the interactions of β-lactoglobulin ab in the presence of cationic surfactants such as cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and cetyltrimethylammonium p-toluenesulfonate have been investigated using a variety of experimental techniques such as conductivity, uv-vis spectrophotometry and fluorimetry. the conductivity of surfactants aqueous solutions with β-lactoglobulin shows that the cmc of cationic s...

In this manuscript we explore the feasibility of using LWUV-VIS-SWNIR (340 1100 nm) spectroscopy to classify Saccharomyces cerevisiae colony structures in YP agar and YPD agar, under different growth conditions, such as: i) no alcohol; ii) 1 % (v/v) Ethanol; iii) 1 % (v/v) 1-Propanol; iv) 1 % (v/v) 1butanol; v) 1 % (v/v) Isopropanol; vi) 1 % (v/v) (±)-1-Phenylethanol; vii) 1 % (v/v) Isoamyl alc...

clonidine hydrochloride is an antihypertensive agent used for migraine prophylaxis, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, menopausal flushing and tourette syndrome. the quantity of the active substance in pharmaceutical preparations must be within specific limits, in agreement with the respective label claim. therefore, the aim of this study was to establish the conditions for two spectroph...

green synthesis of nanoparticles, as fundamental building blocks of nanotechnology, has recently attracted considerable attention. silver nanoparticles have unique physiochemical, biological and environmental properties which make them useful in a wide range of applications. in the present paper we report our research results on biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles from silver precursor using m...

present study dealt the removal of cr(vi) in a tannery industry wastewater using rice husk silica powder as an adsorbent.the experimental investigations have been carried out by using rice husk silica powder for different adsorption dosage, different contact time and different ph against the initial cr(vi) concentration of 292 mg/l. the maximum percentage removal of cr(vi) in the tannery indust...

zno and zno: mn nanocrystals synthesized via reverse micelle method. the structural properties nanocrystals were investigated by xrd and transmission electron microscopy (tem). the xrd results indicate that the synthesized nanocrystals had a pure wurtzite (hexagonal phase) structure. the various optical properties of these nanocrystals such as optical band gap energy, refractive index, dielectr...

Combined low-temperature NMR/UV-vis spectroscopy (UVNMR), where optical and NMR spectra are measured in the NMR spectrometer under the same conditions, has been set up and applied to the study of H-bonded anions A··H··X(-) (AH = 1-(13)C-2-chloro-4-nitrophenol, X(-) = 15 carboxylic acid anions, 5 phenolates, Cl(-), Br(-), I(-), and BF(4)(-)). In this series, H is shifted from A to X, modeling th...

Two types of photoreceptors are found in the median ocellus of Limulus. One type is maximally sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) light, the other to green light; they are called UV and VIS cells, respectively. Biphasic receptor potentials, consisting of a small initial hyperpolarizing phase and a later slow depolarizing phase, can be recorded from both receptor types. These biphasic responses are el...
