Diazotization of p-toluidine and coupling with 3-amino-phenol-Formaldehyde (APF) resin give oligomaric azo dye TAPF, based on 3-amino-phenol-Formaldehyde (APF) polymer. The TAPF was then treated with 5-chloro methyl-8quinolinol hydrochloride in the presence of a THF in alkaline medium (pH 9-10) at room temperature for 7 hrs. The resultant oligomaric ligand designated as azo polyphenol-formaldeh...

Metasequoia glyptostroboides Hu et Cheng is the only living species in the genus Metasequoia Miki ex Hu et Cheng (Taxodiaceae), which is well known as a "living fossil" species. In the Chinese folk medicine, the leaves and bark of M. glyptostroboides are used as antimicrobic, analgesic, and anti-inflammatory drug for dermatic diseases. This study is the first to report the free radical scavengi...

A novel chelating polymer including three different functional groups, such as amidoxime (-C(NH(2))=NOH), azo (-N=N-) and carboxylic acid (-COOH), was synthesized. The poly(acrylamidoxime-co-(1-(2-pirydylazo)-2-naphtyl-2-methacrylate)-co-methacrylicacid) (APM) polymer, prepared in three steps, was characterized by FT-IR and elemental analyses. The resin was used for solid-phase extractive separ...

The present paper deals with the synthesis, ion exchange properties and analytical applications of basic lead molybdate as a new inorganic ion-exchanger. A simplified synthesis and physicochemical properties which show that the chelating resin HQCR4 in H behaves as a weak cation exchanger. The results of rate of sorption experiments reveal that the rate of sorption is high during the initial pe...

In order to determine low levels of Cd in urine samples, we tried to remove Mo interference using ICP-MS with a dynamic reaction-cell technique, but failed due to the low sensitivity and the variance with the standards. We then performed solid-phase extraction (SPE) before the ICP-MS measurement. A commercially available chelating resin, NOBIAS PA-1, was used for SPE, and could effectively remo...

Existing yeast genomic DNA extraction methods are not ideally suited to extensive screening of colonies by PCR, due to being too lengthy, too laborious or yielding poor quality DNA and inconsistent results. We developed the GC prep method as a solution to this problem. Yeast cells from colonies or liquid cultures are lysed by vortex mixing with glass beads and then boiled in the presence of a m...

Introduction Regional anticoagulation has been introduced to avoid the complications of systemic anticoagulation. The most diffuse technique for regional anticoagulation is the infusion of citrate, which exerts its anticoagulative effect by chelating calcium, an essential factor of coagulation. Despite being a “regional” anticoagulation technique, a major fraction of the infused citrate reaches...

This paper describes the equilibrium behaviour of a wastewater resembling that produced during semiconductor and printed circuit board manufacture when contacted with a chelating ion exchange resin (Chelex-100; Bio-Rad Laboratories). Distribution coefficients (solid phase metal concentrations/soluble metal concentration) were calculated, and it was determined that the order of affinity was Cu >...
