A new electroanalytical method for detecting methylamphetamine as a stimulant drug in human urine has been proposed for forensic purposes. Although methylamphetamine itself has no remarkable voltammetric waves at any electrode in various electrolytes, we have found that the copper complex of methylamphetamine obtained by the method of Feigl showed a well-defined peak at -0.56 V (
vs. SCE) at a mercury electrode by differential pulse polarography (DPP) in an aqueous ethanol solution containing 0.25 M ammonium acetate. The peak height was linear as a function of the methyl-amphetamine concentration in the original test solutions in the region of at least 0 - 50 µg/ml. The concentrations of methylamphetamine determined by the present method for eight abusers’ urine samples were in excellent agreement with those obtained by the conventional methods (GC-MS analysis) so far used. The proposed method is rather simple in procedure, rapid and selective with a satisfactory detection limit (<0.125 µg/ml) for analysis of methylamphetamine, and would also be applicable for field use.

Black, blue and red writing pens were classified into various groups using the
Rf values and color tones of dyestuff bands separated by normal-phase thin-layer chromatography (TLC) of their inks. The classification is effective for the preliminary identification of pens used in crime scenes. A microsampling technique was proposed for the TLC analysis of minute quantities of inks on questioned documents. Furthermore, a combination of reflectance-mode microscope/Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and the pin-point condensation technique was proved to be useful for the precise discrim-ination of trace amounts of analogous water-soluble dyestuffs on TLC plates.

Total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (TXRF) is one of the most common tools to analyze metal contaminants on silicon wafers and other substrate surfaces. Although the detection limit of commercial TXRF was improved to the concentration region of 10
9 atoms cm
-2, its accuracy at low concentration was not yet clarified until now. In this paper, we examine the accuracy of the quantitative analysis by TXRF under 10
11 atoms cm
-2 for Fe, Ni, Cu and Zn. In particular, four factors (standard sample, reference analyzing method, compensation of spurious peak and peak separation) are considered. Under a controlled condition, the accuracy is within 20% as compared with atomic absorption spectropho-tometry (AAS).

A quantification method in secondary ion mass spectrometry called the “high-energy method” is proposed: it uses the exponential dependence of secondary ion intensities on the reciprocal of ion velocity. This method was derived from the same velocity dependence of secondary-ion emission as the infinite velocity method proposed by van der Heide, but does not require either the entire energy spectrum of each secondary ion or the special inverse velocity plot. The high-energy method is suitable for simple evaluation of concentrations ranging from several parts per million to tenths of percents.

The solvent extraction included 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone as a chelating extractant and carbon tetrachloride as a solvent. The metal extractability in the absence and presence of kryptofix 22 gave a quantitative measure of the stability of metal-kryptofix 22 complexes formed in aqueous solution which were found to be unanimously 1:1 (metal:ligand ratio) in composition. The complex stability constants thus obtained (0.1 M sodium chloride, 298 K) were in the range 10

The ion-association properties of monovalent and divalent naphtholsulfonate ions were investigated with tetrabutylammonium ion (TBA
+) as a pairing ion in an aqueous solution. The ion-association constants were obtained by analyzing the change in the electrophoretic mobility of naphtholsulfonate ions in the presence of TBA
+ by capillary zone electrophoresis; also, the contribution of a hydroxyl group to the ion associability of monovalent and divalent naphtholsulfonate ions, as well as the electrophoretic mobility of the ions, was investigated. The obtained ion-association constants indicate that the positional isomers possessing anionic groups at the
β-position of the naphthalene ring are more associable with TBA
+ than those at the
α-position, and that the ion associability of the divalent naphtholsulfonates is larger than those of the monovalent ones, except for 1-naphthol-2-sulfonate. The abnormal associability of 1-naphthol-2-sulfonate can be explained by a synergistic increase in the hydrophilicity of the divalent ion. The difference in the ion associability between the monovalent and divalent naphtholsulfonates, 0.16 in log unit on the average, was smaller than that between the naphthalenesulfonate and naphthalenedisulfonate ions, 0.30 log unit on the average. The electrophoretic mobility of the naphtholsulfonate ions obtained in the absence of TBA
+ is compared with each other, and the contribution of the hydroxyl group is discussed on the basis of the hydration behavior of the naphtholsulfonates.

A thermal method for the fractional determination of elemental carbon (EC) and total soluble and insoluble organic compounds (TSOC and TIOC) in airborne particulate matter has been developed by the optimization of its heating schedule and the pre-separation of other thermal degradable matter. Mixtures of cotton, sucrose or starch as model insoluble organic compounds and carbon black or activated carbon as model EC were subjected to thermogravimetry-differential scanning calorimetry (TG-DSC), and its heating schedule was investigated to separate an exothermic peak of carbon generated from organic compounds from that of EC. The heating schedule with a holding step at 430°C for 60 min gave the best recoveries for such carbonaceous components. Weight losses of 180 - 485°C and 485 - 665°C in TG curves were adopted for the determination of TIOC and EC, respectively. In order to determine TSOC and to separate thermal degradable inorganic compounds like sulfate, carbonate and hydroxide, systematic separation consisting of acetone, water and 0.1 M hydrochloric acid extraction and heavy liquid separation of its residue was applied to real samples prior to ther-mal analysis. The fractions were subjected to TG-DSC; EC and TIOC were successfully determined fractionally.

Humic and fulvic acids in environmental water were determined by UV spectrophotometry after concentration with diethylaminoethyl(DEAE)-cellulose and separation at pH 1 by centrifugation. The ranges of fulvic and humic acids in Katsura, Uji, Kidzu and Yodo Rivers were from about 0.50 to 3.2 mg/l and 0.025 to 0.2 mg/l, except for the sampling points, which were located downstream of a sewage-disposal plant. Fulvic acid was predominant in these rivers. The concentrations of humic substances were high in the summer and low in the winter. The concentrations of humic substances in these rivers decreased fairly much from December of 1992 to August of 1993. The annual changes in the values of humic substances during 1993 to 1996 were smaller than the change from 1992 to 1993. The trends for the seasonal and annual changes in the concentration of the trihalomethane formation potential in Yodo rivers were almost consistent with those of humic substances.

N-propyl-
N-sulfopropylamino)phenol (Nitroso-PSAP) to form a water-soluble chelate anion, which is adsorbed on the resin at pH 8.0; the resulting resin is filtered through a membrane filter (13 mm in diameter). The resin with the membrane filter is inserted into a cell, and the intensity of the photoacoustic signal of iron(II) is measured at 826 nm. The calibration graph for iron(II) was linear over the range 0.05 - 0.8 µg in 30 - 500 ml of a sample solution. The relative standard deviation for eight measurements at 0.5 µg of iron(II) was 5.4%. The detection limit was 10 ng of iron(II) in 500 ml (20 ngFe l

The mass-transfer characteristics were studied in a reversed-phase liquid chromatography consisting of an octadecylsilyl-silica gel and acetonitrile/water mixture (70/30, vol), and were compared with those obtained by using methanol/water (70/30, vol). In the two chromatographic systems, similar tendencies were observed for various adsorption characteristics. However, their absolute values were not entirely identical. Irrespective of the type of organic modifiers, surface diffusion was dominant for intraparticle diffusion. Similar correlations were also demonstrated with regard to the surface diffusion,
i.e., the enthalpy-entropy compensation and the linear free-energy relation, suggesing a similarity in the surface migration mechanism in the two chromatographic systems. A few estimation procedures of the surface diffusion coefficient were proposed.

β-
D-glucopyranoside, were found to be effective for direct separation of racemic mixture of 1,1′-binaphthyl-2,2′-diyl hydrogenphosphate (BNP).
D-Forms of galactose, sorbose, fructose, ribose, arabinose and xylose failed chiral separation of BNP. We tentatively concluded that monosaccharides (in the case of
D-forms) must satisfy the following structural requirements for successful chiral separation of BNP enantiomers: (1) oxygen atom at C-1 is in
α-configuration, (2) -OH group at C-4 is downward configurated and (3) the presence of a -CH
2OH or -CH
3 group at C-5. Thus, in the case of
D-glucose, the chiral separation of BNP is anticipated to be achieved predominantly through the hydrogen bonding between oxygen atom at C-1 and hydrogen atom of -OH group at C-4 on
D-glucose and hydrogenphosphate moiety of BNP.

A method for the determination of the critical micelle concentration (CMC) of anionic surfactants by capillary electrophoresis (CE) has been developed. The method is based on the measurement of migration time of 2-naphthalene-methanol as a marker compound in CE, using varying concentrations of a desired surfactant in phosphate buffer (pH 7.0) as electrolyte solution. When the migration time of 2-naphthalenemethanol was plotted against the surfactant concentration, an inflection point appeared which corresponded to the CMC. By the CE method, the CMC values of seven anionic surfactants including sodium salts of alkyl sulfate, alkylsulfonic acid, fatty acid and bile acid were successfully determined; the CMC of sodium dodecyl sulfate determined by the CE method was 3.92 mM, which agreed closely with those measured by a dye solubilization method (3.53 mM) and a conductometric method (4.02 mM). The present CE method enabled the determination of CMC, if required, using as little as 300 µl or smaller volumes each of varying concentrations of surfactant solutions.

During a differential pulse polarographic determination of selenium, the selenite peak was diminished upon the addition of some ions, such as lead, copper and cadmium. On the other hand, the addition of selenite ion had the same effect on the peaks of the mentioned ions. In both cases a new reduction peak appeared at a more positive potential with respect to the selenite and present ion reductions. This observation is attributed to an intermetallic compound formation between selenium and the ions present. The peak is brought about by a reduction of the lead ion, which afterwards forms an inter-metallic compound with selenium adsorbed on the mercury-drop surface (Pb
2++Se
(ads)+2e ⇔ PbSe
(ads)). Temperature-dependence studies also revealed that the observed phenomenon is a surface reaction.
