      CBS 113, 5-7 (2014). HPTLC/AMD as a screening method to identify previously unconsidered_x000D_
      substances. HPTLC of water samples on silica gel LiChrospher in the AMD 2 with a 25-step gradient, starting in the isocratic mode with 5 steps acetonitrile – dichloromethane 1:1 for focusing, followed by 15 steps from acetonitrile – dichloromethane 1:1 to dichloromethane and then 5 steps from dichloromethane – n-hexane 4:1 to n-hexane. Final migration distance 80 mm. Detection under UV 254 nm, UV 366 nm and white light. Densitometric evaluation by absorbance measurement at 190, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280, and 300 nm. Target zones were eluted with the TLC-MS Interface offline with water – acetonitrile 1:1 and deuterium oxide – acetonitrile 1:1, respectively, each with an addition of 5 mmol/L ammonium acetate, at a flow rate of 0.2 mL/min using the oval elution head (4 x 2 mm) for analysis with a QTOF/MS. With the molecular formula information, different databases were searched and H/D exchange (replacing protons in the molecule by deuterium which leads to a mass shift in the ESI MS spectra) was used to reduce the quantity of possible structures.

      Determination of carbamate insecticides in water by C-18 solid phase extraction and quantitative HPTLC
      SH. C. McGINNIS, J. SHERMA, (Dept. Chem., Lafayette Coll., Easton, Pennsylvania 18042, USA)

      J. Liquid Chromatogr. 17, 151-156 (1994). HPTLC of N-methyl carbamate insecticides on silica; with toluene - acetone 4:1 for carbaryl, carbofuran, methiocarb; with hexane - acetone - chloroform 75:15:10 for propoxur. Detection by dipping first into KOH in methanol and then into a freshly prepared solution of 25 mg p-nitrobenzene-diazonium fluoborate in 90 mL acetone plus 10 mL of diethylene glycol. Quantification by densitometry at the wavelengths of maximum absorbance for each compound, as determined from the in-situ spectra recorded from 400-700 nm.

      Planar yeast estrogen screen with resorufin-?-D-galactopyranoside as substrate
      D. SCHICK, W. SCHWACK* (*Inst. of Food Chem., Univ. of Hohenheim, Garbenstraße 28, 70599 Stuttgart, Germany, wolfgang.schwack@uni-hohenheim.de)

      J. Chromatogr. A 1497, 155-163 (2017). Development of a planar yeast estrogen screen for the determination of estrogen active compounds. Introduction of resorufin-β-D-galactopyranoside, providing the orange fluorescing resorufin after enzymatic cleavage, as the planar yeast estrogen screen (pYES) substrate to determine estrogen active compounds (EAC). For samples containing blue fluorescent components, this substance is better suited than the generally employed substrate 4-methylumbelliferyl-β-D-galactopyranoside, which delivered blue fluorescing 4-methylumbelliferone after enzymatic cleavage by the YES reporter β-D-galactosidase. The mean LOD and LOQ was 3.5 and 6.5 pg/zone for 17β-estradiol (1) and 17α-ethinylestradiol (2), respectively; recoveries were close to 100% for (1) and (2) from spiked water samples in a concentration range of 2–20 ng/L.
