A method is reported for the determination of diphenylamine and butylated hydroxytoluene in mineral and synthetic oil. The procedure used differential pulse voltammetry with a glassy carbon electrode. This method was then used for determining these antioxidants in supporting electrolyte consisting of dilute sulfuric acid and sodium dodecyl sulfonate in ethanol. Anodic peaks were obtained for bo...

objective(s): comparative in vivo studies were carried out to determine the adsorption characteristics of amitriptyline (amt) on activated charcoal (ac) and sodium polystyrene sulfonate (sps). ac has been long used as gastric decontamination agent for tricyclic antidepressants and sps has showed to be highly effective on in-vitro drugs adsorption. materials and methods: sprague-dawley male rats...

This study was designed to investigate the effect of two surfactants, dodecyl benzyl sulfonate (DBS), sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), and of a domestic detergent (Y) on the AChE activity of the crustacean cladoceran Daphnia magna. All the chemicals significantly inhibit the activity of the enzyme, both in vitro and in vivo conditions. In vitro lowest observed effect concentration (LOEC) values ra...

A new bio-inspired method was applied in this study to simultaneously improve the monovalent anion selectivity and antifouling properties of anion exchange membranes (AEMs). Three-layer architecture was developed by deposition of polydopamine (PDA) and electro-deposition of N-O-sulfonic acid benzyl chitosan (NSBC). The innermost and outermost layers were PDA with different deposition time. The ...

ont matter & 2012 n.2012.02.009 thors. : wei-mingdeng@f .edu (G. Cao). Abstract Wulff-shaped and nanorod-like nanoporous mesocrystals constructed from ultrathin rutile TiO2 nanowires were successfully fabricated for the first time in the presence of the surfactant sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate (SDBS). SDBS played a key role in the homoepitaxial selfassembly process, in which titanate nanowir...

A simple spectrophotometric method is described for resolving binary mixtures of some food dyes: Amaranth, Brilliant Blue, Sunset Yellow and Tartrazine, using the first-derivative spectra with measurements at zero-crossing wavelengths. Analytical curves are linear up to 20 mg L(-1). Standard deviations of 1.30, 2.22, 1.93 and 0.81% were obtained for synthetic binary mixtures of 2 mg L(-1) of Am...

Surfactant miscible-displacement experiments represent a conventional means of estimating air-water interfacial area (A(I)) in unsaturated porous media. However, changes in surface tension during the experiment can potentially induce unsaturated flow, thereby altering interfacial areas and violating several fundamental method assumptions, including that of steady-state flow. In this work, the m...

Surfactants are adaptable amphiphilic compounds have an especially distinctive polar hydrophilic head and non-polar tail group. The surfactant is extensively used in each walk of life such as care products, domestic cleaners, pharmaceuticals, oil recovery, food handling, nanotechnologies due to decreasing the interfacial tension,. Micellization anionic surfactants potassium dodecyl sulphate (KD...

Washing is one of the common technologies in the chlorinated organic pollution site repair, surfactant adding would help washing more chlorinated organics pollution, but it also can be dissolved in eluent with the chlorinated organic together, and increase the difficulty of the eluent treatment. In this text, three surfactants, anionic surfactant (sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, SDBS), cation...

The electrochemical oxidation of anionic surfactants (sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate, DBS) contained in simulated wastewater treated by three-dimensional electrode system with combined modified kaolin served as packed bed particle electrodes and Ti/Co/SnO(2)-Sb(2)O(3) anode was studied, the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal of pollutants in the solutions was also investigated. The results ...
