On the basis of in situ MAS NMR technique under flow conditions,1-4 the combined in situ MAS NMR-UV/Vis spectroscopy5 has recently been developed to obtain complimentary information on solid catalysts and, therefore, to better elucidate the mechanism involved in heterogeneous catalysis. While NMR spectroscopy allows the identification of species on the working catalyst in more detail, UV/Vis sp...

UNLABELLED Pure zinc oxide and zinc oxide/barium carbonate nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs and ZB-NPs) were synthesized by the sol-gel method. The prepared powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis), Auger spectroscopy, and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The XRD result showed that the ZnO and BaCO3 nanocrystals grow independently. The Auger spectroscopy ...

Building cost-effective models is of academic and practical value for fast measurement of soil properties, especially at a farm-scale. The aim of this study is to build quantitative models for soil total nitrogen (TN) and total carbon (TC) using visible and near infrared (VIS-NIR) spectroscopy. Dried samples (n=122) collected from an experimental farm, at Silsoe, Bedfordshire, United Kingdom, w...

In this manuscript we explore the feasibility of using LWUV-VIS-SWNIR (340 1100 nm) spectroscopy to classify Saccharomyces cerevisiae colony structures in YP agar and YPD agar, under different growth conditions, such as: i) no alcohol; ii) 1 % (v/v) Ethanol; iii) 1 % (v/v) 1-Propanol; iv) 1 % (v/v) 1butanol; v) 1 % (v/v) Isopropanol; vi) 1 % (v/v) (±)-1-Phenylethanol; vii) 1 % (v/v) Isoamyl alc...

Graphene oxide (GO) thin films were simply deposited on fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate via a low-voltage electrodeposition. The GO and GO thin films were characterized by Zeta Potential, X-ray diffraction, Ultraviolet-Visible spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectrosc...

Three azo group-containing Schiff base ligands, namely 1-{3-[(3-hydroxypropylimino) methyl]-4-hydroxyphenylazo}-4-nitrobenzene (2a), 1-{3-[(3-hydroxypropylimino) methyl]-4-hydroxyphenylazo}-2-chloro-4-nitrobenzene (2b) and 1-{3-[(3-hydroxypropylimino) methyl]-4-hydroxyphenylazo}-4-chloro-3-nitrobenzene (2c) were prepared. The ligands were characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR spectroscopy, ...

in this study at first , an azo dye, 2,7- naphthalenediol, 2-[(4-bromophenyl)azo (bpand) as a ligand has been synthesized by addition of p-bromoaniline to the modified montomorillonite k10 clay. this ligand was characterized using 1h-nmr, uv-vis and ir spectroscopies. subsequently, its interaction with calf thymus deoxyribonucleicacid ,ct-dna was investigated in 5 mm phosphate buffer solution, ...

abstract: camel milk contains sufficient levels of insulin and does not form the coagulum in the stomach preventing degradation of insulin and act as an effective vehicle to take the milk insulin unchanged to the intestine. in present study direct spectroscopy and standard addition method, well-known methods in analytical chemistry were used for determining insulin concentration in camel milk. ...
