Enzymatic activities are important to be quantified in products as enzymatic cleaners, which are used in medical and surgical devices reprocessing. Enzymatic activities are critical for the proper chemical cleaning that intends to remove solid organic dirt from inaccessible sites. The most important enzyme for this purpose is the protease, which is able to dissolve the main dirt attached to med...

Atomic Absorption Based Techniques. Atomic Fluorescence Spectroscopy. Figure 1.3 Schematic diagram showing the before (left) and after (right) the draw the sample into a nebulizer by the Bernoulli Effect where it is converted. Atomic absorption and emission spectroscopy in the ultraviolet and visible A schematic diagram of a UV-Vis spectrophotometer is shown in Figure.11. Preface Inductively co...

In a joint investigation by GSFC and STScI, the Selectable Optical Filter Assembly (SOFA) of WFPC2 was extracted and the filter wheels removed and examined for any on-orbit changes. The filters were inspected, photographed and scanned with a spectrophotometer at GSFC. The data have been analyzed at STScI with a view towards understanding how prolonged exposure to the HST space environment affec...

Vacuum evaporated crystalline films of Zinc Selenide (ZnSe) have been characterized by using optical spectroscopy (especially transmission and absorption spectra). Thin films of ZnSe have been deposited by vacuum evaporation technique on highly clean glass substrates and their optical properties such as refractive index (n), extinction coefficient (k), and energy band gap have been studied. The...

Amorphous Se40-xTe60Snx glassy alloys have been synthesized by thermal evaporation technique under high vacuum conditions (~ 10 -5 torr). The optical spectra of amorphous Se40-xTe60Snx (x = 0, 2, 4, 6, 8) thin films have been measured by a double beam UV-VIS-NIR computer controlled spectrophotometer over the range of 200-3000 nm. Swanepole technique has been used to calculate the optical consta...

The present work deals with comparison of microwave assisted extraction to that of conventional solvent extraction for the extraction of rice bran oil (RBO); focusing on extraction yield and oil composition. Microwave assisted extraction act as a green process over other method and proved that it is effective method for extraction of oil. The investigation also focuses on the study of functiona...

A quantitative spot-test for the determination of metformin in pharmaceutical preparations using diffuse UV-visible reflectance is reported. The procedure is quite simple, involving in the formation of a metformin-nickel(II) complex on a glass filter membrane with a later measurement of the reflectance in the spectrophotometer using an integration sphere. The analytical results obtained with co...

BACKGROUND Sunglasses users may only be assured on their ultraviolet protection by purchasing certified products, however they are not able to check if sunglasses are still ultraviolet (UV) protected as they age, unless they resort themselves to a professional who is qualified for using a spectrophotometer and is acknowledged on the standards for providing a report for the user. Current literat...
