Determination of cobalt, nickel and iron at trace level in natural water samples by in-column chelation-reversed phase high-performance liquid chromatography
Abstract:This paper reports the utilization of 4-(2-pyridylazo) resorcinol (PAR) as a chelating reagent for in-column derivatization and the determination of trace Co, Fe, and Ni ions by reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography with photodiode array detector. A good separation of Co, Fe, and Ni chelates were achieved by using an Inertsil ODS-3 column and a mobile phase, consisted of methanol-THF-water mixture (50:5:45) containing ammonium acetate buffer (pH 5.0) and PAR. After full optimization, good repea… Show more
“…The residue metal ion was measured by a UV–vis spectrophotometer. Arsenazo (III) was used to measure La 3+ and Nd 3+ , , 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol for Co 2+ and Ni 2+ , , and sodium diethyldithiocarbamate for Cu 2+ , respectively. The data were averaged from three independent measurements.…”
Here, we provide an effective method to fabricate magnetic ZnO clay nanocomposite hydrogel via the photopolymerization. The inorganic components endow the hydrogel with high mechanical strength, while the organic copolymers exhibit good adsorption capacity and separation selectivity to La (III) ions. An optimized hydrogel has the maximum compressive stress of 316.60±15.83 kPa, which still exhibits 138.98±7.32 kPa compressive strength after swelling. The maximum adsorption capacity of La ion is 58.8 mg/g. The adsorption matches the pseudo-second-order kinetics model. La (III) ions can be effectively separated from the mixtures of La/Ni, La/Co, La/Cu, and La/Nd in a broad pH range (2.0 to 8.0). After six adsorption-desorption cycles, the hydrogel can maintain its adsorption capacity. This work not only provides a new approach to the synthesis of tough hydrogels under irradiation, but also opens up enormous opportunities to make full use of magnetic nanocomposite hydrogels in environmental fields.

“…(35,36) This compound is a popular reagent applied in spectrophotometric, chelatometric, and colorimetric analyses owing to its ability to correlate with many different metals. (37)(38)(39)(40)(41)(42) The versatility of this compound may be due to its several reactive sites, such as a pyridyl nitrogen atom, an azo group, and an o-hydroxyl group. (43) The pyridyl group is derived from pyridine (C 5 H 5 N) by removing a hydrogen atom from a ring carbon atom.…”
Label-free measurements of small-molecule binding interactions are of high interest to researchers across multiple scientific disciplines. Label-free optical sensors based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR) have been widely used for detecting various targets including toxic heavy metals in solutions. In this research, an SPR optical sensor enhanced with a 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol (PAR)-based composite layer was employed for the detection of the cobalt ion (Co 2+). A binding analysis study was conducted by monitoring the interaction between Co 2+ and the sensing layer thin film. In our experiment, there were no changes in SPR angle for a gold layer in contact with Co 2+ of different concentrations, whereas the enhanced SPR sensor produced a maximum SPR angle shift of 0.328°. From the relationship between the angle shift and the concentration of Co 2+ , the sensor had a sensitivity of 0.2375° ppm −1 for concentrations of less than 1 ppm, 0.0044° ppm −1 for concentrations of 1 to 10 ppm, and 0.00069° ppm −1 for concentrations from 10 to 100 ppm. Further analysis was also carried out by calculating the full width at half maximum (FWHM), detection accuracy (DA), and signal-tonoise ratio (SNR). In the binding analysis, the experimental results were fitted with Langmuir, Freundlich, and Sips isotherm equations. It was found that the Sips isotherm equation most closely fitted the experimental data with an R 2 value of 0.96716 and a binding affinity of 1.649 ppm −1 .
“…To date, there have been various methods for the determination of Co 2+ concentration, such as chromatographic techniques, electrochemical methods, inductively coupled plasma, nanomaterials and fluorescence techniques . Colorimetric methods are a useful technology for monitoring analytes owing to their convenience, simplicity and naked‐eye observation compared with other analytical methods.…”
