Integration of Flow Injection Analysis and Zeptomole-Level Detection of the Fe(II)-o-Phenanthroline Complex

Abstract: Microchannels having a 150×100 µm cross section were fabricated in a quartz glass chip as a component in an integrated flow injection analysis (FIA) system. They were put to use for flow, mixing, reaction, and detection. The reaction system was a chelating reaction of divalent iron ion with o-phenanthroline (o-phen), and a photothermal microscope was applied for the ultra-sensitive detection of the non-fluorescent reaction product. Nano liter levels of solutions were introduced and transported by capillary act… Show more

“…For example, flow-injection analysis was integrated on a single microchip, and the Fe(II)-ophenanthroline complex was determined at zeptomole levels. 21 The observed mixing time was about 20 s, which corresponded well to the calculated value, with the diffusion length assumed to be the channel size. Furthermore, a solvent-extraction system was also integrated on a glass microchip, 22 and the Febathophenanthrolinedisulfonic acid complex in aqueous solution was extracted in chloroform by forming an ion-pair product.…”

“…In 150 µm wide microchannels, for example, the mixing time was estimated to be about 20 s, which corresponds well to the molecular diffusion time. 21 Therefore, provided that mixing is performed only by diffusion, the smaller is the width of the microchannel, the faster can be the reaction completed. By using the fast mixing and diffusion properties of microchip analysis, an analytical system can be integrated into a chip with high performance.…”

“…(3), are at the same level for aqueous, organo-aqueous, and organo-aqueous extraction systems: the average normalized LOD of the latter is only 20% lower than that of the former. This shows that an actual increase in the sensitivity of extraction procedures results from high εTL and high excitation powers in these studies, [25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34] and not from the solvent properties. On the contrary, the normalized LODs for organo-aqueous mixtures exhibit the same LOD decrease as do the extraction procedures, but with much less changes in methodology compared to aqueous solutions.…”

“…We have chosen Co and Fe determination because (i) the photometric methods for these metals are both sensitive and reliable; 24 (ii) they are based on the same reaction type, chelation; (iii) these methods cover all of the selected procedure types; and (iv) optimized TLS/TLM procedures have low practical LODs under batch and flow conditions. 3,4,[25][26][27][28][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36] A total of 39 procedures (16 for Fe and 23 for Co) were considered.…”
