An increase in the fluorescence intensity and a shift in the position of the fluorescence maximum with increasing hydrophobicity of reagents and ionic surfactants have been shown. The analytical signal of the surfactant is further amplified in the proximity of the charge values of the reagent and the counterion of the surfactant. The non-monotonic nature of the hydrophobicity effect of cationic surfactants on their analytical signal in the system has been shown. The observed effects are explained by the realization of charge and hydrophobic matching in the interaction of surfactants with the fluorescent reagents. The obtained effects are significant in the design of fluorescent systems for the determination and study of surfactant micelles. Conditions for detecting the content of cetylpyridinium chloride by reaction with eosin Y and sodium tetradecyl sulfate by reaction with rhodamine 6G in the presence of Triton X-100 were proposed. The methods have been tested in detecting the content of the ionic surfactants in pharmaceuticals.","PeriodicalId":18626,"journal":{"name":"Methods and Objects of Chemical Analysis","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67435600","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The relationship between the analyte content and the UV-vis spectrum (or RGB values) change of each sensor is provided using a chemometric tool: the Partial Least Squares regression (PLS).

It is established that in the case of the study of solutions prepared in a dissolution medium of 0.1 M hydrochloric acid solution pH 1.2, there is a need to preneutralize hydrochloric acid before analysis, because it, as stronger than formic acid, almost completely ionizes all dissolved molecules, which leads to a significant deviation of the linear dependence of the analytical signal on the concentration of the analyte. Neutralization is performed with 0.1 M sodium hydroxide solution, which is added to the sample of the test solution.
