The other S matrix components. S 2 and. S 22 can be obtained from the Green fiinction. [Pg.967]

Two frequently encountered analytical problems are (1) the presence of matrix components interfering with the analysis of the analyte and (2) the presence of analytes at concentrations too small to analyze accurately. We have seen how a separation can be used to solve the former problem. Interestingly, separation techniques can often be used to solve the second problem as well. For separations in which a complete recovery of the analyte is desired, it may be possible to transfer the analyte in a manner that increases its concentration. This step in an analytical procedure is known as a preconcentration. [Pg.223]

Theoretical and applied aspects of microwave heating, as well as the advantages of its application are discussed for the individual analytical processes and also for the sample preparation procedures. Special attention is paid to the various preconcentration techniques, in part, sorption and extraction. Improvement of microwave-assisted solution preconcentration is shown on the example of separation of noble metals from matrix components by complexing sorbents. Advantages of microwave-assisted extraction and principles of choice of appropriate solvent are considered for the extraction of organic contaminants from solutions and solid samples by alcohols and room-temperature ionic liquids (RTILs).

The aim of our investigation was the development of the amperometric enzyme immunosensor for the determination of Klebsiella pneumoniae bacterial antigen (Ag), causes the different inflammatory diseases. The biosensing pail of the sensors consisted of the enzyme (cholinesterase) and antibodies (Ab) immobilized on the working surface of the screen-printed electrode. Bovine seiaim albumin was used as a matrix component. [Pg.329]

Most simple materia characterization tests are perfomned with a known load or stress. The resulting displacement or strain is then measured. The engineering constants are generally the slope of a stress-strain curve (e.g., E = o/e) or the slope of a strain-strain curve (e.g., v = -ey/ej5 for Ox = a and all other stresses are zero). Thus, the components of the compliance (Sy) matrix are determined more directly than those of the stiffness (Cy) matrix. For an orthotropic material, the compliance matrix components in terms of the engineering constants are... [Pg.64]

We introduce, for the sake of convenience, species indices 5 and c for the components of the fluid mixture mimicking solvent species and colloids, and species index m for the matrix component. The matrix and both fluid species are at densities p cr, Pccl, and p cr, respectively. The diameter of matrix and fluid species is denoted by cr, cr, and cr, respectively. We choose the diameter of solvent particles as a length unit, = 1. The diameter of matrix species is chosen similar to a simplified model of silica xerogel [39], cr = 7.055. On the other hand, as in previous theoretical works on bulk colloidal dispersions, see e.g.. Ref. 48 and references therein, we choose the diameter of large fluid particles mimicking colloids, cr = 5. As usual for these dispersions, the concentration of large particles, c, must be taken much smaller than that of the solvent. For all the cases in question we assume = 1.25 x 10 . The model for interparticle interactions is... [Pg.308]

As in our previous notations, the species superscript 0 is for the matrix component and the species superscript 1 denotes the fluid component. The fluid-matrix interaction is chosen between a fluid particle and a monomer belonging to a chain by using the model of additive hard spheres. The fluid-matrix and fluid-fluid interactions are...

It is difficult to decide what should serve as adequate column quality parameters for describing the performance of a set of GPC columns. The two most common measures are plate count and resolution. While both of these can be useful for monitoring the performance of a column set over time, it is not generally possible to a priori specify the performance needed for a specific analysis. This will depend on the nature of the polymer itself, as well as the other matrix components. [Pg.544]

A more justifiable reason for the added cost and analysis time that a guard column brings is to avoid a problem with adsorption of sample matrix components on the stationary phase of the analytical GPC columns. In many industrial laboratories, the usual GPC experiment deals with fairly well-controlled sample matrices that may not have absorbable components and therefore rarely require a guard column. In situations where slow adsorption of matrix components may occur on GPC columns, it may make better economic sense to periodically replace the first column of a set. Nevertheless, in... [Pg.548]

The flux increase should depend on the fibril number n. When each fibril causes a flux increase of AQ of the TLCP component, an argument of continuity suggests that there must also be a flux contribution of A Qi( 1 - (f))/(f) coming from the matrix component. Thus, the whole flux increase produced by each TLCP-rich interlayer is ... [Pg.686]

Selective sorption by the filler sorption of one of the matrix components (residual monomer, low molecular homologs, various impurities) may lead to plasticization of the boundary layers and appearance of soft interphases [115,116]. [Pg.14]

At this point, the solution containing the component to be measured (Ax) also contains any other compounds from the original matrix that are soluble in the solvent used in the analysis. For the analysis to be accurate, other components in the matrix cannot interfere by eluting at the same retention time as the components to be measured. For accurate MS analyses, the matrix component must not interfere with production of the ions being measured for either the internal standard or the component to be measured. In some cases, to eliminate interferences, it may be necessary to increase the resolution of the mass spectrometer by narrowing the mass window being monitored. Alternatively, MS/MS can be used to avoid chemical interference (see Chapter 1). [Pg.26]

Integrins, selectins, cadherins, claudins and other cell adhesion molecules are involved in the interaction of cells with other cells or with extracellular matrix components. Some of them also serve as receptors by inducing outside-in or additional inside-out signaling. [Pg.340]

Integrins constitute a large family of a (3 heterodimeric cell surface, transmembrane proteins that interact with a large number of extracellular matrix components through a metal ion-dependent interaction. The term integrin reflects their function in integrating cell adhesion and migration with the cystoskeleton. [Pg.638]

It is possible to form a matrix from the column vectors b. If this were done by putting the matrix components bi equal to b) the matrix equation resulting from (7-55) would have an unsymmetric form but if we put... [Pg.411]

Furthermore, there is the problem that the signal level to whieh one extrapolates need not necessarily be y = 0 if there is any interference by a matrix component, one would have to extrapolate to a level y > 0. This uncertainty can only be cleared if the standard addition line perfectly coincides with the calibration line obtained for the pure analyte in absence of the matrix, i.e. same slope and 100% recovery, see also Figure 3.2. This problem is extensively treated in Refs. 97-101. A modification is presented in Ref. 102. [Pg.121]

Matrix Components The term matrix component refers to the constituents in the material aside from those being determined, which are denoted as analyte. Clearly, what is a matrix component to one analyst may be an analyte to another. Thus, in one hand for the case of analyses for elemental content, components such as dietary fibre, ash, protein, fat, and carbohydrate are classified as matrix components and are used to define the nature of the material. On the other hand, reference values are required to monitor the quality of determinations of these nutritionally significant matrix components. Hence, there is a challenging immediate need for certified values for dietary fibre, ash, protein, fat, and carbohydrate. Concomitantly, these values must be accompanied by scientifically sound definitions (e.g. total soluble dietary fibre, total sulpha-ted ash, total unsaturated fat, polyunsaturated fat, individual lipids, simple sugars, and complex carbohydrates). [Pg.287]

Figure 1 Example of a sample chromatogram with the analyte peak (11) eluting at 18.23 min, solvent peaks (1-3), matrix component peaks (4, 7-10, 12), and instrumental noise (5, 6,13)...

It is important to note that the matrix effects, interferences, and variability in method efficiency are to be factored in when determining the MDL. If this was not done then only the background noise (see Figure 2, peak 13) would be considered in the definition of the MDL. In real-life samples there is a good possibility that matrix component peaks would either co-elute or elute at retention times close to... [Pg.67]

The effect of co-extracted matrix components on the analyte response in the final determination step should be assessed. Normally, this is done by comparing the response of standards in solvent with matrix-matched standards, i.e., standards prepared in the extract of a control sample without residues. Because matrix effects tend to be inconsistent, the guidelines propose the general use of matrix-matched calibration unless it is demonstrated to be unnecessary. [Pg.120]

Another subset of SPE is immunoaffinity extraction, in which an antibody specific to the analyte is incorporated into the SPE sorbent. This technique is very selective to the analyte and would be very effective in separating the marker residue from tissue-related matrix components. Disadvantages of immunoaffinity extraction are the need to develop a specific antibody-based SPE for each analyte. This approach holds promise for the future as the development of antibody-based methods becomes more commonplace. [Pg.309]

Until this point, the sample preparation techniques under discussion have relied upon differences in polarity to separate the analyte and the sample matrix in contrast, ultraflltration and on-line dialysis rely upon differences in molecular size between the analyte and matrix components to effect a separation. In ultrafiltration, a centrifugal force is applied across a membrane filter which has a molecular weight cut-off intended to isolate the analyte from larger matrix components. Furusawa incorporated an ultrafiltration step into his separation of sulfadimethoxine from chicken tissue extracts. Some cleanup of the sample extract may be necessary prior to ultrafiltration, or the ultrafiltration membranes can become clogged and ineffective. Also, one must ensure that the choice of membrane filter for ultrafiltration is appropriate in terms of both the molecular weight cut-off and compatibility with the extraction solvent used. [Pg.310]

On-line dialysis also separates the analyte from tissue matrix based upon molecular size, but in this case, the sample extract is passed over a membrane filter through which the analyte (and other low molecular weight compounds) is diffused into a second solvent on the other side of the membrane filter. Usually, the second solvent is then concentrated on to an SPE column to minimize the dilution effect that is caused by the dialysis process. Agasoester used on-line dialysis to separate oxytetracycline from muscle, liver, milk, and egg tissue matrix components. A problem encountered with on-line dialysis is the inability of analyte molecules that are bound to proteins in the sample extract to pass through the membrane filter. Problems with membrane clogging are reduced with on-line dialysis compared with ultrafiltration because no external force is being applied to bring the analyte across the membrane filter. [Pg.310]
