An enzyme electrode was developed using the enzyme sulfite oxidase (EC1.8.3.1) immobilized onto pig intestine. Hydrogen peroxide produced was monitored amperometrically. All experimental parameters such as pH, temperature, buffer constituent concentration, were thoroughly investigated and optimized when appropriate. The response to sulfite concentration was linear in the range 5.2´...

a new category of hybrid organic-inorganic zirconium phosphonate, zr[(o3pch2)2nc6h4co2h].2h2o was synthesized and the applicability of the prepared sorbent as an ion-exchanger for removal of ni2+, cu2+ and zn2+ from aqueous solutions was evaluated. the characterization of the synthesis product was done using tg-dtg, sem, xrd, ft-ir techniques. study of the sorption isotherms and its kinetic par...

A highly selective electrode for Bromide ion based on aza pyrilium derivative as an excellentionophore is described.The sensor exhibits a good linear response with a slope of ( 60±1 ) mV per decadeover the concentration range of ( 1×10-3 – 9×10-6 M ) , and a detection limit of ( 3×10-6 M ) of Bromideions .The electrode response is independent of pH in the range of(4.0 –9.5).Selectivity coeffici...

We present ion-by-ion cooling efficiencies for low-density gas. We use Cloudy (version 10.00) to estimate the cooling efficiencies for each ion of the first 30 elements (H–Zn) individually. We present results for gas temperatures between 104 and 108 K, assuming low densities and optically thin conditions. When nonequilibrium ionization plays a significant role the ionization states deviate from...

A magnetic nano-composite based on modified styren-maleic anhydride copolymer and Fe3O4 nano-particles was introduced as a new sorbent for solid-phase extraction and preconcentration of trace levels of silver ion from aqueous solutions. The size and morphology of the nano-sorbent were characterized via X-ray diffraction analysis, scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spect...

In present research work, anion exchange membranes based on quaternized polysulfone with ammonium cation moieties (QAPSF) were prepared by chloromethylation, amination and alkalization. The chloromethylated polysulfone were characterized by 1HNMR spectroscopy and functionalization degree was determined according to peak area integration. Ion transport properties (ionic conductivity, ion exchang...
