The paper reports on controlled formation of microscale wrinkles and ridges on the surface of a bioelectrode via mechanical stretching to tune and optimize the electrochemical sensing performances of graphene oxide (GO) based nitrate ion sensors. The bioelectrode consists of GO nanosheets drop-coated on a gold (Au) layer with a pre-stretched elastomer substrate. Enzyme nitrate reductase is used...

An integrated enzyme-functionalized field-effect transistor (ENFET) device for the sensing of nitrate ions is described. An aminosiloxane-functionalized gate interface is modified with N-methyl-N'-(carboxyalkyl)-4,4'-bipyridinium relay units. The complex formed between nitrate reductase and the bipyridinium units on the gate surface is crosslinked with glutaric dialdehyde to yield a stable rela...

minoodasht which is located 18 km. far from the east of gonbad-kaboos, is one of the most important agricultural areas of iran. a great development in the agriculture of this area has been achieved by drilling wells, building canals, constructing the dams and also irrigation of the farms by pump. for determination of the physical and chemical characteristics of the waters from different sources...

Background: Surface water and groundwater pollution with various forms of nitrogen such as ammonium and nitrate ions is one of the main environmental risks. The major objectives of this study were to evaluate the capacity of natural zeolite (clinoptilolite) to remove NO3- and NH4+ from polluted water under both batch and column conditions. Methods: The laboratory batch and column experiments we...

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...

Nitrate and nitrite ions are of considerable interest, both for their widespread use in commercial and research contexts and because of their central role in the global nitrogen cycle. The chemistry of atmospheric aerosols, wherein nitrate is abundant, has been found to depend on the interfacial behavior of ionic species. The interfacial behavior of ions is determined largely by their hydration...

THE ASYMMETRIC UNIT OF THE TITLE SALT [SYSTEMATIC NAME: 2-(3,4-di-hydroxy-phen-yl)ethanaminium nitrate], C8H12NO2 (+)·NO3 (-), contains two independent cations and two independent nitrate anions. The crystal structure consists of discrete nitrate ions stacked in layers parallel to (010). These layers are linked via the dopaminium cations by O-H⋯O, N-H⋯O and weak C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming a ...

phosphoryl containing ligand tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (topo) in dichloromethane has been used as an extracting agent for tetravalent thorium and trivalent europium ions from their 1 m sodium nitrates. the equilibrium data reveal that both ions are extracted as the complexes at 1:3 metal/ligand ratio. the values of conditional extraction equilibrium constant (kex) show the superior extractive ...

As the title gabapentin complex, [Zn(4)(OH)(2)(NO(3))(2)(C(9)H(17)NO(2))(4)(H(2)O)(4)](NO(3))(4) is located about a centre of inversion, the asymmetric unit contains two disordered nitrate ions and half a complex mol-ecule. The two zinc ions have different coordination environments: one is slightly distorted octa-hedral and the other is trigonal-pyramidal. The conformation of the gabapentin mol...
