and film developing agents (CD-3 and CD-4) in photographic processing solutions using chip-based capillary electrophoresis is presented. For simultaneous detection of both analytes under identical experimental conditions a buffer pH of 11.9 is used to partially ionise the analytes. Detection is made possible by indirect fluorescence, where the ions of the analytes displace the anionic fluorescing buffer ion to create negative peaks. Under optimal conditions, both analytes can be analyzed within 30 s. The limits of detection for CD-3 and CD-4 are 0.17 mM and 0.39 mM, respectively. The applicability of the method for the analysis of seasoned photographic processing developer solutions is also examined.

This paper describes the methodological optimization and validation of a simple micellar electrokinetic chromatography for the rapid simultaneous separation of 2-methyl-4-isothiazolin-3-one, methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, and butylparaben. By using a 30 mM phosphate buffer (pH 7.2) containing 30 mM sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), an applied voltage of 10 kV and a separation temperature of 40˚C, a quantitative determination was achieved, resulting in an analysis time of approximately 4 min. Only dilution and filtration are needed before analysis. The parameters for validation, such as linear ranges, detection limits, accuracy, and precision, are also reported.
