A new polyvinyl choloride (PVC) membrane sensor for cerium (III) was prepared based on 4,13-didecyl-1,7,10,16-tetraoxa-4,13-diazacyclooctadecane (kryptofix22DD) as an ionophore. The sensor exhibites a linear concentration range of 1.0×10-6to 1.0×10-1M, with a Nernstian slope of 18.0±1.0 mV/decade, and a detection limit of 9.7×10-7M. It has a fast response time (5 s) and can be used for two mont...

Molecular imprinting techniques have reached tremendous importance in the research of new artificial recognition systems. The investigation reports the preparation of Cu (II) ion selective polymer with high specificity and selectivity by molecular imprinting approach. For this 4-vinyl pyridine was chosen as the functional monomer and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as the crosslinking ag...

this study at first level focused on definitions and descriptions of  some landfills and landfills sites all around the world and  survey on how important they are for regional governments and responsible in duty  as a very important responsibility for locals and their health. at the second level we had a look on heavy metals concentration which are by many definitions as follows: lead, nickel,...

In this study, two species of algae from two different areas impacted by acid mine drainage (AMD) were analyzed for metal ion accumulation. The two species of algae collected were Klebsormidium and Entransia. Both algal species are located in an area of high metal ion concentrations and low pH (ranging from 2.28 to 2.89). The study assessed the concentration of iron, manganese, zinc, copper and...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Widely different metal ion concentrations in blood and serum have been reported with metal-on-metal (MoM) implants. We reviewed the literature on blood and serum ion concentrations of chromium (Cr) and cobalt (Co) following various MoM hip arthroplasties. METHODS Studies were searched for in the Medline database, Embase, and the Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. ...

chelating resins based on polyacrylonitrile and diethylenetriamine (pan-dta) wereprepared through the simple reaction of polyacrylonitrile with various volume percents ofdiethylenetriamine (dta), (25, 50, 75 and 100). the prepared resins were applied to removeheavy metal ions such as cu(ii), zn(ii) and cd(ii) from aqueous solutions. the sorptionbehaviors of the resins for these metal ions were ...

activated charcol phase loaded with 2-propylpiperidine-1-carbodithioate (ppcd) were synthesized based on chemical binding and physical adsorption approaches. the stability of a chemically modified ppcd especially in concentrated hydrochloric acid which was then used as a recycling and pre-concentration reagent for further uses of activated charcol immobilized ppcd. the application of this activ...
