Abstract Large volume injection (LVI) in gas chromatography (GC) and online liquid chromatography-gas chromatography (LC-GC) are useful techniques for analyzing the compounds present at very low concentrations in complex samples since they substantially increase the sensitivity of the analysis and simplify sample preparation. LVI avoids the need to concentrate the extract and even the extraction step itself by directly injecting the sample. In online LC-GC, the liquid chromatography (LC) step acts as the sample preparation and/or fractionation step. The main problem in both techniques is the selective elimination of the large volume of solvent without losing the analytes. The TOTAD (through oven transfer adsorption–desorption) interface, based on a widely modified PTV (programmed temperature vaporizer) injector, allows large volumes to be injected into the gas chromatograph using both nonpolar and polar solvents, including water. Consequently, online LC-GC can be carried out whether the LC step is in the normal phase or the reversed phase. Various methods for analyzing trace compounds in food and environmental samples have been developed for LVI and online LC-GC using the TOTAD interface. Such analysis methods require the optimization of several variables common to LVI and online LC-GC and specific variables involved in online LC-GC, which must be optimized by taking into account the nature of the analytes and the characteristics of the sample matrix. This article reviews how each of these variables affects the performance of the analysis.

Abstract Rice is the main staple food after wheat for more than half of the world’s population in Asia. Apart from carbohydrate source, rice is gaining significant interest in terms of functional foods owing to the presence of aromatic compounds that impart health benefits by lowering glycemic index and rich availability of dietary fibers. The demand for aromatic rice especially basmati rice is expanding in local and global markets as aroma is considered as the best quality and desirable trait among consumers. There are more than 500 volatile aromatic compounds (VACs) vouched for excellent aroma and flavor in cooked aromatic rice due to the presence of aromatic hydrocarbons, aldehydes, phenols, alcohols, ketones, and esters. The predominant VAC contributing to aroma is 2 acetyl-1-pyrroline, which is commonly found in aerial parts of the crop and deposits during seed maturation. So far, literature has been focused on reporting about aromatic compounds in rice but its extraction, characterization, and quantification using analytical techniques are limited. Hence, in the present review, extraction, characterization, and application of aromatic compound have been elucidated. These VACs can give a new way to food processing and beverage industry as bioflavor and bioaroma compounds that enhance value addition of beverages, food, and fermented products such as gluten-free rice breads. Furthermore, owing to their nutritional values these VACs can be used in biofortification that ultimately addresses the food nutrition security.

Abstract Neonicotinoid insecticides are widely used to kill and prevent unwanted insects from attacking growing crops. Extensive use of insecticides in various compartments of the environment has led to adverse effect on the health of living organisms. Several analytical methodologies have been reported for extraction and quantification of neonicotinoid insecticides in various matrices. The analytical detection techniques range from traditional to modern or state of the art quantification methods. The traditional analytical techniques include gas chromatography and high-performance liquid chromatography. These methods require extensive sample pretreatment before identification, separation, and quantification of target analytes. Advanced detection techniques refer to the sensor technologies based on optical, biorecognition, molecular imprinted polymers chemical, and piezoelectric. In this review, a summary and explanation of the various traditional analytical and advanced methodologies for extraction, separation, detection, and quantification of neonicotinoid insecticides residue in water samples have been discussed.

Abstract Food safety and quality have gained much attention and the capability to evaluate food quality and safety in a sensitive, rapid, and reliable manner is of great importance in the food industry. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) with the advantages of excellent sensitivity, high selectivity, non-destructive nature, and significant enhancement to identify the target has demonstrated a great potential for quick detection of the food sample. The enhancement of Raman signals for SERS is not only related to the interactions between substrates and samples but also the functionalization of substrates to gain SERS active substrates. In the present review, this paper summarized the progress of SERS quantitative analysis and application in food safety detection. The future trends and perspectives were also given.

Abstract Sensitive DNA assays are of importance in life science and biomedical engineering, but they are heavily dependent on thermal cycling programs or enzyme-assisted schemes, which require the utilization of bulky devices and costly reagents. To circumvent such requirements, we developed an isothermal enzyme-free DNA sensing method with dual-stage signal amplification ability based on the coupling use of catalytic hairpin assembly (CHA) and Mg2+-dependent deoxyribozyme (DNAzyme). In this study, the sensing system involves a set of hairpin DNA probes for CHA (ensuring the first stage of signal amplification) as well as ribonucleobase-modified molecular beacons that serve as activatable substrates for DNAzymes (warranting the second stage of signal amplification). An experimentally determined detection limit of about 0.5 pM is achieved with a good linear range from 0.5 to 10 pM. The results from spiked fetal bovine serum samples further confirm the reliability for practical applications. The non-thermal cycling, enzyme-free, and dual-amplified features make it a powerful sensing tool for effective nucleic acid assay in a variety of biomedical applications.

Abstract The widespread coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, attributed to the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2, has resulted in global lockdowns and excess mortality. Remdesivir (RM) is the first and only antiviral drug that the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved so far for COVID-19. The treatment protocol involves multidrug combinations, basically depending on RM, in addition to antimicrobials, antipyretics, corticosteroids, and anticoagulants. This study develops and validates sensitive and selective RM screening in spiked human plasma in the presence of commonly co-administered drugs. Hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, paracetamol, dexamethasone, and anticoagulants (rivaroxaban and edoxaban) have been detected simultaneously with RM in the same biological matrix. Separation has been efficiently achieved by simple reversed phase HPLC with dual detectors. Diode array detector and fluorimetric detection have been used to compare their sensitivity and selectivity. Both assays have been validated according to bioanalytical FDA validation parameters. Chromatographic separation and quantitation of RM along with concomitant drugs instantly bioscreen COVID-19 multiple therapy medication in 10 min run time. Furthermore, the proposed in vitro study takes the lead for prospective testing of possible drug–drug interactions that alter the pharmacokinetic profiles of drugs.

Abstract Surface enhanced Raman is a powerful analytical tool with high sensitivity and unique specificity and promising applications in various branches of analytical chemistry. Despite the fabrication of ingenious enhancement substrate used in laboratory research, the development of simple, flexible, and cost-effective substrate is also great important for promoting the application of SERS in practical analysis. Recently, paper and filter membrane as support to fabricate flexible SERS substrates received considerable attentions. Paper-based SERS substrate has been reviewed but no summary on filter-based SERS substrate is available. Compared with paper, filter membrane has unique advantage in robust mechanics, diverse component, and tunable pore size. These characteristics endow the filter-based substrates great advantages for practical SERS analysis including simple and low-cost substrate preparation, high efficiency in preconcentration, separation and detection procedure. Therefore, filter-based substrates have shown great promise in SERS analysis in environment monitoring, food safety with high sensitivity and efficiency. As more and more work has been emerged, it is necessary to summarize the state of such a research topic. Here, the research on filter involved SERS analysis in the past eight years is summarized. A short introduction was presented to understand the background, and then the brief history of filter-based substrate is introduced. After that, the preparation of filter-based substrate and the role of filter are summarized. Then, the application of filter involved SERS substrate in analysis is presented. Finally, the challenges and perspective on this topic is discussed.

Abstract Antidepressants are a class of compounds widely used in clinical settings for the treatment of several diseases. In the last years there has been a considerable increase in their consumption, representing an important public health issue in several countries. Because they are substances with narrow therapeutic windows, and since they are capable of interacting with other classes of compounds, monitoring of these compounds is of relevance, minimizing the risk of medical interactions as well as side and toxic effects. In addition, understanding the extent of their use, their detection through routine toxicology tests and development of new methods for detection and monitoring is of extreme importance concerning public health, patient well-being, and implications in clinical and forensic situations. The main objective of this work is to perform a critical review on the biological samples used in the detection and quantification of antidepressants with special focus on the techniques for sample preparation.

Abstract Even very low concentrations of heavy metal pollutants have adverse effects on the environment and on human health. Thus, determining even trace concentrations of heavy metals in various samples has attracted a lot of attention. The conventional analytical methods used for the sampling and analysis of heavy metals have some limitations, including the effects of the matrix and their high detection limits. Thus, various methods are used for the pretreatment and concentration of the target analytes, and these methods are time-consuming, expensive, and require the use of toxic solvents. In recent years, supramolecular solvent-based microextraction (SSME), a green analytical strategy, has been used to determine low concentrations of heavy metals in various matrices. This method has unique features such as high enrichment factor, short extraction time, and rapid analysis. In addition, it is cost effective because it consumes less chemical reagents than other methods. Also, it is ecofriendly, and it has good sensitivity and selectivity. Herein, we presented a comprehensive review of the application of the SSME technique for the analysis of heavy metals in water, food, and biological samples. Also, we have provided the distinctive properties of the SSME technique, discussed the challenges that lie ahead, and addressed the potential future trend.

Abstract Two new potentiometric sensors were created for the quantification of bisoprolol fumarate and alverine citrate in bulk pharmaceutical dosage forms and human serum. Bisoprolol and alverine sensors were manufactured by combining potassium tetrakis (p-chlorophenyl) borate ion pairs to serve as electroactive substances, plasticized poly (vinyl chloride) matrix membranes, and o-nitrophenyl octyl ether. They demonstrated high responses over the concentration ranges of 1.0×10−6 to 1.0×10−2 mol L−1 bisoprolol and alverine with close to Nernstian cationic slopes of 52 and 56 mV decade−1, respectively. The detection limits for bisoprolol and alverine were 2.6×10−6 and 1.75×10−6 mol L−1, respectively. For both medications, the response time was instantaneous (2.0 s). The working pH ranges for bisoprolol and alverine were 4.50–8.50 and 2.00–8.80, respectively. For both sensors, the life cycle was long (3 months). The sensors were used in pharmaceutical dosage types for the assay of bisoprolol and alverine, recording average recoveries of 99.40% and 99.98% respectively and were also successfully used for estimating the two drugs in human serum with an average recovery of 99.60% for both drugs. For all multiple staged interfering materials, the reported latest potentiometric sensor methods displayed high selectivity. The current sensor obtained a high percentage recovery and an excellent relative standard deviation compared with those obtained from previously published methods.

The current sensor obtained a high percentage recovery and an excellent relative standard deviation compared with those obtained from previously published methods.","PeriodicalId":21090,"journal":{"name":"Reviews in Analytical Chemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82080106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
