p-Nitrocalix[6]arene (CALX-N6, L) formed a 1:1 metal complex, ML, with light rare earth metal ions (M3+), such as La3+, Pr3+ and Nd3+ except Ce3+, but formed a 1:2 (M(3+):L) complex, ML2 (the charge of the complex is omitted) with heavy rare earth metal ions, such as Sm(3+)-Lu3+ including Y3+. The conditional stability constants of these 1:1 and 1:2 complexes, KML and KML2, were measured by a l...

A study was conducted to determine pigeons from the urban to performed by atomic absorption spectrophotometry with air acetylene (G.B.C. Advanta) Lead concentration was significantly higher in urban sites compared to rural site. Primary feather of pigeon and tail feather of urban sites had significantly higher lead concentration than their rural counterpart. The result of the present study show...

A method is described for measuring doxepin-related material excreted in urine. Unchanged doxepin and certain doxepin metabolites are oxidized to doxepin ketone with KMnO4. The doxepin ketone is extracted with n-hexane and quantitated by ultraviolet spectrophotometry at the absorption maximum, 266 nm. This method is fast, reproducible, and measures a greater percentage of doxepin-related materi...

The purpose of this study was to evaluate, by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), smear layer removal and quantify, by atomic absorption spectrophotometry, the amount of calcium ion present in the chelating solutions after their use. Sixteen extracted canines were instrumented using the step-back technique and were assigned to 3 groups according to the irrigating solution used: G1: 1 mL 17% EDT...
