Since Amaranth (AM) is one of the dye compounds which is harmful to human’s life its removal from industrial waste water would reduce their environmental impact and health effect. Copper nanoparticle (CuNP) is a simple and eco-friendly material which can be used to remove this pollutant. In this paper, copper nanoparticles were synthesized, for removal of AM dye. The experiments were designed b...

This paper describes a prototype system for attitude and heading determination. A L1-only GPS receiver is integrated with microelectromechanical gyroscopes, accelerometers and magnetometers. In contrast to a multi-antenna/multi-receiver GPS attitude determination system, this system uses a single antenna/single receiver configuration to derive standalone velocity and acceleration solutions from...

In this approach, a new voltammetric method for determination of norfloxacin was proposed with high sensitivity and wider detection linear range. The used voltammetric sensor was fabricated simply by coating a layer of graphene oxide (GO) and Nafion composited film on glassy carbon electrode. The advantage of proposed method was sensitive electrochemical response for norfloxacin, which was attr...

Trace amounts of thallium(I) can be determined using adsorptive cathodic stripping voltammetry in the presence of Xylenol Orange (XO). The reduction current of the thallium(I)-XO complex ion was measured by square-wave cathodic stripping voltammetry. The peak potential was at -0.44 V vs. Ag/AgCl. The effect of various parameters (pH, ligand concentration, accumulation potential and collection t...

Experimental MS response factors were measured for 36 different saturated and unsaturated volatile organic compounds (VOC) containing carbon, hydrogen and halogen atoms. Chemical structure was encoded using various molecular descriptors. A quantitative structure-property relationship model was established using the multiple linear regression models. The cross-validation ability of the created m...

The value of determining the slope of the histamine dose-response curve, in addition to the histamine provocation concentration producing a 20% reduction in FEV1 (PC20-FEV1), was assessed by analysis of histamine dose-response curves in 40 patients selected as having a wide range of increased non-specific bronchial responsiveness to inhaled histamine. The histamine dose-response curves were fou...

A three-sensor array consisting of a graphite-epoxy composite electrode (GEC), 4-carboxybenzo-18-crown-6-GEC and 4carboxybenzo-15-crown-5-GEC was employed for the simultaneous determination of Cd(II), Pb(II) and Hg(II) by differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV). Sensors were firstly studied for the determination of Hg(II); secondly, peak current responses confirmed that all sens...

A new chemically modified carbon paste electrode for cesium(I) ion determination based on potassium zinc hexacyanoferrate (PZHCF) as an ionophore was prepared. The electrode exhibits a Nernstian response for Cs(I) ions over a wide concentration range from 1 × 10 to 1 × 10 mol·L with a slope of 58 ± 0.5 mV·decade. It has a response time of about 35 s and can be used for a period of 3 months with...
