A new effervescence-assisted dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction, EA-DLLME, technique was developed for preconcentration and flame atomic absorption spectrometric determination of copper in aqueous samples. Effervescence assistance and DES combination for metal ion extraction was used for the first time. In the presented study, six different effervescence powders were examined to achieve maximum extraction efficiency. In addition, 1,5 diphenyl carbazide was used as complexing agent and DES prepared by mixing choline chloride and phenol was used as extraction solvent. The effect of several parameters such as pH, concentration of complexing agent, composition and volume of DES, amount of THF, composition and amount of effervescent agent were examined. Performed experiments showed that optimum pH was 6.0, the best effervesce powder composition was NaH2PO4:Na2CO3 with 2 × 10?3:1 × 10?3 molar ratio and the amount of effervesce powder was 0.4 g. Under optimum conditions enhancement factor, limit of detection and limit of quantification were calculated as 78, 2.9 and 9.7 μg L?1, respectively. In addition, to prove precision of the method intra-day relative standard deviations were calculated for 10 and 50 μg L?1 Cu2+ concentrations and found as 2.1% and 1.3%, respectively. The proposed method showed good linearity within the range of 10.0–100 μg L?1. Finally, proposed method was successfully applied to determination of copper traces in aqueous samples. 相似文献
A Fe3+ ion-selective membrane sensor was fabricated from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) matrix membrane containing bis-bidentate Schiff
base (BBS) as a neutral carrier, sodium tetraphenyl borate (NaTPB) as anionic excluder, and o-nitrophenyloctyl ether (NPOE) as a plasticizing solvent mediator. The effects of the membrane composition, pH, and additive
anionic influence on the response properties were investigated. The best performance was obtained with a membrane containing
32% PVC, 62.5% NPOE, 3% BBS, and 2.5% NaTPB. The electrode shows a Nernstian behavior (slope of 19.3 ± 0.6) over a very wide
iron ion concentration range (1.0 × 10−7–1.0 × 10−2 M) and has a low detection limit (7.4 × 10−8 M). The potentiometric response of the sensor is independent of pH of the solution in the pH range 1.9–5.1. The proposed
sensor has a very low response time (<15 s) and a good selectivity relative to a wide variety of other metal ions including
common alkali, alkaline earth, heavy, and transition metal ions. The electrode can be used for at least 60 days without any
considerable divergence in potentials. The proposed sensor was successfully applied as an indicator electrode for the potentiometric
titration of 1.0 × 10−2 M Fe3+ ions with a 1.0 × 10−4 M EDTA and the direct determination of Fe3+ in mineral water and wastewater samples. 相似文献

Increasing production of cocoa (Theobroma cacao L.) leads to a higher environmental burden due to its solid waste generation. Cocoa pod husk, one of the major solid wastes of cocoa production, contains rich bioactive compounds unveiling its valorization potential. With that in mind, our research aimed to explore the biological and antioxidant activities of aqueous extracts from cocoa pod husks. In this present work, cocoa pod husk was extracted using water and subsequentially partitioned using n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and methanol. The antimicrobial investigation revealed that the ethyl acetate solubles were active against the Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli, and Candida albicans, where at a 20% w/v concentration, the inhibition diameters were 6.62 ± 0.10, 6.52 ± 0.02, and 11.72 ± 0.36 mm, respectively. The extracts were found non-toxic proven by brine shrimp lethality tests against Artemia salina with LC50 scores ranging from 74.1 to 19,054.6 μg/mL. The total phenolic content and total flavonoid content were obtained in the range of 47.44 to 570.44 mg/g GAE and 1.96 to 4.34 mg/g QE, respectively. Antioxidant activities of the obtained extracts were revealed by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picryl-hydrazyl-hydrate (DPPH) assay with EC50 reached as low as 9.61 μg/mL by the ethyl acetate soluble. Phytochemical screening based on gas chromatography—mass spectroscopy analysis on the sample with the highest antioxidant activities revealed the dominant presence of three phytosterols, namely gamma-sitosterol, stigmasterol, and campesterol. 相似文献
Sugammadex, a new modified gamma cyclodextrin, reverses the neuromuscular blockage induced by rocuronium by forming a strong complex with this muscle relaxant. To evaluate possible interactions with potentially co-administered drugs, interactions between sugammadex and penicillins were investigated using the affinity capillary electrophoresis method for the first time. Capillary electrophoresis coupled to an ultra violet detector was used as an analytical device for the analysis and detection of cyclodextrin inclusion complexes. Changes in the effective mobility of guest drugs (amoxicillin, ampicillin, oxacillin, dicloxacillin and azlocillin) were correlated with the increasing concentration of host molecules in background electrolyte, and successfully fitted into a non-linear curve equation; assuming 1:1 stoichiometric interaction. The calculated association constants (Ka) were: 383.44, 184.54, 265.34 and 95.06 M−1 for amoxicillin, ampicillin, oxacillin and dicloxacillin, respectively. No complex formation with sugammadex could be detected for both penicillin G and piperacillin. The difference in the chemical structure of the penicillins, especially in the (R) side chains, is suggested to be responsible for the variety of binding strength between penicillins and sugammadex. The displacement study demonstrated that interactions between sugammadex and co-administered penicillins could reduce the pharmacological effects of both.
A synthesis of unconjugated (E)‐enediynes from allenyl amino alcohols is reported and their gold‐catalyzed cascade cycloaromatization to a broad range of enantioenriched substituted isoindolinones has been developed. Experimental and computational studies support the reaction proceeding via a dual‐gold σ,π‐activation mode, involving a key gold‐vinylidene‐ and allenyl‐gold‐containing intermediate. 相似文献
TiO2‐ZrO2 (1/1)‐surf with Ti and Zr molar ratio of 1/1 was prepared with surfactant through a sol‐gel method. The optimum experimental condition was investigated for nitration of salicylic acid. Then, a number of nitration reactions were carried out with a variety of aromatic compounds in the optimum condition. The 25 wt% H3PO4/TiO2‐ZrO2 (1/1)‐surf catalyst showed good selectivity and yield in a short time for the nitration of salicylic acid and some other aromatic compounds. 相似文献
A continuous cyclic voltammetric study of letrozole at gold microelectrode was carried out. The drug in phosphate buffer (pH 2.0) is adsorbed at ?200 mV, giving rise to change in the current of well‐defined oxidation peak of gold in the flow injection system. The proposed detection method has some of advantages, the greatest of which are as follows: first, it is no more necessary to remove oxygen from the analyte solution and second, this is a very fast and appropriate technique for determination of the drug compound in a wide variety of chromatographic analysis methods. Signal‐to‐noise ratio has significantly increased by application of discrete Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) method, background subtraction and two‐dimensional integration of the electrode response over a selected potential range and time window. Also in this work some parameters such as sweep rate, eluent pH, and accumulation time and potential were optimized. The linear concentration range was of 1.0×10?7?1.0×10?10 mol/L (r=0.9975) with a limit of detection and quantitation 0.08 nmol/L and 0.15 nmol/L, respectively. The method has the requisite accuracy, sensitivity, precision and selectivity to assay letrozol in tablets. The influences of pH of eluent, accumulation potential, sweep rate, and accumulation time on the determination of the letrozol were considered. 相似文献
The effects of Mg, La and Ca promoters on primary and secondary CO_2 and H_2O formation pathways during Fischer-Tropsch synthesis on precipitated Fe/Cu/SiO_2 catalysts are investigated. The chemisorbed oxygen atoms in the primary pathway formed in the CO dissociation steps reacted with co-adsorbed hydrogen or carbon monoxide to produce H_2O and CO_2 , respectively. The secondary pathway was the water-gas shift reaction. The results indicated that the CO_2 production led to an increase in both primary and secondary pathways, and H_2 O production
decreased when surface basicity of the catalyst increased in the order Ca >Mg >La. 相似文献
A novel and highly efficient approach for the synthesis of H2Me2bqb and H2Me2bpb using ionic liquid as an environmentally benign reaction medium has been developed, eliminating the need for the pyridine as a toxic solvent. The Ni(II) complex of the dianionic ligand Me2bqb2−, [Me2bqb2− = 1,2-bis(quinoline-2-carboxamide)-4,5-dimethyl-benzene dianion], has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses and spectroscopic methods, and the crystal and molecular structure of [Ni(Me2bqb)] (1), has been determined by X-ray crystallography. The complex exhibits distorted square-planar NiN4 coordination geometry with two short and two long Ni–N bonds (Ni–N ∼1.85 and ∼1.96 Å, respectively). The electrochemical behavior of [Ni(Me2bqb)] (1), has been studied by cyclic voltammetry and compared with the analogous complex, [Ni(Me2bpb)] (2). 相似文献
