چکیده

1. The effect of human and rabbit sera on the cataphoretic mobility of glass and quartz particles, and of paraffin oil droplets, was studied in serum dilutions (with 0.85 per cent NaCl) from 1:50 to 1:1,000,000, over a pH range of 3.6 to 9.3. 2. Under the conditions described, these various types of particles adsorbed protein partially or completely from the most dilute solution giving these particles electrokinetic properties characteristic of certain proteins, probably here those of serum albumin. 3. Quartz particles and paraffin oil droplets both have an isoelectric point between 4.7 and 4.8 in a 1:50 serum dilution. 4. The biological importance of these findings is discussed. 5. A non-polarizable electrode composed of See PDF for Structure is described for use with cataphoresis cells.

ac Electrokinetic phenomena over semiconductive surfaces: effective electric boundary conditions and their applications.

Electrokinetic boundary conditions are derived for ac electrokinetic phenomena over leaky dielectric (i.e., semiconducting) surfaces. Such boundary conditions correlate the electric potentials across a semiconductor-electrolyte interface (consisting of an electric double layer inside the electrolyte solution and a space charge layer inside the semiconductor) in an ac electric field with arbitra...

International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry Physical and Biophysical Chemistry Division* Measurement and Interpretation of Electrokinetic Phenomena

In this report, the status quo and recent progress in electrokinetics are reviewed. Practical rules are recommended for performing electrokinetic measurements and interpreting their results in terms of well-defined quantities, the most familiar being the ζ-potential or electrokinetic potential. This potential is a property of charged interfaces, and it should be independent of the technique use...

Effects of electrostatic correlations on electrokinetic phenomena.

The classical theory of electrokinetic phenomena is based on the mean-field approximation that the electric field acting on an individual ion is self-consistently determined by the local mean charge density. This paper considers situations, such as concentrated electrolytes, multivalent electrolytes, or solvent-free ionic liquids, where the mean-field approximation breaks down. A fourth-order m...

Decontamination of Clay Using Electrokinetic Phenomena

The electrokinetic phenomena is also used for decontamination and enhancement of soil–chemical interaction, apart from electro-osmotic consolidation of dewatering. In this paper, an attempt is made to decontaminate the Na contaminated clay using electro-kinetic principle for varying voltage, spacing and number of electrodes. Box type electrokinetic cell was used for this purpose. Results indica...

Electrokinetic energy conversion efficiency in nanofluidic channels.

We theoretically evaluate the prospect of using electrokinetic phenomena to convert hydrostatic energy to electrical power. An expression is derived for the energy conversion efficiency of a two-terminal fluidic device in terms of its linear electrokinetic response properties. For a slitlike nanochannel of constant surface charge density, we predict that the maximum energy conversion efficiency...

Nonlinear electrokinetic phenomena

A fundamental electrokinetic phenomenon is the electro-osmotic flow of a liquid electrolyte (solution of positive and negative ions) past a charged surface in response to a tangential electric field. Electrophoresis is the related phenomenon of motion of a colloidal particle or molecule in a background electric field, propelled by electro-osmotic flow in the opposite direction. The basic physic...
