Palacky University in Olomouc Faculty of Science Department of Anlalytical Chemistry 18.05.2012 by V.Pauk Identification of Historical Colourants by Mass Spectrometry VolodymyrPauk under the supervision of prof. Lemr Olomouc 2012 Ref. [1]
Outline 1. Introduction 2. Experimental 3. Results 4. Conclusion 18.05.2012 by V.Pauk
Introduction • 1. Identification of colourants: • restoration • evaluation • approximate dating • 2. ‘The Legend’ 18.05.2012 by V.Pauk a b c Partial views of ‘Crucifixion’, St. Šebestian church on St. Hill in Mikulov Ref. [2]
Introduction 3. Prussian Blue vs Indigo 18.05.2012 by V.Pauk Prussian blue Indigo • dark-blue shade • small shaped particles • high tinting strength • highly insoluble in water and organic solvents Synthetic,18th century, Berlin 18th – 19th century Natural, plant origin Antique times – 19th century (replaced by synthetic dye) Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3 Iron (III) hexacyanoferrate (II) Indigotine Ref. [3, 4, 5]
Experimental • Equipment: • Micromass Q-TOF Premier, Z-spray ESI source, negative mode; • Acquity UPLC system; Elma S40H ultrasound bath, 0.45 µm filters. • Sample preparation: • Eq. 1 Fe4[Fe(CN)6]3 + NaOH → Fe(OH)3↓ + Na4[Fe(CN)6] • Eq. 2 • Data acquisition and processing: • m/z 133.95 (Prussian blue), m/z 263.08 (indigotin), • Mass lynx v. 4.0 (Waters Laboratory Informatics) • QC Expert v. 3.2 (TriloByte LTD.) 18.05.2012 by V.Pauk
Results 18.05.2012 by V.Pauk a) and b) FIA mass-chronograms of Prussian blue and indigo; curves I, II, and III respond to 100, 1000 and 5000 ng/mL , respectively; integrated peak areas for 5000 ng/mL are shown; c) MS spectrum of Prussian blue d) MS spectrum of indigo Traces of Prussian blue in samples !!! • LOD: 10 ng/mL, • 47 pg absolute • LOD: 12 ng/mL, • 59 pg absolute Linear calibration up to 5000 ng/mL
Conclusion 18.05.2012 by V.Pauk • Developed method: • successful in analysis of real samples • fast • sensitive • no chromatographic separation • Application: • Fast screening of Prussian blue and indigo in historical and art objects
