background; dithiocarbamates, the main group of fungicides, are used to control about 400 pathogens in more than 70 crops. these pesticides are widely applied to crops including potato, cereal, apple, pear and leafy vegetables throughout the world since 1960. from the late 1980s, using these fungicides has caused much debate among regulators about their long-term effects on consumers and occupa...

Biologics manufacturing requires the clearance of Host Cell Proteins (HCPs) from recombinant therapeutic protein to acceptable low levels to ensure product purity and patient safety. To ensure adequate removal, a highly sensitive method, commonly in the form of Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA), is necessary to quantify the HCPs amount in process intermediates and drug substance. We rep...

a graphene oxide-terpyridine conjugate (gotc) based colorimetric and fluorescent nano-chemosensor was synthesized. it showed high selectivity and sensitivity for fe2+ and fe3+ ions in neutral aqueous solution over other metal ions such as li+, na+, ba2+, ca2+, al3+, cd2+, co2+, cu2+, hg2+, mn2+, ni2+, pb2+, zn2+, cr3+ and ag+. in absorption spectra, upon addition of fe2+ or fe3+, the sensor dis...

Device independent color requires that all color imaging devices “speak” in CIE colorimetric terms. A color image scanner is one component of the desktop color imaging chain that needs to be colorimetric if color is to be device independent. Most commercial color scanners are not colorimetric. Instead, they are built as color densitometers, emulating commercial graphic arts scanners. There are ...

Colorimetry, 2 edition (4) contains all the definitions of colorimetric terms, discusses CIE colorimetric practice and provides many useful tables to perform colorimetric calculations. CIE Technical Committee TC 1-48 deals at the present moment with updating this publication. The update will not change anything basic in CIE colorimetry. It will mainly get the recommendations in line with the re...

A novel thiazolothiazole-based Cu(2+) colorimetric and fluorescent sensor is reported. A highly selective colorimetric change from yellow to dark green was observed among various metal ions after adding Cu(2+). Unique radical formation can engender these highly selective colorimetric and fluorescent changes.

This paper described a convenient semiquantitative method for colorimetric detection of protein with self-calibration integrated on the test strip. Hydrophilic paper was employed as microfluidic device for running colorimetric assay, tree-shaped design was developed to ensure uniform microfluidic flow for multiple branches. The approach was validated with bovine serum albumin (BSA) colorimetric...

As they have been designed to undergo colorimetric changes that are dependent on the polarity of solvents, the majority of conventional solvatochromic molecule based sensor systems inevitably display broad overlaps in their absorption and emission bands. As a result, colorimetric differentiation of solvents of similar polarity has been extremely difficult. Here we present a tailor-made colorime...

this publication uses a colorimetric method based on the absorbance spectra of dye solutions to improve on beer’s law when calculating the dye concentrations of a three-component mixture. the performance of the new method is compared with that of beer’s law evaluated at three wavelengths, and beer’s law evaluated at 16 wavelengths. colorimetric method gives the best prediction of dye concentrat...
