in this work, a procedure for preconcentration of cobalt using dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction (dllme) with the reagent 1-nitroso 2-naphtol as complexing reagent was developed. at ph 4, co(ii) was complexed with 1-nitroso 2-naphtol and extracted into the fine droplets formed when mixing chloroform (extraction solvent), ethanol (disperser solvent) and the sample solution. after extracti...

in this work, a procedure for preconcentration of silver using dispersive liquid–liquid microextraction with the reagent dithizone as complexing reagent was developed. at ph 2, silver ions are complexed with dithizone and extracted into the fine droplets formed when mixing carbon tetrachloride (extraction solvent), ethanol (disperser solvent) and the sample solution. after extraction, the phase...

Issues of water quality are a global problem with potentially devastating results in communities if microbial levels are not monitored and controlled effectively.This is especially true with the potential threat of bioterrorist contamination of water supplies.This study presents a method for quantifying microbial water pathogens by 5' nuclease real-time polymerase chain reaction analysis, thus ...

Self-propelled autonomous micromachines have recently been tasked to carry out various roles in real environments. In this study, we expose the microjets to various types of water that are present in the real world, examples include tap water, rain water, lake water and sea water, and we sought to investigate their behaviors under real world conditions. We observed that the viability and mobili...

Surface water reservoirs and aquifers are exposed to contamination by thousands of micropollutants from industrial, pharmaceutical, agricultural and natural origins. Most developed and developing countries implement a water-quality regulation programme to prevent contamination by such chemicals at illegal concentrations. Traditionally, analytical methods based on gas chromatography-mass spectro...

INTRODUCTION The study of the distribution of any variable in marine environment generally begins by a sampling experiment. Usually, the collection of samples follows a procedure, often fixed in advance, that takes into account the general distribution of the water masses for a given region. However, much attention may be devoted to the actual structure of the water column present below the shi...

introduction: resin composites are an important part of restorative treatment in modern dentistry. there are many trademarks available in iran market and physico-chemical properties of many of these resin composites are not evaluated yet. this study was carried out to evaluate the physico-chemical properties of four available resin composites and also to assess the effect of aging on their prop...

pollution as well as a major threat to the health of the citizens due to the advancement at human civilization, technology development, pesticides and chemical fertilizers application, the increasing exploitation of natural resources by the agricultural sector and the increasing usage of fossil energy. therefore, the aim of this study is evaluation of citizens’ attitude towards water and soil p...

objective: the world is currently facing with various problems including water and soil pollution as well as a major threat to the health of the citizens due to the advancement at human civilization, technology development, pesticides and chemical fertilizers application, the increasing exploitation of natural resources by the agricultural sector and the increasing usage of fossil energy. there...
