ABSTRACT High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Methods For ABSTRACT High-Performance Liquid Chromatographic Methods for Quantitative Assessment of Degradation Products and Extractives in Pretreated Lignocellulose Shou-Feng Chen, Ph.D. Mentor: C. Kevin Chambliss, Ph.D. Long-term economic, national security, and environmental concerns have motivated research into renewable fuels from lignocellulosic biomass. Among energy alternatives, biomass-derived ethanol represents one of the more promising commodities for long-term sustainability of transportation fuels. Herbaceous agricultural residues, such as corn stover, represent a major source of lignocellulosic material with considerable potential for use in biomass-to-ethanol schemes. Currently, the technology for conversion of biomass to ethanol involves dilute acid pretreatment of lignocellulosic materials, followed by enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose and fermentation of monomeric sugars to produce ethanol. However, a variety of degradation products are produced during dilute acid pretreatment of lignocellulosic biomass, which exert an inhibitory effect on downstream fermentation processes and reduce bio-ethanol conversion. Thus there is an increased demand for reliable analytical methods to advance a better understanding of lignocellulose pretreatment. Several liquid chromatographic methods are developed for a systematic analysis of various degradation products. High-performance liquid chromatography is the most widely used analytical separation technique, because of its reproducibility, sensitivity, and suitability for separating nonvolatile species, which makes the method ideal for accurate quantitative determinations. A reversed-phase HPLC method with UV detection is developed for simultaneous separation and quantitation of organic acids and neutral degradation products present in the corn stover hydrolysate. On the other hand, inorganic ions and some organic anions, which are present in the water extractive from corn stover, are separated and quantitated by a developed ion chromatographic method with conductivity detection. Sugars and alditols are also determined using high-performance anion chromatography with pulsed amperometric detection.

Titrimetric methods were not well received by the analytical chemists of that era because they could not duplicate the accuracy and precision of a gravimetric analysis. Not surprisingly, few standard texts from the 1700s and 1800s include titrimetric methods of analysis. Precipitation gravimetry developed as an analytical method without a general theory of precipitation. An empirical relationship between a precipitate’s mass and the mass of analyte— what analytical chemists call a gravimetric factor—was determined experimentally by taking a known mass of analyte through the procedure. Today, we recognize this as an early example of an external standardization. Gravimetric factors were not calculated using the stoichiometry of a precipitation reaction because chemical formulas and atomic weights were not yet available! Unlike gravimetry, the development and acceptance of titrimetry required a deeper understanding of stoichiometry, of thermodynamics, and of chemical equilibria. By the 1900s, the accuracy and precision of titrimetric methods were comparable to that of gravimetric methods, establishing titrimetry as an accepted analytical technique. 411 412 Analytical Chemistry 2.0 9A Overview of Titrimetry We are deliberately avoiding the term In titrimetry we add a reagent, called the titrant, to a solution contain- analyte at this point in our introduction ing another reagent, called the titrand, and allow them to react.

When you step on a scale after exercising you are making, in a sense, a gravimetric determination of your mass. Mass is the most fundamental of all analytical measurements, and gravimetry is unquestionably our oldest quantitative analytical technique. The publication in 1540 of Vannoccio Biringuccio’sPirotechnia is an early example of applying gravimetry—although not yet known by this name—to the analysis of metals and ores.1 Although gravimetry no longer is the most important analytical method, it continues to find use in specialized applications. 1 Smith, C.

  • Gravimetric Analysis
    Gravimetric Analysis Gravimetric Analysis can be used to determine the percent composition of a species in a compound. This is known as quantitative analysis. An agent (precipitating agent) is chosen which will cause the species of interest to precipitate out of solution. The precipitate is then isolated and weighed. Through a series of calculations, the amount of the species in the original sample or compound can then be determined. 1. Weigh accurately about 0.5 g of the unknown, and dissolve it in water. The volume of water is not important, but you do want to make sure the solid is completely dissolved. 2. Add the precipitating agent in the form of solution. For example, to precipitate a chloride use a soluble salt of silver (AgNO3). 3. Add the precipitating agent until no more solid seems to precipitate. Allow the mixture to sit for about 5 minutes, and then add a few drops more, observing to see if any more precipitation occurs. If you see more solid forming, keep repeating the steps until no more precipitate results. Now separate the solid from the liquid. The mixture can be filtered by vacuum filtration through a weighed filter paper. Other methods involve gravity filtration or use of a centrifuge. Allow the solid to dry until you get a constant weight for readings at subsequent times (at least overnight or through use of an oven). 4. From the mass of precipitated compound (ppt) and the formula (in this case AgCl), you can calculate the percent composition of a species (in this case Cl-) in the original sample.

However, analytical chemistry, a subdiscipline of chemistry, is an ancient science and its metrological tools, basic applications, and analytical processes can be dated back to early recorded history [1]. In chronological spans covering ancient times, the middle ages, the era of the nineteenth century, and the three chemical revolutionary periods, analytical chemistry has successfully evolved from the verge of the nineteenth century to modern and contemporary times, characterized by its versatile traits and unprecedented challenges in the twenty-first century. Historically, analytical chemistry can be termed as the mother of chemistry, as the nature and the composition of materials are always needed to be iden- tified first for specific utilizations subsequently; therefore, the development of analytical chemistry has always been ahead of general chemistry [2]. During pre-Hellenistic times when chemistry did not exist as a science, various ana- lytical processes, for example, qualitative touchstone method and quantitative fire-assay or cupellation scheme have been in existence as routine quality control measures for the purpose of noble goods authentication and anti-counterfeiting practices. Because of the unavailability of archeological clues for origin tracing, the chemical balance and the weights, as stated in the earliest documents ever found, was supposed to have been used only by the Gods [3].

This study showed that the oilcake, a by-product of oil extraction, is equally valuable as it contained 38% protein/dry mass, and thraustochytrid protein isolate can be obtained with 92% protein content and recovered with 70% efficiency. The highest and lowest solubilities of proteins were observed at pH 12.0 and 4.0, respectively, the latter being its isoelectric point. Aspartic acid, glutamic acid, histidine, and arginine were the most abundant amino acids in proteins. The arginine-to-lysine ratio was higher than one, which is desired in heart-healthy foods. The denaturation temperature of proteins ranged from 167.8–174.5 ◦C, indicating its high thermal stability. Proteins also showed high emulsion activity (784.1 m2/g) and emulsion stability (209.9 min) indices. The extracted omega-3-rich oil melted in the range of 30–34.6 ◦C and remained stable up to 163–213 ◦C.
