Carboxyhemoglobin (HbCO) saturation in a liquid specimen collected at medicolegal autopsy was analyzed firstly by a spectrophotometric method, which was first reported by Fretwurst et al, modified by Fukui and then modified by the authors, and secondly by a carbon monoxide-total hemoglobin (CO-Total Hb) method developed by the authors. In 70 blood specimens collected from the heart or blood ves...

We report a wet-chemical method to make films by spontaneous assembly of passivated Ag nanoparticles at the organic-aqueous liquid interface. The interfacial films exhibit a blue opalescence and are characterized with transmission electron microscopy and UV-vis spectrophotometry. Measurements indicate that nanoparticles in the interfacial film can form superlattices and in some cases nanostruct...

Indigo is one of the most important dyes in the textile industry. The control of the indigo concentration in dyeing liquors and effluents is an important tool to ensure the reproducibility of the dyed fabrics and also to establish the efficiency of the wastewater treatment. In this work, three analytical methods were studied and validated with the aim to select a reliable, fast and automated me...

The isoniazid, after recrystallization from ethanol and drying over calcium chloride and then over phosphorus pentoxide, had m.p. 1700. Potentiometric titration with alkali (0.1 N-KOH), making use of the pK 10-8 (Albert, 1953) and ultraviolet spectrophotometry (at 262 m,u.), indicated a purity of 99.84%. This material was used to evaluate the published methods of iodometric titration. That cond...

Pharmaceutical preparations containing sodium fluoride as an active substance have been examined. To do it, a procedure developed previously that uses the inhibition of redox reaction in the system under investigation was employed. For determination purposes, visible range spectrophotometry and redoxometric titration enabling indirect quantitative determination of fluoride ions in preparations ...

The traditional measurement methods of 3 kinds of aluminum species and the total aluminum content in polyaluminum solutions are Al-Ferron timed complex spectrophotometry and EDTA chelatometry respectively. But eachof these methods has different deficiencies. In this paper, microwave digesting technical had be coupled with the radiate Ferron spectrophotometry to rapid mensurate the concentration...

The well-known methods for the determination of serum iron, which are based on colour reactions with bathophenanthroline disulfonate, Ferrozine® or Chromazurol B, require — even on a microscale — sample amounts between 0.1 and 1.0 nil of serum (1,2,3). These sample volumes are too large for paediatric purposes. Reduction of sample size is possible in flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry us...

Spectrophotometric examinations were performed on cerebrospinal and subdural fluids in subacute (five patients) and chronic (20 patients) subdural haematomas, with special reference to the diagnostic aid of CSF spectrophotometry. Spectrophotometric xanthochromia of haemorrhagic origin was found in all CSFs examined, while definite visible xanthochromia was observed in only 28% and the CSF was j...

This paper reports an investigation of the microwave-assisted synthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) using extract of stinky bean (Parkia speciosa Hassk) pods (BP). The formation of Ag NPs was identified by instrumental analysis consists of UV-vis spectrophotometry, Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM...
