two capillary zone electrophoresis (cze) methods were developed in this study, one using an acidic buffer (sodium citrate ph = 2.5) and the other using a basic buffer (sodium tetraborate ph = 9.8). the two methods were compared on the basis of repeatability and reproducibility of results and the cze method developed with the basic buffer was then selected for further studies. the method was ful...

In this study, solid state fermentation (SSF) was carried out to produce single cell protein (SCP) from sugarcane bagasse using Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The SSF experiment were performed in a tray bioreactor. The influence of several parameters including extraction buffer, initial moisture content of substrate, fermentation time, relative humidity in bioreactor, the bioreactor temperature and ...

We give an O(log log k)-competitive randomized online algorithm for reordering buffer management, where k is the buffer size. Our bound matches the lower bound of Adamaszek et al. (STOC 2011). Our algorithm has two stages which are executed online in parallel. The first stage computes deterministically a feasible fractional solution to an LP relaxation for reordering buffer management. The seco...

Methylmercury is one of the most typical environmental pollutants, and many studies on its toxicity and metabolism have been performed. A methylmercury solution prepared for experiments generally contains a trace amount of inorganic mercury. To obtain accurate experimental results an inorganic mercury-free methylmercury preparation should be employed for toxicological studies, because behavior ...

Rate and activation parameters for the complex-formation reaction of Ni(2+) with 4-(2-pyridylazo)-N,N-dimethyl aniline (PADA) were studied as a function of pH in different buffers in both aqueous and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micelle solutions. In aqueous Tris buffer solution, the forward and backward rate constants increased with increasing pH, while the complex-formation constant decreased...

In this work a rapid and selective procedure for separation and preconcentration of lead(Pb2+) before determination by electrothermal atomic absorption spectrometry (ETAAS) wasdeveloped. The procedure is based on the electrodeposition on a graphite probe modified withpalladium. The lead was deposited from acetate buffer solution at pH 5.5. Various parameters,such as pH of solutions, deposition ...

A simple, rapid, and precise dynamic coating capillary electrophoretic separation method for water-soluble humic substances is proposed. An aqueous solution containing hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC), polyethylene glycol (PEG), and pH buffer component was employed for both the dynamic coating agent and the separation medium. The procedure for the coating of the capillary inner wall was simply fill...

Non-standard applications (such as CAD/CAM etc.) require new concepts and implementation techniques at each layer of an appropriate database management system. The buffer manager, for example, should support either different page sizes, set-oriented operations on pages, or both in order to deal with large objects in an efficient way. However, implementing different page sizes causes some new bu...

A tris-borate buffer solution of = 0.1 and pH 8.9 is shown to be satisfactory for use in the elect-rophoresis of human and bovine sera by the moving-boundary technic. Comparison of the patterns obtained by the use of tris-borate and barbital buffer is presented. Similar numbers of electrophoretically distinct components are found by the use of either buffer. Although the calculated mobility of ...
