Nano-sized ZnO particles of specific morphology were synthesized using the plant leaf extracts of Aloe vera. In modern science Nanotechnology is an ablaze field for the researchers. Nanoparticles having a size of 1-100 nm in one dimension are used significantly concerning medical chemistry, atomic physics and all other known fields. Nanoparticles are used immensely due to its small size, orient...

In the present data article, fluoride concentration levels of drinking water (with spring or groundwater sources) in 10 villages of Asara area located in Alborz province were determined by the standard SPADNS method using a spectrophotometer (DR/2000 Spectrophotometer, USA). Daily fluoride intakes were also calculated based on daily drinking water consumption. The fluoride content were compared...

A procedure is described for the simultaneous, automatic determination of serum calcium and magnesium with the AutoAnalyzer, and a dualchannel, double-beam atomic absorption spectrophotometer, the IL Model 153. Advantages over existing procedures include a high rate of analysis (90 samples or 180tests per hour) and low sample consumption (a total of 30 l for both determinations). We have compar...

The UV-visible diode array spectrophotometer is a work-horse instrument for many laboratories. This article provides simple data acquisition and control routines in Microsoft QuickBasic for a HP-8452A diode array spectrophotometer interfaced to an IBM PC/XT/AT, or compatible, microcomputer. These allow capture of full spectra and measure absorbance at one or several wavelengths at preset time i...

The whiteness of cooked rice and rice cakes was evaluated using a portable spectrophotometer with a whiteness index (WI). Also, by using boiled rice for measurement of Mido values by Mido Meter, it was possible to infer the whiteness of cooked rice without rice cooking. In the analysis of varietal differences of cooked rice, 'Tsuyahime', 'Koshihikari' and 'Koshinokaori' showed high whiteness, w...

statement of problem: acrylic teeth of dentures are prone to discoloration due to frequent exposure to different colouring solutions in the oral environment. thus, in order to maintain their aesthetic appearance, they must possess high colour stability while exposed to colorant solutions. objectives: to compare the colour stability of three different brands of acrylic teeth following immersion ...

Human skin color shows variations throughout life and influenced by various factors such as race, sex, age and hormones. Since the development of spectrophotometer, many studies on human skin color have been done. However, few studies have been carried out to measure the skin color of neonatal infants. The aim of our study was to assess the variations in skin color according to site, gestationa...

The complexive abilities of 5,11,17-tddert-butyl-23 amino-25.26,27,28-tet3propoxy-calix[4]arere and5,1127-tri-amino-23 acelyktert-butylamide-25,26,27,28-tetrabutoxy-calixplarene towards alkali metalions Lit Nat, Kt RIC and Cs+ in methanol-chloroform mixture have been evaluated at 25 °C, using UVVis spectrophotometric techniques. The results showed that the hgands are capable to complex with all...

multiple sclerosis (ms) is an inflammatory demyelinating disease which the exact etiology is still are far to be clear. reasons for this autoimmune disease are unknown origin. the aim of present study was to evaluate serum levels of selenium in patient with ms compare to healthy subjects. a total of 46 subjects were enrolled in the study, sera of 23 ms cases and 23 healthy normal cohorts as con...
