anodic stripping voltammetric determination of pb, cd, zn and cu in blood samples of 132 children was developed. the children's ages range was between 6 months and 6 years and the samples were collected from different areas of ibb governorate (yemen). we used anodic stripping voltammetry for analyzing and determination of cited metals in the blood of all children. large variation in the re...

Corrosion fatigue (CF) tests were carried out on bulk glassy Zr52.5Cu17.9Al10Ni14.6Ti5 (Vitreloy 105) samples under load-controlled three-point bending conditions with a load ratio of R = 0.1 in 0.01 M Na2SO4 + 0.01 M NaCl electrolyte. During cyclic testing, the bar-shaped specimens were polarized in situ at constant potentials and the current was monitored. Three different anodic potentials wi...

The neurotransmitter dopamine is heavily implicated in intracranial self-stimulation (ICSS). Many drugs of abuse that affect ICSS behavior target the dopaminergic system, and optogenetic activation of dopamine neurons is sufficient to support self-stimulation. However, the patterns of phasic dopamine release during ICSS remain unclear. Early ICSS studies using fast-scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV...

The bio- and hemocompatibility of titanium alloys are due to the formation of a TiO2 layer. This natural oxide may have fissures which are detrimental to its properties. Anodic oxidation is used to obtain thicker films. By means of this technique, at low voltages oxidation, amorphous and low roughness coatings are obtained, while, above a certain voltage, crystalline and porous coatings are obt...

OBJECTIVES To research the crystal structure and surface morphology of anodic films on titanium metal in different electrolytes under various electrochemical conditions and investigate the effect of the crystal structure of the oxide films on apatite-forming ability in simulated body fluid (SBF). METHODS Titanium oxide films were prepared using an anodic oxidation method on the surface of tit...

Increased activities of peroxidase and indole 3-acetic acid (IAA) oxidase were detected on root surfaces of bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) seedlings colonized with a soil saprophytic bacterium, Pseudomonas putida. IAA oxidase activity increased over 250-fold and peroxidase 8-fold. Enhancement was greater for 6-day-old than for 4- or 8-day-old inoculated plants No IAA oxidase or peroxidase activities...

A surplus of glycerol production due to several reasons has initiated investigation of several routes of oxidative glycerol upgrading. Among the reaction products are substances such as dihydroxyacetone and several acids from oxidative upgrading of glycerol. Several routes of chemical oxidation and electrochemical oxidation have been published in literature. The ongoing project has focused on t...

Purpose: The aim of the work is presents the influence of casting method and anodic treatment parameters on properties, thickness and structure of an anodic layer formed on aluminium casting alloys. Design/methodology/approach: Investigations were carried out on the laser profile measurement gauge MicroProf from company FRT, abrasive wear test was made with using ABR-8251 equipment delivered by...

T?xtile wastewater contains a variety of contaminants that are known to be hazardous. Synthetic dyes one the hazardous pollutants in textile industry resistant photo/bio d?gradation. They cannot d?stroyed under conventional treatment. This document presents review on electrochemical treatment wast?water containing synthetic organic by anodic oxidation for environmental protection. The mechanism...

A study on the chemical stability of anodic alumina membranes and their performance in long-term water and organic solvent permeation experiments is reported. Anodic alumina possesses high stability for both protonic and aprotonic organic solvents. However, serious degradation of the membrane occurs in pure water, leading to a drastic decrease of permeance (over 20% of the initial value after t...
