The conservative behaviour of fluorescein

چکیده

Failure to account for fluorescein absorbance changes with pH may be responsible for some of the apparent non-conservative behaviour of this easily detectable tracer compound. While it is possible to calculate an accurate absorptivity value for fluorescein at every pH, this calculation is not necessary if the sample pH is increased above pH 9 before measuring the absorbance. Intense sunlight degrades fluorescein quickly but even hot samples are stable if kept in the dark.

Synthesis and Applicationof New Fluorescein Analogues

In this project, new derivatives of fluorescein were synthesized using the reaction of maleic anhydride and saccharin with phenol derivatives in the presence of ZnCl2, and their structures were elucidated by UV, IR, and NMR spectroscopy. Fluorimetry studies showed that, the synthesized compounds can be utilized as fluorescent agents, and their efficiencies were dependent on pH of solution. Acco...

When Do We Feel Sorry for Others? : An Externality of Lake Use as an Example

The purpose of the study was to verify, through the use of an experimental method, the assumption that the ‘economic human’ pays more attention to the externality he/she causes as the strength of externality increases. We used a social-experiment design within an undergraduate classroom to test assumptions, using statistical method. A lakeside plant was used as an example. Our results confirmed...

A new method for Eosin preparation and examination of its absorption and emission spectra

Eosin is one of the original dyes of xanthenes derivatives. It is also one of the main derivatives of fluorescein and has brilliant fluorescence. Eosin disodium salt called "Eosin Y" is the most useful form of this compound. In common procedures, eosin is usually obtained by the action of bromine on fluorescein, which has not good yield and purity degree. In this research, it is prepared by the...

G'horoidal tumors still pose many problems for the ophthalmologist in terms of diagnosis and treatment. Present diagnostic methods, including ophthalmoscopy, fluorescein angiography,transillumination,' ultrasonography,' 7 and examination of subretinal fluid,do not always reveal the nature of the tumor, resulting in unnecessary enucleations in a small percentage of cases." Conservative treatment...

pH Dependence and Unsuitability of Fluorescein Dye as a Tracer for Pesticide Mobility Studies in Acid Soil

The mobility of fluorescein and bromide used as tracers in packed soil columns was investigated. Five different soils were used in two application methods: soil surface application and soil incorporation, both of which simulate accepted methods of soil application of termiticides to prevent structural infestation. The breakthrough of bromide and fluorescein in column eluates were measured. The ...
