Rouf, M. A. (Washington State University, Pullman). Spectrochemical analysis of inorganic elements in bacteria. J. Bacteriol. 88:1545-1549. 1964.-Quantitative spectrochemical analyses of inorganic elements in the vegetative cells of Escherichia coli, Sphaerotilus natans, Micrococcus roseus, Bacillus cereus, and the spores of B. cereus were made. The following elements were found to be present in the ash samples: B, Na, Mg, Al, Si, P, K, Ca, Ti, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Sr, S, Ag, Sn, Ba, Pb, V, and Mo. These could be divided into major, minor, and trace elements, depending on the relative amounts in the cells. Mg, P, K, and S were considered as the major elements; Ca, Fe, Zn, and, perhaps, Cu and Mn as the minor elements, and the rest as trace elements. Mg concentrations were higher in the cells of the gram-positive M. roseus and B. cereus than in the gram-negative E. coli and S. natans. The latter organism contained 2.6% Fe(2)O(3) (dry weight basis). The vegetative cells of B. cereus were higher in Mg, P, K, Na, Ag, and lower in Si, Ca, Zn, Mn, and Cu than were its spores.

Preconcentration in Inorganic Trace Analysis

Preconcentration in trace analysis lowers the detection limit, simplifies the treatment of a representatIve sample, facilitates calibration, reduces the need for various standard reference samples and frequently involves separation of the matrix in analysis of toxic, radioactive and expensive materials. In this paper, the types of preconcentration are considered and quantitative characteristics...

Universal spectrochemical series of six-coordinate octahedral metal complexes for modifying the ligand field splitting.

We studied a novel universal spectrochemical series of six-coordinated octahedral 3d transition metal complexes, which can be used for any combination of central metal atom and ligand molecules. A two dimensional spectrochemical series could be used to estimate the ligand field splitting energy of not only known compounds but also the unknown compounds. Therefore, it should be possible to contr...

Comparative study on inorganic elements of different genotypes of Rosa damascena Mill. from different provinces of Iran

Contents of inorganic elements are very important traits in plants. Some of elements have causal effects on plant growth. Their effects on plant metabolism and therefore quality and quantity of essential oils is crucial. Thus, to obtain relatively good results, different parts of Rosa damascena Mill. genotypes were analyzed. Plants were collected from different provinces including Tehran, East ...
