چکیده

A short soak of protein crystals in cryosolution containing bromides or iodides leads to incorporation of these ions into the ordered solvent shell around the protein surface. The halide ions display significant anomalous signal, bromides in the vicinity of the absorption edge at 0.92 A, and iodides at longer wavelengths, e.g., provided by the copper sources. Bromides can, therefore, be used through multiwavelength anomalous diffraction or single-wavelength anomalous diffraction (SAD) techniques and iodides through SAD or multiple isomorphous replacement (MIRAS) phasing. The halide cryosoaking approach involves very little preparative effort and offers a rapid and simple way of solving novel protein crystal structures.

Determination of trace amounts of chromium ions in water and food samples using ligand-less solid phase extraction-based modified nano-boehmite(AlOOH)

Chromium is one of the hazardous pollutants in industrial effluents. In this study, a new nano-boehmite modified with sodium dodecyl sulphate is developed for preconcentration trace amounts of chromium ions as a prior step to its determination by flame atomic absorption spectrometry. We investigated the effect of various parameters on the recovery of the analyte ions, including pH of sample solut...

Selective Binding of Cyclic Nanopeptide with Halides and Ion Pairs; a DFT-D3 Study

In this article, theoretical studies on the selective complexation of the halide ions (F¯, Cl¯ and Br¯) and ion pairs (Na+F¯, Na+Cl¯ and Na+Br¯) with the cyclic nano-hexapeptide (CP) composed of L-proline have been performed in the gas phase. In order to calculate the dispersion interaction energies of the CP and ions, DFT-D3 calculations at the M05-2X-D3/6-31G(d) level was employed. Based on t...

Determination of halide impurities in ionic liquids by total reflection X-ray fluorescence spectrometry.

The determination and quantification of halide impurities in ionic liquids is highly important because halide ions can significantly influence the chemical and physical properties of ionic liquids. The use of impure ionic liquids in fundamental studies on solvent extraction or catalytic reactions can lead to incorrect experimental data. The detection of halide ions in solution by total reflecti...

Indirect detection of halide ions via fluorescence quenching of quinine sulfate in microcolumn ion chromatography.

Halide ions could be visualized via fluorescence quenching in microcolumn ion chromatography. The fluorescence of quinine sulfate, which was contained in an acidic eluent, was quenched by halide ions. The observed fluorescence quenching values increased in this order: iodide, bromide, and chloride. The present detection system was relatively sensitive to halide ions except for fluoride: other a...
