The determination of total iron in pharmaceutical products and natural waters as Fe(II) using a sequential injection system was investigated. A cadmium reductor consisting of cadmium granules was used to reduce Fe (III) to Fe (II). The Fe (II) was then determined (by its reaction with 1,10 Phenanthroline ) as a [Fe(phen)3 ] complex at 515 nm with a UV/Vis spectrophotometer. The linear range of ...

Natural dye extracted from Caesalpinia sappan Linn. was applied to a cotton fabric and silk yarn by dyeing process. The dyestuff component of Caesalpinia sappan Linn. was extracted using water and ethanol. Analytical studies such as UV–VIS spectrophotometry and gravimetric analysis were performed on the extracts. Brazilein, the major dyestuff component of Caesalpinia sappan Linn. was confirmed ...

A novel nanocomposite ZnFe(2)O(4)-TiO(2)/MCM-41 (ZTM) was synthesized by a sol-gel method and characterized through X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), N(2) adsorption-desorption, Raman spectroscopy, and ultraviolet visible (UV-vis) spectrophotometry. The results confirmed the incorporation of ZnFe(2)O(4)-TiO(2) nanoparticles inside the pores of th...

in this study, silver nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical reduction method at different concentrations of ag colloid in the range of 500-16000 ppm. nanoparticles were deposited by spin coating method on pre-etched glass and si substrates. structural, optical and electrical properties of the samples were studied using scanning electron microscopy equipped with edax, uv-vis spectrophotomet...

Introduction: Selaginella species have been used widely for the treatment of inflammatory diseases, diabetes and cancer. In this study, the contents of the total flavonoids and amentoflavone in five Selaginella plant drugs [Selaginella moellendorffii Hieron. (SM), Selaginella delicatula (Desv.) Alston (SD), Selaginella uncinata (Desv.) Spring (SU), Selaginella heterostachys Baker (SH) and Selag...

In the present study, a simple and efficient extraction method based on dispersive liquid-liquid microextraction prior to UV-Vis spectrophotometry was developed for the preconcentration and determination of copper ions in environmental samples. Briefly, cupric ions (Cu II) were reduced to cuprous (Cu I) with addition of hydroxyl amine hydrochloride and formed hydrophobic chelates with neocuproi...

This study describes the fabrication of two types of multilayered coatings onto titanium by electrostatic self-assembly (ESA), using deoxyribosenucleic acid (DNA) as the anionic polyelectrolyte and poly-d-lysine (PDL) or poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) as the cationic polyelectrolyte. Both coatings were characterized using UV-vis spectrophotometry, atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray phot...
