Sn (II) Ion- Selective Membrane Electrode based on Dibenzo-18-Crown-6
We found that dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6) can be used as an ionophore to make a tin (II)-ionselectivemembrane electrode. The electrode exhibits a near Nernstian response for Sn2+ ions over aconcentration range from 1.0× 10-6 – 1.0× 10-2 M with a slope of 27.5 ± 0.6 mV per concentration decadein an acidic solution (pH=1). The limit of detection was 8.0× 10-7 M. It has a response time of < 20s an...
متن کاملPhotoinduced formation of stable Ag-nanoparticles from a ternary ligand-DNA-Ag(+) complex.
The combination of (i) the light-harvesting nature and excited-state redox reactivity of a cationic DNA intercalator, (ii) a conjugated Ag(+)-binding crown ether, and (iii) the stabilizing effect of DNA on AgNPs in one integral ternary complex enables the mild photoinduced formation of Ag nanoparticles.
متن کاملDNA Intercalators and Using Them as Anticancer Drugs
Many anticancer drugs in clinical use interact with DNA through intercalation, which is process that starts with the transfer of the intercalating molecule from an aqueous environment to the hydrophobic space between two adjacent DNA base pairs. In general, intercalatig agents are two types: monofunctional and bifunctional. Monofunctional intercalators contain one intercalating unit and Bifunct...
متن کاملEffect of Helium-Neon Laser and Sodium Hypochlorite on Calf Thymus Double-Stranded Deoxyribonucleic Acid Molecule: An in Vitro Experimental Study
Introduction: Low-energy helium-neon (He-Ne) laser beam lightis used in combination with sodium hypochlorite (Na2HOCl3) for clinical purposes. Regarding this, the present study aimed to investigate the effect of He-Ne laser (632.8 nm) and sodium hypochlorite on the calf thymus double-stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (ctdsDNA) molecule. Materials and Methods: For the purpose of the study, ctdsDNA...
متن کاملImproved Extraction-Separation of Lanthanum/ Europium Ions by Bis(2-ethylhexyl)phosphoric Acid Using 12-Crown-4 as an Ion Selective Masking Agent
The extraction-separation of lanthanum and europium ions with bis(2-ethylhexyl) phosphoric acid (DEHPA) in cyclohexane was improved by adding 12-crown-4 (12C4) to the aqueous phase as a masking agent. In the presence of this crown ether the extraction curve of lanthanum ions versus pH shifts to the higher pH region, while the curve is not influenced for the europium ions. Consequently the s...
