A novel chemical ionization source for organic mass spectrometry is introduced. This new source uses a glow discharge in the flowing afterglow mode for the generation of excited species and ions. The direct-current gas discharge is operated in helium at atmospheric pressure; typical operating voltages and currents are around 500 V and 25 mA, respectively. The species generated by this atmospher...

Retention data on an immobilised artificial membrane have been taken from the work of Li et al. and from Liu et al., and have been correlated with a set of descriptors that includes descriptors for ionized species, that is anions from deprotonated acids and cations from protonated bases. Log k(IAM) values can be predicted for acids or bases that are partially ionized at the experimental pH and ...

this study was accomplished to examine the efficiency of natural zeolite in preventing acute toxicity of total ammonia to huso huso. the study was performed using water static method in 96 hours. fish averaged 46 ? 5 g in weight and 22 ? 4 cm in total length were exposed to four different concentrations (15, 30, 50, 75 mgl-1) of ammonia and a group was considered as control. under stable condit...

Magnesium hydroxide Mg(OH)2 nanorods with diameters of 90±10nm and lengths of more than 2μms were prepared by a simple route at ~75oC in ambient air. The approach is based on reaction of magnesium powder and de-ionized water without the use of any harmful, toxic or corrosive reagents. Characterization using X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows single crystalline structure of Mg(O...

Intracellular ionized magnesium concentrations ([Mg2+]i) were measured in erythrocytes by 31P nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and zero-point titration in 14 controls and seven patients with renal magnesium loss. The mean intracellular ionized magnesium concentration in controls measured by 31P NMR was 0.20 (SD 0.03) mmol/L cell water, compared with 0.55 (SD 0.12) mmol/L cell water by zero-poin...

We present a simulation of liquid water radiolysis by swift carbon ions that explicitly takes into account multiple ionization of water molecules. For high linear energy transfer (LET), this process is not negligible with respect to single ionization. The rearrangement of highly ionized water molecules is consistent with production of atomic oxygen. Multiple ionizations is shown to be responsib...

in this article, we have calculated some thermodynamic properties for a system consisting of singy ionized 3he atoms and their corresponding removed electrons by employing the second quantization method at finite temperature. to perform the calculations, we have considered the kinetic term, and coulomb interaction between the particles in our hamiltonian. the calculated properties are free ener...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine alterations in microhardness of crown dentin and enamel, after 2 and 12-month storage in de-ionized water, 0.2% glutaraldehyde, Hanks' Balanced Salt Solution (HBSS), 0.1% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) or 0.1% thymol. MATERIALS AND METHODS Freshly extracted, nonsterile 60 intact human premolars were distributed to five groups. Six teeth from each ...

Objective(s) Herbal waters are extensively used in most parts of Iran including Mashhad. Visiting a patient with total blindness due to daily ingestion of around 200 ml of herbal water (Plant forty water) per day for six months was the rational for methanol determination in all herbal waters available in Mashhad markets. Materials and Methods A total of two hundred and nineteen bottles of he...
