The effects of ionic ordering in DNA water solutions are studied by conductivity experiments. The conductivity measurements are performed for the solutions of DNA with KCl salt in the temperature range from 28 to 70 0C. Salt concentration vary from 0 to 2 M. The conductivity of solutions without DNA but with the same concentration of KCl salt are also performed. The results show that in case of...

The main goal of this study is to compare the effects of pH, uranium concentration, and background electrolyte (seawater and NaClO4 solution) on the speciation of uranium(VI) associated with the marine bacterium Idiomarina loihiensis MAH1. This was done at the molecular level using a multidisciplinary approach combining X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS), Time-Resolved Laser-Induced Fluorescen...

Lithium ion secondary batteries have a high voltage and a high energy density, as shown in Fig. 1, and are widely used in mobile devices such as cell phones, notebook PCs and PDAs. However, since lithium ion secondary batteries use a flammable organic liquid electrolyte, there is a risk of explosion or fire. Fire accidents can also occur due to contamination during production or from overchargi...

This contribution presents results obtained from the investigation of the DC non-pulsed diaphragm discharge generated in water solutions of organic compounds. Organic dye Direct Red 79 was selected as a typical model of an organic molecule. Influence of experimental conditions and solution properties on the dye destruction by the discharge was studied. Especially characteristics such as solutio...

cofe2o4 magnetic nano particles (mnps) were synthesized by an efficient method in aqueous medium with the particle sizes of about 20-50 nm. then, a hybrid nanocomposite of polyaniline (pani)-cofe2o4 mnps has been electrodeposited directly on a stainless steel wire by the potentiostatic method. microscopic images of electrodeposited pani and pani-cofe2o4 nanocomposite coatings were obtained by s...

electrosynthesis process has been used for preparation of zinc sulfide nanoparticles. zinc sulfide nanoparticles in different size and shapes were electrodeposited by electrolysis of zinc plate as anode in sodium sulfide solution. effects of several reaction variables, such as electrolysis voltage, sulfide ion concentration as reactant, stirring rate of electrolyte solution and temperature on p...

field ion microscopy (fim) and scanning tunneling microscopy (stm) have found a wide application in nanotechnology. these microscopes use a metallic nanotip for image acquisition. resolution of fim and stm images depends largely on the radius of nanotip apex; the smaller the radius the higher the resolution. in this research, for tungsten nanotip fabrication, electrochemical etching of tungsten...

The molecular distribution of the cyanine dye (5-chloro-2-[3-[5-chloro-3-(4-sulfobutyl)-2(3H)benzothiazolylidine]-1-propenyl]-3-(4-sulfobutyl)-benzothiazolium hydroxide triethylamine salt, NK-3796) in aqueous solution was investigated using absorption and emission spectroscopy. Dimers of the dye are formed in concentrated solutions, while monomers dominate more diluted solutions. J aggregates a...

P olyethylene Glycol-Electrolyte Lavage Solution (PEG-ELS), “Golytely,” has been available since the early 1980s. Davis et al, developed it as a safer alternative for traditional bowel cleansing using balanced electrolyte solution. It provides rapid cleansing of the bowel with only minimal transmucosal movement of water or sodium (1). Polyethylene Glycol (PEG) is a linear polymer made up of rep...
