Popis: In this work, the implementation of Bead Injection with multicommutation-based flow systems is reported. A surface renewable chemiluminescence (CL) flow sensor is presented based on the use of CL reaction of luminol with H2O2. Dowex 1 × 8 beads with immobilized luminol onto them were injected in the flow system by means of a six-port rotary valve and were accommodated into a 1 mm optical glass flow cell placed just in front of the rectangular photosensor window with the same size than the cell wall. Automatic computer-controlled manipulation of both reagents and sample solutions was undertaken using a multicommutated flow system which comprises five three-way solenoid valves, a home-made electronic interface and a Java-written software. Once the chemiluminescence signal was registered, sensing beads were automatically discarded out with a six-port rotary valve without needing to reverse or stop the flow. As a proof of concept and example, the enhancement of the chemiluminescence signal produced by Co(II) on the luminol-H2O2 reaction in alkaline medium was used for illustrating this implementation determining vitamin B12 in pharmaceutical preparations (after mineralization for releasing Co(II)). The analytical performance of the approach was satisfactory, showing a linear dynamic range from 1.7 to 50 µg L−1, a detection limit of 0.5 µg L−1, RSD (%) of 5.3%, with a sampling frequency of 11 h−1. The proposed approach was applied to different samples and the results were consistent with those obtained with a reference method based on ICP-MS. Based on the same reaction (or re-configuring the system to accommodate it to reaction requirements) the approach can also be applied to the determination of other metal ions such as Cr(III) and Fe(II) and appropriately extended to molecules of bioanalytical interest based e.g. in CL immunoassays, given its versatility.
