Transient isotachophoresis-capillary zone electrophoresis with artificial seawater as the background electrolyte (BGE) was improved to further lower the limit of detection (LOD) for determination of nitrite and nitrate in seawater. By lowering the pH of BGE, the difference between effective mobility of nitrite and that of nitrate increased, thereby permitting increased sample volumes to be tole...

The ingested nitrates sourced from tap water, food, chemicals and pharmaceuticals are converted to nitrites in the body surfaces by bacteria and then, the nitrite ions can lead the structural changing in hemoglobin. In the present work, aggregation of the purified hemoglobin in adult (HbA) and in fetus or newborn (HbF) in the presence of nitrite ions were studied. Hemoglobin aggregation was per...

The nitrite ® nitro isomerization in nitritopentaamine cobalt (III) halides has been known. In this paper, the effect of the size of the counter ions (noncoordinated groups) on the rate of isomerization in nitritopentaamine cobalt (III) halides, is reported. The rate of isomerization is decreased by increasing the size of the counter ions. This decrease is explained on the...

In static experiments, we studied the effects of nitrate and nitrite solutions on newly hatched larvae of five species of amphibians, namely Rana pretiosa, Rana aurora, Bufo boreas, Hyla regilla, and Ambystoma gracile. When nitrate or nitrite ions were added to the water, some larvae of some species reduced feeding activity, swam less vigorously, showed disequilibrium and paralysis, suffered ab...

Terbium ions were installed on nodes of a two-dimensional Zr-based MOF, and the material was applied for photoluminescence nitrite detection.

The concept of amplitude-modulated multiplexed flow analysis has been extended to the simultaneous determination of multiple analytes in a sample. A sample solution containing nitrite and nitrate ions is delivered from two channels, but the flow rates are varied at different frequencies. One of the channels has a reduction column for converting nitrate ions to nitrite ions. Downstream, the abso...

The radiolytic decomposition of oxytetracycline and effects of inorganic ions were studied. The removal efficiency of oxytetracycline , 30 mg/L, was 99% at the irradiation dose of 0.7 kGy. Chloride , sulfate , nitrite , nitrate and phosphate had effects on oxytetracycline degradation. Especially , nitrite and nitrate showed the significant inhibition effect on the radiolytic degradation of oxyt...
