The Chemistry of Ethylenediamine Tetra-acetic Acid in Sea Water

The effects of the chelating agent ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid on cell adhesion in the slime mould Dictyostelium discoideum.

Spectrophotometric determination of 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride by flow injection analysis.

1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC.HCl) is a very useful agent to form amide bonds (peptide bonds) in an aqueous medium. A simple and fast detection system was developed using the reaction with pyridine and ethylenediamine in acidic aqueous solution and spectrophotometric flow injection analysis. The absorbances were measured at 400 nm and the reaction was accelera...

Effect of ethylene diamine tetra acetic acid chelator in the presence of chromium on growth and some physiological characteristics of sunflower.

Chromium is a heavy metal toxic for plants that due extensive industrial applications over the last decade, has become a serious environmental pollution. On the other hand, chelator dissolution and absorption of metal by the plant increase and their use in phytoremediation is important. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different concentrations of chromium and ethylene diamine...

Ethylenediamine Functionalized Nanoporous Silica Type LUS-1 for Highly Sensitive Analysis of Pb2+ , Cd2+ and Zn2+ in Various Samples

In this work, a novel method is described for the preconcentration of Pb2+, Cd2+ and Zn2+ ions in environmental samples using uniform silanized mesopor (LUS-1) functionalized by ethylenediamine groups as a new extractant. The determination of ions is done by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The extraction time and efficiency, p...

Effect of Magnetic Field on the Liquid-liquid Equilibria of (Water + Acetic Acid + Organic Solvent) Ternary Systems

The effect of magnetic field on the liquid-liquid equilibrium of two ternary systems (water + acetic acid + butyl acetate and water + acetic acid + dimethyl succinate) at 298.15 K under atmospheric pressure was investigated. The results obtained show that the strength of the magnetic field (0.02 T) affects the solubility of acetic acid in the used organic solvents. Distribution coefficients and...
