With the measurement of molecular absorption, the interaction of neutral red (NR) with double-stranded DNA in large excess was investigated. It was found that the interaction of NR, existing in the acidic state (HNR) at pH 4.56, with double-stranded structure DNA displays different spectral features depending on the molar ratio of HNR/DNA, R. If R>1.33, the binding process is characterized by a...
Isosorbide dinitrate (ISDN) is reduced voltammetrically at gold working electrode surface in aqueous sodium sulfite solution and produces a voltammogram with its peak current proportional to the concentration of ISDN in the range of 1.3-2340 μg ml -1 . Sodium sulfite is used as supporting electrolyte and oxygen removing agent and, therefore, no nitrogen gas purging for elimination of...
The present study proposes a new flow cell called a bundle cell for chemiluminescence analysis. The results obtained were compared with those achieved by manual and automated batch procedures and flow manifolds with different cells: an common quartz flow cell, a helix cell and the most used spiral cell. Figures of merit such as limit of detection, sensitivity, accuracy and precision for the Cr(III)...
Today the greatest hindrances to couple the continuous FI system to discrete ETAAS operations have been overcome as demonstrated by the great number of papers published in the last few years. This paper reviews 109 references to the development and expansion of the FI-ETAAS methodology. The selected FI-ETAAS systems, namely: on-line column preconcentration and separation systems; on-line knotted reactor...
Five novel 1,3-alternate calix[4]azacrown ethers having 2-picolyl, 3-picolyl, and benzyl unit on the nitrogen atom were synthesized and used as ionophores for transition metal-selective polymeric membrane electrodes. The electrode based on 2-picolyl armed 1,3-alternate calix [4] azacrown ether exhibited Nernstian response toward copper (II) ion over a concentration range (10 -4. ...
An electrokinetic flow analysis system (EKFA) using an electroosmotic pump (Peo) and a bi-directional electrostacking (BDES) unit is introduced in this paper. Large flow range, moderate carrier pressure, low performance voltage and stable flow rate, especially in μlmin -1 level, are the main specialties of the Peo. Diethanolamine, 0.5 mM, is selected as its carrier to improve the pump...
Recent research on the pathology and treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) necessitates the development of methods for analysis of dopamine (DA), an electroactive substance whose content reduces in patients with PD. The concentration variation of dopamine in an experimental Parkinsonian animal model and a treatment model was studied in this paper. For the purpose of detecting dopamine sensitively,...
Organic ligand with carboxyhydrazide functional group was immobilised on the surface of silica gel and the metal binding capacity of the ligand-embedded silica was investigated. The functional group was covalently bonded to the silica matrix through a spacer of methylene groups by sequential reactions of silica gel with dibromobutane, malonic ester and hydrazine in different media. Surface area value...
A general derivative spectrophotometric method for determination of acidity constants is developed. The method appears suitable in cases when classical spectrophotometry cannot be employed due to little differences in the absorption spectra of conjugated acid-base pairs. Based on theoretical considerations, seven variants of the method have been established and their validity was checked, determining...
A new procedure is described for the determination of NiS in a carbon paste electrode (CPE) by cathodic stripping voltammetry in pH 5 acetate. The method was developed with both synthetic NiS and millerite. A cathodic scan from +0.3 to -0.8 V with accumulation at +0.3 V for 60 s gave rise to a cathodic peak at ca. -0.5 V for NiS measurement. This cathodic peak was traced to the reduction of a sulfur-rich...
In reversed phase liquid chromatography (RPLC), using a surface tension treatment, the retention and separation of a series of d,l-dansylaminoacids were investigated with native β-cyclodextrin as a chiral stationary phase. The enantioselectivity thermodynamic parameters were determined from linear van't Hoff plots. An analysis of the experimental variations in the retention factor with different fractions...
A novel electrochemical sensor for the detection of sulfur dioxide in both gas and solution is described. The chemically modified electrode was constructed by polymerizing (4-VP), palladium and iridium oxide (PVP/Pd/IrO 2 ) onto a platinum microelectrode which exhibits excellent catalytic activity toward sulfite with an oxidation potential of +0.50 V. The SO 2 gas sensor is based on...
A sensitive and selective method for the determination of lead(II) with a 1,4-bis(prop-2'-enyloxy)-9,10-anthraquinone (AQ) modified carbon paste electrode has been developed. The method is based on non-electrolytic preconcentration via complex formation with modifier, followed by an accumulation period with a negative potential (-1.5 V), and then by a proper anodic stripping. The analytical performance...
Voltametric and coulometric methods have been used to study the electroanalytical behaviour of 3,8-difluorobenzo[c]cinnoline. The number of electrons transferred, the wave characteristics, diffusion coefficient and reversibility of the reactions have been investigated in ethyl alcohol-BR. Adsorption of the molecule on the surface of the mercury drop electrode was analyzed and this phenomena was exploited...
New chelating sorbents are prepared by 3,3',4',5,7-pentahydroxyflavone adsorption from butanol and acetone-hexane (1:4) solutions, characterized by isotherm of sorption, IR-spectroscopy and studied for pre-concentrating and sorption-spectroscopic determination of Sn(IV). The solid-phase Quercetin with satisfactory analytical characteristics was formed by adsorption from acetone-hexane (1:4) mixture...
A new bio-mimetic bulk acoustic wave (BAW) sensor for paracetamol, with a high selectivity and sensitivity, was fabricated by using the molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) as the sensing material. Non-covalent molecular imprinting polymers were synthesized simultaneously using two different functional monomers, namely the weakly basic 4-vinylpyridine (4-VP) and the acidic and hydrogen binding methacrylic...
The PB film-modified electrode was used as an amperometric detector for flow injection analysis of ascorbic acid. The modified electrode detector showed good sensitivity, stability and reproducibility. The calibration curve for ascorbic acid was linear over the concentration range from 5.0x10 -6 to 1.0x10 -3 mol l -1 with a slope of 19.9 mA mol -1 ...
The application of a multisensor system to groundwater monitoring is investigated.
