A potentiometric aptasensing assay that couples the DNA nanostructure-modified magnetic beads with a solid-contact polycation-sensitive membrane electrode for the detection of Vibrio alginolyticus is herein described. The DNA nanostructure-modified magnetic beads are used for amplification of the potential response and elimination of the interfering effect from a complex sample matrix. The soli...

The construction and general performance characteristics of three piezoelectric quartz crystal sensors responsive to the pentoxyverine are described here. This kind of non-potentiometric sensing method is based on use of ion-pair complexes of the pentoxyverine cation with three counter anions, namely, tungstophosphate, tetraphenylborate and picrolonate. The complexes were embedded in a PVC matr...

The electrochemical oxidation of iodide ion in the presence of 4-hydroxycoumarin (1) was studied using cyclic voltammetry and controlled-potential coulometry. The result indicates that the resulting iodine takes part in a halogenation reaction and reacts with 4-hydroxycoumarin (1). According to the obtained results, a new and simple coulometric titration method with potentiometric end-point det...

assembly lines are special kinds of production systems which are of great importance in the industrial production of high quantity commodities. in many practical manufacturing systems, configuration of assembly lines is fixed and designing a new line may be incurred huge amount of costs and thereby it is not desirable for practitioners. when some changes related to market demand occur, it is wo...

The protonation constant of hexamethylenetetramine (urotropine) was determined by a potentiometric and a spectrophotometric method. The calculations gave log K(HL) (concentration constants): 4.89 at mu = 0.1 and 5.05 at mu = 0.5. The temperature was 25 degrees and potassium chloride was used to adjust the ionic strength.

The aim of the present work was to study a simple colorimetric and potentiometric biosensor based on urease inhibition by Pb (II) ions for its estimation in milk samples. Urease immobilized on nylon membrane by hydrosol gel method was used as the biocomponent to demonstrate the metal effect on the enzyme activity using phenol red as the pH indicator. A lower limit detection of 38.6μm was achiev...

The stability constants and enthalpies of formation of silver (I) complexes with histidine and imidazole were determined. Two types of complexes were found: AgL and AgL+2 . The second is much more stable that is evidenced by the higher stability constants and enthalpies of formation. For the two systems, the respective constants and enthalpies are very close one to another that suggests similar...
