Marked activity of cobalt-activated acylase was found in the sera of 33 of 37 patients with acute toxic hepatitis due to poisoning with either amanita mushrooms or chemicals. The activity of the enzyme showed a positive correlation with that of serum transaminases, reached the highest levels on the patient's admission to hospital and within a few days fell rapidly to undetectable levels. Slight...

The complex formation and a liquid-liquid extraction in the cobalt(II) 4-(2thiazolylazo)resorcinol (TAR) 2,3,5-triphenyl-2H-tetrazolium chloride (TTC) water chloroform system was studied. The optimum extractionspectrophotometric conditions were found. The molar ratio of the reacting species was determined to be 1:2:1 (Co:TAR:TTC). The following equilibrium processes were quantitatively examined...

A simple and sensitive solid phase spectrophotometric method for the determination of cobalt is proposed based on the reaction between cobalt and xylenol orange (XO). The reaction product is fixed on the anionic exchanger resin sephadex QAE A-25 at pH= 5. The optical absorbance of the anionic gel like resin, packed in a 1.00 mm cell is directly measured at 588.0 nm. The linear range of calibrat...

A rapid flotation method for separation and enrichment of ultra trace amounts of copper(II), cadmium(II), nickel(II) and cobalt(II) ions from water samples is established. At pH 6.5 and with sodium dodecylsulfate used as a foaming reagent, Cu2+, Cd2+, Ni2+ and Co2+ were separated simultaneously with 2-aminocyclopentene-1-dithiocarboxylic acid (ACDA) added to 1 l of aqueous solution. The propose...

The synthesis, physicochemical properties and interactions with metal ions of three new reagents of the N-phenylthiosemicarbazone family, namely pyridoxal phenylthiosemicarbazone, 3-hydroxypyridine-2-aldehyde phenylthiosemicarbazone and 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(phenylthiosemicarbazone), as well as their ionization constants and the spectral features of their complexes with transition-element ca...

An alternative interface for flow injection-capillary electrophoresis based on electrokinetic injection is described. The interface basically consists of tubular platinum and a commercially available standard tee connector. The tubular platinum works as not only an electrode, but also a waste outlet of a split sample solution. The availability of the proposed interface is evaluated by the separ...

Investigation of the redox properties of drugs and their determination are performed by electrochemical techniques. Data obtained from electrochemical techniques are often correlated with molecular structure and pharmacological activity of drugs. In this regard, different modified electrodes were applied as sensors for quantification of different drugs.A nanocomposite of reduced graphene oxide-...

The evolution and the current trends in a new area of chemistry of organometalloporphyrins, in metalloporphyrin chemistry are reviewed. Synthesis and properties of out of plane, di—nuclear, and "Skewered" metalloporphyrins are described. The new chemistry of metalloporphyrins was initiated by the application of Cr(CO)6, metal carbonyl in general, for insertion of Cr ion (metal ions) into por— p...
